The grumbling from my belly woke me up, I stood up. Oh my god, I didn't know when I slept off, I wailed. I checked the time it was half past six, I walked into the bathroom for a check shower and came out after showering. Inside the room, I put on my dress and left the room. I made my way down the steps, the aroma coming from the kitchen drew me in as followed it.
I walked in, intoxicated by the smell.

You here, Bella said as she saw, bringing me back to my senses.

Yes, I said as my belly groaned in hunger, I placed my hand on my belly with my cheek puffy red in embarrassment.

The food will soon be ready, she said hiding her smiley face.

Have you seen Sebastian, I said changing the topic.

He left the house after eating breakfast this morning, and since then I've not seen him.

Did he leave any message for me, on where he was heading to?

No.

Okay, thanks, I'll be at the dining, I said and left.
Where could he have gone to, I said as I left the kitchen and entered the living room.  I was about to go to the dining when the door to the living room went open. He walked in with a smile on his face, as he saw me his face quickly turned to a frown.

Where are you coming from, I asked foaming in anger.

None of your business, he said and took a step to leave when I blocked his part.

You are not going anywhere until you tell where you went to.

Get out of my way, he said furiously pushing me aside as he walked away.

Stopped right there I shouted back at him as I followed him behind.

He went into the with me behind, I'm talking to you how dare you walk out on me I said arrogantly.

I'm still your husband, you should show some respect, he said angrily.

I laughed at him, did you just say, husband, I shouted at him. If you start acting as one then you'll get the respect you deserve. I said as I felt a sound slap on my cheek, leaving me confused. Was I dreaming or did he just slap me, I asked myself as my head kept spinning no matter how hard I tried to process it.
Did you just slap me, I asked and held my cheek in pain.

I didn't mean to hit you he said, realizing what he just did as he tried to hold me.

Don't,  I said stopping him from coming close to me. How dare you slap me, my dad has never hit me before, I said as tears started flooding her eyes.

I'm sorry, I just lost control, he said apologetically.

Get out, I don't want to see you, I screamed as tears started dripping out of my eyes.

He turned and left the room.
I fell on the bed with my face on the pillow as I cried my heart out.

After crying for hours, I stood up from the bed and went into the bathroom to clean up. I walked out after showering with a towel tied to my body. I sat in front of the mirror so I could dry my hair and style. I almost jumped off the chair as I saw my reflection in the mirror. My face and eyes were all red and swollen.
I dried my hair packed it up, and applied some drops to my eyes before wearing my clothes. I pick up my purse and phone before leaving the room.

End of flashback.

I lay in his arms, as blood flooded the whole room. I could hear the siren of the ambulance as it approached. My vision became more burry but still I could notice the tears on his face as they dropped down. he places his hand on the stab area trying to stop the flow of blood.

The last thing I saw before passing out was being carried in a stroller inside the vehicle.

I regained consciousness, I opened my eyes, but my vision was still blurry. I could hear the beeping of the machine, I got a glimpse of someone with a face covered in a mask. My eyes began to close all I could think of was my daughter, what would happen to her if I was gone, I thought. I remember the joy I felt when I found out I was pregnant

I woke up one morning feeling the urge to throw up, I stood up from the bed and into the bathroom to throw up.

I walked out after throwing up, I lay back on the bed and covered my body with the bedspread.  I felt cold and feverish, as I went back to sleep.

I didn't know how long I slept, the knock on the door woke me up. I heard Bella's voice as she called out to me to open up, as she heard no sound from me. I heard her panic as she called for my Husband.

After the slap, we both avoid each other as plague and sleep in different rooms. As I heard her calling for him, I tried my best to stand up but my feet became shaky as I stood up and I felt my eyes become blurry. The door bursts open as they both rush. just then I felt woozy and passed out.

I opened my eyes, the light reflected into my eyes as I blinked trying to adjust to it. I could perceive the heavy smell of medicine, which made me want to puke, and also the beeping sound.
Where am I asked, Bella, who sat at the chair inches away from my bed, she came to me as she saw me awake.

At the hospital, she said worried, you passed out as soon as we entered the room, she said. I was worried as I didn't see you at the dining, I knew something was wrong so I went to find you.

What's wrong with me, I asked.

Your husband is with the doctor, she said, all you need now is rest.

Fine, my head is killing me, I get this nauseous feeling.

You must be hungry.

I nodded my head.

I'll go get you something to eat, she said and left the room.

As she left, Sebastian walked in, I looked away not ready to face him as he approached me.

Still angry with me, he asked.

All I did was remain quiet and ignore him.

Are you still going to remain mad at me now we are expecting a child together, he said.

I turn to face him in surprise, a child I ask.

Yes.

Do you mean I'm pregnant?

Yes, he replied.

My face turned bright it felt like all the anger I was feeling felt lifted.
I stroke my belly with my hand, trying to feel what was inside.
Another life is in me, I couldn't hold back my excitement that I will become a mother. I'll have a child of mine to call me mother, I thought as I smiled.

How far am I gone, I asked him.

Two months gone he answered.

Wait, for two good months, I didn't show any sign, I even had my period not quite long, so strange.
The smell of this room grosses me out, when can I leave?

If you want we can go now, the doctor said you can be discharged at any time, all you need is rest and much protein and vitamins he said.

Fine, I can't wait to leave, I hate the smell of medicine.
I stood up from the bed, can we go now?

Yes, sure.

We went to the car, he opened the passenger door to go in. I entered as he shut the door and came in through the driver's door.
He started the engine to drive off when I remembered Bella.

Stop, I said as he stepped on the car brake. We can't leave without Bella, I said, she left to get me something to eat. If she gets here and doesn't see us, she'll be frick out

If she doesn't see us here, she knows where to find us, he said coldly before starting the car as he drove off.

My thoughts were interrupted as the figure in the mask, kept asking me to go back to sleep. I kept thinking about where I was, maybe in the operating room. Although my vision was blurry, I could notice the person in the mask was holding something that looked like a knife. The light in the room started flickering, If I was given a second time I wouldn't make the same mistake of falling for him, I said before everything went dark.
