Her Perfect Mate

Monalisa woke up to a sharp pain in her tummy followed by an indescribable pain around her waist. This was not the first time she was experiencing this and felt like it was going to stop just in the same way that it has done in times before.

She managed to turn in pain on her other side, her gaze unconsciously rested on the broken clock at the corner of her room. It was  barely one hour since she fell asleep, she said inwardly after seeing the time.

"Please let me sleep you wicked thing, unlike you I have to work in the morning," she muttered angrily,  lowering her gaze to her tummy, referring to the baby in her womb and wondering why the pain isn't stopping yet like it would have. 

"What is wrong now?" She muttered angrily again as she started feeling like she wanted to pee and the pain wouldn't stop. She constantly goes to pee lately and worst of all, she would end up having a very small leak with her bladder still feeling full. This is so unbearable for her. She did not know how much longer she was going to continue like this and what was driving her more insane was that she had to keep hiding her pregnancy like this from fear of what her aunt Lila might do to her.

Monalisa slowly sat up on her shabby bed, her hands unconsciously clapping against her tummy to help her sit up properly on the bed as she wanted to use the toilet but just as she stood up she felt some liquid flowing down her legs from her vagina.

"Oh damn you, wicked thing," she cursed at the child in her tummy again, feeling mad at it as she blamed the baby for making her pee on herself in her room for the first time. 

She shook her head slightly, her teeth clenched against each other as the pain in her waist and tummy continued to feel unbearable. She cannot even think straight right now, nor have the will to clean up the mess she has made in her room, all she feels like right now is to cry out from the pain she was feeling but she cannot do that here knowing her aunt Lila and Annabel was in the same building and would both come at her for disturbing their sleep.

Monalisa pressed her lips tightly together as she slowly moved away from her shabby bed and then managed to pull her long coat over her body to protect herself from the cold night as she thought of the perfect place to be right now, a place where she could scream as much as she wanted.

She picked up a bag she learned to carry about with her a few months after she became pregnant and the pieces of clothes she had used to tie her tummy whenever she was out to prevent other from seeing that she was pregnant, just in case she did not make it back home in time since it would be dawn soon.

Monalisa managed to leave the house as quiet as she could be, heading for the sea-side that was a few yards away from where she lived. Thankfully, the intense pain had stopped after she left the house allowing her to walk better than she did earlier.

"Wicked thing," she cursed at the baby in her womb again, angry that the intense pain had to stop after she left home when what she had wanted was to catch some sleep before dawn knowing how busy her day can be.

She had done all that she could to try and get rid of the child in her womb but nothing worked, which was how she ended up calling the child wicked thing and feels even worse whenever she ran into the father of her child who would always pretend like he did not know her or join others to make fun of her.

She cannot wait to give birth to this child and throw it into the sea as she had said she would whenever she goes to sit by the sea shore. 

Monalisa stopped walking as the pain slowly disappeared. The sea was a few steps away from her, she could already hear its wave even though she cannot see the waters clearly and now she was contemplating whether to reach the shore or to head back home to catch some more sleep since it was the dead of night and no one seemed to be out here, not even the werewolves, vampires or witches she has heard and read of.

She scoffed unconsciously, pushing the thought of werewolves and vampires away from her head as she was no longer scared about such things, reminding herself that they do not exist and were only stories made up by people, besides, this was not the first time she came out here by herself at night only not this late. She had sometimes wished that those stories were true and that she knew a vampire or werewolf, she would have pleaded with him to help her punish her aunt Lila and her daughter Annabel even if it meant that she would become his slave for life.

"That would have been better," she mumbled, since it would mean not serving her wicked aunt and daughter.

Monalisa turned around and decided to go back home but then the pain resumed again with much intensity this time.

She held her tummy in one hand and her waist with the other and screamed so loudly from the unbearable pain she felt as this was more than the pains she had experienced before.

She screamed again as the pain continued to intensify, and then slowly she lowered herself to the ground, feeling that her legs were unable to carry her body, that's when she realized something, there was blood on her legs.

"Oh no…" Monalisa gasped in pain as she realized that she was in labour. 

"Bret…" she screamed out in hate for the first time the name of the man that had put her in this condition. 

"Damn you Bret…" she cursed furiously, shaking her head sideways still in pain,  recalling how she was deceived by Bret and his cruelty towards her.

She slowly lay on her back on the ground in pain, still cursing Bret in her head, her life and how she got to this point suddenly started flashing in her memory…
