Morning sickness was a bitch, and a bitch who was making herself comfortable at that. I was rather happy with the decision to tell my family so early on, because since the first time I had noticed morning sickness, it hadn’t stopped. Every morning I woke up, made breakfast for Clara and myself, threw up whatever small thing I had dared to eat, and walked Clara

Chapter 22

Million Dollar Baby/Freya Lyons

God, I was tired.I knew that fatigue was a part of the symptoms I could be experiencing this week, Robert sent me week-by-week updates via text in case I couldn’t notice how miserable I was myself, but I didn’t think it would hit me this hard. I had felt similarly tired when I worked two jobs and attended high school. Except now all I did was take care of Clar

I opened the door before I realised that I could have just pretended not to be home. I didn’t want to believe what I was seeing. It was easier to think that she had forgotten all about us. She was much thinner, her collar bones were poking out underneath her tank top. Her hair was blond, though her roots that came down to her ears betrayed her natural brunette

Chapter 25

Million Dollar Baby/Freya Lyons

Though being pregnant with only one child had definitely put a damper on my mood, I did manage to find my mom a good program she could go through. They even offered delayed payments, which meant that I would be able to put her through it as I was building up a nice bank account with Robert’s money.

She seemed relieved, only adding to my suspicions that they did not even treat her properly when she was there. This had to be for the best.I was tired of it all. I had to juggle taking

Robert had signed us up for every ultrasound you could possibly get, though the one we had today was what would be the first one for most women. You know, the women who didn’t get pregnant by perfectionist billionaires. I spotted Robert looking at me from the corner of my eye. At first, I just shrugged it off, I was never the centre of Robert’s attention,

Chapter 28

Million Dollar Baby/Freya Lyons

It took me a full week to recover to at least a semi-normal state after hearing the baby’s heartbeat. I kept up appearances to everyone around me, I said my professional ‘see you later’ to Robert, I brought Clara to school and my mom to rehab, but on the inside, I was nothing short of a natural disaster. I was getting increasingly more freaked out t

Chapter 29

Million Dollar Baby/Freya Lyons

I did what any sane and well-functioning adult would do after going through some upsetting events, I bunkered up and hid myself away from the world.I convinced myself that this was better for me and the baby, I had been worrying about being way too stressed all the time, but even I couldn’t deny that this was just me being a coward. I did not want to face Kiara and

Chapter 30

Million Dollar Baby/Freya Lyons
