"Have you taken anything today?""No, I don't have an appetite."Irene nodded, writing something down."Dizziness, weakness?""I only experienced both today.""Soreness or any form of pain in your nipple area?"Melissa felt embarrassed. The fact that Damien had his eyes on her as she answered all of the questions."It's fine, we would just do a general test, including the pregnancy test. Please come with me." Irene rose to her feet. Melissa followed suit."Can I come too?" Damien voiced out. "You can wait for her at the reception. She will join you shortly."Damien nodded, rising to his feet. They all exited the office. While Mel and Irene made their way to the laboratory, Damien was stuck at the reception. He took out his phone from his pocket and sat down. There was a missed call from Roland.He sighed, calling the number back."Hey dude! Thought you were still in the meeting, that's why I didn't call again. How is it going? Have you spoken to Melissa ?"Damien sighed deeply, not k

"Mel, say something," Damien said, the moment she looked away from him."I don't know what to say.""Isn't that your wish? My lawyer has been working hard to make sure this gets sorted and here you are, acting so less concerned."Melissa said nothing."I understand you. You are being racist to me."She stared at him. "Why would you say that?""Isn't that what's on your mind? You wish I was single, had no daughter, no wife. And you wouldn't want to be known for marrying a divorced man. You don't have to keep the truth away from me. I know exactly how you feel."Melissa shook her head. "You're coming up with unnecessary thoughts in your head.""If my reasons are not valid then you genuinely do not like me. I'm sure you wouldn't mind if I get myself another woman."Melissa scoffed. "Can we stop talking about us and focus on the mess we are in?""And no. I'm not against you because you have a daughter. I admit I was shocked and jealous to find out about her but she's one of the sweetest l

Melissa continued staring at the prescription she was holding."What do you feel like eating?""Nothing. I just want my bed.""I think I'm going to have you move in with me," Damien whispered to himself."What?""You heard what the doctor said about things you need to do. Being with you is the only way I get to keep my eyes on you.""That wouldn't be necessary, I can take care of myself. I will eat when I get home.""I know you are an adult but I don't trust your words." Melissa was about to say something but he cut her off. "There's so much that can go wrong when you are not happy with something.""I just feel so numb but that doesn't mean that I'm unhappy. I'm just so shocked and my brain feels tired. I have a personality where I sort of have everything figured out in my head, so when something goes wrong, I end up going back to the drawing board and it drains me.” "I'm not mad at you or the baby. Though I'm a little mad at myself for not taking my pills. I know my anger makes no s

"Please let me call you back, Alice." Emily said to the person on the other end, after which she ended the call, keeping her phone aside. "You Okay?" She said to her sister, seeing her walk into the living room."Everything good at work? Where's your bag?" Emily stared in confusion, surprised to see her sister home by this time.Melissa heaved a deep sigh. She placed the food bags on the center table after which she plopped down on the couch beside Emily."You wouldn't believe what happened today?""I can guess. Damien eventually showed up and you all had a fight.""How did you know?"Emily shrugged. "It has always been him so it has to be him.""He knows I'm pregnant."The worry on Emily's face was instantly replaced with relief as a small smile crept to her lips."Please don't smile, it's not funny." Melissa groaned."It's not funny but it's good news. I'm going to be an aunt again and the father of the baby is aware. What more can I ask for?""Okay, how did he find out? Because I

"Where's Ryan?" Melissa voiced out, intentionally changing the topic."He was here just now. He went to get his tab.""Where are you going? Don't you want to unbox the gift?" Emily said to Mel who was walking away.Melissa proceeded to Ryan's room. She found him by the sofa, putting a book in his backpack. Mel shut the door and approached her son with slow steps."Hi baby." She bent to kiss his cheek."Hi." He mumbled, not looking at Melissa.Melissa sat on the sofa and pulled her son close to her. She made Ryan sit on her lap and intertwined her hands with his. "Are you still mad at me?"The little boy nodded."I miss you but I'm still mad at you.""What can I do to make you forgive me?"Ryan shrugged."How was school today?""Good. I finished my lunch.""And Rumi?""She's good too.""Would you like to talk to your Daddy?"Ryan's eyes lit up, his lips curved into a beautiful smile. "Daddy?"Melissa nodded. "Do you want to talk to him?""Yes.""Okay, let me go get my phone.""Tell me

"Come on, answer me, Daddy." Rumi pouted, waiting for answers.Damien gently massaged his temple, thinking of the right words to say and in a way that his little girl was going to understand him.Vicky and Betty were seated on different chairs in the living room, with their attention on both father and daughter."Yes, Ryan is your brother and Melissa is his mommy.""But why didn't you tell me when I came to your office the other day."Dam sighed quietly, thinking of how to explain the situation to her and neither did he want to put Melissa in bad light."I'm so sorry about that, darling. I was waiting for the right time to do so. I hope you can forgive me." He stared at his daughter with pleading eyes.Rumi quit frowning and started smiling again. "It's fine. I'm happy to know that Ryan is my brother. People in school keep calling us siblings. It feels good to know that Ryan is my real sibling. I like Melissa too. I see Ryan in school but when can I see Melissa, Daddy? And are we goin

"Betty!" Vicky warmed."Come on, mom. You know I am telling the truth. We all know that Rhoda comes from a rich family. She's successful and has her own money. She is trying to do this so she can frustrate Damien.""Of course, no one in their right senses would give out their hard earned properties. She is just trying to taunt Damien so he can withdraw the divorce.""She's not going to get away with whatever selfish desires she has in her heart. I have a woman my heart beats for and no one can stop me from being with her, most especially not Rhoda." Damien said with so much determination in his voice.......................Melissa fed her son after which she took his bath bath for him, dressed him up for the night, and then talked him to bed.She exited Ryan's room and made her way back to the living room."I was about to make ramen. You want some?""I'm not sure what I want for dinner. I don't feel hungry." Melissa mumbled, approaching the table where the roses and gift bag were.Me

"Betty was furious. She heard some gossip and was ready to fight me.""What gossip?" Mel couldn't help but ask."People saw me and you holding hands so there were speculations"Silence."It's nothing bad, I think. Just speculations that there is a thing going on with us.""You don't have to worry. I'm going to clear the air tomorrow. No one has the right to ever disrespect you.""Say something. Please!" Dam pleaded."I don't know what to say but I guess it's fine. People will always say whatever it is they have to say. And you don't have to apologize. You were only worried about me. I most probably wouldn't have gone with you to your car if you hadn't pulled me along with you.""I still feel terrible for pulling you. Maybe I should have been more careful. I was......"Damien sighed. "I had no idea what I was thinking. I was angry, nervous and all over the place. I'm sorry.""I give you my word that I will clear the air in the office. No one is going to make you feel uncomfortable when
