Just as Paul loaded the gun and pointed it at my head, Matt's deep, loud voice filled the air, coming from down the hall, he was calling me out desperately. Seconds later Nick joined the chorus.
Upon reaching the room, they both froze when they saw that tall man holding me against his body, and next to my right temple; a gun.
-Not one more step or I'll blow her head off!- He yelled.
-Dammit! Ernie? What the hell are you doing? - Nick said without understanding anything.
-Hahahaha, you stupid brat! Ernie doesn't exist! tell him who I am honey, - he whispers in my ear, and every muscle in Matt's body tenses, as Nick's face gets paler and paler.
-This is Paul Mcflowrens, he was my teacher during my last year in medical school- I say as if I were talking to a patient.
-Don't be shy honey, tell them what happened between us! -
Nick's disgusted expression pissed me off, was he thinking something happened? Matt, on the other hand, was getting angrier and angrier and I could swear he's getting closer to us.
-I failed his subject, I was the only one. I couldn't understand why! I was one of the best in the class. When I asked why, this maniac made up a story of being crazy in love with me, he just wanted me to have sex with him... As if... Then, my father and the dean, who was my uncle Raphael, took action. -
-They ended my life, I spent 8 years in jail, I lost everything! -
-You are sick man! You abused of your students!- I was so angry that he blamed me for his misfortune when he was guilty of his depravity.
Matt, who had not yet said a word, took another step and made more noise than he intended, Paul without even looking at him, lowered the gun towards my belly and coldly said:
-One more step, one more, and your offspring dies, taking Eliza with it! -
Matt's eyes widened and it seemed as if they were about to pop out of their sockets. Nick made a sound of astonishment, and I began to feel my body shaking with terror and anxiety.
-What?- Matt said still with his shocked face. -Eli?- He looked away from Paul for the first time and his eyes met mine. -Is that true?-
My eyes burned from crying so much and my voice was almost a whisper.
-Yes!- I replied, -I took a pregnancy test before leaving for our date today. I saw the result when we came back.-
Matt looked over at Nick;
-I never touched her, it's yours!- Nick said, and some relief crossed his face as he gave Matt a sincere smile.
-Well enough already! yes, yes, Eliza is carrying your seed, but ... - he pressed the gun against my belly and it started to hurt me, I prayed that the gun would not go off.
