Sandy's POV

Oh, my God!

Anthony just kissed my neck. He pinned me to his car. He made me feel his body more than once! My heart was racing more than ever! This was not happening! It had to be a dream.

This date had started with a spiral of nervousness after I wore the dress and it had been the sexiest thing I had ever put on around him. The dress had left me wondering what he would think but my heart crashed into my gut when I saw a nonchalant look on his face, even throughout dinner with him, he didn't act like I was dressed so differently around him. All he cared about was if we were being followed.

Anthony hadn't said one word since we started driving home and I was in a way glad because I didn't want to say anything to embarrass myself. The only thing that filled the confinement of the car was the soft music playing on the radio.

I sighed and my phone vibrated in my purse. I had a feeling it was Trent and that put a smile on my face. I could remember how charming he sounded when w

    Sandy’s POV I was numb at the information given to me. My heart felt like it was pierced with a sharp knife at the words that had come out of her mouth. My lungs tightened and my heart hammered fast and loud. I swallowed down the tension forming in my throat and backed away from Anthony and the nurse. Slowly, I raised my hand to my mouth, covering it as I felt the urge to scream out in pain and anguish. “Here are the results,” the nurse said, handing over some envelopes to Anthony.I turned away and sat down on the chair we had been sitting on. I rested my elbows close to my knees and held the sides of my head. I kept my head bowed as I tried to control the pain in my chest. I lost my baby because of a false report. My baby was gone because of a mistake. At that, I sat up, remembering why I decided to do this. I marched over to where Anthony was standing and grabbed the envelopes from him. “What are we going to do now?” Anthony asked. “I'm shocked by this and–”“I am suing them,

    Sandy’s POV I sniffled for the umpteenth time that evening as I stared into space. I was drained, exhausted and tired. My body hurt from laying on shards of ceramic for hours yet it could not compare to the pain I was feeling in my heart.“I should have waited,” I said again. I have lost count of how long I have said those words since I found out I was cancer-free. I blamed myself for making a hasty decision. I should have waited and at least started the first phase of the treatment before aborting the child. Maybe I could still be pregnant now that I knew the cancer result was false.Something clicked. In that moment, my depressive moment faded. I sat up with a hiss and rose to my feet. I walked over to the bed and sat on the edge, thinking.“The first hospital said that they had a mix up with the result. They most likely took someone else's sample as mine. That someone is the one with the cancer and… it came about the wrong result,” I said, thinking more. “Their mistake was forgiv

    Sandy’s POV I was feeling numb every second that ticked by. My hands and feet were cold, my mouth had an odd taste, my heart was beating slow. I felt sick, almost nauseous. Nothing made sense to me at that moment. I felt as if I had lost so much in the past few days.I lost my baby because of the sudden sickness in me. A sickness I wasn't sure of even surviving. Since the diagnosis by the doctor, I have done my research and the treatment was something that wasn't going to be easy. It was harsh and I saw reasons why I had to abort the baby.I sighed and forced my depressive thoughts away from my head and curled myself under the blanket. I closed my eyes, hoping that I could fall asleep even if it was for five minutes and praying to God that I don't have any more nightmares.Some minutes had gone by and sleep had not come. I opened my eyes and looked around me, taking in the things in the room. I still couldn't sleep. My brain was too awake, filled with too many thoughts of how, what i

    Anthony’s POV“Thank you, doctor,” I said and turned away then left the office.With slow steps, I walked through the hallway, head full and heart heavy. I still felt like I was dreaming. Nothing made sense to me because one moment, Sandy was fine and the next, she was sick with a terminal illness.All these years, I have enjoyed life with her and now that I was married to her, now that I have fallen in love with her and got to know what love felt like, I was going to have a short time with her.Surviving cancer was a slim chance. Sandy having cervical cancer was the cruelest thing ever, especially when she was carrying our baby.Why was my life this way? Why did my life turn out to be unfortunate?I stopped in my tracks when I remembered she had run out here. I raised my head and looked around the bustling lobby. I looked at every waiting seat and peered at the people around. Sandy was nowhere in sight which left fear in me.“Sandy?” I called out.I walked toward the entrance of the

    Sandy’s POV “Baby?”I blinked, forcing myself out of the deep thoughts I was in to look in the direction of Anthony.It had been two days since we arrived in New Jersey and today was the day we would meet Gina's uncle. Since the day we moved into our new apartment, I have not been at peace mentally. All I could think about was my condition, my marriage, and my baby. I was scared of what the doctors would say. Scared of the doctor saying my condition was bad, scared of not surviving.My parents have been calling, checking in on me and so far, it was the only thing that I was holding onto to keep my mind at peace. Gina, my parents and Anthony were the only ones giving me hope and I was going to use it as much as I could to keep myself sane so that I wasn't going to lose my mind.“I'm here, remember?” Anthony said and cupped the back of my head. “We'll be fine. Don't think so much.”I smiled with my lips tightly pressed together, trying to force a happy expression and feeling. I knew he

Sweat was pouring out of my pores despite the air conditioning unit blowing cold air in the room, a sudden headache hit my head and my brain was blank, empty and had no will to build any thoughts.I tried to read the words on the screen over and over again but I couldn't.
