||" Damien Troy "||I had a sheepish grin on my face that I tried to keep off my face as I watched the gift Kristen got for me in astonishment, it was wow. A first.I have met many, if not countless women, and I have taken them on a shopping spree too but I have never gotten a gift from any of them, well apart from Lucia."Why did you get me this, Kristen?" I asked,"Why? Don't you like it?" She mumbled looking unsure,"No, I mean I do, I like it, it's so beautiful,"/I muttered, " It's just that it's…" My voice trailed off,"It's what?" She asked,"Don't ask, Kristen, but thank you so much, I really like it a lot," I muttered honestly,She nodded and pack the rest of the things she got and folded them away, but I could tell that her eyes hadn't left my body since, I knew she still wanted to ask about what I wanted to say earlier, I really wished she didn't dwell on the topic and stop asking.The more I thought about the fact that aside from Lucia that she has been the only one to buy
||" Damien Troy "||The guard I had left to take care of Kristen when she went shopping arrived with the driver and a doctor.At first, I spotted the guard, he looked frightened and I didn't know why he was just doing a job he got paid for. Then I spotted the doctor, he was dressed in a white shirt and black slacks. I hurried to go meet him, "Welcome, Doctor," I mumbled,"Thank you, and you are?""I am Damien, I am the one who asked for you and the patient, she is inside," I said,"Well then, please take me to her," He said and I led him to the room, I had placed Kristen on the rug after I had dressed her up while I waited for the doctor to arrive and lifted one of her legs and placed it on a stool, so that her leg will be on the same level with her heart but when we got to the room she wasn't lying on the rug again, she was seated faced down on the couch.I looked at the doctor and the guard that had followed me inside, "Kristen you shouldn't be sitting up like this, you literally ju
||" Kristen Stewart "||Watching Damien dash out of the room, I couldn't help but feel like the walls that I had built around me to protect and keep me strong came crumbling down all at once.He acted like that just because the doctor suggested that the reason that I am so fatigued might be because I am pregnant. The doctor didn't even confirm it yet, he was only speculating that, but Damien reacted like he just found out I have STDs. I felt disgusted with myself.What was I thinking?I already know I am pregnant, what the doctor said wasn't news to me, I already knew my own problem. I also already knew where Damien stood with pregnancy, exactly why I didn't intend to tell him about it, but seeing him act like that made me so sad and left me with such a disappointing void that I didn't understand why.There is no way I was expecting that Damien's reaction will be different from the reaction he just projected, is there? I would be a clown to think such, I thought but the silent pang of
||" Damien Troy "||I was angry, I felt betrayed and at the same time, I felt lied to and I hated that so much. I hated how I felt so powerless right now, I hated the fact I felt betrayed and hurt by Kristen.I hated all the questions running through my mind.If she is pregnant, there was a possibility that I am the father of the child and if by any means I am not the father, then that will mean she was having sex with someone else while having sex with me.But I took her virginity, then does that mean she slept with other people after I broke her virginity or what?It didn't make sense to me and I knew I wouldn't know what the truth will be until I confronted her, but now she was sleeping so peacefully, so beautifully.She didn't look feisty, didn't have that stubborn streak that seats on her face every time she makes an argument. She looked serene, I could watch her sleep forever.Somehow in the dark corners of my mind, I wished- I truly wished the pregnancy was mine, if it wasn't m
||" Kristen Stewart "||I almost felt bad at myself for being so harsh after I saw the defeated look on Damien's face. I almost spoke up and apologised to him for being rude and harsh. After all, he was only trying to be nice to me, but I couldn't.If I apologise to him, I wouldn't be able to say all the things I want to say to him later, we need to talk, him being all nice and caring towards me isn't giving me enough room to think things through and I hated that. Which is why I got so defensive towards him.I am pregnant with his child and I am sure he must have suspected that, I mean if he didn't at least suspect that the child I am carrying belongs to him, why else did he dash out of the room yesterday, and today he is suddenly acting nice and caring.What the fuck?"We have arrived, sir," The driver that drove us announced and Damien turned to look at me, I could tell he was contemplating if he should help me or not, he was nervous about my reaction.I scoffed at that, because jok
||" Damien Troy "||"I will answer you but you have to respond to me first," She sighed before continuing, "Why did you suddenly become so nice to me?"I huffed at that question, I knew she was going to ask that, it's a question I might have asked if I was in her shoes too, and I had also asked this question to myself too.Why did I suddenly feel protective towards her?Why did I feel a sickening feeling of jealousy when she wouldn't accept my offer to help her inside but allowed Biros, a guard who I paid for his services to help her instead?When Jason had come to drop her off at the airport, the anger I was feeling wasn't just anger, that anger was jealousy. I had felt jealous of Jason and the way I had gotten defensive with Grey…it was so obvious, I was being protective of her.When the doctor announced that she might have been pregnant yesterday, it was like a sudden realisation struck me and it was all too much for me and that was why I left.Then later I got to find out that ano
||" Kristen Stewart "||"Finally!" I grunted as I dip myself inside the warm bath. We were returning home, our schedule was done and we were returning home tomorrow night which means our flight home will arrive by morning.Today Damien finalised his meeting with his Russian client and is currently out with his friends. The four friends I had met sometime during the week.I am so delighted that I am finally going home, I miss my mother so much, I miss Sky and even Jason and also I couldn't wait to show them the gift I had gotten for them.After spending time in the bathroom for a while I stepped out, dried up and went straight to bed, thankfully I had already packed, so I needed to sleep or maybe watch a series or two and then sleep during the flight. It would be one or the other.Anyway I got dressed and picked up my phone to head to the living room, so I could enjoy the peace of being alone and maybe I can invite Boris to come to hang out with me, I will be leaving tomorrow, and bein
||" Damien Troy "||Rest?" I asked after I felt her sobs quiet down against me, Kristen agreed, resting her forehead on my chest, “I will look after you, hey?”“Of course,” Kristen agrees, and I take her to sit back down on her, slightly dazed. “Come on, babe let’s go to bed.”Kristen nods, she still looked stunned.I kissed her temple again, and ran my thumb over her cheek, "Are you prepared to leave tomorrow?"“Right. Yes, tomorrow,” Kristen says, struggling into the oversized tee shirt I present her with. “Looks good," She added,"I got it for you, I thought it will look good on you," I said,"Thank you, I like it," She sighed, she looked tired and very emotionally exhausted and it made me sad that I was one of the causes of that exhaustion. "Damien, you said I should look at you right and not the painting of you in my heart, right?""Yes, I said that,""That means you want me to place my trust in you and give you a second chance and an actual benefit of the doubt?" She asked,"Wel
||" Kristen Stewart "||A Week Later•"Where did you go? I didn't see you throughout the morning, you weren't at the staff meeting either and you weren't picking up your calls?" I berated Sky who just strode into my office,"Chill out girl or woman." She giggled and I frowned even more, "Okay, my apologies. I was at the station, I was called there to give further statements on Lucia, and also Jason wanted to see me,""Oh,""Yeah. He asked me to set up a meeting with you…"No, thanks." I blurted out,"He wants to apologize for real this time, I definitely wouldn't force you to meet him of course but if you wanted to meet him," Sky sighed, "I wouldn't let you meet up with him alone.""I know that," I clarified, "I know all that but I'm not joking either when I said I don't want to meet him. He had asked Damien to fix us a meeting too and I still turned it down. I have already forgiven him, let's just keep it at that.There is no reason for us to meet and talk.""Okay, I get it. Your wis
||" Damien Troy "||"Kristen…?" Jason called, the look on his face careening,"No need to call her Jason, you too are part of this problem," I muttered, "You lied against her, she is your friend but you lied against her.""So what?" He snapped, "What if I lied? You say this is my fault but I put it to you that the fault is you! You fucking dumb Damien. I've waited years for that girl but just when I was ready, you showed up from nowhere and took over what rightfully belongs to me, I could ruin you where you stand Damien, but I'm not going to, you don't deserve to get ruined by my hands,"I scoffed, "Are you done throwing your tantrums?""What the fu…?""Jason, very bold of you to think that you are so smart," I smirked, then walked over to the cabinet that sits beside the TV stand and pulled out a folder. The folder contains all the information that The Four gathered about Jason's life over the years, especially his life in Dubai, his life before he left for Dubai, and even his intent
||" Kristen Stewart "||I glimmered with satisfaction the moment the doctor was ushered into the room by Sky.Everything would be exposed so how could I not be excited? I was worried for Damien but I knew he would be okay. It was hard drugs but I also noticed that he had been perspiring lightly, probably his body was already recovering from the drugs and was causing it to secrete sweat.It would cause him to be hydrated when he woke up though but it was a good thing.The doctor moved near and took his fingers and held them up, she then took a needle and pricked it just close to his nails, she took the bliss and put it on the container before placing it into what looked like a microscope of some sort.But I knew it wasn't a microscope though, probably a testing kit. She really came prepared.Anyway, I watched her meddle with the kit for about ten minutes before her eyes lit up, and she quickly looked up and rushed over to Mr. Troy."Sir there is content of high drugs in his system and
||" Sky Davis "||Of course, Damien had been drugged, that had to be the only explanation for his state right now. Even if he was a heavy sleeper, after the almost heated argument that has taken place in the living room, he would have at least stirred awake."You drugged him?" Kristen repeated the question,Lucia looked panicked, hell even Jason had the same panicked expression on his face, did he know about this too?"I can't help but wonder what his father whom you thankfully called would think when he knows you drugged his son," Kristen let out a pained chuckle,"Shut up! You don't know what you are talking about," Lucia drawled,"Oh please, it's obvious you drugged him. Damien would never have had sex with you when he knew I was just doors away," I spoke up,"You have been here all along?" Jason asked and I shrugged."How long has he been out? Don't you think we should call a doctor?" Kristen implored, "He was already stressed and you drugged him just to get him to have sex with y
||" Kristen Stewart "||I got lost in my thoughts after reading Sky's text message, she texted to inform me about Damien's return to the house, who according to Sky was accompanied by Lucia, along with some text I found rather offensive and discriminating.Those words involve my pregnancy and that pissed me the fuck up.Like you can say shits you want about me, but the nerves and the boldness to involve my pregnancy.Like what the actual fuck?!!I really hated that. I hated so many things, but accusing me wrongly was on top of that list and it turns out that was the crime they had decided to use against me. Well, bad idea, because I won't let it slide and I have a habit of exposing people that lie against me.From what I heard, one of those people happens to be this slimy bastard who I already regret the fact that I once had a crush on, a stupid crush and I definitely regret it.I will expose the truth, all of it, and not just for Damien who Sky says that he still trusts me but becaus
||" Damien Troy "||"I don't believe those photoshopped pictures you are showing to me, if this is the reason why Jason left, just to prove such an unnecessary point that I'll like you to tell him that he failed." I retorted even though deep down I was literally panicking.I had left Kristen in the house, and I told her to wait for me, I know I have stayed out later than I intended, but Kristen isn't the time to go rock her body with Jason just because I hadn't returned home.But what is the possibility that Kristen is still at home at this moment?"Son, if you are that trusting of her then maybe you should call her," Father suggested, it was a nice idea but the outcome isn't plausible because I have been ignoring her calls too and Kristen might just get angry and refuse to pick my calls either.But I still took out my phone and called her anyway, it would be good if she doesn't pick up and even better if she picks, I thought as I dialed her number but unfortunately, the outcome was n
||" Kristen Stewart "||"He is still not back, Sky," I said, mortified as I returned back to the living room for the umpteenth time."You need to calm down, Kristen. Panicking like this isn't good for your condition, same with you pacing around like this." Sky berated, "For all we know, maybe he is just busy with the father. Didn't you say that he went to see his father? Maybe his father has sent him on errands. Come and sit down, you called for me to come to keep you company but you aren't paying attention to me.""Sorry, I'm so sorry,' I mused, "I just feel so unsettled, I don't know why too. But my gut feelings are telling me something is wrong.""And maybe your gut feelings are right, but they could also be wrong." Sky said, "And truthfully, even if something was wrong, there is nothing you would be able to do about it right now. Just calm down okay? I am here, everything will be alright."I nodded, then slumped on the couch, even though my instincts were going haywire, I tried ha
||" Damien Troy "||I tried to conceal the curious and excited look on my face as I drove back to the house with Kristen. It didn't help that she was holding onto my hands, the action was both domesticated and surprising. It was the first time she has done acts like that."Sorry, I had to call you over so urgently," I uttered as we drove."Shh," Kristen whispered while doing her hand gesture of me shutting up, "I am enjoying the silence. We will talk when we are home and just for the record, I am not angry at all. I'm glad you called me."I nodded because I understood the feeling of what she was saying, I felt the same emotions too, I felt good that she was here all through this.I felt justified.We drove quietly, and something kind of made me realize that we were definitely going to skip work today. I don't know what Kristen wanted to talk to me about but it sounded serious and by the way, her hand was sweaty while she held my hands showed that she was nervous too.What did she want
||" Kristen Stewart "||"You should come inside," Damien said and I nodded and stepped inside the house. I tried not to succumb to the feelings of panic in my heart, whatever the problem is, I will find out when I step inside the house, and hopefully, we will find a way around it.I just hoped it was another case of a woman having a miscarriage because of Damien, I wouldn't know how to handle a situation like that."Sit down, let me get you something to drink," Damien said and walked towards the direction of his kitchen. I noticed someone else was sitting down on the couch, a woman, she seemed familiar, so apparently, this is really about a woman.I didn't know how to feel about that.But I was already here, so I have to face whatever it is either way."Hi," I said as I walked past the lady to take a seat, I still haven't looked at her yet,"Hi," She said, I knew that voice. Doraemon? Or Lucia rather, I thought as I turned to look at her, and true to my thoughts it was really her. Wha
