Bella got to the bus station and boarded a bus, she would go very far away, as far away as possible. She had stopped at the salon and dyed her hair black, she wanted to start life afresh and did not want to recognize her nor link her to the past. This was the second time she was running away from her city because of a scandal and hopefully, this would be the last time.It was getting dark already as she settled herself in her seat, she touched her stomach, "I will protect you with everything that I have" she whispered fiercely as the bus slowly began to move She stared at the city one last time, part of her knew that she was leaving the love of her life behind and part of her would always be with him, that part died with him.She thought about her friend Brittany, she was getting closer to the day she would put to birth and Bella was supposed to be the godmother but alas! She would not be available to see her friend's child when she put to birth and she would never see her friend aga
Bella and Vivian's bond became so close that they could be passed off as sisters.Months went by and Bella's pregnancy was becoming pronounced, although, Mr. Fedor and Vivian were curious about what happened to her and the child's father, they made no mention of it to Bella and did their best to alleviate any stress for her.Bella woke up at dawn and decided to go on a sea ride with Mr Fedor's boat, she loves early morning boat rides.Despite being heavy with a child, it did nothing to dampen her habit of going out early morning on a boat ride."The tides are high and not pleasing for a boat ride" Mr Fedor informed her, "I'll advise you not to go out on a ride today"But Bella has been craving for it and she decided to go, she will not stay out there too long, just a few minutes and she will be back home Bella smiled as she went on her boat ride, the tides were just a little bit high but she could handle it"You see baby, I miss your Dad, I miss him a lot, I feel like he is just on t
Daniel stared at the paid girl sleeping beside him in his suite, he had been so drunk last night, he couldn't remember exactly what happened, he had seen the girl in his drunken state and for a moment he had thought it was Bella, Bella, how he missed his wife. The girl has the same blond hair just like Bella and is of the same height, in his haze, he had brought her to his suite, all the while, seeing Bella's face in hers. Seth rolled on his back as he stared at the sleeping stranger on his bed, now that he was sober, he could see that she looked nothing like Bella, the only similarity was the hair.Daniel has come to realize that Bella is never coming back, she must have moved on wherever she is, he was supposed to be moving on too, why the hell was he still thinking about her? He was going to divorce her anyway and she would go out of his life, so, why does it hurt that she left him? He tapped the girl sleeping on his bed and she moaned, opening her eyes, she blinked brown eyes at
Bella named her children Nicole and Nikolai, she decided to name them after their father, after all, they were all she had left of him.Nikolai was so much like his father and anytime she looked at him, she always thought of Daniel, these little pieces of him that were with her would not let her to forget him easilyNicole was petite and did fall sick from time to time, hence, making Bella to give her a special kind of attention.Jason proved to be a true friend when she put to bed, he bought a lot of gifts for her babies. Shoes, diapers, milk, clothes, one would think that he was their father.Although Bella told him to stop buying so much for them, he would always insist as he had gotten fond of her kids.Since the day that she had turned him down, he had not insisted on having a relationship with her again, they were cool to be just casual friends.Bella kept selling her fish and always worked hard to provide for her babies.One day, she was playing with her babies just outside her
Bella was called to school by Niko and Nikky's teacher, she was shocked that her son could raise his hand in another but was more curious about his reason, Niko was like his father in everything, he didn't just do something without a reason and she was sure the boy he had punched must have done something to him.But she asked to apologize so that they could go, she would ask him his reason for punching that boy later and tell him that violence is not the best option to solve issues"Niko, come in, apologize to Warren" To her surprise, her son just stood there without uttering a sound, he kept looking down and drawing invisible lines on the ground. Was her son going to disobey her?"Niko" she made her voice firmer"That's not fair, why do I have to apologize when he was the one who started it?" He quipped"You have to apologize because violence is not the solution to a problem, you should not have hit him""Niko did it because of me, Warren was saying that we do not have a Daddy and la
Bella paced in the hospital lobby, tears forming in her eyes, she wouldn't be able to take it if anything happened to her child"Mom, will Nikky be okay?" Niko asked from her side and she stared at her son and hugged him close to her"I believe so Niko, I won't be able to bear it if anything happens to you or Nikky, the two of you are my life"Nikky had always been a very fragile child from birth hence, Bella always paid special attention to her but in a few years as she was growing, she hadn't had any health issues for a while and Bella thought that her child was finally okay.Sometimes, she regrets not telling Daniel about her pregnancy but she has been so scared that he would take them away from her. At least they will be living a better life and not this life of always lacking something at home that she had to offer them. if only her children knew that their father was a billionaire and she had made them suffer this much, they might just not forgive herBella sighted Jason coming
Bella felt as if the ground had been snatched from under her, there must be a coincidence in the name of the hospital,"Do you mean Jenny Memorial in Venni City? She choked out and Dr Sam stared at her"I am glad that you already know the place, if you want your child to be there, it must be as early as possible".Bella thought back to the doctor's words as she arranged their clothes in a bag, they were going back to the city she ran away from, back to the city where she was scandalized and stoned, back to where she was once abused but more importantly, back to the place where Daniel Calvin resides.She wondered if it was possible that she would enter the city without him knowing, how would he react when he saw her? Was he still angry with her? What will happen if he gets to know about Niko and Nikky? He had always been hot-tempered and she could imagine his reaction already, he would try to take them away from her.Her stomach quivered with this thought and she shook it off, she was
Daniel couldn't stop thinking about his encounter with Bella, she was now a mother, birthing another man's baby.He wondered who that man was that was able to win her over very fast.His first reaction when he saw her was happiness, he was going to apologize for how he treated her back then but he changed his mind when he saw her with kids.His mind went to the little boy, he had eyes exactly like Bella's, he felt wistful and imagined that the boy was his.That Bella moved on so quickly was proof that she never loved him enough.His mood turned sour and he hated it that Bella suddenly showed up.**The surgery took hours and Bella sat apprehensively with Niko on the chair waiting for news of Nikky. Niko was already asleep on her lap when the doctor came and told her that the surgery was successful and Nikky had been wheeled into the ICU.She was not allowed to go inside the ICU so she just stared at her daughter's tiny frame through the glass.She didn't want to leave but she still
