The Cloaked Truth Series #4: Where No One Sees

🦋 LIII.

"Farah? Are you okay there? It's been like half an hour?" Sol said while knocking on my bathroom door.

I was shocked to see two red lines on my pregnancy test. My hands are shaking really badly and I don't know what to say and do at the moment. I bought three pregnancy tests and all of them were saying one thing. Pregnant.

"S-Sol…" I said, almost a whisper.

"Farah? Hey?! Are you okay there?!" She knocked on the door harder.

I didn't respond because I was already crying. I don't know if I should be happy about this or not because I know this baby will only be living through the dark and danger.

"Hey, I'm coming in! Thanks for leaving the keys in your bed by the way," She shouted before opening the door.

When she found me in front of the sink she was speechless. She saw the pregnancy test at the sink. I was crying while massaging my head.

"Farah… Y-you're...pregnant??"

I nodded. Napahagulgol ako ng malala sa harapan niya kasi ngayon ko lang naisip ang kapahamakan na nakaabang sakaniya. Sa magiging anak ko. Hindi ko kayang pati siya ay madamay pa sa problemang nasa paligid ko.

"Hey! Hey! Stop crying! Hindi healthy! It's okay, I'm here..lean on me, Farah. Both of you.." 'Di mapakaling sabi niya.

"Sol, hindi ko alam ang gagawin ko! Tiyak mapapahamak ang baby kapag nagsalita ako! I can't bear to lose my baby…"

"Shush… Let's forget about it for a while, okay? Maybe you should get dressed muna into comfy clothes? That one is mainit kasi…" She said.

But I can't even move properly. She dressed me up and cleaned my face while I was busy overthinking. She ordered us food, a healthy one.

"I can't let you eat your faves, lil sis. It's not healthy! I was wondering so much why you don't have healthy food that is somehow your favorite!" She said while preparing the food.
