Before I knew it, I found myself in a lounge.Sitting in front of a bar.As a surgeon, I disciplined myself not to drink.But I was craving a burn that would make me forget the hurt in my chest.“Non-alcoholic wine please.” “We don't serve those here.”I raised my gaze, a frown decorating my face.What kind of bar doesn't serve non alcoholics.“Then give me water. Or you don't have that too, and you'd rather me drink your piss?”“Woah, Diana.” A familiar voice came from behind me. “I didn't think you knew how to speak like that.”I turned, unable to pin point the owner of the voice.But it was eerily familiar.“Bradley?” My eyes widened, and before I could register about how he found me.Or why he quickly recognised me.I had left my seat and ran to give him a hug.“I was sure it was you.” Bradley gave me a bright smile, squeezing me all the same.“It's been a while.” I said, releasing him. A while?No, it had been six years.Six years since I insulted him and threw him out of my ho

Sirens filled my ears, but sadness had covered every one of my senses.I could barely recognise my voice.“Diana, it's mom. We have you.” I could recognise the faint sound of my mother's voice.Ahhh—It hurts.Everywhere burned.“Mom, they killed her.”“They took my child.” I sobbed. I wanted to go too.I wasn't strong enough for this pain as it ate through my every being.“Mom, please tell them to kill me too.”***********It had been three years. I walked through the hallway, my lab coat firmly placed on my body.“Doctor Amsterdam. The patient on bed five needs your attention.”“Doctor Amsterdam. The patient has paid fifteen million dollars for the surgery. You are the only one permitted to perform it.”“Doctor Amsterdam…”I donned my gloves.It was amazing how much difference three years could make in the life of a person.“Administer the local anaesthetic on the patient on bed five. It wouldn't be hard to perform an appendectomy.”My voice rang out, and the procedure began.Thirty

It was a shrill sound.The ringing in my head.I tried to imagine what was going on, but one thing was sure.My hands were tied, and I was not alone.“To think we got both of them.” It was an unfamiliar voice, and suddenly it drew closer.“I know you are awake, would cutting off your fingers make you open up your eyes?” I inhaled sharply, and my eyes took in everything in front of me.“You are making a big mistake.” I said through gritted teeth, “You don't know who I am!” But to my surprise, it turned out that they did.A man stepped in front of me, his lips covered with bushy beards.“We have arranged everything, you don't have to worry. None of your family would be disturbed.” I bit down on my lips.These people knew my family.“Do you want money? I'd get you as much as you need!” I said, desperation creeping into my chest.I couldn't lose my child, not now, not ever.Before I could say something else, another lady's cries flowed into my ears.“Miranda?” Her name left my mouth, t

The journey to my father's house didn't take long, and before I could even enter through the door, my father rushed out to give me the biggest hug.“Diana. You are finally back to your senses. I predicted this would happen.” He said to me and I could only sigh.“I'm pregnant, Dad, and Leon is the father.” I dropped the bomb.I knew it would shatter him, just like it was doing to me.But my dad gave an entirely different response.“That's even better. My grandchildren would be raised without a maniac like that.” This man said to my face.Didn't he think of what this means for my child?“Dad. You can't say that. What if he asks for his father, what do I tell him?”My dad looked at me like I was a broken animal.“His father wasn't fit to be with him. It's the truth. No sane man would leave his pregnant wife all by herself.”“He knows I'm pregnant.” I said, and turned away not wanting to discuss what had happened.“That shouldn't matter. The company has been waiting for your return as hei

“I'm pregnant, Leon. It's exactly what we have been waiting for—”The burn on my cheeks came before I could register what had just happened.For several seconds, I froze Did he just…Hit me?Leon grabbed my jaw and pulled me closer. “Whatever happened that night was an error, Diana.” His voice shook, like he was panicking.“A big shitty mistake! I would never sleep with someone like you.” My heart fell to my stomach.Someone like me? Then he released me, causing me to crash on the floor.I couldn't believe it.My fiancé had just slapped me.“Leon…” I was speechless, my eyes fixed on him, like a broken puppy.Leon was pacing about, his fingers running through his hair.It was something he did when he was stressed.But how would my pregnancy…No… How would our pregnancy stress him?Suddenly he turned to me, finger pointing in my direction.“I don't know what you did, Diana or what drug you used. But this is not happening! You will get rid of that thing.”Pain hit me square in the ch
