The Fight

010

Vanessa stared at Andrea and Miguel in confusion, is this bitch trying to seduce my man again?

“I asked a question.” She yelled, her voice cutting through the room slowly.

Andrea’s hand loosened around Isabella at once. He pushed her away without looking at her. Isabella stumbled back, her palm brushed against the bed for support. 

Vanessa’s eyes moved to her.

“Oh,” she said, her lips curving slightly. “The little witch. Why is she crying?”

She asked as her gaze dropped to Isabella’s face, then to her swollen eyes,trembling lips, and the tear stains that still clung to her cheeks.

Isabella did not reply, she only smiled faintly because she was tired of everything happening.

“Enough.” Andrea said, his voice coming out sharp.

Vanessa gasped, one hand instinctively flys to her chest as if she was heartbroken .

“Why are you shouting at me?” she asked softly. “Why are you suddenly defending her?”

Andrea turned fully to face her. “Why are you here?” he asked.

“To see you, of course.” Vanessa stepped closer, her heels clicked softly on the floor.

 “You haven’t been taking my calls, you haven’t even replied to my messages. I got so worried.”

She tilted her head, her face few inches apart from Andrea, Isabella knew she was trying to get her jealous on purpose, but who cares, both of them deserves each other.

“I thought something bad might have happened to you,” Vanessa continued. “Or maybe this tiny witch here poisoned you.”

Vanessa said and laughed lightly, like she had just made a harmless joke.

Isabella’s fingers curled slowly into her palm, she was extremely upset, but she said nothing, she only kept smiling, with dull eyes dull.

“If you don’t have anything important to say,” Andrea said, “just leave.”

Vanessa’s smile dropped instantly. “Is this how you talk to me now?” she asked. “In front of this whore?”

Isabella watched as Andrea clenched his fist, why is he acting upset now, hasn't he also called me whores countless times? She couldn't bring herself to understand Andrea's attitude, one minute he was nice and the next, he was back to being the ruthless Andrea.

“Anyway,” Vanessa said quickly, waving her hand, cutting into Isabella thoughts.

“That’s not why I came.”

She placed a hand on her flat stomach and lifted her chin proudly.

“I’m pregnant.” she said

For a second, the room went quiet like someone had dropped a bomb.

The words sounded unreal to Isabella's ear.

“Wow,” Andrea said calmly. “Really? Congrats.”

Vanessa’s face brightened at once. A wide smile spread across her lips.

“Thank you,” she said happily, stepping forward and wrapping her arms around him. “I knew you would accept it.”

Her body pressed against Andrea, but he pushed her away instead. Vanessa staggered back, shock written all over her face.

“Wait,” Andrea said slowly. “Whose child did you say it was?”

Vanessa laughed nervously. “Yours, of course.”

“Then abort it.”

“What?” Vanessa whispered.

Even Isabella’s mouth parted slightly, her eyes widened, she had not expected those words,not from Andrea, after all, they were lovers.

“You can’t be serious,” Vanessa said, shaking her head. “You want me to abort my baby? How wicked can you be?”

Andrea’s face remained cold, and without another word, he grabbed Vanessa by the arm and dragged her out of the room. The door slammed shut behind them, leaving Isabella alone.

Isabella crawled from the floor and sank slowly onto the bed, her heart was pounding so hard it hurt. She wrapped her arms around herself and stared at the door.

Outside…

Andrea shoved Vanessa against the wall.

“Listen to me,” he said, his voice was low and dangerous. “And listen very well.”

Vanessa’s back hit the wall with a dull sound.

“If you know what’s good for you,” Andrea continued, “abort that child. Or I will force it out myself.”

Vanessa stared at him, her eyes wide. “What?” she shouted. “Because of her?”

“ Why don't you tell her to abort her baby too? Huh? Who am I to you really? “ She flared up.

“I already made that clear to you from the start, besides, we were always using protection, how could you get pregnant?” Andrea asked.

Vanessa laughed bitterly. “I am not aborting my baby, Andrea, and there’s nothing you can do about it.”

Andrea ran out of patience , he grabbed Vanessa by the neck, choking her, like he always did to Isabella whenever he wants to make somethings clear to her.

“Listen carefully,” he growled.

 “Abort that baby and get out of my life. I’ll pay you. Say no…” His grip tightened more.

“And you’ll regret your existence.” He released her suddenly.

Vanessa collapsed to the floor, coughing hard, she clutched her throat as she struggled to breathe. Andrea turned away, and walked off without looking back.

Vanessa remained on the floor, gasping to catch her breathe, Andrea had never treated her like this, she knew her relationship with Andrea was based on pleasure but she never had the idea that Andrea would reject the pregnancy and opt for an abortion , her eyes burned with anger, and hate.

“This is all your fault,” she whispered to no one in particular.

“If I am going down, Isabella you are going down with me” she stood up and without thinking, walked toward Isabella’s room.

She pushed the door open. Isabella was lying on the bed, her eyes were half-closed.

Vanessa rushed forward and grabbed her by the hair.

“This is all your fault, you bitch!” she screamed, slapping Isabella hard. 

“Stop it! You’re hurting me!” Isabella begged, trying to push Vanessa away.

But the pain in her scalp made her weak, as Vanessa kept on pulling, each pull sent sharp pain through her head. Her hands trembled as she tried to fight back.

Vanessa slapped her again, and again.

By the fourth slap, Isabella collapsed back onto the bed, her vision spinning.

“You took everything from me!” Vanessa screamed. 

“You think you can have your child and make me lose mine? How foolish”

“I’ll show you!”

Vanessa attempted to slap her , but with the last strength left in her body, Isabella pushed her.

Vanessa fell , and her waist hit the tiled floor with a loud sound.

“Ah!!My baby!” She screamed in pain.

Isabella did not realize the effect of the push until she saw blood flowing from between Vanessa's legs, Vanessa's scream echoed through the room, then her eyes rolled back, and she collapsed.

On the other hand, Isabella’s vision blurred from the numerous slaps and hair pulling , the room began to spin before her and her ears rang loudly, suddenly,her body went limp, and she fainted on the bed.

Two pregnant ladies passing out in the same room, what do you think will happen next?
