Helena
-ANASTASIA-
I had stopped listening to the doctor and had my eyes on a frantic Maria. Moving away from the others I walked over to her, somehow my mind kept telling me that something is wrong. But what could go wrong? Maybe Helena was being fussy so Maria brought her to me.
Yeah, that is the best explanation. I touched her shoulder, she turned to me and heaved a big sigh of relief. “Tasha... Helena is not well.”
I raised my brow before taking Helena from her, “What could be wrong? She was fine when we left her in the morning.” I said chuckling nervously. I touched her forehead, it wasn’t warm but she looked pale and wasn’t opening her eyes. “She doesn’t have a temperature but why is she so pale?”
Maria shrugged. “She was playing with her toy when it dropped from her hand, I thought it was normal but when I looked at her, she was on the verge of fainting. I picked her up and calle

-ANASTASIA-My eyes widened. “Ar… are you sure?” I asked trying to remember whether we used any protection, all the times we did it but I am not sure. I didn’t take any pills but about Nathan, I am not sure.“Yes. WE checked twice since we were shocked.” Should I panic? No, I am not sad, I have a life growing in me, in nine months I will get someone like Helena there is nothing to be sad only happy. But I don’t know if Nathan felt the same. “Anastasia, we took your blood with you pregnant that is not good.”I frowned. “How so? The baby is fine right?”“For now, yes but I don’t know about the future, because as you can see you have intense pain and that is not going to reduce. During the delivery you are going to have complications and anemia is something you will have to suffer throughout the nine months.” I smiled at him, making him raise his brow. &ldqu
The Inflammable Secret His Version of the Truth
-NATHAN-“Why did you lie to me?” She asked tears filling her eyes. I thought she was bothered by me not being Helena’s father but her problem was that I lied to her.Sighing I pulled at the ends of my hair, I was going to tell her when we went on that date but then she felt insecure and the day went with that. I tried many times but backed off afraid of her reaction. “I was scared.”She scoffed. “Is that the truth? Because Nathan as far as I can remember from the time, we met you have only been feeding me with lies and me, like a fool believed each and every one of it.” Her words hurt but I deserved it and I won’t ask her to take it back or apologize.“I am now telling you the truth...” I said trying to reach out to her but she stepped away like I was a stranger, this hurt way worse than when Jocelyn cheated on me and I can’t imagine the pain I caused her. “Anastasia
The Inflammable Secret I Love You
-ANASTASIA-Oof! All the bags were packed but I was only taking one with me, Nathan said he could send the rest to Philadelphia. No, he is not okay with me going but that is how it has to be. My bus comes at 10 which means I have to leave now if I want to catch that bus.I read my response to Philadelphia once again with a sigh. I guess I am happy with my decision, this is for the best. “Are you packed?” Nathan asked making me turn around and see him leaning against the door.Last night I thought he would not stay with me in the room but he did, he hugged me tightly almost as if I would get up and leave at night. Then again, I didn’t complain because I don’t know when I will get the chance to sleep with him again. “Yeah. Helena awake?”He nodded. I removed the shirt I was wearing noticing my belly, it was not showing yet, Dr. Melendez said I would have to wait for three months to see the bump but he sai
The Inflammable Secret Epilogue
-ANASTASIA-“There you go.” I said pulling the t-shirt over my three-year-old and as always it was a green t-shirt, the boy didn’t like anything other than green. He gave me a cute smile before jumping off the bed giving me a heart attack and ran off to the kitchen to steal one of the cookies that Nathan made the other day. “Don’t take more than one, Chris.” I yelled but I know that it is off no use.Hurrying I changed into a maroon formal dress and did a half up and down before getting out of the room. “Come on Chris, I have a reading to be done with and then we have to go to your sister’s play.” By the time I reached the kitchen I was panting.Chris had cookie crumble all over his face, “Mama can I have another cookie?” I looked at the plate, out of six cookies that were there only four were remain, I gave him a knowing look which made him pout. “Two mama, yummy dada&rsquo
The Inflammable Secret PROLOGUE
Tapping my fingers lazily on the countertop I waited patiently for the bartender to bring me my cocktail even when what I really needed was that beer. But I had to remain sane.Since I had the leisure of time I looked around the part of the bar I never visited because if I was here at any other time my purse would be ripped and yet I won’t be able to afford getting in. The blue neon lights were nearly blinding but it screamed rich in every corner. Even the drinks were double my salary. There were men in suits all around and so many women looking like models floating from one table to another. There was literally a waitress/waiter at everyone’s side and even they looked mighty rich. Overwhelming much?Yeah no doubt! But I had a job to do and not a one that I am fond of. Period.“Can I buy you a drink?” I looked at the man well more like a boy take a seat next to me. His blonde mop stuck to his forehead with cute sparkly black eyes but the
The Inflammable Secret Coffee
-ANASTASIA- 1 December 2019, 8:47 am. ‘Tilt your head to the east if you happen to live where the sun rises there and see the orange red sun rising by taking its time to come out of those white fluffy clouds showing the world its unbeaten beauty and bringing a tinge of warmth on this cold day. I have seen it today like every other day but one might wonder then what the difference in today and yesterday is? Obviously today is Monday and yesterday was Sunday! Nah, I am kidding my dear friends because today I can see a white pigeon in the clear blue sky basking in the warmth of the sun and as I walk along the sideway waiting for my best friend to come down, the smell of the tastiest pizza in the whole of New York from Delta Pizza wafts near my nose awakening all my senses. Just to those who are wondering about my address and putting on your shoes to locate Delta pizza, be at rest because I am still far away from your reach. I have seen a
The Inflammable Secret Red Headed Plonker
-NATHAN- “Stella, get me a new blazer immediately!” I barked at my assistant as soon as I stepped into the building. I walked straight to the elevator ignoring the glances of my employees but in my hurry I hit my head on the doors of the elevator. THIS HAS NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE!!!! I am sure Stella can see my anger because she frantically nodded her head and rushed God knows where. If I didn’t get a new blazer within the next 3 minutes Stella will be packing her box out of her ‘personal office’. I really think I am spoiling my employees with all these facilities or more like my father spoilt them beforehand. I removed the stained blazer and fixed my tie again. I could feel annoying glances at me and I am not pleased. "Is there a photo shoot going on?” I snapped and a few of them shook their head. “Then what are you all staring at?" I screamed at the others making them shake their heads and go back to their desks. Fury is the only emotion in m
The Inflammable Secret Clumsy
-ANASTASIA- “Monroe the assignment is high profile so I want you to take utmost care and get as much as you can.” Mrs. V said making me wonder why she is interested in me all of a sudden. The woman sees no one other than Kelly and especially I am a ghost to her until I trouble her enough to notice me. “You can trust me but what is the assignment.” I asked her curiously. Something like this could finally land me in the spot I have dreamt about my entire life. A full time reporter with at least two slots in a day. “You have...” the ringing of her phone stopped her and she signaled me to wait while she talks. Who is calling her so much? I walked towards the window and stared at our new board waiting to be hung up, The Daily. We were really famous and almost very New Yorker reads them every morning. Like I said my dream is to one day host the news and not just stand behind the camera and write up questions. Which I which a Chicago girl who had ro
