YOU MAKE ME INSECURE Chapter 25: She is pregnant
I paced anxiously outside the doctor's office, trying to make sense of the unfolding situation. How did everything spiral out of control so quickly? I couldn't wrap my head around the events that led to Divine being rushed to the hospital. Finally, the doctor emerged, and I wasted no time bombarding him with questions. I needed answers to understand what had happened to the woman I loved. "What seems to be the problem with her, Doctor Jones?" I asked, my voice trembling with worry. The doctor sighed, clearly concerned. "Well, I've conducted some tests, and it appears she's pregnant. But I'm trying to determine the cause of her current condition." Should we wait for her to wake up and provide more information?" I suggested, desperately hoping for some clarity. The doctor shook his head. "She needs rest. I've administered medication to help her sleep. We'll have to rely on you for more details." Reluctantly, I realized I had no choice but to share what I knew. The doctor needed the
YOU MAKE ME INSECURE Chapter 26: The Aftermath
As consciousness gradually reasserted itself, I found myself ensconced in the sterile environment of a hospital room. The low murmurs of medical professionals drifted around me, their words a distant blur against the backdrop of my fragmented thoughts. My last coherent memory was the heart-wrenching image of my father's tragic demise, a surreal and painfully vivid reality. Struggling to make sense of my surroundings, I strained to eavesdrop on the hushed conversations of the medical staff. Their deliberations centred around medication and treatment plans, their significance clouded by my groggy state. As the haze began to lift, I summoned the strength to address the doctor who stood by my bedside, seeking clarity amidst the fog of my confusion. "What's happening?" I managed to croak, my voice feeble yet tinged with urgency. The doctor's demeanour shifted from concern to sympathy and relief as he responded, "You've been through quite an ordeal, Divine. But rest assured, the procedure

Ronald's POV: Ever since Dee was admitted to the hospital, my mind has been consumed with thoughts of how life would be without her. She's more than just someone I care about; she's become an essential part of my world. Despite the complexities of our situation, her absence feels like a void that can't be filled. With Tola in the mix, I'm balancing on a tightrope, trying to keep everyone happy while holding onto my sanity. Dee occupies my thoughts relentlessly. She's on my left, slipping away like sand through my fingers. I can't force her to stay, nor can I mend the wounds I've inflicted on her heart. It's as if she's not just pulling away from me but from the essence of the love we once shared. Our connection and intimacy are all dissipating, leaving me with a hollow ache that I can't escape. On my right stands Tola, a woman who once held my heart but now struggles to maintain her grip. Her efforts to keep us together are futile, for my heart belongs to someone else, someone who i

I found myself trapped in a whirlwind of frustration and desperation. Every ounce of my being was consumed by the need to win Ronald's affection, but my efforts had been in vain. Divine's unexpected return had shattered the carefully crafted plans I had laid out to secure my future with Ronald, and it tore me apart to witness him being drawn back into her arms.
