Angela’s POV”Mail!”I was in the middle of sipping my favorite black coffee when I heard the mail man outside my door. It's been a stressful day for me since I pulled out all nighter because of my requirements for my major subject. As stressful as hell week may sound, I just have to go through the process since the final exam is coming. Huston University is such a dream for every college student, and yes, I'm currently admitted there. So who am I to complain about how hard college is? For me, I just want to focus on finishing my degree since I know how blessed I am to be a part of it. I stood up immediately to get the mail wondering what it was. I'm waiting for an important email so I'm quite enthusiastic about getting it. I picked up the white envelope on the steps outside my door and quickly ripped it open."Please settle your account so you will be able to take your final examination." I uttered, reading the letter from my university. My eyes scrolled automatically on the digits
Angel’s POVI spent the whole night doing my resume rather than doing my requirements for finals. I counted all the sheep but can't sleep thinking about this decision I'm making. It felt weird making the resume because I have no idea if I'm doing it correctly or not. Specialization? What should I put here? Bearing a child? Ugh! This is so frustrating. I just tried to fill it all up and tried to be honest to the best of my ability. I sleep thinking about the address given to me and without knowing what the future that lies ahead of me. I can feel the heaviness of my head and the bags under my eyes falling because of sleep deprivation. I couldn't even make an effort to fix myself because of how undecided I am If i shall go there and pass my resume or not. I received a message while I was brushing my hair. From Enoch:How have you been?I leave it on read and continue brushing my hair because I'm running out of time. I need to pass the resume before I go to my after lunch class. Ar
Andrew's POVI touched my lower lip as I didn't know how I would handle her if she replied. I stared at the screen of my phone and drank the tequila in one shot. I waited for seconds... minutes, yet I didn't get any reply from her. My jaw protruded as I felt the gushing stepped ego after what I just did. Fvck, I can't help it. I just sent her a million and still, I am the one who's nervous here?I can't believe that she'll really end up with that decision. I knew all along that she's having problems with her expenses and maintenance. And I had a lot of plans laid in front of me just so I could help her. But I end up with this one, I don't want her working for days and hours while studying. And I know I can just give her money or pay her tuition in one go and out of nowhere but that would be weird. Knowing her personality, she won't take anything from me. I knew her very well. Surrogacy. Does she really think that I would let her be a part of my company? Is she even that desperate t
I stared at myself in the mirror and calmed myself. In just a few minutes, I know I'll see the man I talked to last night. I know that no matter what decision I make, I still have no choice. Last night I was still trying to calm myself and convince myself to just give it a try and just wing everything but what was going to happen still didn't really sink into my brain.Just a few days ago I was just a college student cramming for requirements and exams and now, I’m having trouble figuring out what steps I’m going to take while that man is trying to get me pregnant.I closed my eyes tight and calmed myself before I pulled my shits up and decided to come back to the private room. I went straight in there but stopped immediately at the same time as my heart stopped beating.A man in a corporate suit and tie intently sitting in front of the chair I was sitting a while ago before I left. In the distance I could immediately see how its thick eyebrows met. His nose is on point and his skin i
I’m a believer. Our Sunday school teacher once told us that Satan used to be an angel. But for some reason, God punished him because he was so full of himself and had a shitty attitude. And now, I’m wondering if this man in front of me is Satan.He took care of me the whole dinner! He’s such a gentleman, but every time he opened his mouth, I wanted to just puke because of how rude he was. And so what is he? Is he used to be Satan?I chuckled unconsciously while staring at the table. I’m becoming crazy now, am I?We’re now done eating. The bill arrived, and he paid for it. I thought of offering to split it in half, but I couldn’t because the only money I have is the one he gave me. So does that make sense?I sighed as I saw him put some grands on the table. It’s obviously more than the total of our bill. He’s that rich. Is he a drug dealer or what? Where does he get that money from?"Are we done with the talking now?" He asked all of a sudden.I sat straight, more attentive now. He rai
Hugh's POVI drove fast not minding the hustle and chaos of the wide and busy road. I almost lost my soul as I saw how the vehicle in front of me suddenly popped out of nowhere.I shouted, "Fuck!"I decided to park my car for a while because my mind is restless. I bit my lips and palmed my face thinking about what had happen in that hotel. I repeatedly cursed at myself as I remembered how my lips touched to hers. I felt a mixture of frustration and obsession at the same time. I don't want her acting like that life as if she was an expert when it came to such things. She acts as if she is whore and a slut when in fact I know she's not. That's not what I wanted for her in the first place.I can't help but to get fussy. What the hell is wrong with her? What if she was signed up with someone else? For sure she'll be ending up naked in someone's bed! That's bullshit! I massaged the bridge of my nose trying to calm myself down, after a few seconds, I reached for my phone and tried to compos
People tend to get caught up into something which they really like. Well, at least at the beginning. Because you know what’s the reality? In the end, you love those things you don’t like. I wasn’t aware of what’s ahead of me. I badly need the money. I badly need something that can provide to make ends meet. I didn’t like what I just called my sell, a surrogate? It’s basically giving up my youth just so I can surpass my so called ‘youth’.This was my desperate move, but him acting like that on that night reminded me to get a hold of my self. That yes, I needed the money but I should not go down that low. So I decided to do this. I checked my phone thinking that somebody might have been texted me but there’s nothing. After I talked to Molly, it kinda felt like a tiny thorn had been removed inside of me. It makes me feel at ease knowing that my best friend knows it now. I thought she’ll say anything or preach me or anything but she just stayed silent and told me that she’ll talk to me
“Waitress !?” Molly yelled at me. I was shaken and my eyes almost glazed over because I expected her reaction to be like this.Why am I getting annoyed? Because I was disgusted that my expectations were right. I went to my bed and lay down on it to get away from her. I stumbled over there while reading a book I borrowed from our library.I was hired as a waitress - if that isn’t obvious yet. I have no experience in this kind of field. I’m currently burning brows so I can just get my degree but for now I have to go through this kind of sufferings in order to chase that degree.“Hey! Why do you seem to not care? Are you serious about all this? I just lost a few days of what happened in your life! ” I smirked in my mind. How come we haven't seen each other for a long time.“First, you move out of the apartment. Then you call me to say you're a surrogate but I don't understand why you're still a waitress! Stop fooling me. If you’re a surrogate you must be rich at this moment. ”I turned t
Hugh’s POVI was busy doing my routine here in the gym one morning, these were the days when I have the time to have time for my self. I've only been here for a few weeks working on the pad and not at Rockwell’s.I was on my second set when I heard foot steps and sigh. I saw Angel waking her way inside the gym wearing my shirt that’s almost on her mid leg. She’s barefoot and her hair is still a bit messy, obviously just waking up.Her first trimester was coming to an end and I was slowly seeing a change in her. If then he didn't like me at all, he was very jealous and he always fought me is the opposite of all that now.She’s becoming more clingy than usual, also becoming tender and almost unable to separate herself from me. That explains why she’s wearing my shirt almost every day, it’s fine with me though. I love seeing her wear my clothes. She looks cute and I’m turned on. I stopped whatever I’m doing.Panting and sweating so hard, I came to her and smiled sexily. I saw her eyes pi
Hugh’s POV "I'm worried about you," I whispered to her ears.I’m not comfortable seeing her cook in out kitchen. Her bump is not yet that big but I’m still worried that this might cause some bad effects to her.“What? Don’t worry about me. I can do this. ”Yes. That’s your favorite sentences. I should not worry about you and you can do all things.The doctor said he needed rest. If only he could be in the hospital because he is often dehydrated, I would have done it. I want her to rest badly but what can I do when he wants it this way?"Don't worry." she smiled and made our nose touch with each other. That. Only then is she good, being tender and loving to me until I give up and give in to what he wants. I scolded him and he laughed was my reaction."Molly told me that it's okay and it's normal.""I don't care what Molly told you."”I believe her because she experienced this already. So we must listen to her. And besides, I’m the mother. I would know what’s the matter with my body. ”
I never knew I could be this strong. And now, I realized that after all, some things are not learned just by experiencing it. It can also be learned by yourself.You can dictate your own preference, you can be your own teacher. You can be your own standard, and you can be your own role model. I can be a mother without having to experience the love of a mother. Hugh is enough. I am enough.One morning when I woke up I felt a cold metal that Hugh was wearing on me. My sleepy eyes went wide seeing the fancy and sparkling stone in there. My tears rolled down my cheeks. My heart pounded as I wondered what that sin sing meant.“H-Hugh,” I stuttered when I look at him asking what’s that for."Good morning my soon to be wife and mother of my children." he smiled and kissed my lips. I could not believe what he said that time was one of the cherished moments in my life.It is not on my imaginations, I look forward for the fancy and extravagant proposal, but what he did was beyond my imagination
"P-Pregnant?" his mom asked.“Yes. Do you have any problem with the mother? ” Hugh asked innocently and drunk the beverage in front of him.I cleared my throat.“Angel? Is that true? ” she turned her attention to me. My mouth parted, I want to say something but I couldn’t find the right words.“That is not right! You two- ”"We're not." said Hugh. I held Hugh’s hand trying to stop him."I can manage."My mom is just looking at me while Hugh’s mom is really confused“What is this? I thought this is all clear? Now you’re pregnant? What- ”"Helena," my mom uttered her name.All eyes went to her. She’s looking nervous that’s all I can see beyond the strong facade she’s showing. It’s like I’m seeing my soul. It’s like I’m seeing a part of me, just like looking into a mirror."What?" said Hugh’s mom."They're not cousins." she uttered.“What !?” Hugh’s mom burst.“We’ve talked about this and you explained it to me, why-”"Hugh and I had talked already." She turned to Hugh.“And, we’ve made
The next morning was the same for that both of us. I cried again because of so much vomiting and this time it is more worst than any other day. I think I just doze off almost the whole morning.I’m not craving for any food, I just want to rest. And my stomach is like a roller coaster ride.Some days I’m not like this. Vomiting happens just in the morning but this time I’m feeling dehydrated because of too much vomiting."Baby, we need to go to the hospital now." Hugh kept no convincing me since the second vomiting.Now that he’s on his nth time and I almost can’t lift a finger I have done nothing but consent. I didn’t have the energy to travel, I think I passed out.I just woke up with dextrose. Hugh is beside me. He’s worried but I saw his sigh of relief when he saw me opened my eyes. I smiled."It's alright," He seemed to cannot find his words. I assured him with holding his hands."It's the baby, I'm alright." He sighed and palmed my stomach. He made my stomach as his pillow and ki
I was sitting on the bed while Hugh’s arm is wrapped on the lower part of my body. He’s sleeping because he said he’s really deprived of sleep for the past few days.I feel sorry for him so I just let him. She fell asleep when I played with his hair. It’s almost lunch, and now the life inside me is looking for something to eat.My mouth is salivating thinking about some strawberry that’s being deep on a chocolate fountain. I want to wake him up but I don’t want too at the same time. I played with his hair and twitched my lips. I heard my stomach grumbling again."What do you want now?"I bit my lip when I heard his hoarse voice. Shocks! He’s awake? He lifted his face and with a half opened eyes he spoke.“What does my baby want? I know you’re hungry. I’m sorry for dozing off. ” I shook my head while still pouting."You need to sleep more." He stood so he can sit.“No, I’m fine now. I was just enjoying your caress on me. ” I chuckled."I think I need lunch?" I gulped thinking bout food
“Yes Doc,” he’s speaking on the phone.I’m seated on the bed, just got done by the morning session of morning sickness."I think she is,"He’s holding my hand with his one hand caressing it. I can’t help but hide this joy now that my morning is different."I suggest she go to the hospital,"I chuckled lightly, he grabbed my attention. He furrowed his brows to me. He is really the one who wants to suggest. He was even smarter than the Doctor. He’s just over acting."I'll take her to you as soon as she can manage, alright."He ended the call and frowned at me."What's funny?" I purse my lips. So that he can't see the smile I'm hiding.“You need to eat your breakfast now. You need strength. ” he uttered and held both of my hands now.I feel like I’m in cloud nine. Pregnancy never felt this good inside my head. I thought it’s all just sufferings, I forgot that the father of my child is here. Oh, not yet sure."What do you want to eat?" he asked."Anything, except milk." I said."You hate
He stood up violently hearing my words.He’s freaking mad. He’s mad! I struggled to look at him. He stepped forward which made me stood up into my seat."Is your love for me so shallow, Angel?"My brows furrowed. How dare him judge my love for him?"Is your love so shallow that you can think of aborting our child?" his voice growled on the whole room which made my tail retreat.“Are you that inhumane !?” he’s real mad.“Yes! What do you want me to do? Keep this life inside of me and what? He of she’ll live questioning how fvcked up this world is? ”He palmed his face and walked back and forth. It seemed to be bitten but still restrained itself.“We. Are. Not. Cousins. Do you understand that? ” he said emphatically.My mouth parted."That's what you believe." I uttered with shaking voice.“I said we’re not,” he’s tired now.His tone is almost giving up.“I told you already,” I whined too.He stepped more and tried to touch my hands. But I stepped back. He looked at me with his sad eyes
Angel’s POVThis is my definition of horror if it really does exist. My face almost bled from the panic when I heard what he said. "H-how did-""Eat your ice cream," he simply said.He put his hand in his pocket, looking so lazy that everything seemed just normal. I was stoned rock. I couldn’t move. Why I don’t know what’s happening? "I said get out!""What?" he asked innocently.“Why are you here? This is my room! ”"We can just go back at out home, why are you even staying in here?" he scanned the room with the disgusting look in his face.”What? Are you kidding me? I’m not going back to you! ”"Why?" his eyes are cold.I stopped, almost backing away in horror at the sight of his eyes."C-cause, I'm not going back."I’m not making any sense."I said why?" he raised an brow.I palmed my face. I don’t know why I can’t say it with my mouth now."How did you know I'm here?"I asked slight mad. He side eyed me. He even removed his shoe and lay into my bed. Damn this man!"I'm asking yo
