Austins POVI am worried about what was happening to Rebecca. It was my first time to see her so weak. I wanted to take her to the hospital, but she had refused. She had promised to call me after every one hour, but now several hours had passed without me hearing from her.I decide to call her, just to be certain she is ok. I will never forgive myself if something bad happened to her. She is my life and I really cannot do without her. She is everything to me.Rebecca – My love.Me – baby, what is taking you so long to answer me. I am so worried right now. What is going on?Rebecca – sorry, babe. I am out of the hospital. I will see you in a short while.Me – What have the doctors said?Rebecca – I will inform you when I get there, darling.I am a bit relaxed now that I know she is alright. I can focus on my work now as I wait for her to get here. Likewise, I feel somehow nervous about the results of her tests. Something did not feel right, and I just could not wait for her to get here.
Rebecca's POVFinally my heart settled. I was happy and contented by Austins decision. Together, we were going to start our small family. We were going to be happy together. I hope nothing will come between us.After work, just like we had said, we go together to my apartment and collect my things. We later moved in to the house and started our wonderful journey together.* * * * * *Life has been a little easy with him by my side. We have been living together for over two months now. I have been really lazy as my pregnancy was progressing, but so far, so good, I could say. I was happy, and everyday I really thanked the heavens for sending Austin my way. Now with this tiny human in my belly, I could not ask for more.Today I woke up feeling exhausted. Mornings were always so hard for me. I would struggle to go to work. Austin was the one who prepared breakfast every single day. I think he was pampering me too much. Occasionally, I felt sorry for him. He was really doing so much for me
Austins POV.My prank seemed like it had worked. I have been preparing for this day for over two weeks now. That is why I insisted that Rebecca should start staying at home from today. Actually, I was happy when she agreed with me. That is why I had managed to plan all this, including paying the man who had called her earlier. I feared that the news about having been seen with another girl would make her lose her mind. But I was glad when I saw her arriving at the club. She was so angry and disappointed, that showed how much she loved me. I loved every bit of it. “Rebecca. Will you marry me.” I said immediately as she had started to leave. She turns and looks at me in disbelief. “What are you saying, Austin. How can you marry me when you have some other girl at your table? What do you think of me?” She says so angrily. It is clear she was not taking this lightly.“I am not his girl. Can't you see how serious he is? I just helped him get you here.” The lady says, and Rebecca's face l
Carlos POVI had lost all hope of ever having Rebecca again in my life. After the funeral, she had avoided me completely. No matter how much I tried to bump on her, Austin made it impossible for me to see her. It is almost a year now since I saw her. In the office, I have been banned from going in there. No matter how I try, the gate man never allows me to walk inside. The last option was to call Olivia. We agreed she will come over to my house. I waited for her as I cooked my lunch. It will not be nice if she came here and left on an empty stomach.I hear a knock and I rush to open the door. I have never thought I would call her. I spent all most one year just staring at her card, but finally, I made up my mind that is why she was standing on m.door right now.“Come in.” I say to her.“Thank you. Actually, I have waited for this call for an eternity. What took you so long.” She asks right away, before even sitting down. “I had some issues that I needed to settle first. Thank you f
Austin's POVEverything was finally in its place. Today was the day I was taking her to see my parents. I just hope they will love her. I haven't told her yet, but I don't want it to be a surprise either. So, it was better if I kept her to light because this was a serious matter.“Babe. I called my parents yesterday.” I brought the subject up when we were still in bed. It was still early and being a Saturday, I would not go to work today. So, it was a perfect day for us to go over to my parents' house.“What did they say, darling.” She asks.“I told them we will be going today.” I say. “Today. I mean, we are going together, me and you?” She asks.“Yeah. I want to introduce you to my parents. So, we will be going over there today. Or don't you want that, darling.” I asked her.“I want that. But you could have told me sooner, babe. I could have prepared myself. I don't know what to wear. Furthermore, I would like to look presentable in front of them.” She says as she gets up and heads
Rebecca's POV.The fear I had in me is finally gone after Austins parents fully accepted me. We were now heading home. I feel so exhausted considering all the energy I had used in the morning. But all in all, it was worth it. I am at ease now, and I know I will be happy with Austin forever. This time, love chose me. I was finally going to settle down with the man I loved.“What did my mom tell you, Darling.” Austin asks immediately we enter our house. “Nothing, babe. She is just happy we are together. She also gave me tips on how to take care of myself during this pregnancy period.” I say.* * * * * * *The last few days have been really busy for us. We had already arranged our wedding date and only one day remained until the wedding day. I was the most excited bride in the world. It was a dream come true, and I just could not believe it. Finally, things were falling into its place. We had already selected the venue. We had printed cards and already had distributed them to a few peop
Austins POV.It was over at last. The day we have been waiting for with all our being. Rebecca was mine legally now. My wife and the mother of my unborn baby. I am relaxed now, no one is ever going to separate the two of us. Not even Carlos, who had tried to separate us to no avail. I guess he had given up because it has been a while I saw or heard of him. Rebecca seemed to have forgotten about him too. He was a closed chapter in our life. We were now heading over to our honeymoon. It was so late. The party ended up late and so Rebecca was obviously tired. Considering her condition, I could see she was dozing off. She looked so pretty today and there was no doubt that I made the right choice in choosing her. She was the best, and I know I will be happy with her by my side. “Let me hold you, darling.” I say to her as I adjust myself to make her comfortable. Since we had a driver taking us to our honeymoon hotel, we took the back seat. “Thank you, baby. I am tired. But it was such a
Austins POV.We were now on our way back home. Our one-week honeymoon was over. We had so much great fun. I have never been so happy. “I can't believe it is over, baby. I had so much fun.” Rebecca says to me while we were in our car heading home. “Don't worry, baby. We will be going on a vacation more often.” I promised her. I just hope I will be able to keep her happy for the rest of our days. We get home and put our things in order. She looked tired but happy. I am glad she liked every surprise I planned for her. She was the best.* * * * * * * * * *Rebecca's POVFive months now and I was already six months pregnant. Things have been somehow tough for me, but since Austin was on my side, things have been a bit easier. He helped me when I needed him the most. My belly was growing with each passing day. I had already made my first ultrasound, but I had not yet known the gender of my baby since it was still so tiny. But I was hoping that my baby would be a girl, but it was differen
Rebecca POVThe DNA of us and our baby matched, and we were allowed to go home with our baby. It was a relief to both of us, and we decided to throw a party for our baby's welcome.The trouble had ended for us. It was time to be happy and just enjoy my love with Austin. Olivia and Carlos were both in prison now, and they will never bother us again. We invited both our families, and we had to prepare for the party since it was only two days from now.“Baby. What should I wear for the party.” I asked Austin. Things like these always made me anxious.“You will look beautiful in any outfit, Darling. Just trust yourself.” He says to me with a warm smile on his face. He was holding our baby while he was telling me this. Since the arrival of our baby, he has been spending more time with him than he was with me.“Baby. I feel jealous, you know.” I said to him with a frown on my face.”“Jealous. Why?" He asks so confused.“Yeah. You have been spending more time with Raphael than with me.” I sa
Carlos POV.The last few days were bad for me. Olivia and I had a case at the court and there was going to be a hearing today. The case was so serious since it involved a baby. We went into the court and I pled guilty to abducting a child from her mother just for my own selfish reason. Olivia tries to defend herself, but since there was so much evidence pointing to us, there was no way she could escape justice. At last we were sentenced to twenty years imprisonment. I cried a lot, but I knew I deserved this. Olivia was going to be taken to women's prison and I to men's prison. I know we will never see each other again until twenty years are over. That was really a long time. I don't think I will be able to recognize her after all that long.There was one thing to be happy though and that was Rebecca. She had decided to forgive me after all the things I did to her. I was happy that she had found her baby and that he was doing alright. I just wish her all the happiness in this world. I
Carlos POV.I try to run away, but the police catch up with me. I had made a big mistake in choosing to do that dirty work with Olivia. Now my life is totally ruined. This time I had lost Rebecca for good. I had done so much harm to her life. I totally regret what I had done to her. Stealing her baby was the worst. I will never forgive myself for that. I love her, yet I was the one who made her life so miserable. I admit she used to love me so much. I was the one who betrayed her by sleeping with her best friend. She moved on from me and I just could not accept that. It was time I corrected all my horrible mistakes. One way to do that was to tell her where her baby was.I was now in a police car. They were taking me to the police station. I know I deserve this, being locked up. I hope I will be a better person when I get locked up in jail. We reach the police station and I see Rebecca standing there looking so sad, and her face was swollen, probably from crying. She looked so unhapp
Rebecca's POVIt has been hell for me knowing I no longer have my baby beside me. I have struggled enough only to lose my baby in the hands of a jealous person I called my best friend. The person I called my friend was the one who hurt me the most in this world. She took what mattered to me the most, and that is my flesh and blood. My Raphael. I will never forgive her in this life.Today, when Austin informed me that the police had caught Olivia. I could not contain myself anymore. I get ready to go with him to the police station. All I wanted was for her to tell me where my baby was, and that is what I was going to ask her.We got into the car and headed to the police station. She was there seated being interrogated by the police. She sees me and our eyes meet. I could see she was smiling. She was happy that I was crying. “Well. Let's see who we have here. Mother of the year. Who could not take care of her tiny little baby. So, I took care of him instead. Now he is in a perfect plac
Austins POV.“Where is my baby. I cannot take this anymore.” Rebecca says. I was dressing her up, so we could go home. It was supposed to be a happy day for us, but it turned to be the saddest. She was weak right now, but the doctors advised me to take her home. Since being in the hospital won't bring her any good. “Don't worry, baby. We will find him soon.” I say to her.“When darling. It has been two days now and there are no signs of Olivia nor Carlos. I feel like I am running mad right now. Take me out of here, baby. Please. I just want to go home and rest.” She says.“Let's go Darling. I assure you that all things will be alright. You know I have never let you down. So trust me.” I said to her. I had to be a source of strength to her. I was all that she got right now. Likewise, I felt so weak and helpless as well, but I could just not show her how helpless I was. It will just make her feel weaker than she was already feeling right now. I carried her out of the hospital since sh
Austins POV.I am so restless in the hospital chair where I am waiting for the doctor to come tell me what was going on in the maternity room. My Rebecca was in their having a hard time. She was screaming so loud, and I could hear her from where I was sitting. I feel so bad that she was alone in this, but there was nothing I could do. Within two hours, I could not hear her screams anymore. I saw a doctor come out of the room, and I followed him immediately.“Doctor, how is my wife and baby.” I asked when I reach to him.“Don't worry. Relax, your wife is fine. Congratulations, you are now a father to a healthy, handsome baby boy.” The doctor says.“Really doctor. Thank you so much. Can I see her now.” I say with a bright smile on my face. The long wait is finally over. I just could not wait anymore. I wanted to see them so badly and my baby, I wanted to hold him and just kiss him.“Yes, but not now. Let's first shift her to another room, then you can see them. Just ten minutes from now
Carlos POVI cannot forget the scene where I met Rebecca and I found out she was pregnant. It was the worst day of my life. I never thought she will be pregnant this soon. I was more hurt on the day of their wedding. It was so private when I knew about it when they had already wed. I had lost her forever. Now that she is expecting a baby. It is over for me. I know they will be happy together now forever with their baby. I can't stop feeling jealous and hate towards her. I watch her get into the cab and leave. I feel tears in my eyes. She did not love me anymore. Another man was making her happy. I wish that man was me. I wanted to be her man. To take care of her and to be there for her always, but it seemed I had lost that chance. Forever this time because now she was already married, and she was about to become a mother. I just could not hold the news to myself anymore. I called Olivia immediately to disclose the news to her. “What. She is pregnant? That is why their wedding was so
Rebecca's POVIt has been nine months now. My belly is so big, and it was giving me a hard time. It was only a week to my due date, but I felt like I could not wait anymore. It was taking so long for the baby to be here. It was always harder during the nights. I was unable to find a suitable sleeping position and could not get sleepy. I spent most nights awake while Austin could sleep so peacefully beside me. Just like any other day, I am so sleepless this day. I look at Austin, and he is sleeping like a small baby. Furthermore, I feel like crying, how dare he do that to me every single day? I turn and turn, but no sleep. It was really getting out of hand. I get up to go and eat something in the kitchen. Actually, in this pregnancy, I eat everything I come across with. That was the most fun part about my pregnancy. I ate even the food I hated before.I walked slowly, so I could not wake Austin up. I understand that he got exhausted at the office, that is why he sleeps so much at nigh

I just hope I will be able to keep her happy for the rest of our days. We get home and put our things in order. She looked tired but happy. I am glad she liked every surprise I planned for her.
