Chapter 101 Finally pregnant

Chapter 101 Finally pregnant
STELLA

The first night was nausea. The kind that made me sit up in the toilet with a bowl in my hands as I puked my guts over and over.

I could have sworn it was because my husband was lying somewhere in a cold cell when he was supposed to be with me on our wedding night, but when I fainted again, I got the news.

I was pregnant.

" Do you want to keep it? We have a child now" Vincent said as he helped me back into the car.

" Whoa whoa?! Keep it? We? What the hell are you talking about?" 

He paused, staring at me with those eyes of his that held undying love for me. Just the way I liked it. 

" I mean, you said you wanted a child did you not? You wanted a child for him and now you have one. We both get to keep it"

I stared at him in disbelief. How stupid could he be?

" I wanted the child when Leon never knew he could not father a child..not now! Not when that bitch had ratted me out like that in front of the public. If I come out with a child now, Leon will know I cheated on him and that is way worse than lying about getting pregnant."

He paused for a while as though studying me..

" So you are going to kill the baby?"

" It's a fucking foetus. It does not have a brain or whatever yet. So yes, I am stopping by the clinic tomorrow and getting some drugs to flush this useless thing out of me."

I hated this idea, but more than anything, I hated Akira.

Vincent did not bother saying anything until he pulled Into my driveway.

" You know even men with low sperm count can get a woman pregnant right? You can always Insist the child has always been his, and you can even agree to a DNA test when the baby is born. That can be faked too. 

This is the only way that Leon will ever accept you back. Lying to him is bad, so what's one more lie to cover up the first?" 

I thought about it for a minute. As much as I wanted to argue, he was right. It could actually work and I could be seen as his again.

That night, I stayed up practicing my words, the parts where I will cry, my devotion of loyalty to him.

I had to get my husband back.

But now, standing in front of the prison cell as he was being prepared to be moved to the maximum prison, I could but help but feel the nerves hit me.

" You have just five minutes. The bus leaves in ten" the police officer said with his gruff voice, opening the gates to let me in.

" Look who finally decides to show up after I have been condemned to my grave" he sneered.

" I just came to see how you are doing baby, you are still my husband after all." 

" Your husband? So who has the bastard in your stomach?!"

I swallowed.

No, I could not do it.
" I was never pregnant. I lied to you about that so you will get married to me. I never knew about your condition too until Akira said it. So you have to believe me. I'm on your side" 

I watched him get up, eyes trailing mine as he stalked over to me slowly with his hand cuffs still restricting his movements.

" I don't want to ever see you here ever again and if you think you are off the hook because your name was not mentioned then think again. I will make sure you rot in prison, along with Me. So you had better run"

I stumbled back softly, watching the guards grab him and drag him into a van, leaving me too stunned to speak.

I could not tell him he had the child. Maybe if I had told him, he would have loved me, he would have given me a chance.

My eyes blurred with tears as I stumbled into my car driving to the clinic, my body shaking as I stared at her.

" I want to remove a baby. Give me abortion pills" 

Her gaze seemed to falter to my stomach and her mouth dropped but not long enough that I would catch it.

" Sure...give me a minute" she said instead, shuffling across the counter before pulling out a bunch of pills.

" Are you a teenager?" She asked.

" Do I, in any shape or form look like a snotty teen?" 

She swallowed harder. 

" It's just protocol. The instructions are at the bottom but I will advise you to see the doctor " 

I rolled my eyes, pulling out a wad of cash and stuffing it on the table. 

" If anyone asks, you never saw me".

The minute I got back home, the packets came off. I stuffed the pills in my mouth, downing it with glasses of water that left my stomach feeling bloated and i sat on the couch.

I had to get my man back.

My phone rang, this time, it was Vincent.

" So how did it go? Did you finally tell him?"

I snorted.

" No i didn't. I'm sitting on my couch right about to abort this shit from me. Your baby is dying before it even gets a chance to live, so pathetic" I said, chuckling softly.

I could feel his panic from the other side of the phone as he gasped, telling me to stay where I was.

But that was when the pain started, and then, the blood.

" Vincent..." I called into the phone, my voice blurring as the pain settled.

" Stay right there"

My vision began to slip and his voice from the phone grew muffled slowly, until I could no longer hear anything but the pain from my own being.
