QUIVA"Bro, what kind of question is that?!" Trev shouted to his brother.I can't stop the tears falling down my cheeks. My heart fucking hurts. His question hurts me. His words are like arrows shot right to my heart.My whole body is shaking. If I hadn't leaned over and held onto the sink, I might have fallen. I saw Trev looked at my hands. He saw them shaking too."Shhhh. Calm down, Q." He tried to calm me down. I was startled by Nicholas' loud shouting."Shit!" He cursed loudly then stormed out. I was sobbing."Nicholas?!" I tried to call him out, stopping him from leaving. But I know he didn't hear me. Even for me, my voice is very weak."Where is he going?" I asked Trev. I want to chase Nicholas but I'm so weak, I can't move my body. My insides are panicking but I can't move. I feel too weak.I felt Trev caressing my back. It calms me down. Gina was standing still. Also shocked with what's happening. She looked at Trev's side, I don't know what she signaled to him. She quickly we
QUIVA"What did he say? What did you say to him?" I wiped my tears and stood up. I saw the doubt in Trev's eyes.What he said repeated in my mind. Give him some time? Time again? Those words came from Trev but Nicholas words and voice echoed in my head. Like the way he said that to me when he found out that I knew that Trev was my fiance.He's asking for some time again. Damn it! It's always like this! He always waits for me! Anger built up inside me."What do you mean give him some time? What? He doesn't want our child? He couldn't accept he got me pregnant?!" I asked angrily. But a tear fell from my eye.I saw Gina tried to come close to me. She wanted to calm me down and was surprised by the sudden change in my emotions."Q, it's not like that." Trev said calmly."You don't need to sugarcoat your brother Trev. If he told you he doesn't want the baby, you can be honest to me. If he doesn't want her, we don't want him either." I said firmly. But deep insdie my heart was beating painf
QUIVA "He might be drinking right now, while thinking."It got me thinking. It's impossible there's no woman wherever he goes. He's attractive. A woman will probably approach him. Plus he's drinking."But don't worry there's no girls around. And I'll go check him and make sure that he's fine, so do rest now."My blood warmed up and I was agitated. What if he's entertaining a girl? Or the girls try to flirt with him. Criselda's words suddenly came to my mind. That's another thing that Nicholas and I didn't talk about because I didn't let him come and talk to me earlier.It's my fault why we didn't talk. We really need to talk. I don't know what to think anymore."I'll go with you." I said firmly."What?!" They asked in unison. They were immediately looking at me sharply."I want to talk to him." I said determined."No. It's getting late Q. And that's a bar, something might happen to you there. And we've talked about this, you two might fight. You can talk tomorrow. I'll talk to my br
Third P POV"Are you calm now?" Trev asked to his brother. He saw him drinking in a bar that they used to go to often. But when Nicholas started taking up the career as a professor, they rarely came here."Yeah." He exhaled. Trev gestured the bartender for a drink."Is she okay?" Nicholas asked, referring to Q. Now he realized how hurt she must be by his words."She cried and got a bit angry."He massaged his temple and bit his lip. Regretting what he said. And he regrets that he left like that and didn't talk to Q properly. But he couldn't go back. He's still confused."Actually, she wanted to come here with me, to talk to you." Nicholas turned to his brother. He got the courage to talk to her after hearing that. He stood up and was ready to go but before he could move his brother stop him."Where are you going?""I'll go and talk to her." Trev shook his head."Tomorrow bro. She must be resting now."He went back to his seat. Remembering Q's condition. She should be resting right now
QUIVA On the way to the hospital, my mind was filled thinking about my sister and Krist. They only left mind when my sister mentioned that her former doctor would also be my doctor."Female?" I asked."Yes.""That's good." I said. If its a guy doctor I won't go to get checked. I'll ask for another doctor. A girl doctor. It's just uncomfortable when it's a male. Won't he have to see me down there? I don't want to show whats down there even though his intention is purely health related."Does he know?" Sis asked. I didn't understood. "Huh?""Nicholas, does he know you're going to have a check-up today?""No." I answered quickly. I averted my face from them so they wouldn't see the sadness I was feeling."Gina told me you're planning to run away with your child." I immediately turned to her when she said that. "Run away?" I asked loudly, laughing a little because that was the term Gina used."It's not easy to raise a child alone Quiva." Her tone made me nervous. She sounds so serious."
QUIVA "Do you want me to come with you?" I immediately shook my head at my sister's question. I'm sure that's what Gina wanted to say. My sister only asked it first. "It's okay. I'll just ask Trev to drive me home---" I stopped. I don't know if Nicholas and I will be okay after this talk. Trev might not be able to take me home because he sprained his ankle. I'll just get a taxi."It's really fine. AA might be looking for you. Thank you, sis." She nodded and gave me a hug."Call me when there's a problem." She said worried. I nodded. I bid goodbye to Gina. I know she has problems with Krist too so I won't drag her to my problem."Text me." She said before she went inside my sister's car."What happened?" I greeted to Trev. He was walking around with a bandage wrapped around his ankle. He's wearing a pajama that I think belongs to Nicholas as well as the top he's wearing."Where's your brother?""He's in his room. Still sleeping." I frowned. Its already noon he's still asleep? It's al
QUIVA "What made you think I won't want our child? I want our baby. I don't just want our baby, I love our baby! I love them!" He even laughed at what he said. I glared at him slightly. He wants a twin."I will never reject our child. I'm so happy. We now have a baby." He said with a smile while looking intently at me. His eyes were shimmering as if he was about to cry.My heart melted. I don't know what to say. My tongue was cut off and I couldn't think of anything else. Only he's words."You don't know how happy I am." He alternately stare deeply into my eyes. "We have a baby." He said with a smile on his face but with tears in his eyes. Then he suddenly hugged me tight again. I couldn't move. His hug was so tight. I stayed silent. Feel his hug. I can feel the loud beating of his heart and the warmth of his body. I could feel his words deeply by the way he hugs me. I could feel he accepts my pregnancy. That he accepts our child.I heard him sniff lightly. Why I think that he was c
QUIVA"N-no! I don't want to!" I pushed his face away from me. I heard him groan. Right, his cheek hurts a bit."Just one.""Stop Nicholas!" I yell at him but I'll give in just a little more. I want a kiss too, but no! We might wouldn't be able to talk. And will just end up doing something else."Are you done talking? Can I go back to eating?" I jumped a little when I suddenly heard Trevor's voice. We can only see half of his body, he is peeking through the door.I didn't answer. I didn't also heard Nicholas speak. Trev then entered the kitchen and sat in his place earlier. Jane followed behind him and sat next to him. I saw Jane glance at me. I just glanced at her too.Nicholas went to the other side of the table, in front of me. Trev continued to eat what he was eating earlier. I took another bite of my pizza."Have you eaten lunch?" Nicholas asked. I didn't looked at him. I'm looking at Trev who's putting food in front of Jane. A slice of pizza, a plate, chicken and more.The two d
