Samantha pov'sI slowly opened my eyes, and with the strong light coming from the ceiling, I closed them quickly until I got used to the brightness. I took a deep breath and looked around trying to identify where I was, and by the white ceiling and some devices on the side I deduced to be in the hospital and then small flashes appeared in my mind.FLASHBACK ONA strong pain at the bottom of my stomach made me sit on the bed and close my eyes due to the pain I felt at the time. I ran my hand over my forehead and noticed how wet I was with sweat, I got up slowly and the stitch came back making me groan, I walked close to the door and turned on the light and when I looked down I saw a thin layer of blood go down my right leg, I looked at the bed and the same there was a bloodstain there. My breathing started to accelerate and I opened the door with everything going to my room to get my cell phone. I looked for him at the head of the bed, on the nightstand and nothing... tears flowed down

Samantha pov'sJordan was sleeping crookedly in his chair, and I still didn't sleep at all, even though I'd been sedated by the nurse, I slept for two hours and then woke up. Since then I've been here, trying to think of everything that's happening in my life, thinking from the beginning of everything, from the discovery of the pregnancy, and even everything looking like it was resolved with this damn marriage, nothing works, the path just seems to narrow more and more.I close my eyes for a few minutes and imagine my life trodden by three paths. I am single and childless, single and with a child and married with a child. I imagine each of the three, in the smallest detail, but what stuck most was me being a mother, woman and loved one. I didn't want to think about that possibility, but after what happened, what he did for me and the baby and everything he said, this idiocy doesn't get out of my head for nothing. I don't want to feel things for him, I don't want to fall in love, I onl

Samantha pov'sHe was still standing in the doorway watching me. I bit my bottom lip, trying to find a reaction. The atmosphere was strange, not the strange one when we fought, it was of a different kind... “Jordan? What is it?” I decided to break the silence."You took so long, so I thought something had happened." he said vaguely."Everything is fine. I was just talking to the baby.” I said low smiling and he laughed."Like this? They can't hear…or can they?” he asked in confusion."Yes they can, they feel any reaction from the mother, what happens around them and it's always recommended to relax and talk to them." I said looking at my belly and smoothing it over the towel."Interesting. Can I play?” he asked and I was surprised."You can." I said softly and he approached. Jordan stopped in front of me and touched the top of the towel. I just bit my lip."Could you take the towel off?" I really want to play. I was speechless at his question."I don't think so." I said nervously.“Sa

Samantha pov'sToday I turned three months and one week old. I could feel a small difference in my body, but nothing that would draw attention. I was skinny, I had practically no belly and sometimes I even doubted that I was really having a child. After the scare I had a few weeks ago, certain things started to take a different path and, I confess, I'm surprising myself.Jordan is trying to change some things, to fulfill what he promised me. He has been present at certain times and every once in a while asked about the baby. Whoever advised him, they did a great job and I can only say thank you for that.Yesterday I had a visit from my father, Jordan was not here. For the first time in my life, I felt completely uncomfortable with him, with someone I loved so dearly. Maybe it was because of the things he had said to me, the way he forced me to marry him, I don't know but, is it wrong to stop loving someone who has your blood? Your parent? I tried to be as natural as possible with him,

"Sam?” I hear his voice from the other side of the door, but I ignore it.He doesn't have that goddamn right to say whatever he wants, and then come here with a straight face and talk to me."Listen to me please, I only ask you for a minute." says again, I take a deep breath and walk to the door, but I don't open it."What do you want Jordan?" I say leaning against the wall."Can you open that damn door? I want to look at you.” he says and I give a snarky laugh."For what? Look at me, while throwing your shit in my face, just to see how bad I look?" I throw at him."Damn Sam, that's not it! Can you hear me, then you decide what you think is best." I bite my lips and take a deep breath, but I end up doing what he asked. Jordan was shirtless, with wet hair, a sign that he had taken a shower and soon after, he came here to talk to me. He's a bastard, he came that way just to take my focus away... I look into his face and see how tired he is, see the frustration seeping out of him."Satis

Jordan's sister was his opposite.She was sweet, fun and friendly.In recent weeks we have begun to closer, she's been like a second sister to me, just like Becca is my first.Having other women around makes me feel good and I can talk openly with them without worrying.Jordan is a little distant, but whenever there is time left from whatever he does, he talks to me, asks if I need anything and then disappears. According to his sister, college is killing him, mainly because it is the last year of his course.I can't complain about the lack of attention (because lately I'm so needy, it's unbearable), After all, we have nothing."What do you want?” I look at the blonde girl in front of me."It could be a strawberry milkshake." I tell her.My then sister-in-law invited me to go for a walk and, of course, I didn't refuse. I haven't been out in a while, I just stayed inside that apartment, looking at nothing. We were at a diner near the house, making small talk."And then? How has my broth

The next morning I prepared a very strong coffee, because my hunger had tripled and it wasn't just any little thing that satisfied me. I made chocolate waffles, bacon and eggs, the good old cereal and I couldn't miss my strawberry smoothie.When I was almost finished, the door opened and Jordan walked through it, he didn't sleep at home last night and I can already imagine where he was yesterday."Good morning Sam.” he says when he notices my presence, approaching and placing a kiss on my forehead."Good morning. You want? There are even chocolate waffles." I say and he nods as he sits down next to me."Thanks, I really needed it. I barely ate last night." he says and I notice the deep circles under his eyes. I get up and go to the kitchen getting a cup and putting coffee for him and taking it to him."Take it here, it will help a little." I say while handing him the cup.He looks at me for a few seconds and, saying nothing, smiles sideways and shakes his head. I sit down again and to

As I gaped at the monitor screen and at Patrick, I felt Jordan's hand slip from mine. My heart was a thousand an hour, after all, I was only waiting for a baby, in the last two ultrasounds I had done, only a single fetus appeared, nothing of a second.I looked at the father of this... These children that I'm having, and he was literally white, pale, looked like he was going to pass out any moment in that room."How come twins? Two? But Patrick, but…” I sat down on the gurney and tried to come up with a train of thought."Two? Holy shit.” Jordan walked over and sat next to me, I touched her hand and, she was super cold."Is everything okay?” I ask softly and he takes a deep breath and looks at me.“I'm just, I'm just surprised.” he says."Patrick" I turn my gaze to him, and he watches me "How is that possible? Can you explain it to us?” He nods."Jordan needs you to get up please, and Sam needs to lie down again. So I'll show better and explain." he says and we agree.As soon as I lay d

I could only feel the impact of my body on each step, but when I reached the end of the stairs, the blow to my head was strong enough to make me dizzy, and my eyes went dark, I could only hear voices around me, screams and nothing else. The pain I felt was so great that it left me in a complete daze, my arms didn't move at all and I wanted to touch my belly, to know that my little ones were okay, that everything would be fine. But I couldn't even do that, my voice wouldn't come out and my consciousness was almost gone. "Sam?" I heard someone's voice calling me, but it was so far away, my body was starting to float. "Oh my God! It's really Sam." someone else shouted. I felt cold hands touching me and I couldn't tell who it was, I forced my eyes open but they wouldn't open, I just wanted to cry and scream. "Someone call the ambulance" I hear a female voice "No Jordan, don't move her, it's dangerous," I hear a familiar voice and I try to move. "She can't stay like this, look at her

Jordan was beaming. He made a point of showing me his smile all the time and his eyes sparkled so much. I was proud of him, of what he had done. I could see Jeremy completely surprised, happy and full of pride for his eldest son and it warmed my heart. With Susan, my mother-in-law, it was no different because her eyes were watering with so much happiness with everything that had been done there. People couldn't stop talking, praising, having fun and of course, the auctions that were taking place in the halls of that mansion were sensational because everyone was buying and contributing. While my dear husband was talking to several businesspeople, I decided to walk a little around the area, which by the way was very crowded, I don't know where so many businesspeople came from. I smiled to myself and continued my walk, until from afar I saw a scene that was a bit, let's say compromising and quite interesting. My brother and sister-in-law were in a corner a little isolated from the othe

Third Person POV: The following weeks flew by; Sam entered the second week towards the end of her pregnancy. The young woman was eager for the birth of her children, and nothing would hinder her happiness. Jordan was always present, and seeing that his partner was doing well in the final stretch comforted his heart. However, knowing that the big day of the charity event for the family company was just two days away disturbed him. He wanted to earn his parents' pride, his father's approval for the profession he wanted to pursue, and despite the fear, he would fight for it until the end. Samantha stood in front of the mirror, examining her body and the changes it underwent during pregnancy. Her belly was enormous, and it had lowered a bit. She noticed fine stretch marks on her skin and took a deep breath, giving herself the best smile. She wouldn't be discouraged by that; after all, despite not romanticizing pregnancy and knowing everything she had been through, Sam felt good. After a

Emma was sitting next to me, while sighing in love with the guy she had met, but she didn't want to tell me his name. According to her, nothing is certain yet and she didn't want to be disappointed and leave others looking on with pity. I understand that she wants to avoid the possibility of disappointment and the look of pity that, according to her, she would receive from her friends and family. Sometimes, people keep their passions a secret until they are more sure about the relationship, which was partly the case with me and your brother and this is sometimes a form of emotional protection, but we still end up getting hurt, I believe that Getting hurt in a relationship is part of everything and every process, what you don't accept is being despised and mistreated or even having the person as an emotional attachment, this screws with our insides. Ultimately, as her friend, I will respect her privacy and give her the support she needs, regardless of the decisions she makes regarding

Even after being discharged from the hospital, I knew I had to do my best to assist with the final details of the company's charity event. Even though the pressure from Jordan and my mother-in-law to rest was understandable, I felt determined and compelled to contribute in the best way possible given the circumstances. I carefully planned my day, prioritizing a balance between rest and work. I decided to do my work in small intervals, avoiding overexertion and ensuring that I could still rest. I worked focusing on the most crucial details of the event. I used my notebook extensively to facilitate my searches and task management. Before we knew it, we had successfully completed the preparations to ensure the event's success, for Jordan, and for his father to see that he was good at what he did. Our commitment to the event was unwavering. We discussed how we could divide the tasks in a way that wouldn't be too demanding for both of us, considering my recovery and well-being. Jordan an

Once again, I found myself in a hospital bed. It seems to have become a sort of karma in my life, and it's truly frustrating. The twins were almost born prematurely, but we made it to the hospital in time, and everything was under control. At this moment, I was resting, under observation for 48 hours, until everything was stable, and I could go home. Jordan, as always, never left my side, not even when Emma or Sean asked him to. He has been an anchor through all these moments. I know he feels guilty, not just for the drastic start to our marriage, but because of Jessica. Mostly her. Despite the mistakes, I know her illness is not his fault, as during their initial involvement, she already showed symptoms, but they never took the time to seek information. Even though Jessica did that, I don't blame her either. I have resentments, fears, and yet she is not to blame for the illness she has. Her bipolar disorder is terrible, and she never imagined she had it and would need treatment. I

I close my eyes as I taste the risotto that Jordan talked about so much and it was delicious. That would definitely be the starter dish, no argument."Is that the one?" asks the blonde next to me."No doubt! Madam, can you bring us the next dishes so we can choose the main one." I say and the lady with well-groomed gray hair smiles and leaves towards the kitchen.Minutes later I see several waiters bringing all kinds of food, making my mouth water."Try this one Sam." says Jordan and I open my mouth and bite into a piece of fillet.The meat was juicy and tender, it was just right. I let out an involuntary moan and my husband laughed at me."Sorry Mrs. Edith, but it's delicious." I say and she smiles."Imagine dear, you can feel free. I know very well how our body works and tastes during pregnancy." I smiled gratefully at her at the same moment.The next thing was grilled chicken breast, with rice and mashed potatoes, and there I was, dying in love with all that food.[...]Hours later

I didn't even know what it was like to sleep normally, babies moved too much and that caused me a lot of pain, at times. Apart from that I had put on a lot of weight, and my feet were twice the size, no sandals fit anymore and my clothes then, not to mention.
