Anastasia's wishes

Chapter 19 -My everything-

5 months later

I'm 38 weeks pregnant now. I'm going to give birth anytime soon. I can't wait to see my baby boy. I have prepared everything for his birth. Bree helped me to make a baby room and shopping for the baby stuff. I never know that the baby's cost is very high.

The payment that I get from this hospital is not as good as my previous one. Maybe I will find another hospital later but for now, I have to settle here. This is so close to my home. Being pregnant, I have to be more careful, I don't want to go far. But that also means I have to stop buying other things that are less important. My baby comes first.

I don't use the money that Nathan gave me. Maybe I will give it to my son when he grows up later. He can do whatever he wants with it later when he is an adult.

Sometimes I feel sad that I'm not going to have Nathan by my side when I'm pushing my baby out of my body. Then I get angry because he chose a mistress than his own child. But it's his loss. He won't see our beautiful baby. He won't get to hold him.

I will raise him as a good man. He will know that a good man won't leave his family behind. A good man will stay at his pregnant wife's side. A good man will not fall into another woman's arm. A good man won't cheat.

People in my hospital are speculating about me. Some of them think that I was raped and that's why I'm actually protected by the government. Some of them think that Bree and I are gay and I got my baby from a sperm donor. Some of them also think that I'm just a slut, that I had a relationship with a married man but our relationship is leaked so I have to run away from the wife. I don't care about whatever they say. I'm not here to make friends. My focus is now on my baby.

Bree is helping me all the way until today. She is there for every my ups and downs.

Being a woman, we have big curiosity. There were times when I wanted to know about my ex. And when I googled them or see Lisa's Instagram account, it'll give me a sour mood. I once saw a gossip account and it said that they are going to have their wedding at the end of the year.

There were photos of them. They looked so happy. There were some photos of Lisa and her stomach looks bigger than usual. There were many speculations that she was pregnant. I was shocked. Bree said that she also looks exactly like that after two whole packages of a big mac. How can she eat two big mac packages with that small body? I do not know. Bree never fails to entertain me.

Anastasia's POV

Pain wakes me up. I have a contraction. I see the clock it shows 2 AM. Great. I hope Bree has come home. Last night I didn't see her coming home until 11 PM and I go to sleep. I'm counting on how long my contraction lasts.

"Bree...," I call her by phone

She always answers my call. Especially these days. Because I'm getting close to my labor time.

"What?" She sounds sleepy.

"I think I'm in labor." I cry in pain

"What? Now?" She sounds shocked.

"No, maybe next month. Of course now, woman." I'm angry.

"Shit. I'll go upstairs." She hurries.

Everything's blurry. I remember went inside the car and then Bree drove us to the hospital. I remember arriving at the hospital, changed my clothes, the OBGYN checked how far I am but it just blurred.  The pain is so bad.

"Bree.." I call her.

"Yeah?" She answers her. She is standing by my side.

"I'm scared," I tell her honestly.

"Of what?" She asks me.

"What if something happens?" I cry.

"Like what? Like the baby accidentally have three hands and two heads? That actually you're having a twin?" She tries to make me smile.

I throw my pillow at her.

"Relax. Everything's fine." She smiles.

"I wish Nathan is here, Bree. I don't mean I don't want you. But, I just wish things go differently," I cry harder.

"Me too. I wish he's here so I can kick his ass," she looks pissed.

"You're an ass," I pout.

"Your favorite ass," she grins.

"Thank you," I wipe my tears with my hands.

"For?" She grabs a tissue box and gives it to me.

"Being you. Helping me. Distracting me." I wipe my tears.

"It's my job. Fortunately, you're in labor now so I forgive you for talking about that ape. If not, I will smack your head, you know that right?" She put her hands on his waist

"Okay, Dr. Davis, you're fully dilated. Start to push when you feel the contraction," The OBGYN tells me and prepares my position.

After several long pushes, and almost fainted Bree, my baby is born.

"Finally. I thought I'm going to lose my arm. Phew, I'm an artist. You can't just break my arm like that," Bree says but I ignore her.

I cradle him in my arms. I see his face. When he opens his eyes, I see Nathan blue eyes. I check his body. Everything looks perfect. Ten chubby fingers and ten little toes. I fall in love the first time I see him. He is my everything.
