Chapter Eighty-oneWorry. Concern. CareSebastianI stared down at my shaky hands, what did I just try to do? What have I even done? My heart raced with fear and pain, I tried to make the same mistake all over again.I just didn’t understand it, I couldn’t tell what exactly was happening to me.I rushed to the room, standing in front of the mirror, was this really me? How did I turn into this? How did I end up this way? My head ached and hurt so much, I couldn’t think straight at all.I looked down at my hand again, still shaking with no control, I almost killed Olivia, I almost killed her for something that was so unnecessary, I hurt her for what wasn’t even her fault. I was in this condition because of myself, I was in this present situation because of my past mistakes, but I was too weak to bear the pain and guilt alone that I had to push it on to her.I grabbed my aching head, shaking it, I have made a terrible mistake, I did something I shouldn’t have done, and I just couldn’t ge

Chapter Eighty-threeThe Sad And Great NewsOliviaI staggered into the room and fell on the bed, my head still spinning and aching, I didn’t know what to do and how I was supposed to care for myself.I stood back up and walked to my bag, I picked up my phone and texted Edie, he was the only one I could trust to not tell Sebastian and also take me to the hospital. I told him that I would be calling him hours later to have him come pick me up so we could go to the hospital. I checked the time and saw that it was still at the midday, and if I could get some hours of rest, I would go with him to the hospital later in the evening. After doing that, I laid back on the bed, pulling up the duvet to cover myself as I prepared to sleep, even with my head still aching hard.As I laid there, with thoughts racing through my head, I remembered what happened earlier that day and how I had a narrow escape, I remembered how Sebastian almost hurt me and how he came back after all that.I was glad tha

Chapter Eighty-fivePregnancy With ComplicationsOlivia I couldn’t close back my opened mouth, my jaw hurt from being down for minutes, but I couldn’t bring it back up. Not just the circumstances surrounding this pregnancy, it also has complications? And one which could claim mine or the baby’s life.I looked down at my stomach again, it was as if I could see the baby inside of there, and like I could communicate with it. Just at that moment, I made the decision that if anyone would be at risk, then it should be me, and not my baby.I had watched several movies and seen several series where just something like this happened and I would end up blaming the mother for making such decision, but now that I was in their shoes, I could tell the feeling. I was yet to see my baby, but just getting to know that it was there, I had already bonded with it and I couldn’t wait to carry it in my arms, but there was the complication.I looked up at the doctor. “No matter what it will take or cost, p

Chapter Eighty-sevenTaking His PlaceOlivia“Are you maybe jealous?” I chuckled.I didn’t plan to ask him that, it was what I was thinking but I didn’t even know when I asked him. I looked deep into his eyes and returned his intense gaze, I wondered what his response would be.He was acting like he was jealous and was bothered that I was with Edie, but he was Sebastian, he would never admit such thing, especially when it was with me.He shook his head and readjusted his tie. “Do you want me to be jealous?”I knew it! I already knew that he wouldn’t give a straight answer to the question I asked, he would try to create a way for escape.“Why do you want me to be jealous? You are just my wife, there is nothing else between us.”I knew that, and he had said it to me a number of times, I would definitely appreciate him not reminding me of such again.“I know, and I remember the number of times you’ve told me that, you don’t have to keep repeating it.” I murmured and resumed back to what

Chapter Eighty-nineThe CheatSebastian “Come again for the therapy in two days.” The doctor said to me and I nodded at her before pushing the door open.One of the reasons I had been staying away from the therapy the whole time was the fact that I would have to speak do someone, I would have to open up and tell them whatever it was that was troubling me, and that means I would have to tell them things I wanted to forget, things I didn’t want to talk about.I had been staying away from that until I got back the day before and I realized that I had to be a better person, I had to change my ways and make my condition better, or I would me even be a better father to my own kids, I had to do something about my condition.So, I went to the hospital and spoke to our family doctor who had done so well for the last few years by keeping my condition a secret, and he directed me to this doctor who would be the one in charge of my therapy till I was better.I stepped out of the doctors office a
