Chapter 17

It’s just been 24 hours, me knowing that I am really pregnant; now, she is saying that there is a huge chance of miscarriage. I’ve just started talking with my baby, I can't lose him and I won't lose him. I love him so much. I'll do whatever it takes to get him, I will get him. I can't lose my child; I placed my hand on my stomach.

"Don't worry, this can be changed if you take some precautions" she said and patted my shoulder. So there is hope, I'm not going to waste this; I'll bring my child to me.

She gave me some medicines, do's and don’ts, food plan and asked me to visit every 15 days. I thanked her for giving me hope; she smiled with a sign of hope. What should I do now? There is hope. Come ‘on Ell you can do it, you can bring your child to you. I've encouraged myself and went to a restaurant nearby.

I have ordered some food. I sat on a chair placed my hand on my stomach "I'll get you my baby, Mummy will. Mummy loves you” I said, I hope I’ve encouraged him. I have to stay strong but, I can't stop my tears.

Someone patted me on my shoulder, that touch, it's his. I turned towards that person and hugged that person, I can be wrong, but I can't stop myself in their arms .

"Elena, what happened, please tell me, is everything okay?" he asked with frightened voice

“Baby is weak, baby is too weak" I said in midst of my crying, I'm on his chest.

"What baby? Whose baby? Elena please tell me" he asked, but I didn't reply, I want to speak but I can't, I am filled with tears

"Baby will be fine Elena, don't worry" he said and tightened his grip around me. I stayed in his arms cried, cried and cried, don't know how long. I slowly moved away from his arms, took a tissue paper from the table and wiped my tears. I looked at that person, hoping it to be him. I am damn correct, it is him. I don’t know how, but I know it is him.

"Are you okay now?" he asked, I nodded, he gave me some water. I cleaned my face with tissue paper.

"Okay, so whose baby is weak Elena?” he asked

"Ours" I replied slowly without looking into his eyes

"WHAT? WHOSE? WHEN? HOW?" he stammered, I know he will be shocked, I too was shocked, I looked him with my obvious face.

"Sorry" he apologised, we stayed like that without talking

"Please don't tell me that you are going to abort" he said

“What? No, I'm not" I replied, this conversation between us is very awkward.

"Thank you" he said and planted a kiss on my forehead, he is not sad about this.

"I thought you would be against it"

"What? Why would I be?"

"You said, you don't want to make me pregnant" I said slowly

"So?"

"So I thought, you don't want me to be pregnant"

"I said that, because you damn made that night as One Night Stand" Did I? Was it? I didn't reply. I looked away as possible as I can.

"Did you see a Doctor?" he asked, I nodded

"What did he say?"

"She said I am weak and the baby is too" I replied

"Any medication?”

"Some medicines and food diet" I showed him the prescription, he looked at it carefully.

"Okay, why are you crying?" he asked

"She said there is a huge chance of miscarriage" My tears started again.

"Don't worry we will overcome this" he said and wrapped his arm around my waist, pulled me towards him and kissed my forehead. We? When did that happen? We had our dinner. He didn't say anything.

"Got all the medications?” I nodded

"Okay I'll drop you home Elena" he definitely is not asking

"I can go" I replied

"No, I'll drop you" his voice is very commanding, I want to protest but I don't think I can drive, so, I nodded

"Where is your car" I pointed at the parking

"Black one from that side" I said and gave him my keys. I told him the directions to my house and we reached. On the way he bought some supplements. He opened the door for me, took the things from my hand and closed the door. I invited him inside, this is more than expected but, I can't do anything.

"So you live here" he asked, I nodded. Inside, Nat sat on sofa and watching TV, she looked at me and raised her hand to say hi, but her eyes turned beside me towards him in shock, I think. I’ve never brought a guy, he is the first, definitely 'THE FIRST, MY FIRST', I smile silently.

"Where should I put these" he asked. His both hands are filled with bags; I showed him the table apologetically. I didn't expect this from him. I looked at Nat, she is still in shock, I rolled my eyes.

"This is Nat, Natalie my friend" I introduced her to him

"He is Mr. First" I bite my tongue, how can I say that name, I really want to slap me hard.

"Hi, I am Jacob and Mr. First, only to her” he introduced himself to Nat while wrapping his hand around my waist; he pulled me closer to him and winked at me. I blushed. I can sense Nat's eyes on me, but I didn't look at her. We sat on the sofa, they both had a conversation I don't know about what, but his hand is still wrapped around me.

"At what time should I come?" he asked

"What?"

"To drop you at your office" he pulled me closer to him. Wait, we didn't talk about this.

"Why would you?"

"I've already told you Elena, I'll pick and drop you" he said commanding. Why he is commanding me, no one has ever commanded. I was about to protest but Nat stopped me with her pleasing eyes.

"Please Elena, let me take care of you" he pleaded, I think he saw our sign conversation, I nodded

"Thank you” he gave a peck on my forehead. I nervously looked at Nat, she is smiling

"What time?"

"9:30"

"Okay then Elena" he hugged and kissed me. I wanted to protest his actions but, my inner me didn't want to “See you in the morning” he winked and left.

"Mr. First is dam Hot and Handsome, babe" Nat said with surprise and we both giggled.

"Where did you meet him?”

“At the Hospital”

“Why, what happened?”

"I am pregnant" I said

"WHAT???!!!!!!"
