Trey suddenly bursts into laughter. I stare at him, completely thrown off. What the hell am I dealing with here?

His laugh is almost manic like he's unraveling

"It's nothing that bad," he finally says, shaking his head as if trying to convince himself. "I can't believe I'm reacting like this."

I blink at him, not buying it. "What do you mean? Just go straight to the point, Trey. You're acting weird, and it's starting to freak me out."

He sighs, rubbing a hand down his face. "You know, when I was doing it, I didn’t think it would mess with me like this." His voice cracks slightly, and then, he laughs again. "Fuck. I don't even understand myself."

"Trey, seriously. What did you do?" I demand, my patience wearing thin.

He exhales and looks at me. "Okay, okay. I didn’t do anything bad, and I think I might be overreacting about the whole thing. I’m being dramatic."

I nod, urging him to keep going.

"I slept with someone I shouldn’t have."

My stomach drops. For a second, I just sta

Now i kind of hope that Rita wasn’t ever loyal to Eric and even that child isn’t Eric’s . Can it happen ?

Rita did say that she hoped Mina lost everything including Trey so that’s why she did it thinking Mina and Trey were in a relationship and she wanted to hurt Mina. ....... I hope this comes out to Eric. I can’t wait. Now Mina can really get revenge if she wants to.

    I’m still shaking my head, staring at Trey, hoping—praying—this is one of his twisted jokes. That he’s playing a trick on me. That at any moment, he’s going to smirk and say, Gotcha, Mina.But he doesn’t.He just sighs, rubbing his face with his hands like he wants to erase the last twenty-four hours."Is this a joke?" I finally ask, my voice barely above a whisper.He looks up at me, seriously. "No. No, it’s not a joke." His voice is low, almost ashamed. "It happened, okay? I slept with your younger sister...."" My ex-younger sister—" I am quick to correct."Eric’s wife," he interjects bitterly."Your friend's wife," I whisper, my voice thick with disbelief. "She's pregnant, Trey. She's carrying his baby."He lets out a humourless laugh and runs a hand through his already messy hair. "I know all of that, Mina.""Do you?" My voice rises. "Do you?! Because if you really knew that, then you wou

    By now, I have to cut him off. "Okay, stop! Wait a minute. I don't want to hear how you did it or where you did it. Fuck it. Trey.""Yeah, that's the gist of what happened." He Answers unbothered by my statement.I can't believe this. I keep saying to myself, but he continues."So, then by nine, She wakes up gets dressed and tells me She better hurry on before Eric wakes up and doesn’t find her. Kisses me and leaves the hotel in a hurry. So I don’t think anything about it.""You don’t think anything about it, Trey? Are you serious? You slept with somebody else's wife, a married woman, and you don’t think about it?""Hey, why are you so mad at me for, Mina?" Trey asks, his tone exasperated. "I mean, I'm not the one who's married. I'm not the one who promised my life and my faithfulness to somebody. I don't have a girlfriend. I don't have a wife. I'm not committed to anybody. Why are you so mad at me? Why aren't you mad at me, Rita? Why are you mad at me?"I can't believe this. I keep r

    "Listen to me, Trey. Just because Rita is a cheater doesn't mean your mom was.""But she did cheat, didn't she? She cheated on my father.""And she told you that she was sorry. If your father knew, it means that she was honest. She confessed And she apologized to your father, and they moved on. I really think if you find it in yourself to forgive her. I know it won't be easy. It won't be quick. Do it at your own pace.""But I feel like I'm like her, Mina. After what I did, what's the difference between her and me? And Eric is my friend. I'm the worst human on earth, Nina.""Okay, let me tell you something. I know you're sad. And you've been wallowing in your own feelings for quite a while. So, why don't we do something to get your mind off it? Come on. Just get bathed. Get dressed. Let's go to work. It'll take your mind off it. I even promise to go to a club with you.

    Trey doesn’t come back to work.By the time I close up—which, as always, makes me the last person out—I head upstairs and find him drinking.I take the glass from his hand. "So, what does this mean? You already look like you’re halfway to wasted, and we agreed we were going out tonight. So what is this?""I don’t feel like going out tonight," he mutters. "Why don’t we just order in?"I sigh. "Alright, fine. What do you want to eat?""I don’t know. Maybe pizza? I don’t know. Whatever you want to get.""Okay, I’ll order Chinese. Is that okay with you?""Yeah, whatever."I roll my eyes and order the food, then go take a shower. When I come back, I find him knocked out on the couch.The food arrives, and we sit in silence, eating on the couches while an action movie plays. There’s nothing to say—nothing that hasn’t already been said.Then he finally speaks. "Eric left me an email. Eric wrote me an

    Frustrated, I watch as Trey grabs the ice pack and storms toward the door, limping slightly. "Do whatever you want," he mutters. "I’m going to bed."I can’t believe him.And then it hits me. Emerson.I grab my phone and dial. He picks up after two rings, his voice sleepy. "Hey baby, you miss me already? Want me to come over? I knew Trayson was a bore.""Stop it, Emerson. This is serious."He picks up on the urgency in my voice immediately. "What is it?""It’s Eric. Something happened. He went home. Mad." My heart is pounding. "And given Rita’s condition, I’m afraid he might hurt her. I need you to go over there. Just—please—make sure everything is okay."There’s silence."Emerson? Can you hear me?""Yeah, I hear you." A pause. "And why do you care so much?"I squeeze my eyes shut. "Because if Eric kills Rita, what do you think is gonna happen?! Just go there, okay?""What is this about, what happened?""Just go, Emmerson!"Another pause. Then finally: "Okay, okay. I’m going. Just tell

    I woke up the next day in such a good mood.I wake up early. I even go to Trey's gym in the house. Just, you know, try and do a few sit-up laps or something. I am in such a great mood. I look at myself in the mirror in the gym and, yeah, I think I'm developing a little pouch. Gotta work on that.And my tits are getting bigger, which is good I guess, but I gotta get rid of this pouch. And my thighs... I think Trey was right, I'm getting a little fat. I'm gonna have to hop on that and start working out, I guess.I'll try to get Trey when he's coming to the gym and he can give me a few workouts to do or, I don't know, I can start running again. Yeah, maybe this is all because I haven't been running for a long time, I should start running again.I go back into the living room and decide to prepare breakfast, but then I find Trey is already there. He has iPods in his ears. He is humming as he's preparing breakfast.I go in and walk towards the kitchen island, tap a few times to get his att

    "Oh my God! Rita, are you okay?" I asked with worry,I stood up from my seat, the concern rushing through me before I could even think. I wanted to go to her, to hug her, to tell her it was okay. I just wanted to know if she was fine. But the way she raised her hand to stop me—the way she sneered—froze me in my tracks."What? You're going to pretend that you care? You're going to pretend that seeing me like this actually hurts you? Oh please," she sneered. "You’ve probably been praying for this. You’ve probably been waiting for something like this to happen to me."Her words hit like a slap, but she wasn’t done."I remember what you said when we met at the park—that Eric was violent. You couldn't wait for him to be violent with me too, could you?""What? Rita, I'm just concerned about you. How are you? Are you okay?"She scoffed. "Are you pretending to care because Trey is here? Do you think you can actually help your case by acting like a good person? Sorry for you, but that ship ha

    “Are you breaking up with me, Trey?” Rita’s voice pitched higher, full of disbelief.“I’m not breaking up with you because we were never together, to begin with.”“Then what was all that?” Her voice grew louder, more frantic. “The way you flirted with me, the way you used to compliment me, the way you and I were so intertwined with each other. The way we fucked... You can’t tell me that you didn’t feel it.”Trey was silent for a moment before answering. “You’re right. We didn’t make love. We fucked. We had sex. It’s done. I regret it. Now it’s over. I would really advise you to start focusing on your marriage right now.”The room went silent for a few seconds, and I leaned closer, straining to hear what they were saying.Then, I heard Rita’s voice, screeching in fury.“Are you fucking kidding me, Trey? Are you stupid?”I winced.“My marriage is gone. My marriage is over. Eric doesn’t want to fucking see me. He told me that the next time he sees me, he’s going to kill me. I signed a pr

    She looked at me with that twisted, dark smile, the one that told me she thought she had won. As if she had accomplished exactly what she came here to do. But she was still standing in my room, still breathing the same air as me, still existing in my space, and I couldn’t take it. The anger, the pain, the years of resentment came over me. My voice came out in a scream, raw and filled with fury. "Get out! Get out, get out, get out!" The door burst open. A nurse rushed in, followed closely by Trey. His eyes darted between me and my mother, concern into his face. "What’s going on?" he demanded. "Mina, what happened?" I pointed a shaking hand at Kristy. "I don’t want to see this woman ever again in my life!" My voice was hoarse, but I didn’t care. "I’ll get a restraining order if I have to. If I ever see you again, I swear I will make you regret it." The words cut through the air.

    She looked at me for a long moment before speaking again."I am willing to give you another chance." She announced.A surprised cough escaped my lips. "A chance?" I repeated, narrowing my eyes. "A chance to do what, exactly?""A chance to prove that you have wished no ill for your sister," she said firmly. "To prove that you actually are part of this family."A disbelieving chuckle slipped past my lips, but my mother didn’t flinch. She pressed on as if she truly believed she held all the power in this conversation."You’re going to call Eric," she continued. "You’re going to tell him that everything that happened with Trey was wrong. You're going to talk to Trey and convince him to tell Eric that maybe he was lying. Just… find something. Make up anything. But make sure that Eric calls Rita, apologizes, and takes your sister back home where she belongs."She said it as if the matter was settled as if she had the final say.

    By the time we turned back towards the room, we noticed that the doctor had already left. I guess there had been too much crying in the room. I found myself laughing. "I'm so happy, Emerson." He grinned, his excitement evident. "I'm even happier. You don’t know how I’m feeling right now. I want to—" He let out a breathless laugh. "I want to dance. I want to jump with joy. I want to scream it from the top of this building. I'm going to be a dad, Mina!" "And I'm going to be a mom," I said, my voice breaking as fresh tears welled in my eyes. Emerson's expression softened. "Oh my God, why are you still crying? I don’t think it’s good for the baby to cry so much." "I know," I sniffled, wiping my eyes. "I’m going to try. I really am. But I don’t know how to stop—I’m just so happy." At that moment, my stomach let out a loud rumble. Emerson chuckled. "Looks like our baby is hu

    The doctor’s expression remained calm. “Did you drink every day?”I shook my head quickly. “No, not every day. Just occasionally.”Guilt flooded me. “Oh my God, I’m so sorry. I—I didn’t know I was pregnant.” My voice cracked, and the tears returned, burning the back of my eyes.The doctor placed a hand on my shoulder, squeezing gently. “Mina, it’s okay. You didn’t know.”I hiccupped on a sob. “But what if I—”“Listen to me,” she interrupted firmly, “You and the baby are healthy. Tomorrow, we’ll do a full examination, and so far, everything looks good. The important thing is that you know now. And because you know, I trust that you’ll take better care of yourself from here on out.”I sniffled, nodding, still feeling the weight of my mistakes.“But I need you to stop panicking, Mina,” she continued. “Stress will raise your blood pressure, and that’s not good for the baby. Right now, I just need you to focus on resting and

    I just sat there, staring at Emmerson. My tongue felt heavy like it was weighed down by all that I couldn’t bring myself to say.“Come on, what is it?” Emerson urged, his voice softer now, careful. “Tell me whatever it is. We can go through it together.”But there was fear in his eyes. A fear that told me he was bracing himself for the worst.I opened my mouth, but no words came out.Before I could even attempt to find them, Trey spoke up. “We’re still waiting for the results. There hasn’t been a concrete answer yet.”Emerson exhaled, his shoulders losing a fraction of their tension. “What do you mean, concrete answer? What did the doctor say? What could it be?”“It’s fine,” I said quickly, nodding as I squeezed his hand. “Just wait for the results.”He looked at me, then at our intertwined fingers, and for some reason, my hands were trembling.Then he turned to Trey. “Treyson, can I talk to you aside for a minute?”Panic spiked in my chest. I clutched Emerson’s hand tighter. “No.

    Trey looked at me, his expression unreadable, but there was something in his eyes—sympathy, maybe even sadness. His voice was quiet when he spoke again.“You’re pregnant, Mina.”I stared at him. The words didn’t make sense. They bounced around in my head, refusing to settle.“It’s not possible,” I said, a hollow laugh escaping my lips. It carried no joy, only confusion. “What are you saying, Trey? I can’t be pregnant. I… It’s impossible, okay?”I didn’t even know what I was saying anymore. My mind scrambled for explanations, for reasons..... This couldn't be true.Trey didn’t argue. He simply took my hand and placed it gently on the bed between us. His grip is grounding.“The doctors just confirmed it. You’re a hundred per cent pregnant.”“But how?” I whispered, shaking my head violently, as if denying it hard enough would make it untrue. If I accepted it if I let this idea take root in my mind, only for it to be ripped away later… I wouldn’t survive that. I couldn't.“They’re wrong,

    I exhaled and looked at him. "Eric, you're just a bad human being. You slept with my sister, got her pregnant, and you were about to marry her. And not once did I attack you. Not once did I go to the papers and say, 'I broke up with Eric Blackwind because he slept with my sister.' That would have made headlines. I could have made a lot of money from your Betrayal. But I didn’t."I shook my head, disbelief coursing through me. "But the minute you found out I was with Emerson, you—" I scoffed. "You acted like I had committed murder... As if I had done something that deserved a death sentence. You acted like the real person that, deep down, you really are."Eric bowed his head, his voice barely a whisper. "I'm sorry. I know I'm not a good person. I'm selfish and arrogant. I'm all those things. I'm evil. I am all that you accuse me of and more"His fingers curled into fists, his jaw tightening before he spoke again. "And you know I didn’t want to divorce you.

    "You!" Rita’s voice sliced through the air like a dagger, her finger trembling as she pointed at me. "This is all your fault!" She accused, her voice filled with bitterness.I blinked, frozen. "What did I do?""You did this to me!" she screamed, her face filled with rage. "You turned Trey against me! And now you’re turning Eric against me too! You’re turning everyone against me!" She cried bitterly.I stared at her in shock and disbelief. "Are you serious?"Her chest heaved. "It was always you. Always you!" she spat. "Mom always complaining about you. Dad would always talk about how smart you were, and how nice you were. It was always Mina this, Mina that! It was almost like I was invisible."Oh. So that’s what this was about.I exhaled sharply, shaking my head. "So this is about our childhood?" I asked, arching a brow. "About how you felt ignored while mom never spared me a glance? Did we have the same childhood? Mom adores you.

    "Don't say that," Rita cried, her voice cracking with desperation. "Please, don't say that."Eric’s face remained cold, without any emotion. "You destroyed my life." His words were sharp, cutting through the air. "You told me you loved me. You promised me a family because you knew how much I loved talking about having a baby of my own, about having a family. But you? You were never who you pretended to be."Rita shook her head violently. "No, Eric, please—""What were you after, really?" Eric went on, his voice filled with disdain. "Always speaking ill of Mina behind her back, always trying to turn me against her. Now I see your true colours. I don’t know if it’s the hate you have for her or if it’s the money you were after. Because you spent more money than Mina ever did while we started dating until we got married, you spent ten times more. And I let you—because I wanted you to be happy. But to realize this about you now....?"His jaw clenched as he exhaled."No, Eric, stop saying t
