Jasmine's POV "NO, NO, NO! I CAN'T BE PREGNANT. Doctor, with all due respect, you have me confused with another patient. I'M NOT PREGNANT!" I screamed at Dr. Shannon once I had recovered and she told me the news again. "Jasmine, please relax. Take deep breaths. I know sometimes these things are hard to process, especially when you were not planning," she replied while adjusting the pillow underneath my head. "I just don't understand. I took two pregnancy tests. TWO! And they both showed negative," I recalled the pregnancy tests Zenia picked up for me when we went grocery shopping. "Well, I honestly don't know what faulty pregnancy test you picked up, or if you didn't follow the directions carefully. Or, in medical terms, some women's bodies produce mixed hormonal signals and sometimes a pregnancy test cannot be accurate. Stress is a great factor for doing such. "So, that's why some women, when they think they're pregnant, p

Jasmine's POV "Pack my things?" I asked for the second time. "Did I stutter?" he asked. He turned the car engine off and opened his car door. I remained seated. I felt numb. "Jasmine," he called me as he came around my side. He opened the passenger's door and stood there, waiting for me to get out. "Why do you want me to move into your house? I'm very comfortable and happy at my own apartment.""Jasmine, you're having my kid. You've been talking crazy about adoption and abortion. Do you think I'll be comfortable having you away from me with the baby inside you? You're moving into the mansion where I can keep a closer eye on you and the baby.""But you're at work all the time!" "Jasmine, I'm not going to fight you on this any longer. Get yourself upstairs and let your sister assist you with packing." "I don't want to leave my sister and my mother," I protested as the tears came welling up

Jasmine's POV I sat down on my bed, in one of the guest rooms, combing my hair before tying it up in a bun to get some sleep. I left a window open so the cool air came in as I threw myself, face down, onto the bed. I felt lonely and sad that this was what Evan and I had come to. I never wanted this much separation.A single tear fell from my eyes and was sucked up by the bed sheets underneath me. A knock came on the door, suddenly, and startled me a bit. I rolled over on the bed and, standing on my feet, I went to open the door as the knock came again. "Hi," he said as he came into my room and began looking around. This was so unexpected but like him. "Hi," I answered him back and looked at his every movement. "You like the room?" he asked me. "Yes. It's comfortable and I'm warm," I answered. He came closer to me. So close that his body heat warmed me even more. I took three steps b

Jasmine's POV I continued my shopping as normal without making a scene with Bradley and his baby's mother. I had my own child to worry about and better things to do than getting into an argument with a liar. I already knew the truth, and saw the truth, and that was all that mattered.I was so excited to become a mother and to have my baby in my arms. Motherhood was becoming a beautiful thing to me, and I also knew it wouldn't be smooth sailing, but I was definitely up for the challenge. I was so happy Zenia went to Evan and he talked some sense into me. I would've had an abortion if he hadn't shown up at my apartment that day. I cussed myself mentally. I was so stupid, and I was such a coward, but as the days went by with my baby inside me, I knew I was getting stronger and stronger and I'd eventually stop loving Evan and move on with my life. There was just no way Evan would let me move on to another relationship with his baby i

Zenia's POVI rode in the back of the ambulance and listened to my sister groan from the excruciating pain. All I was thinking about was the baby inside of her and how much it would devastate her if something terrible was to happen. Jasmine had adapted to the pregnancy and the motherhood she was about to face. Two days ago, she had called me and told me she was extremely grateful to have me as a sister and everything was going smoothly with her pregnancy, and how much she could picture me being a bad ass aunt to her child. I smiled at that thought.The ambulance came to a halt and the doors flung open. Jasmine was carried through an emergency entrance and I tailed quickly right behind her. I was stopped by other doctors and medical staff when I followed them into a room."You'll have to wait out here, ma'am. No one is allowed in this room." I was pushed outside the room before the doors locked in my face.I paced the floor
