Chapter 10: Emotions
-
Aaliyah woke up tired and with a headache, she didn't feel good either as she rushed to the bathroom, emptying her stomach, she groaned, she brushed her teeth then took a shower, before checking the cabinets for aspirin, but there was no, she was also on her period so with a sigh, she got ready for work.
Aaliyah only had one pad, so she would have to go out for more, she didn't feel any pain on her period.
When she went downstairs, Antonio was already in the kitchen, along with Tia "Look who woke up." Her head was killing her.
"You let me get drunk last night." She states.
"No, you got drunk all by yourself."
"Did I say anything? you weird?"
"You said that I'm unreasonable hot." She laughs instead of being embarrassed, she soon regretted it as her head felt like it was about to explode. "You asked if we had sex, you thought we were in church and you called your spider woman and you asked which hair produc
-Chapter 99: Fruits & Mother In Law-About four hours had passed since Antonio had left, and honestly, I was feeling extremely lonely, but I knew I had to power through until this whole scandal had blown over."How are you feeling?" Tia asked me the second I answered her call, and I unconsciously caressed my stomach."Good besides constantly throwing up my food," I confessed with a bittersweet tone."Is Antonio taking good care of you?" She inquired, and her words only reminded me of his absence and my longing to see him."He's at work, but Maria's here with me." "I'm guessing he'd doing damage control?""Yeah," I confirmed while sitting up on my bed the sound I felt the urge to vomit rising from the depths of my throat."Do you think this can be resolved?" She questioned me as I brought the bucket that was located on my table to my mouth as I moved off the bed."Hopefully, I-" I began, but was interrupted by the rejection of my food that found its way out of my stomach and through
- Chapter 98: Sadness & Grapes - Hearing those words should have brought me nothing but joy, unfortunately, the only I was feeling was fear. It was the same fear I had when I heard Brittany say that the chances of me surviving childbirth were extremely low. "Aaliyah, are you still there?" I heard Tia which pulled me from my thoughts. "Yeah, I have to go Tia. I'll talk to you later." I immediately hung up before she had the chance to respond. "Is everything alright?" Antonio asked the second I placed my phone on the counter. "Sort of." He raised a brow moving toward me. "What do you mean?" "A few days I asked Tia to do a blood test on me..." This didn't seem to make his concern lessen as his brows were now pulled together showing both his worry and confusion. "What were the results? Are you sick?" I shook my head.
- Chapter 97: Call & Tia - Aaliyah’s P.O.V I wasn’t too shocked by his announcement because I saw the pictures of her baby bump earlier, but now that he admitted it I realized he didn’t just lose Lillian, he lost his baby. “How long ago was this?” My father asked, “About 3 years.” Antonio responded softly, looking very tired from all the questions and I wasn’t surprised as I would be too if I was being hounded like this. “Y—” My sister Isabella started but I spoke, cutting her off. “No more questions for tonight.” No one made a move to object. “Alright, we’ll go home.” My mother said as she stood from the chair she sat.
- Chapter 96: Video & Pregnant - Aaliyah's P.O.V I stayed silent as the video played as I was curious about the big secret this person had about Antonio’s family. ‘The Parker family have been known for their multi million businesses, they seem normal at first until you gaze into their background and family members. Raymond Parker’s niece, Ilaria De Luca is the leader of one of the biggest American Italian mafia in the states. He and his son Antonio Parker have been seen doing deals for her with different mafia families, including The Andersons and Petrovs.’ Many pictures were shown of Antonio talking to a tall, muscular man who had dark brown eyes and black hair who stood beside a woman with brunette
- Chapter 95: Date & Truth - Aaliyah’s P.O.V I stared at Samantha waiting for her to speak up and answer my question. Tia seemed wary of her presence after the things I had told her about Samantha, she unconsciously took a step in front of me as if to protect me if anything happened. I doubted Samantha had the guts to hurt me, but I also knew her obsession with Antonio would probably drive her that length. “Answer me, what are you doing here?” I asked once again this time there was much more venom in my voice. “I’m here for charity.” She answered with a creepy smile that had the hairs on my arms standing. “I don’t believe that for a second. You weren’t invited.” Samantha nodded walking towards the sink, resting her purse
- Chapter 94: Permission & Without - Aaliyah's P.O.V “Aaliyah, don’t worry everything will be fine.” Tia reassured me, “Yes, with the little time we’ve known each other, I know you’re a fighter and you’ll get through this.” Marcus added, making me grin expressing my amusement. “You both are acting like I’m already on my deathbed.” Antonio slipped his hand in mine. “You won’t be until you’re 80.” I raised a brow at this. “I don’t think I wanna live that long, it seems tiring.” He smiled, placing a kiss on my forehead. “I can’t wait until you two have children,” Brittany stated, with a big smile that made her husband roll his eyes as he took a sip of his wine. “In other words,
