She continued.I was scared and my heart beats faster before it will start again, not because of what she said but the wickedness in her grows everyday. I need to let her know that I'm tired of everything already.Your grandchild? I asked In case you haven't heard, my child doesn't belong to your family. It belongs to someone else, I don't know what is going on with me at the moment but I just have to say what I said.What?? Mrs Robinson and Clara exclaimed.So the lizard in your stomach doesn't belong to this family and you have been here frustrating my life and my husband, you even wanted to kill him….Clara said.Clara, you won't dare me and say rubbish about me or interf

I needed to do something else apart from sleeping. When I heard all the comments from outside my door, I decided to stay and hear everything.Nicholas, can I ask for your help?

I could feel my head aching from my sleep, the traumatisms of everything makes me feel tired and frustrated. Before I slept off last night, I think through how I'm going to sort myself and my unborn child from the Robinson's family. I needed a phone to contact my friend and I still don't know her number without my sim, I know Cecilia would have been trying to reach me every day and every time but I won't be reachable.I was thinking about how to get to her new house she just relocated few days before the incident, it was my first time there before I realized I'm pregnant. I don't know how to get to her house and I don't know how to contact her, I just need someone to talk to.After so many thinking on how to reach Cecilia, I decided to go to my former office where I can find her or maybe to get her contact not knowing Mrs Robinson has done the worst.I woke up the following morning preparing to go to the office, I'm done preparing and I went out of my room to step out.I met Nichol
As I left Alex's grandmother's hospital room, my mind was racing with questions. I couldn't shake the feeling that Alex was hiding something from me. I decided to visit his grandmother again the next day and left the room.Alex followed me outside, and I thought he was just being kind by helping me get a cab. But to my surprise, he called a driver to take me home. I was stunned, and my suspicions about his wealth grew.As we waited for the driver to arrive, I couldn't help but think about the mysteries surrounding Alex. Who was he, really? And why was he being so kind to me?The driver arrived, and Alex helped me into the car. I waved goodbye to him, still lost in thought.When I arrived home, I was greeted by the sight of Clara cooking in the kitchen. She had just returned from visiting Nicholas at the hospital and was preparing a meal for him. I ignored her and went straight to my room, not wanting to have anything to do with her.As the evening wore on, I heard the sound of the
As I looked up, my eyes locked onto a familiar face, and for a moment, my anger melted away. It was Alex, standing in front of me with a look of shock and concern etched on his face."Iris, is that you?" he asked, his voice laced with surprise. "What are you doing here? Hope you're okay? Did you follow someone here?"I felt overwhelmed by his questions, and I knew I couldn't answer them all here. "It's a long story," I said, trying to brush it off.But Alex wasn't having it. He grabbed my hand, his touch sending a spark of electricity through my body, and pulled me towards a quiet corner of the hospital."Tell me everything," he said, his eyes burning with curiosity. "What's going on, Iris?"At first, I hesitated. We had promised each other to keep our secrets, and I didn't want to break that promise. But Alex's persistence wore me down, and I found myself wanting to open up to him."I had an accident," I said, trying to keep it simple.But Alex wouldn't let it go. "When did it happ
I lay in the hospital bed, watching as my mom cried and worried about me. She had no idea what had been going on, no idea about the pain and the heartache I had been through. I hadn't told her about the day my cousin, Clara, had cheated with my husband on our wedding anniversary. I hadn't told her about the way my husband's mother, Mrs. Robinson, had treated me. I hadn't told her about how my husband, Nicholas, had ended up in the hospital, or about my own pregnancy. And I definitely hadn't told her about Clara's shocking announcement that she was pregnant too.My mom's tears fell harder, and I felt a lump form in my throat. I wanted to tell her everything, to let it all out. But I couldn't. Not yet.Just then, the doctor walked in, a smile on his face. "Iris, I have some good news," he said. "Your husband is awake."My mom's face went white, shock written all over her features. I felt a pang of guilt, knowing that I had kept so much from her.The doctor continued, "If you'd like
Iris POV ~~~~~~ I stared at the other side of the bed, it was empty and void which was were Nich should have been. My fingers running over the wrinkled sheets, he never came home last night. No text, no call. Nothing. A knot tightened in my stomach as I reached for my phone on the nightstand 6:40am. Today was supposed to be special, our first wedding anniversary I was waking up alone on my bedside without Nich by my side to wish each other *Happy wedding anniversary*. I dailed his number. The phone rang once twice….then went to voicemail. “Hello, you've reached Nicholas’s cell phone, please leave a message.” A loud beep follows the voice and I instantly end the call, sighing heavily. I clenched my jaw. “Nich, where are you?” My voice came out shakier than I wanted “call me back. Please.” I sent the voicemail to him. I call again receiving the same voicemail, I ended the call and exhaled sharply, running a hand through my hair. Maybe there was a simple explanation. Maybe he go...
