Chapter 40

ALICIA’S POV: 

*flashback*

I heard the door slam shut and in the next moment Zack was standing behind me. 

“It smells fantastic!”

“You’re early” I put on a smile and turned around. “How was your day?”

“Exhausting, hot, boring, terrible”

“Hah, lovely” I turned around again and took out the pie from the oven.  Then I saw an oblong box in front of me. 

“Open it” he urged me. 

I opened it and looked at the silver chain in it. It was necklace. 

“Do I need an excuse to give my wife a gift?”

“It’s beautiful! Thanks”

“May I?”

I nodded my head and felt it tightened around my neck for a second before he hitched it.

“Beautiful” I said quietly. He gave me a kiss and sat down at the table waiting for me to set down the food. 


“This is the best pie I ever tasted” 

“New recipe!”

“So good…”

“Thank you! Are you done with this?”

“Yes”

I got up and took up the dishes – and the wine bottle – and walked over the dishwasher. 

“Do you think I’m done with that?” he asked behind me and I walked back to the table. 

“No, I was just going to pour you some more” I made up and poured the red beverage in his glass. 

“Do you have something to say, just say it”

I looked at him for a moment, I could say anything.

“I don’t have anything to say”

He pointed his finger at me. “You got that look”

I was still staring at his face. “No, I don’t have any look”

“What do you want from me?”

“Nothing… I don’t want anything”

He hits the glass so it flew and went into thousands of pieces. I got down on the floor and took up the shards.

“How many times do you have to hear me say I’m sorry? You won’t let it rest. Every moment of every day you want me to apologize”

“No, it is fine, I promise! I just going to go and put on some coffee”

I was on my way to the kitchen when he got up on his feet and I felt his hands around my neck. 

“You think you can walk away from me!?”

He pushed me into the glass cabinet behind me, hit me in the face and took my hair and pushed me at the floor. Luckily I landed on my hands, before my belly.

“Zack!” I yelled as I felt the concern for the baby when I turned around. 

“What do you want from me, baby?! I give you everything, EVERYTHING!!”

He pulled me up in my hair and I squealed. His grip got even tighter and he pushed me away. I turned around and looked at him. 

“Listen to me! You know I love you!” he yelled at the top of his lungs and pointed his finger at me again. He took a step closer and layed his hands on my belly. 
I immediately felt nauseous and I prayed that he wouldn't do anything more. 

"I... love... you" he whispered.

I was too afraid to even breathe. The only thing I could think of was the baby, and... Bill. It had t be Bills.
I couldn’t give birth to this creep’s child.
In that moment I knew I had to leave him.

Yes, this part is borrowed from a movie, but it gave me inspiration, :P
