Chapter Twenty Seven: What life does to people!
Richard's POV:
We're back home after one amazing month full of love and adventures, we did the things any couple would do, like romantic dates, watching movies, you know all these sassy things, I made sure Kristen enjoy her time in Paris, I made sure she's totally happy, and guessing by the way she smiled and laughed, I knew it was a good choice to bring her to this amazing, gorgeous, spectacular city.
It felt good to protect Kristen and to love her secretly, but it feels even better to know the one you admire and cherish the most loves you too, and right now I could die from happiness, with Kristen in my arms, and waking up to that cute little face of hers every day, every morning and every time.
I love the way she smiles at me, the way she eats, the way she bits her lower lip whenever she feels nervous, and I most certainly like to tease her and make her laugh, she's my whole world now, she's the one who my heart and soul yearn and crave for.
But you know what they say, Life us what happens to us while we are making other plans.*
And that's exactly what happened that morning, just when you think your life is perfect, going to the greatest college and having the love of your life to stare at all day, most disasters happen.
It was nearly 6 AM I opened my eyes slowly to find Kristen laying on my shoulder, I smiled and quietly kissed her forehead, she snuggled closer to me and moaned sleepily.
I closed my eyes too and put my arms around the love of my life, that's when I heard some noises, I opened my eyes and listened for any other noises, but I couldn't hear anything.
I closed my eyes again, maybe I'm just dreaming, I thought to myself.
There were noises again, but this time louder than before, I opened my eyes, and stared at Kristen, I guess I should wake her up, god knows what that is.
"Kristen, baby" I whispered and kissed her cheek, Kristen's eyes fluttered open and she smiled at me.
"Good morning, baby" Kristen said, and I could feel heat radiating through my whole body as she called me baby. But it was not time for romance, what if there were burglars in our house, I have to wake her up and protect her.
" I hear noises, why don't you get up and change? I'll see what that noise is and will be back okay?" I declared and kissed her forehead, Kristen's eyebrows furrowed in confusion and worry, but she nodded her head, just when we were about to get up, the door of our bed room opened and who came in surprised both me and Kristen.
Her parents were inside now, glaring at me and Kristen, also my dad's men, James and Martin were with them too, of course my father won't bother to come and visit me even if I was burned alive, so this was totally normal. Since he's always busy.
"Dad! What're you doing here?"
"Mr. White! What're you doing here?"
Both me and Kristen exclaimed at the same time, we both stared at each other and stared back at them, Kristen's father shook his head as if in disappointment at me, and grabbed Kristen's wrist to take her out of the room.
"Sir, what's going on? How did you get in?" I asked in a hurry, and tried to follow Kristen, because I had no idea what was going on. But Martin and James blocked my way, and they both linked their arms with mine.
"We're taking Kristen, your parents will explain everything to you" Mr. White said calmly, and they both took Kristen away.
"No! Mom, Dad. Please, what's going on?" Kristen shouted and yelled, but it was no use they were already taking her, she tried and slapped both their parents hands away, but it was again no use, she was struggling to get away from them and was staring at me, with an expression of fear and worry, that I wanted to kiss away.
I struggled to get away from these huge men too, but they were way stronger than me, suddenly Martin's arm was kind of loose so I took my chance and punched the poor guy on the face, I mean they're just doing their job, but since I couldn't understand what was happening , the protective Richard was back and all I ever wanted to do was be with Kristen and protect her. Martin was soon back and he held my arm even stronger.
"Richard.." Kristen shouted, they have taken her out of our bedroom and she was now barely audible.
"Kristen.." I shouted too and groaned in pain, as I felt Martin punch me in the gut. Well I don't blame him, maybe this is my father's order though.
Kristen was taken from me, and I was locked in my own bed room, I was very restless, pacing back and forth, rubbing my hands through my already messy hair, I haven't eaten breakfast too, and I was feeling damn hungry, but most of all I was feeling very worried and nervous, I didn't know what was wrong, but I knew it's bad, maybe my dad has found out about our fake marriage, he doesn't like lying, and we've been both deceiving him, so that's a very good reason to make him angry.
And something was telling me it's not just that, and I was right, the door of my room unlocked and a girl who I think I have seen somewhere came in, Martin immediately locked the door, scared I might run away, I don't blame him, he knows how much of a rebel I was when I was a kid.
I stared at the newcomer and raised my eyebrows in question, what does this girl have to do with anything seriously?
"Hey, Richard" The girl smiled in a very ugly way, which I think she thought she was being seductive. Suddenly it hit me, this girl was one of the ones before Kristen, one of the mistakes.
What was her name again? Tamara? yeah I think that was her name.
"Hey, Tamara" I said in a bored voice, and Tamara rolled her eyes.
"It's Sarah, baby" She said and came towards me, I narrowed my eyes at her, and took a step back.
" SO.. What're you doing here?" I asked after I cleared my throat.
"Well.. I came to share some good news with you" she said and held my hand, I stared at her hand as if it was a foreign matter and raised my eyebrows in question.
"What is it?" I asked.
" I'm pregnant" She aid and giggled, seriously what does her pregnancy have to do anything with me?
" So?" I asked and rolled my eyes at her stupidity.
" So.. you're not happy you'll become a father? She said and smiled.
"What?" I hissed and narrowed my eyes at her, MY child? Who does she think she is? The one who should be pregnant with my child is Kristen and not Tamara.
"Yeah.. you'll be a father soon" she said and giggled, she opened her mouth to speak, but before she could say anything I couldn't help but laugh, I laughed and laughed, this Tamara girl was sure funny.
"Why are you laughing?" she asked angrily, and opened her purse to hand me a small paper, I stopped laughing immediately and snatched the paper out of her hands, I looked at the paper and back at her belly, surely her belly was kind of round and she had gotten somehow fat, I gulped and stared back at the sonography paper, in the picture there was a small tiny point right in the middle of the darkness.
" H-how.. many weeks are you pregnant?" I asked hesitantly and gulped again, this can't be true. Does god punish me for a mistake I have done before becoming this Richard. I really hope it's not true, Sarah- if I recall correctly- grinned and flipped her hair, she touched her belly dramatically , which made me feel disgusted, don't get me wrong, I'm not against pregnancy or fatherhood , but Tama- Sarah, didn't deserve to be a mother.
"I'm eight weeks pregnant" She finally answered and stared at me with a fake smile plastered on her face, as she was still touching her belly.
"You're eight weeks pregnant, and you come now to tell me you're pregnant?" I said and snorted " I think you're lying, what made you wait all these weeks?"
" What do you think has made me wait all these weeks?" Sarah said angrily "I have been wondering whether I want this child or not"
"Wow! You're just a heartless bi*ch" I hissed " You've been thinking about abortion all this time without caring for the child nor the father's feelings"
" Whatever.." Sarah whispered and rolled her eyes, she sat down on my and Kristen's bed, and eventually lay on the bed, which made my blood boil, but I reminded myself, that she maybe is telling the truth after all, it's been nearly eight to nine weeks since I started having a crush on Kristen, but I can't recall when was the last time I had a date with this girl.
But all I know is that this girl is capable of destroying, my marriage, and I had to protect it, but my heart sank when I thought of Kristen and I wondered whether she'll be disappointed in me if she found out Sarah is pregnant.
I hope no. I silently prayed.
