Scarlett's POVI looked at the shirt in my hands again to be sure my sight did not fail me. What is this I have seen? I asked myself although it was very clear, written in block letters. My instinct laughed at me, it all seemed like it said, "I told you." "L_uke," I muttered his name, my gaze still fixed on the shirt. How can he do this to me? Is this some mistake? I asked, consoling myself with thoughts of what I have seen, being a mistake. A woman's lip gloss stain was boldly staring at me, it was on different places and sides of the clothing. For the first time since he returned from work, I perceived the fragrance of some perfume that is not mine.What the actual heck!"Luke!" I yelled, calmly, waiting for his presence in the kitchen. I waited for sometime and he did not show up. "Luke!" I screamed this time, throwing the clothes I came with, I turned off the washing machine, the Power Holding Company in New York withdrew the power, already. I was no longer in the mood to do s
Luke's POVI stirred and woke up around midnight to see myself, sleeping on the bare floor beside the bedroom door. How did I get here and what was I doing? I wondered while I got up to my feet. I was pressed from the drinks I had, the next thing I did was run to the bathroom, sit on the toilet and ease myself of the load in my stomach. I returned back to the room and Scarlett was missing. Where is she? I thought as I made a walk to the door of the room, I walked past the door and was headed to the living room when I saw her resting her head on the dining table.I stopped in my tracks, I didn't want her to see me and begin another round of questioning. I only looked at her from where I stood, avoiding making sounds that could wake her up with my legs. Silently, I tiptoed back into the room. I thought of what had happened before she left for the diner. Did she hit me? Did she cry? I shrugged off my thoughts and threw myself on the big bed this time, spreading my arms and legs widely
Luke's POVWe arrived back at the warehouse in less than one hour."How was it?" Boss asked, he was sleeping when we drove in and woke up after an hour. "Fine, boss," the other man answered, handing him the envelope we were given back at the client's house."Did the girl wake before you left?" He asked, sitting properly on the chair. Both of us shook our heads negatively, "no, sir," the other man said again and we were dismissed from the Boss's sight."I am hungry, I want to get something to eat," I told the rest of the men before hurrying to my car. I left in my car, alone, hurrying to a nearby restaurant to fill my stomach. I was too exhausted and hungry, I had eaten nothing before leaving the house and went on the mission on an empty stomach.I arrived at the restaurant, packed my car at the lot built for customers that have cars. I was inside the main building the next minute, craving for well prepared rice, maybe fried rice. I walked into the main room, the room was filled with
Amelia's POVDays turned into weeks and weeks into months. It has been two months since Ethan and I had sex and we went on with our lives like nothing really happened between us. The house itself became silent again, as silent as a graveyard. Thanks to Pamela who did a good job, keeping me company and helping out with the cleaning, as usual.It is her reason for being with us in the house, to work. My relationship with the young girl went from normal to abnormal, 'abnormal' is an understatement for my relationship with the young lady. What could have happened if I didn't have her with me in the mansion? Ethan's face is usually scarce unless during weekends. "How are you?" He had asked one morning. It was during the early hours of the morning when I got stirred and got up from the bed. I was tired, although I had slept the previous afternoon and the whole night."I should fix an appointment with the doctor," I told him, adjusting on the bed."Are you pregnant?" He asked, screaming h
Amelia's POVDays later, I threw up in the kitchen sink while I cooked with Pamela."Are you okay?" She screamed, standing to her feet from the chair she sat on, she rushed to my side and held me by my shoulder."Do you want water?" She asked when I said nothing in response to her question."I'm fine, Pamela," I quietly said, although I know I was not fine. I may be pregnant already, I told myself and sat on a chair."Don't say anything to Ethan," I made her promise."How am I sure you are even fine?" She asked, opposing me. "I am fine, Pamela," I promised her and she shook her head."I won't tell him," she ended up with a promise, "don't you think we should run a test on you?""What test?" I feigned innocence, even though I knew a test should be conducted, I was just too afraid to accept the fact.
Thessa's POV"I'm off to work, Tessa" Carl said one morning, he was dressed for his appointment with a certain small organization in the state."We should have a contract very soon," he praised, looking at himself in the mirror that hangs on the wall. He looked good in his outfit. I had bought the shirt at the boutique the last time I went shopping with some money from the allowance I receive from him every month."How good do I look?" He asked, returning to the bed to sit beside me. Just as I expected, I knew he would ask me this question."You look good, honey," I praised. We kissed shortly and he got back to his feet, smiling. "I would bring lunch to you at the office, I promised when he was at the door."He turned to stare at me with a look of surprise on his face. "Will you?" He asked. Did he not hear me the first time? I asked myself while I nodded, "yes, I will."&n
Amelia's POVThe feedback was given to Ethan the moment he got back home."Are you pregnant?" Was the first question he asked me. "Am I supposed to get the test results immediately?" I asked in reciprocation, "we should wait for sometime, maybe after my birthday before I can go back to get it."His nerves were calm after my words. "How was it at the office today?" I asked him, I have been looking for a possible means to change the topic the moment he came back and bombarded me with his questions.He nodded, obviously, he was not in the mood to have a chitchat, I, myself, was not in the mood for his questions.My birth date was rushing to show its face and for the first time, I realized I want to thank Ethan for what he has done for me, in a very small but classy way.What did he do for me? I asked myself at one point.Al
Amelia's POVEthan returned from work to hear the news of my pregnancy. It was just two weeks to my birthday and it felt so weird."Are you kidding?" He asked, looking at me. A grin was on his face and he burst out laughing the next moment. "Tell me you're serious," he pleaded and all I did was nod my head. "I'm pregnant," I added my words to make the scene a perfect one.He burst out laughing again before receiving the printed paper. "This is so true," he muttered, smiling. "Thank you," he told me this time, hugging me quickly and shortly."Thank you, too," I told him. He nodded and was on his side of the big bed again to sleep. "Can I keep this?" He asked before laying back on the bed. What do I need the envelope for? I asked myself, nodding my head at his request."Thank you," he greeted one more time before laying back to sleep. "Good morning," we greeted ourselves the next morning when we woke up. Life returned back to normal; Ethan went to his place of work. I, myself, continu
