I am pregnant with Dave's child, I felt like crying, it was too much for me, I was finally letting go and now this, my hand touched my belly.
In there was a little life we both created out of hurt and tears.
HiI came out of the bathroom with tears on my face.
"It's obvious, you are pregnant with his child, what are you going to do now?...tell him or remove it?" She asked me.
"I can't answer for now, I have to think rationally, I have always been impulsive, always taking decisions based on my emotions, but not this time….I have to think carefully" i replied looking at no place in particular.
"What about telling your dad"?
"This is too sensitive, I have to figure something out before I do" I said.
I went into the guest room, then lay on the bed still holding my stomach and thinking critically until I slept off.
Unknowingly to me, Dera sent a picture of the test trip to Dave, telling him about my pregnancy.
DAVE'S POV
I was at work when the message popped in, I didn't look at it first, I was so busy that I forgot about the message.
It was when I got home after freshen up that my mind came back to the message, when I saw it I froze.
My phone slipped out of my hands….pregnant, she was pregnant with my child.
It was that day that I was too hard on her, didn't use protection….damn it.
What was I going to do?
Was this another chance God was giving us?
I couldn't hide my excited, immediately I called her.
It rang once but she didn't pick, I called again, this time she picked up.
"What, why are you calling me now?, I didn't sleep with anyone, can you let me breath?" She yelled at me with anger.
I was too eager to confirm the news from her that I didn't even get angry. " Are you pregnant with my child?" I asked trying conceal my excitement.
For a few seconds I heard nothing from her end.
Instead of answering my question she asked me " Dave tell me, this break, what is your decision?, if you want to end things now with me, just say it so I can forget about you finally, don't make me have false hope"
" I still want you, let's give ourselves another chance" " please let's keep this baby, maybe it's our only bridge this time" I begged her.
" No more breaks, do you promise that?" She asked
I can hear her choked sobs, I felt bad.
"Yes I can promise that,let's give our self this chance"
"Okay" she agreed.
I felt relief, I was going to be a father, this time I will try my best to change her character but I still don't know if I can marry her.
I haven't stopped seeing Kenny, I know I should stop but I keep going back for more of her.
EMILY"S POV
For me it seems it was just about the baby and not about me, now he is back but I'm reluctant to start again with him, I'm not ready yet, not ready to face him with this whole issue.
Dera looked at me shocked "Don't tell me that you are going back, have you forgotten how he hurt you?....are you just going back so soon?" " I thought you were more better than this".
"What if this is a chance between me and him,what if everything goes right this time?....can't I try?" I sobbed.
I cried holding my stomach, this life growing inside me didn't do anything, the child is not the father, I have to do the right thing, for me and the child. Lemme try this last time.
Deep inside me I still missed him but I was reluctant, I wasn't hoping for anything anymore but I missed his touch.
The way touched me tenderly, I miss our love making not just sex.
The way he smiles at me, pampers me, I miss everything about him.
Maybe just maybe I should give him a chance again…the last chance
