Becky's pov Sebastian's words to Tony were the most important information I needed at this moment in my life. I collapsed onto the bed, tears streaming down my face. There was a wave of emotional healing washing over me, and the intense hatred I had for Kenneth vanished instantly. Simultaneously, I felt guilty for all the hateful things I had said to Kenneth. I hadn't given him any room for trust, and I had convinced myself that he was the worst person I had ever encountered. How would I face him now? I couldn't even trust my own heart, which trembled with fear whenever Kenneth looked into my eyes while speaking. I could see hints of truth, but anger overshadowed everything. However, silently crying on my bed wouldn't solve the underlying issue. I needed to call Kenneth. I was so confident that I had told him never to cross paths with me again. I had given him an impossible condition to meet. What did I expect when I told him that even if his mum asked him to call me, he shouldn't c
Becky's pov "I think my mum and dad are in their room," he said. "Are we the only ones eating this morning?" I asked, and he couldn't answer at first. He pointed at the food on the table. "This is what my mum prepared for you and..." "Where is she?" I asked, but when I received no answer, I went to his mum's room. He quickly said, "Is it necessary to call my mum?"I ignored him and went to knock on his mum's door. I knocked twice, but there was no response. When I returned, Kenneth was still standing in the same place where I left him. "My parents went out this morning to help someone in need. I've been looking for an opportunity like this to talk when nobody is around. I know you've been avoiding me since yesterday, and it really hurts..." "And I will continue to avoid you," a sudden annoyance came over me. I walked up to Kenneth, and he started walking towards me. When he saw me approaching, he stopped, and I stood a few steps away from him, so I could look into his eyes clea
Daniella's pov "Why would she get pregnant with Sebastian?" I scolded Becky over the phone, and there was silence on the other end. I had decided to call Becky when I got home from work. Last night, Becky called me and broke the news that she was pregnant. It was the worst thing I could have heard, and it broke my heart. "I wanted to terminate the pregnancy, but before I knew it, Sebastian found out that I was pregnant," she explained. "That's the most careless thing you could have done. Did you tell anyone about the pregnancy?" I asked. "Yes." "Who?" "Don't worry, the more I think about it, the more it pains me," Becky replied. "You shouldn't have shared such a secret with anyone. You didn't even tell me. Why would you be pregnant for someone you don't love? Someone you rejected his engagement ring? So, what are your plans? Are you accepting the engagement ring now, or what do you want to do?" "For now, his whole family knows about my pregnancy, and they are treating me with
Becky's pov After the first call from Kenneth, I had no desire to answer him. As I contemplated the whole situation, I realized there's a thin line between love and hate. Just a few hours ago, I was deeply in love with Kenneth, but now that the unthinkable had happened, the idea of meeting Sebastian and even staying at his house for a moment was unbearable. "What do you want?" I finally picked up his fourth call, and my tone was hostile. Yes, I had every right to be hostile, and he responded. "Believe me, I didn't tell Sebastian that you were pregnant."Then I decided to employ some of the psychology I learned in college during my early years and asked him this question. "You claim you didn't tell my brother. So, what's your opinion on my pregnancy? Do you approve of the abortion?" Kenneth wasn't expecting this kind of question, and he took a few seconds before responding. "No, I didn't want an abortion." "That's all I needed to hear. Please, stop calling me. I don't want your
Becky's pov I ended the call abruptly, feeling shocked, and stood up. "Oh my goodness! No, no, Kenneth, you can't do this to me. Why?" I shouted, unaware that my mom had been asking, "Becky, what's wrong? What's the matter?" I didn't pay attention to her. I couldn't hear her at that moment. I sat down and pressed my fingers against my chin. "What are you hiding? What's wrong?" My mom raised her voice, but I wasn't willing to tell her what had just happened. Then Sebastian called me a second time, and I watched the phone ring and then end the call. My mom noticed and remained silent, looking at me as I displayed a strange attitude. We both knew it was Sebastian who was calling the second time, and my mom was waiting for me to explain what was bothering me. "What's going on, Becky? How many times do I have to ask?" She spoke up. To make matters worse, my mom's phone started ringing, and I realized it was Sebastian when she showed me the screen. "What's happening? Tell me before I
Becky's pov "It was early last month," I replied, raising my eyes and looking at the doctor without thinking much of it. "What about this month?" she asked. "I'm still expecting it. Sometimes, it comes late..." "Expect it no more because, from the test we just ran, it shows that you are pregnant." "Pregnant?" My lips parted in surprise. "Yes, congratulations!" She extended her hand for a handshake. Without revealing my confusion, I shook her hand and forced a smile as I took the envelope. "You'll need to register at the antenatal unit." "Okay!" I stood up, and she continued. "The antenatal unit is in the building on the left." "Okay, thank you." I still had a sense of wonder in my eyes as I left the doctor's office. Being pregnant was the last thing I wanted at the moment, and even before leaving the doctor's office, I had already made up my mind about what to do. However, I needed to tell Kenneth, the only person I could trust with my secret. Just the thought of being pregn
