Four months later:

“Miss, you need to wake up or your going to be late.” I hear my maid say as I’m shaken again. “Ugh” I say rolling back into my bed. “You have ten minutes and I’m coming back in here.” She says walking out of my room. As I roll to my side I feel my stomach churning. I hate this stomach bug I’ve been having this last few weeks. As I go to sit up I reach for my phone, the time tells me that I am indeed running late.

As I start getting dressed I notice that my jeans are tighter than normal. Sense getting my inheritance, I’ve put on about ten pounds. I’m already a thicker girl, so ten pounds is not that much to gain. Imma have to go get some more clothes that fit. I grab my car keys and start towards the door. “Avalin, you have a doctors appointment today for your stomach bug. It’s at 3 after your last class.” Jay one of my maids says.

“Sounds good thank you jay.” I say and hug her before I leave for the day. I have three classes before my appointment history, chem, and ethics. As I get into my car I think about how my life has changed for the better in the last four months. I went from working at a lingerie store to living my dream life. As I pull into the coffee house next to my school I feel like i'm being watched. Ive had this feeling in the past few months, but everytime I look around I have never been able to find if someone is watching me. I slowly get out of my car and glance around, not seeing anyone that I have seen in the past few months I lock my car and enter the coffee house. 

"Morning miss Avalin!" the barista Anna says waving at me as I enter. "Morning Anna." "What can I get you today." Anna asked me. "Well, imma get a green tea latte." "You still getting over that stomach bug?" Anna asked. "Yah, you would have thought that after a week it would have gone away." I said rubbing my stomach. "Best hope your not pregnant." Anna said. I laughed and grabbed my drink from Anna. "In order for you to be pregnant you need to have sex." I say and wave well walking out of the coffee shop. Pregnant? No way I haven't had sex since Mr.Kenway took my virginity in the back seat of his car. I shake my head and continue to my first class. 

My phone started beeping shortly after my last class, I fumbled to get my phone out of my bag in time to answer my phone. "Hello." I say answering my phone in a hurry. "How are you?"Mr.Kenway said. "How did you get this number." I said trying to find my keys. "I have my ways. Are you going to answer my question?" He asks, I just roll my eyes.  "Goodbye." I say hanging up the phone. I still have a doctors appontment to make and do not have time for Mr.Kenways unusual dating ways. He has called me on every new number that I have gotten in the last few months. I've changed my number five times now and each time he somehow gets my number. It's not that I don't want to talk to him and explore this dating thing with Mr.Kenway. 

It took me ten minutes to get to my doctors office with my phone ringing three more times. I never pickup my phone when driving it's just a bad idea. "Hello how can I help you." The receptionist said "Avalin Kent, I have a 3 pm appointment." "Oh yes Ms.Avalin, if you would fill out this form. As well as give us a urine sample." "Urine sample for what?" I asked, and the thought of being pregnant came back to mind. "It's mandatory that all patients take a urine sample to check for pregnancy and other imbalances." "Ok." I say taking the papers and urine cup from her. "Where do I leave the sample?" I ask turning back towards the counter. "There is a turn table in the wall in the bathroom to the left. Put it in there and the tech will get it from there."

I go to the bathroom and put my urine sample on the turn table when I am done. "Here is my paperwork," I told the receptionist turning to go sit down. I suddenly got a sharp pain in my side, I take a deep breath and grab my side. "Ma'am, are you ok?" the receptionist asked. "Im ok, this is one of the reasons I'm here today." "We'll get you back as soon as possible." The receptionist said turning to make a phone call. She tried to whisper what she was saying but I was still able to hear her. "Dr.Grien, Ms.Kent is here and shes showing signs of a miscarriage." "Yes sir their testing here urine sample now." "Ill bring her back right after I get the results." As she hung up the phone, she left to go through another door that read labs. In less than a minute she came back out with paper in her hands. "Ms.Kent, come with me please." She says. I get up and follow her to the exam room. As we enter the exam room the doctor follows close behind. "Ms.Kent, how are you feeling?" the doctor says. "Well, I'm here, so not very good."

"Ms.Kent, your test results came back negative for any abnormalities or pregnancy. What are your symptoms?" "I have bloating, upset stomach, loss of appetite, I've been sleeping more." "If your test wasnt negative I would think that you are pregnant." The doctor said turning towards me. "So what could it be?" I ask not sure were the doctor was taking this. "Well Ms.Kent, were going to draw some blood, do an exam and go from there." "Sounds good." I said laying back on the exam table. "Alright Ms.Kent let me know if any of this pushing on your stomach hurts." The doctor said pushing lower and lower on my stomach. "None of this hurts?" He asks pushing closer toward my pelvis. "That hurts," I say as he continues to push closer to my pelvis. "There seems to be a hardness in your uterus, were going to have to do an ultrasound. Nurse can you get the ultrasound machine?" "Yes, doctor." the nurse says leaving the room. 

After about ten minutes the nurse came back in with an ultrasound machine. "You ready Ms.Kent?" "No, but, let's do this," I say laying back again. "Alright, here we go." After about a minute the doctor pushes a little harder. "Well, Ms.Kent we have a surprise for you." The doctor said turning a dial on the machine. "You hear that?" "What is that?" It sounded like a heartbeat. "That is the sound of your baby Ms.Kent. You are about four months along." "You got to be fucking kidding me," I say astonished, I have a million different things going threw my head.

    I walked out of the doctor's office with a script for nausea medicine and an ultrasound printout. What was I going to do? The doctor explained that the morning-after pill has little to no effect on a person over 180 lbs. I weighed 190 at the time that I took the pill. How am I going to do this? I have to finish school, I can't just take a sabbatical from school. Not again anyway. I can't tell Mr.Kenway, god I'm going to seem like a gold digger if I tell him now. I've been avoiding him since we slept together. I thought I had this possibility taken care of a long time ago. Why does my whole life have to change in such a short time? As I arrive home from the doctors I’m still in a daze. The one person I do not want to see right now is sitting in my drive way. Mr.Kenway is leaning against his vehicle, which is parked directly where my car normally gets parked. I pull the mirror down and look at myself in the mirror. I have puffy eyes and a red face. But other than that I look fine. As I

    For the last month, I’ve become accustomed to Trey calling and messaging regularly. Today was a little different from normal, he hasn’t texted me or called all day and it’s now 5 in the afternoon. It was making me a little worried. I picked up my phone and called him, “Hello?” Said a female voice. “Hello, is Trey available?” I asked really pissed off now. “I’m sorry he’s other wise engaged.” “Can you tell him that Avalin called?” I asked about to hang up. I heard Trey in the background yelling at the female. “How dare you…” that’s when I hung up and put my phone on silent. He must have gotten a girlfriend or something, I was not about to get between him and whoever he was seeing. Trey pov:“How dare you take my phone!” I yelled at Jasmine my business associate. “Give it to me now! I’ve been looking for that all fucking day.” I said taking the phone from Jasmine. “Who were you just talking to?” I asked looking at the call history. She must have deleted the history because no one was o

    “I know everything Avalin.” Trey says leaning into me. “What do you know exactly Trey?” “I know everything about you and the last few months.” He says putting me down and going to talk to the ambulance that just pulled in. “Kyle, don’t tell him a thing.” I said looking over at Treys bodyguard. “Ma’am, he needs to know eventually that’s your pregnant.” “Not from you Kyle.” I said waiting on Trey to bring the paramedics in to evaluate me. “Avalin, the paramedics are here to evaluate you.” “Trey, can you give me some space to talk to the paramedics alone?” I asked “ I have a few phone calls to make anyway, I’ll be right back.” “Alright ma’am, how are you feeling?” The paramedic said starting to take my vitals. “I’m ok, I do have a concern. I’m pregnant and am experiencing some cramping.” “Congratulations ma’am, are you experiencing any bleeding or discharge?” “No.” “Then I would say you are very lucky, but due to the cramping should see a doctor as soon as possible.” “I can have my doct

    One week later:I feel like I can breathe, like I’m being suffocated. I never have time to myself and all the gifts are starting to get annoying. The babies keep kicking up a storm and I officially can’t sleep without a very large pillow. Why does pregnancy have to be so hard? I eat all the time and am always still hungry. This last week has been a whirlwind; I feel like a coddled child. I get escorted to school, to and from appointments, and shopping. It’s so annoying not to have any privacy anymore. As sweet as he is, Trey will not leave me alone for 5 seconds. I'm standing in my kitchen looking at my fridge when my phone rings. I bet it's him, I really do not want to answer the phone. However, he'll just keep calling. "What do you want?" I answer the phone in an irritated manner. "Bitch, is that any way to answer your best friend's phone call. I mean damn what's wrong with you?" Bieve said in a very sassy manner through the phone. "Girl, don't play with me I have cabin fever and th

    "Sir, this is Grant." "What's wrong, Grant?" Trey said, looking at his watch. "She's gone; I've looked everywhere in this bookstore. She must have gone out the emergency exit door in the bathroom." Grant said with worry in his voice. "I hired you for one reason, and you went and fucked it up. Did you even think about tracking her car?" Trey asked, sounding super pissed off. "No, sir, I didn't. I'll do that right now." "No, I got it, Grant." "Sir?" Grant asked, worried about what this meant for his job. "Grant, head back to the house. I'll deal with you later. I will track Avalin down." Trey said, clearing up the issue with Grant. Treys perspective:I can't believe her ass; I thought she was good with the guard and staying at home as much as possible. She has two babies to think about and decides to traipse down an emergency exit staircase to escape her guard. How irresponsible can she be? Now I have to cancel my meetings for the day to track her and her best friend down. I try to cal

    "Why are you always such a brat!" Trey says, slamming the door behind me and throwing his tie down on the entryway table. "Maybe you need to stop being such a dick. I'm not property Trey, a human being here." I said turning to face him. He always looks so sexy when he gets riled up. "Listen here baby, you are going to have to stop these charades," Trey says cracking his neck and walking me up against the wall in the entryway. "Or what?" I said knowing damn well that I was challenging him. "Or you are going to start getting punishments that you may not like." He said leaning further down to kiss me. Trey pulled away heading up the stairs well pulling his suit jacket off. “Ten minutes Ava, times ticking.” Trey said over his shoulder, I still hadn’t moved from the spot I was planted to in the hall way. I shake my head and start up the stairs as slowly as possible. I know what’s about to happen it is going to be entirely delicious. As I get to the top of the stairs I start towards and be

    Every time he leaves for work, I feel empty inside. What does that make me? I feel like I'm too attached to Trey and need to get some space from him. I don't know what I will do yet, but I need time without Trey influencing my decisions. I look at my computer, which I have spent the last six hours doing homework. I type into the search bar houses near me. As I look through the houses near me, I can't help but imagine what each house would be like with the kids and Trey in them. I find a few properties I like and schedule appointments to see the houses later in the day. We may live in my family home together, but I would like to get a few more properties to rent them out or as a getaway. My financial advisor told me I had about ten properties in the area that had just come on the market. A year ago, I never thought I would be making decisions about buying multimillion-dollar properties. Now I will look at eight properties in a day; however, I do not want Trey to know what properties I

    Why are men so confusing? I'm sitting here watching Kyle pack Trey's clothes and still haven't had a reply from Trey either via phone or text. I know that the conversation as to how we were going to live was going to be a tough one but I didn't expect him to freak out and leave. I know I said I wanted space from him, but I don't think that it is something that I need. Why do men do one thing and mean another? He's acting like a hurt little boy, why can't he just say that he has feelings and get over himself? Why do men get scared when they have feelings? I know what I feel towards Trey, I am in love with him. But sometimes I feel as if he doesn't see it or feel it because of how closed off I am. I look at my emails and find that I have gotten the package of documents to sign for the houses that I bought for my company. I still can't believe that the gag order on my company worked in deterring Trey from looking into my company further. I plan on releasing the owner of the company on

    Breve, had to have gone mad. I can't believe that she would take my children when they are still in critical condition in the hospital. "Miss, We are here." The driver said pulling up to a warehouse and stopping. Now why would this crazy, want to meet at a warehouse in the middle of no where? Well this particular psycho has a thing for warehouses. I hear my phone ring and pick it up. "I have your money Bieve. Where are my kids?!" I yelled into the phone angrily. "Put the money in the car to the right of you." She said as I looked over at a beat up black sedan. I moved to put the money in the car and backed away. "Where are they Bieve?" I asked as I continued to back towards the warehouse behind me. "Well my dear friend, I'm afraid that they are gone." She said coming out from around the car with what looked like a remote in her hand. "NNOOOOOOOOOOO!" I yelled trying to run towards Bieve to stop her. As I did the building behind me blew up and I flew forward flat on my face. My head w

    One month later:“Where are they?” I yelled in the middle of the NICU. “Ma’am please calm down they will be back shortly.” The nurse said turning towards the phone on the wall. “I want to know where they are this minute!” I said loudly starting to get pissed off. “ They are on there way back now, they went to get their hearing tests done.” The nurse said. “You have five minutes and then I’m calling security for my kids missing.” I said starting to tap my foot and looking pissed off. These people have taken my kids multiple times now without telling us where they are taking them first. I'm not sure where Trey is either he should have been with them since I could not be with them. I take my phone out ready to call security when I heard crying up the hallway and start towards the crying. I was for sure that the crying was coming from one of the babies. As I got further up the hall I was not seeing a baby at all. I turn and head back towards the kids' room. I take my phone out and call Tr

    “Trey, you don’t know that we would stay together.” I said turning away from him and looking towards the door. “Ava, I knew the minute you sassed me in the lingerie store that I wanted you to be mine.” “You couldn’t have known them, I was just a random sales associate.” I said starting to tear up. “Ava, I have never felt more drawn to a person like I have been to you. You are funny, independent, and strong willed. You don’t let others get you down. I love you Ava why would I leave?” Treys words sunk in and I couldnt believe what he was saying. "You don't mean that." I said putting my face in my hands and crying. Why would he love me? Why wouldn't he leave me like everyone else has done in the past. "Ava, I wish you could see yourself the way that I see you." Trey said sitting on the bed next to me and huggin me tight as I balled my eyes out for what felt like forever. I felt my eyes drooping and gave in to the need to fall asleep. I woke up to the sun peaking through drawn curtains a

    "Your doing great Avalin." The nurse said writing down the feed time on the white board. This is the second time that I have feed her and it feels like it may get easier the more I feed the kids. I have spent the last six hours since my youngest was born going back and forth between my room and the emergency ward. As I was talking to the baby the name Madeline popped into my head. "Trey, lets call her Madeline. Maddy for short, what do you think?" "Thats a lovely name for her." Trey said. "Hi Maddy, looks like we finally named you." I said slowly putting her back into her bassinet to sleep. “Ava, are we still naming our son after me?” Trey asked. “Of course if that is what you want then yes.” I said walking up to him and hugging him. “Then we only have one little angel to name.” “Ava, I think you just found her name.” Trey said kissing my head. “Angel?” I said a little confused we never really had a chance to talk about baby names once we found out we were having a third baby. “I was

    As the nurses and doctor go in and out of my room for the next hour. All I can do is hope that this next baby will be fine. They keep saying that as long as we get her to the Neo emergency wing quickly that she has a 50/50 chance of making it. I’m still trying to wrap my head around her coming today. I thought we were in the clear when my labor ended. The doctor said that he thinks it just paused so that the third baby could drop down enough to initiate labor again. I’m not ready for this at all, all of my babies are to early. I’m trying hard not to hold hostility towards Margaret for starting my labor, but as every medical issue keeps popping up I find myself wishing she was alive so that I could kill her again. “Ma’am, we are getting closer to time for you to push.” A new nurse said. “No fucking duh.” I said through clenched teeth. They really think I wouldn’t notice that my contraction were getting closer together? Like not my first time giving birth in the last 24 hours. “How is

    I felt someone’s eyes on me and slowly opened my eyes. There was a nurse next to my bed looking at my arm and taking notes. “What’s wrong?” I asked looking at the nurse more clearly this time. “Oh, gosh!” She said jumping slightly. “You scared me, but everything is fine Avalin. I was just checking on your arm. Do you know what happened to your arm.” “Yes, I was shot.” I said matter of fact and closed my eyes again. “You were shot?” She questioned well looking more closely at my arm. “We’ll grazed really.” I said looking at my arm. “You shouldn’t need stitches for it at least. No wonder you went into early labor.” She said taking her gloves off and moving to leave. “You should have food coming in a bit.” She said leaving the room and heading towards the one that I remember the babies going into. I heard whispered talking and then saw Trey come back through the same door that the nurse had gone through. “Babies are doing great love.” Trey said coming to sit down next to me. “And the on

    "Fine," I said, leaning into Trey. I slowly started to dose off as the car came to a stop. "Ava, we have to go into the hospital," Trey said. I opened my eyes and moved to get out of the car. Trey helped me get up out of the car, as I was going to straighten I felt a run and what looked like water fell from between my legs. "Trey, I think that my water just broke," I said "Trey it's too early," I said, starting to wabble towards the hospital doors. Trey ran ahead calling for a nurse. As I walked through the door a nurse came up to me with a wheelchair. This is when all hell broke loose and another three nurses ran up to me all yelling different questions. "Shut up!" I yelled trying to keep my breath even. "I was shot in the arm, more of a graze. I'm 29 weeks pregnant and I'm pretty sure my water just broke. I'm pregnant with triplets. Any other questions?" I asked leaning forward on the wheelchair as my stomach contracted. "OWWWW," I yelled as the pain got worse. "Hello!, take me to

    “You will, you don’t have a say here dear. A contract has already been drawn up for you two to get married. Trey did say that he told you.” His mother said a little to condescending for my taste. I lean back in my chair and cross my fingers over my belly. “Diane, please proceed with what we talked about earlier. Can you please add this contract to you list as well?” I said looking over at Margaret. “Yes ma’am, which room?” She asked “Up the hall way second door on the right.” I said turning back to Margaret fully. “That’s enough marriage talk for one day.” I said with a firm tone. I take out my phone and hear Margaret huh. I roll my eyes and text Trey about his mother being here. I get a text back immediately. “Ava, my mother passed away ten years ago. Make sure someone is in the room with you. I’m on my way, so are the police.” I start to text Diane to come back into the living room, we’ll Gia has already left me alone with this Margaret person.

    I start to wake up to the smell of eggs and sausage. I also smell coffee, I miss coffee so much. I slowly blink my eyes open and make a mad dash for the bathroom. God I hate having to get up and immediately run to the bathroom. This whole pregnant thing is really starting to piss me off. Not that I don’t love my babies, I hate the whole being pregnant thing. If I could snap my fingers and the babies are healthy and here then I would be over the moon. I turn the shower on and start to clean up, it looks like Trey put a chair in the shower for me. I start to sit down, thank god he put this chair in here. I seem to lose my breath easy these days. As I finish up, I’m thinking about how much stuff I have to get done before another surprise baby comes. I seriously can’t do this bedrest stuff. I move to my closet to pick out an outfit for the day, I can still do things and take it easy. It does not necessarily mean that I have to lay in a bed all day. At least that is what I hope.
