Leah's pov...
Jacob and Elizabeth were the ones that managed to stop the fight.
" Stop this!" Jacob shouted pulling Rachel away, and I could see her resist.
As much as I didn't want to show it, I was grateful we were separated because she would've beaten me.
It was a well-known fact, that Rachel was stronger than me.
He carried her to her house and Elizabeth took me inside.
" Leah, why would you fight with her, I thought you said she is your sister?" She mocked sneering.
" She is so stupid, can you believe she came here and slapped me?" I explained sitting down.
" I know," she said sitting next to me," your sister is so disrespectful and wicked,"
" She has crossed it this time, am going to make sure she pays," I promised, grumpy.
" And I can help you," she offered looking at me with a smirk.
" How?"
"Remember the offer I told you about last time?" She challenged, making me recall it clearly.
" Yes I remember," I answered nodding.
" Good," that evil satisfied smirk, always gave me goosebumps.
******
I had arrived home that night, making sure not to make any noise.
I stood near Rachel's bedroom window and removed the powder I was given.
" Rachel, you have chosen to disrespect me as your elder sister because of Jacob. This marriage has been hell because of you and you made my husband slap me. You decided to fight me, and
for that reason, I am closing your womb, you will never hear the cry of a baby in your house. This marriage will be hell to you and the same Jacob will turn from you," I said and blow the powder in the direction of her window as instructed.
I ran to my house immediately before anyone could see me.

Rachel's pov.....
I felt a sharp pain in my stomach, that made me wake up.
" Ouch," I cried sitting up.
" Babe are you ok?" Jacob asked sitting up as well.
" I just felt a sharp pain in my tummy," I answered holding my stomach as I could no longer feel it.
" Do we need to go to the clinic?" He asked holding my stomach.
" Unfortunately I can't feel it anymore," I answered and slept back on the bed.
" Are you sure?" He asked, looking at me worried.
" Let's just go back to sleep, am fine," I said pulling him to sleep.

Two days later...
" Babe you cheated, You can't win three times, "I complained blowing my cheeks upset, as we were playing a game of cards with Jacob.
" Am just good," he answered, laughing at my cheeks that had become pink in annoyance.
" It's not funny," I cried as he continued laughing.
Before he could say a word, we heard a knock at the door," are you expecting someone?" He asked me.
I immediately shook my head in decline.
" Come in!" We both shouted.
Leah walked in immediately, causing me to gasp.
It had been two days since our fight and I never talked to her or stopped to look in her direction, seeing her in my house, really shocked us.
" Leah?" I called amused.
" Good afternoon," she greeted, still standing by the door.
" You are welcome, please sit," I said standing up.
At that point, all my anger suddenly vanished.
" Thank you," she answered and sat on the sofa near the door.
She was so humble and it somehow made me worry, did she regret it? But that was unlike her.
" You sit as well," Jacob said pulling me my seat.
" Rachel, I came to apologize for what happened on Monday," she said shyly looking at her hands.
" No Leah, you don't have to apologize for anything, I was wrong to come to your house and storm at you like that," I told her and walked to her seat.
" No Rachel, I have been a very bad person to you, when you have done everything to make me happy, am sorry, I promise from now onwards, I will be better," she promised, smiling.
" It's all in the past," I assured her returning her smile.
" And my husband," she said, staring now at Jacob," am sorry, I promise to be a better wife,"
"As Rachel said, it's in the past," he assured her, causing me to smile.
" And for our husband?" I said, causing her to stare at me," we are going to share him equally," I suggested.
" I should leave," Jacob said standing up, and walked out, causing us to laugh.
" One week in my house and the other in your house, it's going to be like that from now onwards," Said and she looked at me amused.
" You are going to be managing alone in the house?" She worried.
" Come on, do I fear anything? moreover, very soon, I will have children to keep me company," I said giggling at the thought of having my own children.
" If you say so," she smiled
