SHEILA
Sheila held the second pill in her hand and threw it into her mouth, she had been taken it hours after she had taken the first one, she laid down on her bed and felt intense pain in her stomach, it felt like she was being stabbed in her stomach, she felt a flood of liquid in her underwear and saw that she was bleeding profusely, her bed was full of blood, she got up and felt liquid streaming down her legs, she went to the bathroom and stayed in the bath tub, she stayed there for about two hours switching on the shower, everywhere around her was filled with blood ,she felt a huge pressure release and saw the fetus floating in the water, she held it , it was slightly smaller than the palm of her hands, she looked closely and saw the fetus had a head, hands and legs with clearly defined fingers and toes, Sheila screamed, her heart panting, she continued crying more profusely, the doctor at the hospital had told her it would just be a clump of cells, but why was that looking like a baby, she looked at the fetus in her hands crying the more, she threw the baby in the toilet and flushed it to wipe the guilt away, but she couldn't, she had just killed her baby, how could anyone say that wasn't a baby, she looked at herself in the mirror, her mascara everywhere on her face, her red hair scattered all around her face, her legs full of dried blood, everywhere around her were traces of her blood and the blood of her baby.Her baby, she looked at herself into the mirror and she could only hear the words murderer, she tried to close her ears but the voices seemed to echo stronger, she began shaking her head trying to tell herself that she wasn't all that, but she couldn't, she left the bathroom and saw her bed stained with blood, she collapsed on the floor, how was she going to get out of this abyss of darkness that she was drowning in, who could help her now.

"Mr. Walkers, I just wanted to thank you for last week's lift", Nadia said as she walked into his office that day."Nadia...it's always a pleasure".
"Ok sir...I would be taking my leave now", Eric wanted to say something to her but he didn't know what to say.
"Have you had lunch?", he was shocked at the words that came out of his mouth but he didn't know what else to say.
"No sir", she said looking at him surprised.
"Great.....we can go together ...I know the best place for that".
"Ok ", Nadia said as they both left the office getting curious stares from their other colleagues that day, but he didn't care, he only wanted to spend time with her, but that was shocking seeing that he had only talked at length with her once but that was going to change today.

"You see I grew up Hindu and all our lives we had lived serving different gods and goddesses but it never made sense to me...I remember asking my mum one time when we were young, why do we call what we make goddesses and how could idols that were made by man be said to be protecting man....and I remember my mum telling me to keep quiet and just believe"."And it never made sense".
"It didn't...until I came to England and I decided to visit one of the churches around, I had gone to different mosques and tried practicing what was being done but it felt like something was still missing , I wasn't satisfied , my heart was crying for something other than just keeping the law, I wanted to have a kind of conviction that left no room for doubt , I went to a church near my apartment later on....and during the worship....I felt an overwhelming presence of God and his love for me , and I had never felt that way prior to this....I began to visit the church regularly and become more interested in God's word, and from there I believed..so that was it ".
Eric smiled, he was so grateful for her testimony, he was happy for Nadia and began to stare at her, how come she had been around him all this while and he didn't seem to notice her and why was he just seeing how beautiful she was, inside and outside , he couldn't take his eyes off her, Nadia began to look uncomfortable under his gaze, she checked her watch and her eyes went wide.
"Mr Walkers...we are late".
"Don't worry Nadia, we would be fine".
Eric payed for their foods and opened the door of his car for her and she entered quickly , Eric smiled as he went to the front seat, he didn't know what was happening to him...but he knew one thing...Nadia was different and rare too and he was definitely going to marry her.
