Till The End / LTM ONESHOT

They did not know how much time had passed since they were staring at those two lines. For the first time in their life, both Eda and Serkan did not know how to react.
A feeling unknown and unfamiliar
Serkan had his hands entwined and pressed against his lips, not in anticipation but fear. On the other hand, Eda was shaking with anxiety feeling the urge to grab her depression pills. They were experiencing the worst moment of their life but it was so unfamiliar that they did not even know how to react or what to say.
Fate did them dirty this time
The red lines.
Two red lines told Eda and Serkan that their fears have come true. Serkan hid his face in his hand letting out a sigh of despair while Eda remained paralyzed, still holding the pregnancy stick in her right hand, and her gaze stuck on it.
Humans tend to react to situations accordingly because somehow they've imagined or predicted it but Eda and Serkan never gave it a second thought that they'd be living to see this nightmare together.
'Fuck.' Eda grunted in anger after gaining back some of her consciousness and throwing away the pregnancy stick that was screaming at her for the reckless decisions and actions in the past.
She took a cushion and threw it at Serkan who had neither uttered a word nor shown a reaction.
'Stop it, are you crazy?' He grimaced without raising his voice at her.
'You're an asshole. You ruined my life Serkan Bolat. You ruined my life again....... I should've shot you that night.'
'I'm sure it wouldn't have stopped you from getting pregnant.' He reasoned logically, crossing his brows like he always did after making a logical claim. Eda violently threw the box of her pregnancy stick along with it at Serkan that hit him exactly above the head.
'SHUT UP. SHUT UP SERKAN BOLAT'
' Bak , I'm not exactly happy to know about your pregnancy either but for the love of your own life, calm down and let me think what we have to do.'
He knew they were in a big hot mess and this was worse than knowing Eda entered his life for the sole purpose of killing him. He knew he had to maintain his stature but to his dismay, his inner turmoil was stronger than him. This was a huge fucking deal. The woman in front of him, who was about to pull the trigger in his heart a few days ago was now standing in front of him with her hands on her hips, eyes blinking with rage, and a life breathing inside her- A life that was linked to him and not even in his wildest dreams he would deny its responsibility. Their no-strings-attached relationship couldn't resist more strings after all.
Eda's violent behavior was not working in his favor. Even if he could manage to muster the courage to handle this situation, handling Eda was worse than this news itself.
'Don't tell me to calm down!' She yelled again with flaring nostrils but he could see her eyes brimming with tears now.
Was she crying?
'We need to go to the doctor first.' He reasoned logically
'Are you fucking kidding me? I haven't slept with any man since I met you yet you are taking me for a paternity test to get away with this

'I don't think pregnancy affects a woman's brain cells but I guess you are an exception. I KNOW this is mine and I'm not denying Eda even though I don't even remember when it happened or how it happened.'
He shouted back in the same tone, not able to contain this time. He nodded at her flat stomach and noticed that there was no bump showing as of yet. She was wearing a crop top and her belly was painfully visible.
Eda snorted at his 'how' and answered him back sarcastically,
'Of course, you didn't know! You must've drugged me or something after knowing I was going to kill you and planned to trap me like this to get away. But mind you Serkan Bolat I won't let anyone or even this child come in between my revenge.'
The last part even sounded ridiculous in her head. They were stuck with a new problem and she was still bothered about revenge . It wasn't about whether she wanted revenge or not, she could not carry it out because unfortunately Serkan and Eda were a team now, only if for a short period of time.
"Are you done? We will discuss your sweet plans later but now I need to know if you're actually pregnant or not." Before Eda gasped to say something Serkan cut her short and said,
"We need to be sure. Lütfen."
🫀🫀🫀🫀🫀🫀🫀🫀
They had been driving for more than an hour now, and Eda could not possibly comprehend where he was taking them. Yes, they had been hiding for days now but this journey did not seem to end or maybe she was too restless. Serkan had ignited some hope inside her. Maybe, maybe this could be an accident and the test was wrong. Something hit her mind and she ended up asking a question for unknown reasons.
'Serkan?...'
'Efendim?'
'What if it's true? ................The news will spread like fire.'
'Then pray it doesn't happen." He looked at her for a brief moment and continued.
"Selin and Osman are after our necks, they might spare me for the deal's sake but not you or............." He paused and exhaled with woe. " the baby"
Eda looked at him strangely and after much contemplation, she found the right words.
"They won't kill you. You are their key to everything they wish to have. Sooner or later, they will find out about it and the first thing they gonna do is...."
