Iris“What are you doing here? I asked as my eyes flew open to see my mommom packing my clothes. She smiled and turned to me with my cloth still in his hands.“I’m helping you with the clothes;; I know there’s a lot you have to do!”I sat up from the bed,bed, confused. Whatwas she was she saying?!“Sorry, but I don’t need any help." help." Istated this stated this and waited for her to leave.“Of course, you need help,help, Iris. You don't have to also prove stubborn on this,this,” she replied,replied, goinggoing back to stacking my clothesclothes in a suitcase.“I don’t know what you’re saying;; I’m not traveling anywhere,anywhere, so why are you doing this?this?” I gestured at the suitcase,suitcase, then slipped out ofof the comfort of my bed.I had the intention of sleeping throughout the day,day, and now she’s ruining that for me.“He didn’t tell you? My mommom asked in surprise before building a barricade aroundaround her feelings.“Maybe he meant to surprise you,you,” shesaid, s

IrisAnd he kept his promise. This was my third month of staying in Brazil, and I felt my life take a new turn.It wasn’t the old Isak again, but a new man. A man who was there to care for me and the baby more than I have ever asked for!In the first few months, I had resisted him, not knowing his main motive, but as days turned into weeks and weeks into months,.I found myself accepting most of his help. I didn’t know what changed, but I accepted it without asking more questions.I was still very cautious of my heart; I wasn’t going to allow myself to fall foolishly again.I examined my hair back in the mirror and did one more final touch to it, then straightened up to rub my hands down my dress.I was putting on a red velvet dress that fit perfectly on my pregnant body.The dress was one of Isak’s gifts from the past few months; he hadn’t failed to give me presents every month.I had rejected a few, then got tired and allowed him to make his wish. The pendant I wore was just a tiny

IrisAfter a week of meeting Ian, I tried to push both the event and him away from my mind.There was no use thinking about him, and if he insists and keeps on coming, the only thing I have to do is stand my ground and persist.“This food smells nice! Isak complimented me as he walked over to hold me from behind. I had to cook and prepare dinner for some of his friends who were coming over.He had refused to bother me with the stress, but I had been excited because it gave me something to do, and I asked my mind to stop thinking too much.“Go! You have to take your bath now! You don’t have to wait there! I pushed him away jokingly on his chest."Yes, my highness,” he bowed in a mocking tone, which only made me laugh.“Go, Isak! I ordered him out of the kitchen, and when he left, I could see the wide beam on his face before he left.“Finally, you’ve seen what I was thinking about; you could create your own happy home, Iris. You don’t have to run around looking for the perfect man for t

IrisMy hand trembled violently while I gripped the counter and tried to steady myself against falling. He wouldn’t do that to me!My chest tightened, and I struggled to breathe. Was that a sort of way to pay me back since I didn’t go back to him?Whatever happens, I won't allow my relationship to ruin it!“Iris! My head snapped up to see my mom standing on the stairs. Thank God! Ian has left. I sighed in relief as my eyes averted to the door, then back at him.“What was that noise? She asked as she walked down. I rubbed my hands together just to force them to be steady as I walked over to meet her.“Nothing! I blurted out, hoping that my fear was not visible for her to see, but there was doubt in her eyes as I responded.“It was nothing; I was just talking to myself.” She walked into the kitchen to see the wet floor, then turned curiously and looked at me.“How did this happen?“Ummm… yeah… I thought I had a noise outside, and when I opened it to check what the rattling was all abou

IsakI pushed my weight firm against the door, but it suddenly unlocked, and I stood aside as she pulled the door open.“Are you okay? I tried to hold her, but she took a step back from me with a bloodshot eye.“Iris! I called and am now worried as hell! What had happened to her? I had heard her scream, and I thought maybe she had fallen or something.“Is the baby okay? I bent over to examine her stomach, but she just stood there in tears without saying a word.“Please, talk to me. What happened? I stared at her and waited for an answer, but she wasn’t ready to speak.I rushed into the bathroom to check what was wrong, but I just saw her laptop on top of the toilet seat!“Iris! Please talk to me. What’s wrong? I asked, emerging from the bathroom, to see her still standing there in tears and staring into space.“I’ll get hold of the doctor,” I said, rushing over to the bed to grab my cellphone, but her voice stopped me midway from dialing the number.“How…could you?!
