The billionaire's struggle [Completed]

One

Emerald immediately jumped off her couch and ran into the bathroom with the need to throw up. This has been going on for three weeks now. something keeps on telling her she's pregnant but on the other hand, she tries to talk herself out of it. Saying, it might be a stomach infection. But she could not bear it any longer. She hardly finds food to eat and the little she gets from the Hospital's leftovers, she could not even hold it down because of how nauseous she often feels.

After throwing up, Emerald sat on the bathroom floor for a few minutes to regain her lost energy. After that, she rinsed her mouth and did her morning rituals before putting on a very simple dress and a black sandals. She tied her hair in a messy bun after which she carried her bag and exited her apartment for work. She didn't have food in the house so there was no breakfast for her. Hopefully, she will get some leftovers from the Matron in the hospital.

The hospital was not Far from where Emerald stays; making it easy for her to walk down there. It is a fifteen minutes walk. well, it could be more than that, depending on how fast she walks.

Emerald found herself to be in a good mood as she will be seeing Luna later on today. She did not see Luna yesterday because it was a Sunday and also her day off.

It's been over three months and Luna is still in Coma. She hopes the little girl wakes up soon.

Emerald entered the hospital and immediately changed into her cleaning clothes which consist of a navy blue shirt and pants. After that, she proceeded to the hospital's store and cleaned there first.

While cleaning the store, She came across a box of pregnancy tests "Well let me get through this." she said to herself.

After a few minutes of deciding which one to take, Emerald proceeded to the restroom and peed on it. She was certain she wasn't pregnant. "I mean how could I be? It was just a one-night thing." she thought.

After waiting for three minutes as prescribed, Emerald checked the pregnancy test and saw what she dreaded to see. Two pink lines. She was indeed pregnant. "Lord Jesus." She exclaimed as the stick fell off her hand. She covered her hands with her mouth as tears rolled down her cheeks.

She is pregnant and does not even know the father of the baby. What will she tell the child when he or she is born? Emerald hardly finds food to eat in a day, How will she feed the child?. "There's no way I'm keeping this." She muttered.

She made a mental note to meet a nurse to give her an abortion pill or something to get rid of the baby which has to be as soon as possible.

After crying for what seemed like hours. Emerald washed her face and exited the restroom. She went back to cleaning the store and after that, she decided it was time to see Luna and clean her up.

It was already 9 am so Luna's father would have left. She has been told not to enter Luna's room before 9 in the morning because Luna's Father usually come very early in the morning to spend some time with his daughter before he goes to work. So he needs some privacy with his daughter.

Emerald also knows that Luna's mother is no more. It was the Lazy nurse who was meant to take care of Luna that gave her all this information.

She entered Luna's room and immediately she saw the little girl a smile found its way to her face. She quickly went to her bedside and kissed her forehead.

A stranger who sees them together would think she was Luna's mother and Luna was her daughter.

Emerald cleaned Luna's room first, after which she cleaned Luna up and changed her clothes. Emerald was combing Luna's hair when she burst into tears. She would have loved to have a baby girl like Luna but due to circumstances, She has no choice but to abort her baby. No doubt she feels guilty about it but she had no other option. Emerald was lost in her tears and her thoughts that she didn't notice when someone entered the room.
