Wednesday

"Hi." I greeted Marcel and Robin quietly. "Hello!" Marcel said and hugged me. "Hi sissy." Robin said and kissed my cheek. "You look beautiful." Marcel said and I sat down smiling politely. "Thank you." I replied. "Shall we order?" Robin asked and we started reading the menu to order the food. After the waiter had come, we ordered our food. "So, how have you been?" Robin asked looking at me. "Fine. I'm okay. And you?" I asked looking between them. "It's difficult." Marcel said and I furrowed my eyebrows worriedly. They're like a family to me. I want them to be happy. "Difficult to handle Marco's behaviour." Robin said and I gulped. "What's his behaviour like?" I asked even though I know it's a risk talking about him for me. "The only thing he wanted was to travel to Barcelona and make you leave." he said making me look at my lap. I w-would-wouldn't le-leave w-with Ma-Marco. N-no way. "I can't leave." I mumbled and looked at them. "Not now that I have a baby inside of my tummy." I said rubbing my stomach gently. This action couldn't get unseen by the two of them. "Do you want that baby?" Marcel asked and I smiled gently. "It's a baby, Marcel. I can't put it away as a toy." I said and Robin chuckled. "Never ever I've imagined you talking about your baby like this." he mumbled and I blushed. "However, the question wasn't if you can put it away. Answer the question you were asked." Marcel said and I choked. If I want the baby? I have no other choice. I'm gonna treat it right. I'll love the baby no matter what. "Yes." I replied and he looked down on his lap. "That's not be the answer Marco would like to hear." he said and I scoffed. "Do you really think I care about him?" I asked. I want to make them believe I truly love Leo. Because they're asking way too much questions. "I have Leo. The baby will be here in February. Marco is...my past thanks to his behaviour." I said and Marcel held up his index finger.

"I've got another question. The last one." he said and I took a deep breath to be able to answer. "You're 3 weeks pregnant. When did you sleep with Messi?" he asked and I blushed. "If it is his of course." Marcel said and Robin slapped his shoulder. "It's his baby." I said quietly and bit my lip. "Yeah? Where is that confidence coming from?" he asked and I gulped. I've never though he'd ask me this. I haven't imagined myself admitting this. "We slept together when I was in Spain." I said and Marcel choked while Robin showed his amazement by his eyes which got bigger. "Y-you what?" Marco asked and I turned around gasping for air. "You what, Ana?!" he repeated bitterly and I sighed. What's he doing here? I can't take this back now. "I left Dortmund because of you. Leo was there. Gentle and...I was in pain." I explained and he scoffed. "You were in pain?!" Marco exclaimed and I felt my tears rushing into my eyes. "You were in pain?! I was the one being in pain! You left me here because of your friends!" Marco exclaimed in whisper and the first tear left my eye. "You don't love him at all!" Marco added and my heat cracked seeing the tears in his eyes. Don't cry, Marco. Don't cry. "I do." I defended, but he only scoffed again. "You do? This baby of yours is just a proof of drunk sex!" Marco said. This was way too much. He can call me slut if he wants to. But my baby isn't going to be the one punished for what happened. I stood up and took a shaky breath. "This baby of ours is a proof that he can treat me way better than you." I said through my clenched teeth. "This baby is a proof that Leo's able of showing his love. It's a proof that he won't get bored with a woman." I added bitterly and ouch. The next thing that happened was that I felt Marco's hand on my cheek. I gasped for air and saw Marcel rushing to Marco's side. "Dude! You slapped her!" he exclaimed and I was pulled back by Robin. "Annie. Okay?" he asked and I blinked. The man of my dreams has just slapped me. He dared to lie his hand on me. "You stupid coward." I whispered and he sobbed. "I'm so sorry." he said, but I shook my head. "I wonder what you'd do if we have a kid together! You wouldn't even man up to be my support! You wouldn't even admit the kid being yours if you wouldn't want it." I said bitterly and got away from Robin's gasp. "You'd say the phrase you use the most." I said and got closer to him. "I'm not ready." I imitated and walked away quickly rubbing my tummy. This...this has to be forgotten!

Slamming the door behind me, I ran into the bathroom. "Ana!" I heard mom yelling while knocking on the door. I pressed the wet towel on my cheek and looked at myself in the mirror. Why did he do it? I opened the door, but turned around to sit on the toilet. "Ana!" mom said and knelt down in front of me. "Hey. Baby, look at me." she whispered while looking at me. "What does this mess mean?" dad asked standing in the bathroom doorframe. He looked at me and froze. "What's going on?" he asked and walked closer to me. "What does this mean?" he asked mom and she shrugged. "S-she went out for a lunch with Robin and Marcel." mom said softly and I scoffed. "Marco appeared there." I said while sobbing. "M-Marco?" mom asked and dad knelt down pushing mom aside. "Ana, please, tell us what happened." he said calmly and I took a breath. They deserve to know. I don't wanna hide anything. "He slapped me." I cried and dad's facial expression showed it all. "I'm gonna make him limp!" he exclaimed and mom hugged me from aside. "Why?" she asked panicking and I shook my head. "Marco..he said that...that my baby is a proof o-of a d-drunk sex." I said and wiped my nose with my arm. "That stupid brat!" dad exclaimed and stood up. He started walking away what made mom go after him. But I just continued sitting there. My baby isn't a proof of drunk sex. Well, it might be...but...I'll love it no matter how we created it. This is our baby. And no Marco Reus will make me doubt whether I want it or not.
