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 mu

Monalisa lifted her hand immediately against her cheek that had just been slapped, tears suddenly streaming down her face. “I am sorry aunt… I did not mean to do that…” she muttered, feeling her face hurt from the slap her aunt just gave her and her body trembling a little from fear.“You are sorry…” Annabel snapped, still glaring furiously at her and feeling nothing at all by the slap she just received from her mum. She was thankful for one thing though and that is the fact that her mum always protected her interest and showed her so much love and care especially in the presence of Monalisa and even though she taunt her whenever they were alone about how she need to maintain her physical body, she loved that her mum always did not hesitate to hurt Monalisa whether she did something wrong or not. “How dare you do a thing deliberately to me and pretend to be sorry about it,” she added, still glaring at Monalisa, wishing her mum would slap her again but saw that she was not ready to hit

“Monalisa…” a male voice called out to her, startling and making her turn around immediately too to see who had called her name.“Bret…” Monalisa muttered, sounding a little out of breath because of how frightened she was a moment ago and surprised to see him standing in front of her like this. He had also called her name which was awkward to her because he normally would not have called her name and wondered why he did. "Sorry Monalisa, I frightened you," Bret said apologetically, seeing the fright in her face."What?" Monalisa muttered again and this time glanced around her, wondering what was going on at this moment and why Bret was talking to her and so politely too. No one was polite to her before and that includes Bret, in fact he has never spoken to her before, not that he has any reason to, he was way above her class. Bret is the son of one of Aunt Lila’s wealthy friends, who often visits the house with his clique of friends and sometimes drops by alone to see Annabel who wa

Bret drove Monalisa back to her house a few minutes before the day became bright like he had promised he would, “take care of yourself Monalisa,” he said, wearing a sad face as she was about to step out of his car.“Thanks, Bret, see you…” she said in response and then stepped out of his car, feeling a little sad to be back to Lila and Annabel, as she watched Bret drive away again, she pressed her lips together hoping that it will not take long before Bret comes to take her away from here like he had promised her he would. She quickly went to sit down close to the front door of her aunt’s house, pretending to have stayed out there all night. It was still cold outside but she would stay warm with the thought of Bret, she told herself, feeling like the Cinderella who had gone out to meet her prince and had just returned home.About two hours later the front door went open. Monalisa quickly stood up from where she was seated to see her aunt Lila standing in front of her. “You are still h

Annabel giggled like a little girl, sitting back beside Bret as she waited for her other friends to show up at her house. "Why are you so excited?" Bret asked, wondering if she felt nothing at all after seeing that he made out with Monalisa, he thought that she had feelings for him but seeing her like this, made him wonder if he had been misled by her attitude and attention for him."You will never know Bret," Annabel said, smiling broadly like she has won some kind of award. "I cannot wait to see the look on Monalisa's face where she would realize that all this was just a plan that I had initiated," Annabel said, flipping her hair that had fallen over her face backwards, her gaze on Bret. She failed to see how disgusted he looked at her for a moment."Come on, why are you not telling me how it happened in detail, you know, I would like to hear about it," she said again, still giggling as she spoke."Well there is nothing to tell, Annabel, I have won the bet, that's all I think there
