Amanda felt water all over her body the moment she woke from the nightmare, or was it sweat? She couldn't say.
Then, she sighed, she was glad it was only a dream, a dream she could not translate, she was not used to having dreams, why was she dreaming all of a sudden?But there was something significant about the dream she just had, in the dream she was light, free and very strong. She tried to remember what made her feel that way, she hit her head, as if that would make her remember, she looked around her, she saw her husband, sleeping next to her, he was definitely restless, but why was she so light in the dream, that she could even run? then she remembered, It was not so hard to note, she wasn't pregnant in the dream, but she was being chased by someone she couldn't really remember, she tried to sit up on the bed and she felt all heavy, looking down she sighed in a dejected way.She looked up at God, why would he allow things like this to happen to her, she has suffered enough, and she didn't deserve what she was going through.What was her sin actually? That God will decide to punish her in such a manner?She was dejected indeed, and really unhappy because the question she continued to ask herself over and over again have not been answered, she was supposed to have the answer to her question, but yet she, like every other person, does not have the answer to the question, she was supposed to be happy and sharing the happy moments with her husband Dave, who still managed to sleep close to her, but they are more like world's apart. She is pregnant but she couldn't tell who was responsible.She is even ashamed to say it out loud. How can a grown up woman like her, claim she doesn't know who impregnated her, even a teenager would know, let alone an adult. It made her feel like a prostitute, It was a mystery pregnancy.One may ask how can it be mysterious when you have a husband?but the story have only begun.Because even she also belives, that her husband Dave, was not telling her the truth.Getting married to Dave was something Amanda didn't regret, because Dave was everything she could ever want, he was wonderful and he genuinely cares for her. Though at first she was using Dave as a substitute or a rebound, since she couldn't reach the love of her life, the one person she could beat her chest and say she truely loves.That one man, whom she and her only brother sent to prison few years ago. She knew she still felt something strong for Dave, especially since Dave was able to fight with his family just to be with her.It is really funny how a family can just hate you without any reason, they would not want you as a member of their family, for all the wrong reasons.But Dave, he fought for her, and ensured no harm came her way, she felt really loved and wanted but looking at him now, she knew she couldn't possible ask for that devotion to their marriage, Dave was shattered and obviously not happy, he would always stare at her with disdain and so much hate, but how could she even blame him? After all she had starved him sexually, she hadn't been a very understanding wife to him then out of the blues she became pregnant.She could remember that after the first year of their marriage and she became pregnant, she was overjoyed. Dave was particularly very happy and made sure she didn't stress herself very much, he pampered her and treated her like a Queen, but all the happiness was shattered to dust when she was due and was sent to the labour room, she was there for hours, the baby refused to come out, she had never experienced such extreme pain before, she was so scared and worried, all her antenatal training couldn't be remembered at that point, she just wanted it all to be over, she wanted to be free from the pain, but it wasn't going away instead it became more Intense, then she was told she would be operated on, she wasn't especially happy about the turn of events, she was sad, she didn't want her first child to be born via a C-section but at that point, she had no choice, she wanted it to be over. Consent form was signed by her husband and the process started."I am scared". She confessed, Dave was there with her, he was being really supportive, holding her hands, and trying to make her feel they could do it together."Very soon, it will be over, don't worry". He assured her, and he watched with tears in her eyes, as they cut her open, in a vertical way, and brought the baby out.The Epidural injection taken could not allow her take note of anything, she was conscious, but she had tears in her eyes.This is not how she had planned to have her first baby, or any of her babies for that matter, but since it has happened like this, what choice, does she have.After 45minute or thereabouts in the operating room, Amanda opened her eyes, she could hear the cry of the baby."He is beautiful". Dave exclaimed, as he held the baby. She smiled and wanted to hold him too, she wanted to share in the joy of the moment.Amanda, was finally able to hold her baby boy after waiting for Dave to satisfy himself, with him. At that moment, Amanda's joy, knew no bounds. She fell in love instantly with him.Though she was very weak, and couldn't sit up, she still wanted to keep her eyes open, she wanted to just keeping seeing her baby boy, but her body failed her.She passed out from weakness. when she woke up the first thing she wanted to do was to hold her baby, she wanted to hold her baby and to ask him loads of questions, but she was greeted with yet another shocker.her baby was dead.The death of her son was a big blow to her, she could not believe he was actually dead."What happened to him? She kept asking, but no one was giving her an answer, she looked around her, still wishing she could get an answer, but the pain in her heart seem too much for her to even think straight at the time. The doctors all came up with one thing or the other, they always have something to say, she looked around her, but all she could see was sorry faces.It is indeed true, her child whom she held a while ago, was dead.She blamed herself for falling asleep, she probably should never have fallen asleep.She tried to scream, but each time she opens her mouth, the sharp pain in her stomach would shut her up immediately. She had no choice, but to sob calmly. Not wanting to think about what happened in the past, Amanda tries to move on, but she just couldn't get past it as the past reflected her present and would probably determine her future.She could remember vividly that the moment
The doctor was taken aback at her question, he gave her a confused look and since her expression didn't change, his suspicion was confirmed.This was really one mysterious couple, maybe they are not part of this world, or have mental problems,else, why would a full grown woman be asking him such stupid question. Doesn't she have knowledge of atleast the basic biology?How the hell, was he supposed to answer that 'oh madam, that strange young man that just left here, inserted his penis into your vagina and in the process his semen was released and you became pregnant' such dumb question from a dumb woman.He almost said that out loud, but didn't want to offend the distressed looking woman infront of him, and so he tried to fake a smile.Noticing his confused look Amanda understood that she hasn't asked the right question, so she stepped into the office and shut the door to give them some privacy." I mean how can I be pregnant when I haven't had sex with my husband?Now the doctor look
Dave was taken aback by her question.Was she trying to play defensive now? or was she really been serious.How could she even ask him such silly question, and acting all angry, when he should be the angry one. Why would she just walk into ask him questions, when he is the one who has loads of questions to ask her. He stood and moved closed to her, held her hands and looked into her eye."Amy, he called her fondly. Please tell me the doctor was joking, please tell me you are not pregnant because that would shatter me". Amanda didn't want to be confused, and she didn't want to fall for any truck Dave was coming up with.It might seem embarrassing for him to admit, that he raped her, but that would be better atleast, for we, she would not go insane.She shrugged him off and moved backwards to look at him from a little distance." I am pregnant Dave, and the doctor thinks you could have raped me so I ask again Did you rape me?Now Dave was shocked.Rape you? How could I possibly do that
Her question, was more like an accusation to Amanda, she felt like she was accusing her, and in other words, she was asking her a question.Amanda decided to take the other part of it. She took it to be a question, so she answered, looking straight into her eyes, as if that would make her beleived her."I would never cheat on your brother, it is not in my nature, I cannot explain this, and I am so ashamed, to even think about it or talk about it.Which is why I need your help, I don't know how this is made possible. I would never have believed, this was possible.I am well aware that I haven't had sextual intercourse with your brother and I couldn't have it with anyone.But how it happened now, that I am pregnant, is a mystery to me, I need you to help me, please". She was begging now, but her tears kept streaming down.Sonia understood that part, she had heard them, some night, arguing about sex but she had never thought her brother was being starved. She looked at Amanda and saw th
Dave went to meet with his friend Steven feeling all dejected, he couldn't really understand anything, for the past three month of Amanda's pregnancy she has been denying that she didn't deliberately do anything to cause her to be pregnant, but she is pregnant and there was no avoiding that, he couldn't just pretend like the pregnancy was his, when in actual sense it wasn't his, he needed to get a second opinion.All the while Dave had kept his wife's secret to himself and only a few persons knew about it, even his family members didn't know about it except for his younger sister who was staying with them and that one loves Amanda too much to want to expose her to either his mother or father.They wouldn't blink before throwing her out. He was confused alright, but he was willing to get to the root of the problem, if his wife claims someone must have drugged and raped her, then he was going to find out. If only he knew it was going to turn out this way, he would have raped her himse
Dave was so angry, he knew he should be careful while driving, but he really didn't care. He was going to drive, whichever way he chooses.Even if he has to break all the rules, he would. He actually, did break all the rules, at some point, he even thought he was going to die, but he still made it.He finally got home in one piece.Amanda was still at home, in their room, she was expecting Sonia, when she heard the the harsh entrance, she knew it couldn't be Sonia.she looked at the door, unaware of what to do, she was afraid she had left the door open, and recently there had been rumour of robbery incidents in the neighborhood, as she felt the footstep coming close to their room, she was about to stand up from her sitting position when her room door flung open."You bitch! You have been claiming you don't know what happened or how you got pregnant, but two month ago you were at Crystal bar with some guy. How dare you Amanda? How dare you do that to me, how dare you cheat on
She was hoping upon hope that he would recognize her and just talk to her, even her class mates thought she was lucky to just have him around most times, she would always tell them he was there to visit her brother, not her, but they still considered her the lucky one who gets to see a cute guy all the time.Good luck was know as a womanizer, he hardly says No to any girl who was bold enough to approach him, he was full of himself and very proud, but he couldn't deny the fact that he was falling for his friends little sis.The feeling he has for the girl couldn't be compared to the ones he was having at the moment, he tried to distract himself and not think about it so much because he knows very well what was coming for him.Maxwell would kill him, he would just skin him alive if he gets to know that he was as much as staring at his sister let alone claims some sort of silly love for her.But the more Good luck saw her he fell all over again.The more he tries to deny his feelings f
I really don't care, she shouted at the top of her voice, she was so happy, she had been drilling for a long time, she really liked him and she was sure he liked her too, she rushed to the mirror to take a look at herself, to see how she appeared infront of her crush, and she was angry at her look, she didn't even brush her hair. well she didn't know he was the one at the door, she tried brushing her hair and applying a wet lips bam on her lips she prayed he would come back and her hopes increased when she heard another gentle knock on the door, she was almost sure it is him, because her brother would never knock in a gentle way, her brother was too harsh, too strick and too mean. No wonder he had no girlfriend. She thought to herself.'Who would like aean guy like her brother, he was too serious about life, and would not give any chance to anyone.Good luck wasn't sure about what he just did. He was really scared, because, now that he had showed her just a little of how he feels, i
