“I’m pregnant?”
A smile crept at the corner of my lips as I stared at the sheet of paper in my hands.
I was two weeks gone. My heart was bursting with joy. I was fucking pregnant. I know pregnancy isn’t something I should be embracing this period since I’m just 18 years old and also a student.
I know my parents would be mad at me since it’s my dad wish to get me married to Grayson Dylan
A young billionaire CEo who partnered with my dad
once I’m done with college but I care less, my boyfriend isn’t the shitty guys that abandoned girls when they’re pregnant.
Albert
My boyfriend
is freaking rich and is capable of taking care of me and the baby. He has already promised marriage to me. I love Albert so much. We both shared a mutual feeling.
A smile played on my lips again as I touch my belle bump. I’m gonna become a mother. I couldn’t wait to share this with Albert.
I don’t know how he will react. Will his joy be more than mine.
I scanned at the result one more time.
Gosh! I’m over the moon.
“Miss….” The doctor said bringing me out of my thoughts.
“Huh…” I came back to reality and transferred my gaze back to him.
“You seems lost. Do you intend to keep this baby Miss?. I bet your parents will be disappointed. You’re still a student Miss Leilena. Your college education will be put in line if you decide to keep the pregnancy “ he said and I rolled my eyes.
It’s my life. If I intend to keep this pregnancy, that should my problem not his.
“Thanks for your concern doctor but I’m keeping the baby!” I said and watched his jaw dropped.
“But…your parents…!”
I shut my eyes as I cursed. I’m so dumb to have used our family doctor.
“You better not say this to my parents. I will tell them myself when the right time comes. Have a nice day doctor!”
I pick up my hand bag and without waiting for his reply, I turned and left the office.
A smile of joy and satisfaction lit up my face. I walked out of the hospital completely.
Tears of joy gathered in my eyes. With watery eyes, i caressed my pregnant belly. “Oh, my baby, I know your daddy will love you so much. He’s gonna give you all you ever wished for. I bet he’s gonna be the most responsible father in the whole wide world” I murmured to myself.
I checked at my time and noticed I have a class in the next thirty minutes. I shook my head.
I wasn’t gonna attend this class. Giving this news to my boyfriend is all that’s matter to me right now.
…….
I quietly made my way into my boyfriends apartment using the spare key I have. I was bubbling with so much joy that I might explode anytime soon. I quietly kept my bag on the couch. I was about climbing the stairs when I saw Albert doing that.
“Baby!” I sprang towards him with my arms wide open.
“Baby!” I whispered in excitement as I got to him and embraced him tenderly.
“What are you doing here?”He asked. I furrowed my brows and slowly broke the hug.
What was that supposed to mean?
“You should have called me Lena” he said sternly.
I burst out laughing. Was that a joke?
I now needs permission to visit my own boyfriend?
I stared at him. The expression on his face can’t be read.
“What do you mean?” I found myself asking.
“Lena….” he called and I frowned. Not babe anymore but now Lena.
“What’s this coming from?” I retorted, staring at his eyes.
“Leilena……” he called, avoiding my gaze.
“Stops fucking calling Leilena and tell me what’s wrong with you!” I wanted to yelled but it came out more like whisper.
“I’m….I’m “ he couldn’t processed his words and for a moment, I felt scared.
“Babe, I need you to talk to me” I muttered.
“I…….
“Babe!” We heard another voice. I raised my face to the direction of the sound and what I saw next shattered my heart. I saw a lady approaching us. She was putting on one of Albert Favour hoodies which barely covered her thighs.
“Babe, I’ve been waiting!” She said and she finally covered the space between us.
She stood on her toes and placed a kiss on his lip. My mouth went agape. My jaw dropped and to my dismay, Albert didn’t push her away. They broke the kiss and the lady turned to face me.
“Who’s she?” She asked, giving me a sneer look.
“She’s my ex” he said. His face didn’t hold any feeling of remorse, guilt or whatever.
Gosh!
When did we break up?. Did Albert broke up with me without informing me.
Thousands of questions were forming in my head.
“Your ex?...what!” I exclaimed in shock. I couldn’t process what he just said.
“I’m sorry Lena. I was going to come clean and tell you the whole truth but I couldn’t find the prefect time. Lena, this is my fiancée Cara” he said.
I felt the tightness in my chest. Hearing it from him hurts the more.
“I’m so sorry Lena. I think we should stop seeing each other and go our separate ways. I now have an fiancée as you can see…” he muttered all in once without stuttering.
Did he really mean it?
How could he do this to me?
“How could you?. How could you do this to me?” I questioned. He’s the only one I’ve ever loved. I trusted him with my own life. He’s someone I’m willing to sacrifice so much for but he dare betrayed me this way?’
Uncontrollable tears rolled down my cheeks as I stared at the both of them.
“No, this can’t be happening” I muttered in disbelief as more tears pour from my eyes.
“I’m really sorry Lena. You should go home and get some rest” he muttered.
My lip parted as my expression paled and my body quivered. I just couldn’t believe Albert could do this to me.
I remove my gazed from him and stared at the lady beside him. She has a victorious smirk plastered on her face.
I bite my mouth in anger. I can’t believe Albert ditched me for her. She was skinny and shorter than me.
This all feels like a bad dream to me and everything would be fine once I wake up right?
But damn!
My whole being knows this is no dream, this is reality and nothings going to change that.
Driven by rage, my hand flew across Albert fave given him a resounding sound.
My heart sink. That’s not even enough for what he just did.
I have been dating Albert since my year one in school. We have been together for the past two years. He was everything to me. We both love each other.
I just can’t bring myself to accept he’s indeed ditching me.
“I trusted you. Where’s all the promises we made to each other?. You were like the only family I have, but you dare betray me like this?
I paused as the tears rolled down from my eyes.
“What about your intention of get married to me ?” I asked but he kept quiet and fixed his gaze on the floor.
His silence was an unspoken answer.
“Just answer me!” I yelled getting pissed off.
“I never loved you!” He said at once. I was taken by his sudden outburst and felt my world crashing down before my eyes.
“I never loved you. I was only using you, I should have dumped you a lot sooner but then, where’s the fun in it?” He said
“You’re too naive and stupid, you’re too gullible and easily fall for peoples tricks.
What kind of a man would want a lady like you who has no sense of reasoning and is super foolish. You mean nothing to me and none of what we shared was ever real. Yes! I only wanted to you and dump you and that’s it!” He said.
I couldn’t believe it. Albert was only playing me all along.
“Y…..y…..” I didn’t even know what to say. The pain in my heart was indescribable. I thought he loved me. I had pictured a perfect future with him. I’m even pregnant for him.
How can I share this news?
If he could ditched me this way, will he accept his baby?
“Gross!”
It’s too much to take in once.
I felt a dull pain from within hchest; his words pierced “So glad you can finally see the truth for yourself. At least I won’t have to pretend to love you anymore” he said and I stared at him with my eyes filled with tears.
I felt a dull pain from within my chest; his words pierced through my heart, tearing it to smithereens. At that instant.
How come he says this words easily? . Albert loved me so much. His love was sincere, real and affectionate. I can feel it each time I’m with him.
How could he utter this hurtful and painful words without guilt?
Just how could he?
I clutches to my chest, breathing heavily as more tears rolled down my cheeks.
“You betrayed me!” I managed to say.
“ you’re a mister Albert! An animal that’s what you are. You made me waste two years of my life with you. You deceived me and used me and you say you never loved me. How is it so easy for you to do this to another human without feeling any remorse?” How is it so easy for you to stab some else in the back?. Just how?” I screamed.
“Please quit the whole silly talks and leave. Your presents irritates me already” Cara said.
“Shut up!” I snapped out and pointed my index finger at her.
“ you have no right to tell me to leave my boyfriend’s house.
You have no right or whatever!” I yelled.
She only rolled her eyes at me.
“Stop throwing a tantrum and get your worthless pieces of trash self out of here!” She yelled.
“We were in the middle of something when you interrupted. You shout leave since you aren’t welcome here” she snarled.
“I swear you’ll regret this Albert”I snapped in tears.
“Just get your fucking self out Lena and never return. The sight of you disgust me and I can’t put on with you anymore!” Albert said and I shut my eyes.
It hurts so much. I can’t even denial the fact. I really want to break down but I can’t do it right in front of them. I can’t let them see the satisfaction that they truly broke me.
Never in my wildest world will I think Albert could do this to me. I’ve never imagined it.
“Leave Lena!” His voice interrupted my thoughts.
“You’ll regret this!” I uttered, wiping my tears.
“Just get out!” Cara chimed in, she pushed me and I fell heavily on the floor.
“Argh!” I groaned in pains.
“That’s good for you!” She muttered. I couldn’t take the embarrassment anymore. I stood up and ran out of there as fast as I could.
Betrayed truly hurts more when it’s from someone you least expected and someone you love.
