EVE

Agatha had shown me how to use the pregnancy test strip, then stepped outside the bathroom to give me privacy.

The test strip felt like it weighed a hundred pounds in my hand. My fingers wouldn’t stop trembling.

“Eve? You okay in there?” she called.

“Yeah,” I lied.

I did the test and finally forced myself to look.

Two lines. Positive.

For a moment, the world tilted. My stomach knotted, and my ears started ringing. I had lost my virginity to my brother’s friend, a man six years older than me and now I was pregnant with his child.

Keeping the pregnancy was never an option, I didn’t even want to think about what my parents would do to me, they were out of the country for now, but if they found out, I’m pretty sure they’ll be on the next flight home, and they wouldn’t come with comfort, they’d come with punishment

When I didn’t answer for a while, Agatha pushed open the bathroom door. One glance at my face told her everything. We didn’t speak. She just took the strip from

  • EVE’S APPLE   SECRETS AND SILENCES

    This chapter is going to have two different POVs, We’re stepping into a slightly faster pace now, so hold on tight.If you’ve been following along from the beginning, thank you so much for sticking with me through this journey. Your support means the world. 🖤xoxo,Mableewritings~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~EVEI had promised myself last night that I would tell Noah. That he deserved to know. That I couldn’t keep carrying this weight alone.But promises made in the dark have a way of unraveling in the daylight.When I found him in the kitchen, pouring coffee, my courage weakened. I couldn’t see his reaction or find out what type of mood he was in. As he had his back to me, his posture was stiff and guarded.“You’re awake early,” he said without turning.“So are you,” I murmured, tugging the sleeves of my sweater down over my hands. “You didn’t come home last night.”He finally looked at me then, and for a fleeting second, I thought I saw something soften in his eyes. But it vanished just as qui

  • EVE’S APPLE   THE SHADOWS BETWEEN US

    EVEI woke up to the faint sound of birds outside the window and the guilt of my fight with Agatha from the previous night. I admit I was harsh and I had lashed out at the only person who had been on my side from the beginning.The pregnancy was eating at me, emotionally and physically.It wasn’t just the weight in my stomach. Everything was happening at the same time and I felt overwhelmed.I had been counting the days, looking at myself in the mirror for changes no one else had noticed yet. But soon, they would. And Noah…I didn’t want to think about how Noah would react to the news.I rubbed my palms against my face and sat up. The house was quiet. Too quiet. Noah didn’t sleep at home last night so I was alone. Suddenly there was a knock on my room door.“Eve?”Agatha, I thought as I recognized her soft voice.I sighed, pulling the blanket around me before getting up to open the door. Agatha stood there, her hair tied back, she had dark circles under

  • EVE’S APPLE   EVE’S REALIZATION

    EVE It suddenly dawned on me that I was oblivious to everything happening around me. But how? I thought I knew Noah so well, and Ian, there was never a hint of him being part of anything dark or illegal. “You okay?” Noah asked when he noticed me staring at him for too long. “Hmm.” I forced a smile. “You didn’t have to end your call like that. Wasn’t it important?” “No, it wasn’t,” he said rubbing my head softly as he walked away. “Don’t stay up late and lock all the doors, I won’t be coming home tonight. Something came up at work.” Noah said giving me a sympathetic look. I didn’t respond, instead I started to think really hard. I knew Ian worked with a tech company, I never really asked the name of the company. I needed to find out what was going on, I didn’t like being left in the dark. I went to search Noah’s room for any clue I could find. But there was nothing, there was no way there wouldn’t be any document regarding his work. I searched his closet, under th

  • EVE’S APPLE   THE TRAP

    He knew it, Ian knew I didn’t get rid of it, but how? I kept it a secret, no body else knew apart from Agatha and I.He stepped closer, lowering his voice, as he slowly whispered.“Get rid of it, Eve. While you still have the chance.”The way he said it didn’t sound like an advice, not even a plea. It was an order. A warning.I decided to act ignorant. “What are you talking about?”“Don’t try to act smart with me Eve, you don’t want to know what I’m capable of doing” Ian said slowly walking towards me as I moved backwards.“You would have continued living your life like I didn’t exist, why are you here now? Bored of your new girlfriend?” I asked.“Bored?” He laughed, “and who said she’s new.” He said lighting a cigarette.His words cut me like a knife directly to my chest but I refused to show it, that was what he wanted and I wasn’t going to give him that satisfaction.My throat tightened, I was scared but I had to show Ian that he didn’t have any hold on me any longer. “You don’t ge

  • EVE’S APPLE   SILENT THREAT

    CHAPTER TENSILENT THREATI wasn’t looking for her, I told myself. Not really.But one evening, while I was scrolling through Instagram, I saw her, the older woman Ian had traveled with. Turns out she was some social media figure, her profile was like a polished magazine, expensive vacations, champagne glasses against sunset skies, luxury hotels that I didn’t think I’ll be able to afford no matter how long I worked.Her captions were short but suggestive, with hidden messages. “New beginnings.” “Forever looks good on me.” One photo of her hand resting near a glass of wine, a diamond ring glinting faintly on her finger.Engagement. Maybe not said outright, but the message was clear. Did Ian propose to her?The more I scrolled, the tighter my chest grew. I couldn’t stop. I went through every picture, every comment, every tagged location. There was no picture with Ian.Sometimes I closed my eyes and imagined walking up to Ian, demanding answers. Did she know about me? About the night

  • EVE’S APPLE   THE DISAPPEARING ACT

    EVEAgatha came over one Saturday afternoon, with her arms full of shopping bags, her eyes darting with the kind of excitement that usually meant gossip.“You’ll never believe who I saw at the mall,” she announced, collapsing onto the sofa beside me.I was half-distracted, scrolling through pregnancy forums I shouldn’t even be on, but at the mention of who, my heart picked up speed.“Who?” I asked, trying to sound casual.She smirked. “Ian.”The name alone made my stomach twist.“And?” I pressed.Agatha shrugged, but the look in her eyes told me she knew the effect this would have on me. “He walked past me. Didn’t even blink. Acted like he hadn’t seen me in his life. Cold. Like I was invisible.”Invisible.I tried to laugh it off, but my throat felt tight. “Good. He should stay invisible. He belongs there.” The sound of the front door opening made us both turn.“Noah,” I whispered, sitting up a little straighter.He walked in, still wearing his work shirt, sleeves rolled up, phone in
