MICHAEL'S POV

He knew he was wrong before he came downstairs for dinner that night.

They ate in silence that night, with everything in him in inner turmoil for not apologizing to her about his outburst.

He was being unreasonable, even he knew that. But when he had found out that she had been searching all around for a job, he had been livid. He quickly put some calls through to stall any idea of her working in her condition. Did he feel any remorse about what he did, no. Because he had a right to the baby as well and working in her condition was going to endanger the life of his unborn child.

Micheal frowned in confusion.

But she assumed he must have been in his room sleeping. He must have come in when she had been sleeping last night."Am sorry for rushing over so soon but I had to come as soon as I heard." Her mother said pulling off her coat and hanging it on the rack.She frowned in confusion."What do you mean? What did you hear?" She asked."Didn't Micheal call you?" She asked incredulously.She shrugged his shoulder. They hadn't been on speaking terms since their last argument.Her mother arched a brow up at her, folding her arms on her hips."Don't make me regret asking you this. But what is goin

    MICHAEL'S POVHe yelled out in pain as his insides burned."You did good Micheal. Just keep pushing through" Jeff said checking off things on his checkboard.The drugs in your system are going to help detoxify your insides so when you go into surgery, it will give a good edge to getting the tumor ejected.He roared in pain. The tips of his toes and fingers were cold. He shivered in pain. His body trembled as his body fought against the drugs. Turning on his side, he reached for the bucket under his bed and retched out the contents from his churning stomach."That's good. You just have to continue for a few more days and you'll be good and prepped for surgery.""This feels like death" He complained, closing his eyes and trying to calm the pounding headache he was currently nursing.Jeff chuckled."Far from it buddy. There's hope. So long as you diligently show up for your sessions, you'll be free to go." Jeff reassured.He nodded weakly with his eyes still closed.He just lay there una

Her mother said with hurt evident on her face."Mum please" She pleaded, unable to stop the tears that trickled down her eyes.Her mother threw her hands up and down in exasperation."How would you feel if you were in my shoes? Would you be able to get over this?"She sighed."Alina you of all people know what had transpired between your father and I and I never in a million years dreamed that you would get married just for my sake and get pregnant while you're at it and still be living in his house! It's unbelievable. I don't understand kids nowadays. They take important and life-changing things as trivial" her mother complained."And here I was thinking that my son had fallen in love with you " His mother interjected. She froze when both of them turned glaring eyes towards her. She cleared her throat, picked up her handbag, and exited, leaving Alina to deal with the mess."Mum

She corrected.The older woman staring at her accusingly, dragged her glasses down to the crook of her nose eyeing her skeptically."What did you say?" She questioned."It's Miss Ma'am. Am divorced" she explained.The woman nodded reluctantly and stared back at the piece of paper that held all the necessary information."Am sorry to ask but how do you expect to work in your condition?" The woman questioned.Her eyes darted around for the answer, her palms were sweaty and she tried to recall all she had rehearsed right before the interview."Seeing as the offer for the job was for a clerk officer that would require me the limited amount of movement and stress that someone in my condition can pull off. My pregnancy will not be a problem ma'am" she replied enthusiastically."Yes, I can see that.

After all, she was not going to forgive him anytime soon. So they stayed at complete loggerheads until Paulina showed up again."Let me in! He knows who I am. Don't touch me!" He heard her yell as the new security guard he had hired tried to block her path to the house."I'm sorry ma'am I was given strict orders not to let you into the premises anymore. I'm sorry, am just doing my job" he said apologetically. He pulled up at the gate in his Lamborghini, watching with satisfaction as she struggled to get past him while he drove past her and into the house."Hello sir" The security guard greeted, sending questioning glances toward him but he waved her off just as the gate closed."Micheal! You can't just leave me here! Am carrying your child!" She screeched.He got out of his car with a triumphant smile playing
