Disastrous Fate-Sweenett.

Chapter 16

Nellie was all alone in the house again. It was a Monday morning and the first day of Sweeney's job. He was pretty excited and nervous for this day. So, he left the house early.

It was boring for Nellie to be alone in the house for a whole day. Also, the beach was pretty silent. Nothing else is around the area except for the little white and blue house where her and Sweeney live.

You would walk for an hour to see people around. And that's the market with a few houses around that place.

Nellie lost interest of doing anything in their home. So, she decided to get some sleep. She found herself in a dream:

" It's a boy! " the doctor said and handed her the child but before she could, the baby turned into blood. Nellie gasped at this and cried. Suddenly, they teleported in their old shop. She was very confused at this. She was crying when she saw the blood in her hands which was her child. She saw someone staring at her by the doorway. It was Sweeney. " You! You killed my child! " he said as he approached her and took out his razor. " No. Sweeney please. I'm sorry. " she said as she backed away from him when she was still crying.

" I don't need your apology! You're no use for me anymore. " he said to her with his voice as soft as thunder. And with that, he slit her throat and watched her fell to the ground. Her life was slowly draining away when she heard him say, " You're nothing to me. "

you're nothing to me.....

you're nothing to me.....

Sweeney's voice echoed in her mind and woke up finding herself sweating on her bed. She cried at the nightmare she just had. She never wanted any of that to happen. She wanted a child but she didn't wanna lose that and most importantly, she never wanted to lose Sweeney and she loved him. She never wanted to lose him.

She didn't wanna sleep anymore because she was afraid the nightmare would come back to her mind again. So, she decided to go to the market to refresh her mind.

She walked for a couple minutes and finally reached her destination. She saw a shop that sold dresses and approached it. She doesn't buy that many dresses but she only wants to see some. Suddenly, a woman walked to her.

" Excuse me, ma'am. Are you Mrs. Lovett? " she asked with a smile.

" It's Mrs. Todd now. " she said when she looked at her with a bright smile. " Ah, yes. I've heard you got married to the barber who lives up your shop. That must be quite a love story. I haven't heard anything from both of you after that. " the woman said.

Nellie just smiled. How did this unfamiliar woman know about them anyway?

" Oh I'm sorry. I'm Angeline Winston. I'm one of your customers who often dine in your shop. " she said when she shook Nellie's hand.

" Nellie Todd. " Nellie said.

" Anyway, why didn't you open both your shops for weeks? " Angeline said. " Well, we decided to get out of there and move to a house by the sea. " Nellie said when she smiled at her.

Angeline was a redhead around her 30's. Her eyes were brown and she was a bit thin. " Aren't you planning to have any children? " Angeline said. " Well, I don't know. It's complicated. " Nellie said with a smile. " Well it was very nice to meet you, Ms. Winston. " Nellie said when she waved her hand to say goodbye and moved on to see some stuff.

She passed by a jewelry shop when a necklace caught her eye. It was beautiful. It's strings were black and the pendant were shaped into three parts and swirled around a red diamond.

" What's this? " Nellie asked the seller when she touched the pendant. " I call it a lovelett. It's something to keep someone's love in your heart forever. " the woman said. " How much? " Nellie asked.

" You keep it. It's yours." the elderly woman said with a smile. " Thank you. " Nellie said and took the necklace and wore it on her. On the way, she bought some food enough for two of them in a month.

It was around midnight and Nellie still couldn't sleep. She had Sweeney lying beside her with his face looking at the ceiling. She watched him sleep. He was so cute when he did. He was only wearing his shirt and his trousers. She caressed his lips. She loved him. Her hand was now on his chest. And with that, she finally fell asleep.

Sweeney and Nellie were on the beach. He was kissing her swollen belly. They both were very happy that Nellie was finally expecting a child when all of a sudden, Lucy appeared out of nowhere. She was all normal. Sweeney ran to her and kissed her, leaving Nellie alone and carrying his own child with her. Suddenly, she found herself standing in the middle of her old Bakeshop. She was all alone. The streets were empty. Not a soul can be found anywhere. Nellie was abandoned by the world, by everyone, by the man she loved. All she had now was the little life inside her. She was heartbroken. She went up the stairs to go to her room and just wants to cry with all her might when suddenly, she fell down the stairs. Her belly was hit by most of the steps she fell to. When she finally reached the bottom, she hit her head on the floor. All she saw was darkness.

Nellie woke up and found blood on her hands. She figured out it came from her womanhood. Her once swollen belly was now as flat as the floor she was lying at. Nellie cried very loud at this. It was more like a scream. Now, she was all alone in the world.

" Nellie! Nellie! Wake up! " Sweeney shook her to wake her up. Nellie opened her eyes in fright and found herself sweating and panting on the bed.

" You had a nightmare. " Sweeney said when he rubbed her shoulders and looked into her eyes. " I did. " she panted and hugged him tightly. Sweeney hugged back and comforted her. She was still panting on his chest.

" It's alright. Shh. I'm here. " he said when he rubbed her back then kissed her head.

" Please don't leave me, Sweeney. " she said when she sobbed.

Sweeney looked into her eyes and touched their noses together.

" Never. " he said and kissed Nellie. She wrapped her arms on his neck and pushed him to bed. She stopped and rested her head on his chest. " I love you. I love you so much. " she said when she kissed his chest. " I love you. " Pretty soon, they fell lovingly asleep together.
