Annabelle’s POVWhy does whatever I say or do set him off? It was the same cycle everyday, always fighting over irrelevant things, it is starting to get really boring. I dabbled quickly at my tears to hide them, Adrien despised them; he had warned me countless times against crying and about how it made me seem weak. I cleaned them not wanting to aggravate him any more than he already was.“Apologies,I didn't mean it that way” I quickly muttered swiping away the stray tears that still escaped,He laughed in response, a distasteful look on his face. My head was throbbing with an existing bad headache and a certain dizziness I couldn't explain. I slid my hands over to his before speaking, "Why do we keep doing this,Adrien? Constant fights will not do anything more than destroy our marriage together ” I asked softly, all of these is starting to pull me down badly,"I won't do anything you don't like anymore,"I pleaded, trying to ignore the emptiness in my heart as I spoke,I would apolo

Annabelle’s POVAs the realization dawned on me, a sudden wave of happiness filled me, saying to myself “I am going to be a mother,’’“I am going to be a mother” repeating loud in quick succession as delight burst inside me, I couldn't suppress the happiness, maybe this is what Adrien and I needed, a child to bring us together.But the smile vanished as quickly as it appeared, my thoughts hit me once again.

Annabelle’s POVI fell to the floor as my jelly-like quivering knees failed to hold me up, the tears which I had tried so hard to suppress, finally started to flow and this time I did not try to stop them. I let them drop naturally without thinking about how puffy my eyes would be or the impending headache that was going to come right after. Deeper than I could have ever dreamed, the pain was unbearable. Adrien’s terrible words kept playing in my head like a nasty reminder of how little I mattered to him. How could he treat me as if I was nothing? And to drive out in the middle of the night to be with his ex-girlfriend after everything he had said, it felt as though he was continuously stabbing a knife into my heart. Thinking that loving him would ever be enough made me feel like a fool. I battled for so long just to make this marriage work, always telling myself that maybe one day he would see me, like truly see me, and love me back. Still, at the end of the day, it was all useles

I had rushed inside the room looking for Adrien but I couldn't find him. I turned to leave but I suddenly felt lightheaded and fell unconscious.

He was going to regret treating me horribl
