SIXTEEN
I am happy while waiting for Hunter to come home. I feel that his view of me will change when he finds out I am pregnant. We are going to have a baby and this is the beginning of a change in the course of our lives. My dream will finally come true.
I wondered what the gender of our baby would be. girl, or boy?
But whatever it is, I will accept it wholeheartedly. Whether he is a boy or a girl, still it is my baby.
I’m cooking dinner that Hunter and I will share later. For sure, somehow he will be with me. I’m pregnant so he should be taking care of me. So, Hunter will follow my orders. I’m not going to abuse it, I’ll just do it so Hunter can see my value. As a woman, as a wife, and as the future mother of his child.
I have prepared the food on the table. Hunter and Kyla are still out. I smile while thinking about the reaction of the witch. For sure she will get angry when she finds out that Hunter and I had sex while she’s in the US and has communication.
I’ve fixed everything and I’m just waiting for Hunter. I am now in the living room, I will wait here and I can’t wait to give them the good news I have brought. I still can’t believe I have a baby. There is life inside my womb.
Who would think that someone was breathing inside me?
There is a life inside my womb and I still can’t believe it. If only it hadn’t been clear to me what the doctor had told me earlier that I was pregnant. I can’t really believe I have a baby.
Holding the stomach I gently caressed it while talking.
“Don’t worry baby. I will take care of you, love you and make you feel special.” I smile then caressed my stomach again.
“You will be the one who will connect me with your daddy. You are the one I can claim for the rest of my life. You will be my foundation. You will be my life and strength. Just now, I will take care of you and fill you with love.”
I smiled then close my eyes. I imagine myself with a big belly and walking slowly while Hunter supports me.
Again, I imagine myself holding a baby. Taking care of the baby. Teaches colors, objects, numbers, alphabet. How cute it is. The sweetness feeling. I think I am ok now. Even Hunter doesn’t love me, as long as I’m with him to raise our child, I’m ok.
The door opened, Hunter and Kyla happily entered. They were still laughing but also stopped immediately when they saw me.
“Hunter, can I talk to you?” I smiled while asking him.
“Spill it,” he commanded like he doesn’t care.
“Hunter,” I handed him the paper result of my lab test. The full details of my pregnancy were indicated there.
Hunter grabbed the paper then looked at it. Emotionless at first but suddenly the eyebrows met.
“What is the meaning of this?” He asked angrily. Kyla also picked up the paper and read. “What is this?” I was confused by his question so I could not answer immediately. “WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS!” he shouted then tore the paper.
“Baby, Ley is pregnant?” Kyla asked incredulously. “And you are the father, did that mean then that—-” then looked at Hunter.
“Baby, i-it’s not what you think,” Hunter said, he would not hesitate to touch Kyla, but she immediately avoided it.
“That means that you and Ley had sex?” It’s a tearful question. “You lied to me isn’t it? so it’s true that Ley said that both of you fixing this marriage and I messed up?” she shouted then continued to cry while Hunter was taming him.
“Yes Ky, everything you said is right,” I said with pride because I know that Kyla is not really affected. She just wants to act because I can get Hunter now and she can’t accept it.
“Shut up!” Hunter shouted at me while pointing then looked back at Kyla.
“You betrayed me, Hunter. Why did you do this to me? Is it because you know I love you so much.” Kyla hysterically punched Hunter.
“Kyla please let me explain.”
“I gave you everything, I trusted you. Why did you do this to me? Don’t you love me anymore?”Hunter grabbed Kyla and hugged her.
“I love you with all my heart,” he said while hugging Kyla. “Ley seduced me. She always got me drunk, so, something was happening to us. I don’t want it, but every time I got drunk, she always pretended to be you and I always saw you with her.” Kyla looked at me while hugging Hunter then smiled like she wants to say that still she wins.
When they parted Hunter stroked her face and kissed her. “Please, believe me. I always missed you and Hailey used it, I grabbed the opportunity because that’s the only way I can with you.” Liar.
Now I understand that whatever I do Hunter doesn’t really care about me. He could destroy me face to face without considering my feeling. He makes me his bed warmer, I gave him everything, but everything turned out to be of no value at all. For almost three years I have suffered, but everything is useless. I still haven’t accumulated even the slightest bit of goodness or points in Hunter’s heart.
“I always believe you, babe, I know Ley more than you. She can manipulate everyone, but sad to say not us.” Then she looked bad at me. “If you think you can win over us Ley, then you’re wrong. I know how manipulated you are, so I won’t believe you anymore.” I smiled at her then approached her.
“Me or you? C’mon Ky, aren’t you ashamed of yourself? You’re rubbing your habit on others. Fuck you.” I stared at her. I wanted to swallow him whole and vomit in front of Hunter. How I wish I can do that.
“Don’t say any bad words to her.”Hunter held my hand tightly but I immediately withdrew it.
“Don’t dare to hurt me again.” Seems like all my sanity returned at these times. I feel like, I am me, the real me at this moment.
Is it because of the baby in my womb?
I can’t even hear my baby’s voice but I feel like it says I need to protect and defend my baby with these two evil in front of me.
