Third person's POV

It has been a week after the incident with Dian.
Ava tried as much as she could for her not to cross path with him.

During dinner she will order for her food to be brought up to her room.

She was more than scared of what Dian might be planning to do to her.

When she was sure that Dian has left for the office she came out of her room and went downstairs.

She went to the kitchen and get herself a cup of coffee.

"You are looking pale Ava,are you okay? A voice startled her.

"Oh my gosh! Ray stop being creepy" she bursted trying to catch her breath.

"Sorry,I didn't mean to do that" he apologized

"Back to your question I am fine,just having a slight headache due to the fact that am yet to visit the doctor " she explained.

"Why don't you tell Dian about it?he asked.

"Anyone else but absolutely not him" she replied

"Do you want to eat something? I can prepare it for you" he said.

"Well I want to have some chicken soup,can you help me with it? She questioned.

"Anything for you Ava"

"Well, I'll be in my room now" she said before walking out.

Ava walk back to her room and sat down on the bed.
She brought out her phone and starts scrolling through it.

After what seems like thirty minutes a knock came in the door.

"Come in!

Ray came in with the chicken soup placed on a plater.

He dropped it on her side and went to bring out a bottle water from the fridge.

"Do you want juice? He asked.

"No thanks,am fine with the water" she replied with a smile.

"Okay then,I'll be in my apartment" he said before walking out of the room.

Ava dropped her phone behind the nightstand .

She opened the plate and close her eyes sniffing in the aroma coming from the food.

She picked up her spoon and stir up the soup before scooping it into her mouth.

"Hmm,delicious" she muttered.

Few minutes later she was through with it.

She carried the dirty dishes open her door and went downstairs towards the kitchen.

She was humming to the music playing from her phone and smiling to herself.

"Are you tired of avoiding me sweetheart? Dian's voice come up behind her and she flinched.

"Oh my gosh! You scared me" Ava said silently more like a whisper.

"So I learned that you are having a little headache"he said and sat down on a couch,his leg crossed together his hand resting on his chin.

"Well I called my personal doctor,he will attend to your needs" he said.

The doctor came forward and smile at her.

"Hi there! I am doctor Zion,"

"You don't have to introduce your goddamn self just check her up! Dian yelled which caused the fear in Ava to increase.

"Sorry Sir" Doctor Zion apologize
He went ahead and started checking her up.

After five minutes he was through with it.

"So? Dian asked.

"Well Sir,she haven't been going for ante natal check up and as a pregnant woman she supposed to be going once in awhile" doctor Zion explained.

"Well that's good, Daniel will bring her to your office when needed" Dian said in a dismissal tone.

Zion understand what he meant and left.

Ava's POV

Having him close to me makes me feel so insecure and vulnerable.

His demeanor is so powerful that I feel little beside him.

"Are you even hearing what I was saying? He yelled his voice drawing me out of my thoughts.

I shivered at his outburst,I was practically sweating hard on the couch.
Heat formed on my forehead.

"So.rry I didn't..hear you" I stuttered.

"There we go again,your stupid stuttering" he said raising up his hands dramatically.

His eyes darkened,prove that he is mad at me.

I stood up from the couch at the verge of crying.

"I...am...sorry" I stuttered again.

He heaved a sigh and stood up from the couch he was sitting on and walk closer to where I was standing.

"You just don't listen sweetheart" he said as he clean my tears with his thumb.

"Please don't hurt me" I begged.

"Have I hurt you before sweetheart? He asked gently and I shook my head.

"Am not going to hurt you if you keep being a good girl, okay? He said and I nodded.

"Go to your room now,I'll tell one of the maid to come set up your bath" he said and back off.

I went to the kitchen and dropped the plater before going up to my room.

This is it!

Bath,eat,sleep and eat again.

Am practically on house arrest.
He won't let me out nor allow me do anything.

I don't know why my life is like this.
I never pictured my life to be like this.

I wanted it to be what others call 'perfect'.

I want my man to take my out on a date,profess his love to me,to tell me how beautiful I am,to make me feel special and loved.

Everything shattered when I stepped into that party.

I am thinking about making the next chapter Dian's POV so that we can have answers to our unanswered questions.
