Zanya' POV

I woke up to see Maliky sitting in the chair next to my bed with my hand in his. His eyes were closed, but I could tell he wasn't sleeping. The fact that he was here almost made me feel like he some-what cared for me, but I knew better. I tried to pull my hand away from his but he tightened his grip

"Please don't" he whispered and my heart broke when I heard his voice crack

"I'm sure you have better things to do than to just sit here with me"

"I want to be here with you" he said looking at me as if I offended him

"Why?" I asked frustrated "You obviously don't give a shit about me"

"You are so right...I don't give a shit about you, but I do care about that baby inside of you" he seethed, dropping my hand

"Well if you must know, the baby's fine you can leave" I said harshly

"Fine" he shouted getting up to leave

Before he could exit the room, dad came in smiling. His smile faded after a while, and I knew he sensed the tension building.

"I wanted to discuss the wedding" he said

"Dad, I told you, I am not..." I emphasized 'not' "getting married to him" I pointed to Maliky as I said this

"I'm with you sir" Maliky said when dad looked at him

"Well, the wedding is fixed for the day after tomorrow and there is three things undone."

"Dad..." I stretched out the word giving him my best puppy eyes

"Do it for the kid. She needs both parents" dad said avoiding eye contact.

"She has both parents. We don't have to be married for her to have both of us" I replied and he looked at Maliky again

"What is it that we need to do sir" he asked my dad
