       Eva was sitting in the bathroom looking at the pregnancy test kit in horror.

      "Oh no, this can't be" She cried.

     Eva remembered Taimur always used contraception before they had sex. Then how could she get pregnant?

      Then as if something clicked in her mind it was the day they made love in the rain. Yes, that was it, he didn't have any protection at that time.

      "Eva is everything ok?" She heard Jane call out from outside.

       "I am coming", she said as she opened the latch and came out in the room they were sharing.

      " So?" Jane asked.

     "It's positive", she replied.

     " Who's the father?" Jane asked her.

    " Someone from work", she muttered. It was not a lie any way she had ended up with Taimur because of her job.

     And now she was here in an African country thinking about what she was going to do?

    
       Flashback

   Eva had resigned from her job the next day she came back from Azmaayir. Aalam and Stevens had tried hard to talk her out of it but she didn't pay them any heed.

     This job had fucked her life forever, yeah life was not great before, but now it sucked.

     She knew it would be nearly impossible to get over Taimur. That man was an enigma unlike any other she had met.

      And what they had shared in those few months, Eva would not be able to forget in years.

      She had stayed in town for a week, met her parents catch up with friends and then she had joined her old archeology group.

      They were on an expedition in Africa, they were glad to have Eva back. And when Eva told them she was not going back to her job their joy was beyond description.

      A month had passed since she joined the expedition and when one morning Eva was having breakfast, Jane looked at her and said teasing, "You are getting big Eva and you are eating a lot since you returned".

      And then as if something clicked they both looked at each other in alarm.

     " How late are you?" Jane asked panicked.

    "I don't know maybe two months a week more or less", Eva said swallowing the gulp in her throat.

    How could she be such a jerk? She didn't realize she was late on her period. She was eating more than she used to and how touchy she had become in the last couple of months.

    She had been under continuous mental stress one after another. First Taimur had locked up her in his home and then when he had kicked her from his life all she could think about was him.

     She didn't have any thoughts other than him, though she had made herself busy in the digging expedition and tried as much as she could to not think about Taimur.

       They had hurried to the nearest pharmacy and bought her the pregnancy test kit. Eva didn't have to wait for the result, it showed positive within seconds.

     End of flashback.

       She was nearly three months pregnant now, Eva didn't know how to react to this news. Should she be happy that they had made a baby together? Or should she be sad because she was not with Taimur anymore?.
