This is already my second day in the hospital. Dona and Naomi take turns taking care of me, even though I don't want to trouble them. I feel guilty if one of them has to stay overnight to look after me. Although my headache is subsiding, the nausea keeps coming and going. The doctor said it's normal for the first trimester of my pregnancy.Talking about being pregnant makes me more determined. I feel a bit tired and I'm being taken care of. I feel a little nauseous, with an endless headache, and everything I eat comes out without exception. My activities are limited, and on top of that, the doctor says I have to do this and that. I feel exhausted."Don't space out, Anya." Naomi breaks my reverie. She came straight to the hospital after work this evening and stayed in my hospital room. She said Cedric wanted to visit, but I refused. Allowing Cedric to visit would be like allowing him to get closer to me. My mind wanders in all directions. What if I let him visit? He might not just leav

“Miss,” Cedric called, snapping me out of my daydream. The bottles of aroma therapy were already in front of me. I chose to sniff each one of them. As for the ones with flower images, I set them aside. They would make me nauseous for sure.My choice fell on the ones with a lot of Eucalyptus and Ginger. At least, their scent was relaxing when I inhaled them. Once I made my selection, Cedric smiled again. I couldn't ignore his effort, right? So, as an appreciation, I thanked him."I'm glad I can be of use to you, at least."I was taken aback for a moment. "Why?"I saw Cedric blink and look a bit embarrassed. I sat up straight on the long sofa while he chose to sit on the single one, right across from me."Uh... because you're pregnant, so I feel responsible for you.""So, if I weren't pregnant, you wouldn't be like this?" I don't know why I asked this way. It only made Cedric stare at me intensely. Ugh, why did I say that, Anya?!"Let's forget about that. Just answer my question honestl

I took a deep breath inside the car, making sure to replace the air freshener with a scent I like. I don't want to risk feeling nauseous or dizzy because of a scent I dislike. Oh goodness, seriously. This makes me feel like I'm changing my habits a little—or rather, a lot. Even when it comes to food, I've become picky. I'll only eat what I have in mind. If not, well... don't expect me to touch it.I arrived at the office basement earlier than usual. I need to prepare because I'm sure Krystal will ask all sorts of questions later. And I have to answer honestly, right? I'll just leave out the part about my plans. I'll make it seem like it's due to work exhaustion. Easy, right?Even if Krystal decides to fire me, by then, maybe the fetus in my womb would have naturally disappeared. Starting today, I'm determined to make it vanish as soon as possible. No need for pills or anything. Since my return, I've read many articles about the dangers of aborting at such an early stage. Especially wi

I even remember Cedric's words clearly, despite his face being partially covered by the cap. I don't know what he meant. Embarrassed? I'm the one who should be embarrassed! Not him! It just makes me angry!"I won't let you do anything strange, Miss."I pout. Especially when we arrive at the parking slot, annoyingly, he opens the car door for me, makes sure I wear my seatbelt, and adjusts the seat to make me comfortable. I don't want to thank him for his actions. This is my car, after all.I spend the time during the drive replying to incoming messages. It's not that I didn't want to reply earlier, but I felt so flustered by Krystal's behavior. My phone was forgotten when I wanted to send messages to Naomi and Dona. When I checked, there were many notifications from them in our 'DEWI KERANG' gossip group. The three of us are in the group.Naomi: Anya, eat already.Dona: Anya, do you want to get something for us?Naomi: Anya, answer, hey.Naomi: Should I buy some fruits?The messages we

My sadness lingered as I sat down at my work desk. Even when I tried to turn on the computer, I still couldn't stop thinking that Krystal would soon replace me. If that happens, what job will I have? Especially with my current condition!I even mentioned that terminating this pregnancy was the best option. My job would be secure, my financial situation would be stable, and Krystal wouldn't replace me so quickly. I've dedicated myself to every task all this time. I don't want everything to just fade away. No. No.So, right now, I'm truly determined. In the past, I had some doubts, weighing the pros and cons, but seeing this situation so clearly in front of me has erased any doubts. I want Krystal to understand that I love my job. Sure, she seemed attentive yesterday, but I don't like it when attention is given just to please me. Then, I might end up being replaced. I don't want that.I'd rather be overwhelmed with numerous orders than presented with a lot of snack jars.I wiped away th
