CHAPTER 62&63
°° PREGNANT °°
Isabella (aka Camila) walked into the house furiously. Her plan was going perfectly until that stupid Miguel had to come ruin everything, hmph!
“And where are you coming from, by this time of the night?” She heard a voice asked from behind and she needed no soothsayer to tell her who it was…
Of course it was her stupid step mom!
She rolled her eyes before turning to look at her.
“Since when has my whereabout become your business? Why are you asking old hag?” She asked rudely.
“How dare you call me old hag?”
“Angry?… Isn’t that what you are? Old hag!” She repeated, with a smirk.
“How dare you.” She raised her hand to slap her but her dad came in then.
“Grace!” He shouted and she clenched her hand which was in midair before dropping it down.
Mr Mendes walked to them.
“What were you about to do?” He asked her immediately he got there.
“You should ask her what she did before asking me any silly question!” She retorted with an eye roll.
“Isabella??”
“I knew you were gonna take her side. Well for your information, I owe you no explanation… Tell this skinny wítch to stay on her lane…” .
“You heard her? She just called me a wítch… Why have you come here anyways?” Grace asked.
“The last time I checked, this isn’t your house, I can come here whenever I like, got it!” She yelled.
“Don’t you dare raise your voice at me!” Grace warned sternly.
“And if I do, what will you do?” She asked, as if challenging her to do her worst.
Grace clenched at jaw, glaring at her hatefully.
“That’s enough now, Bella go to your room.” He instructed.
“I’m going already, besides this place is suffocating me.” She rolled her eyes before climbing the stairs going to her room.
“Gra…”
“Don’t you dare talk to me! You watch her talk rudely to me without doing anything!” She said angrily.
“I’m sorry.”
“Keep your sorry to yourself, mtcheeew.” She hissed before going to her room.
That’s how it has always been since he married her, from one quarrel to another… Bella has never for one day accepted her to be her mother…
Actually, Mr Mendes was once a faithful husband and they had a happy united family until Grace came into the picture. She was his secretary at work.
She was a devil in disguise which he didn’t know of. She seduced him and had her way with him.
She blackmailed him with that his one act of unfaithfulness and was able to get to him with it.
They became a thing and started having a secret affair. When Mrs Mendes found out about it, she was torn and she divorced Mr Mendes who didn’t think twice before accepting the divorce but they both had to go with one kid and so Crystabella left with her mom while Isabella stayed with her dad.
All these happened two years ago.
**
Bella got to her room and sat on her bed, dropping her bag beside her. She was already having a bad day and those two bad lucks decided to add to it.
She was sure Yolanda must have found out she was the one so she couldn’t go back to her house, if not she wouldn’t have been here.
Talking of Yolanda, that Miguel!
How could he spoil her plans! Why does he always come to her help? Darn him.
“Isabella.” She heard her dad call from the door, she rolled her eyes ignoring him.
Ever since the day he divorced her mom, she grew an enormous hatred for him.
Her phone began ringing and she picked it up. The caller’s ID was Yesenia.
Yes, Yesenia. The names sounds familiar right?
Yes, that’s because you’ve heard of her before. She is the grouchy and bossy maid of Yolanda, who hated being addressed as poor, well that’s because she isn’t infact poor.
She is Isabella’s bestie and coming to Yolanda’s mansion was all a plan.
“Hey bítch!” Her voice came on from the other end.
“You’re good?” Yesenia inquired when she heard her sigh.
“Not at all Yesenia… That Yolanda girl is driving me nuts and dad is also doing his own… Gosh! I just hate them all.” She said, squeezing her face in disgust.
“I know right? I saw your handiwork.” Yesenia said from the other side.
Bella smirked.
“If not for that stupid Miguel who came to save her, that was just a tip of an iceberg… When I’m done with her, she will regret messing with what is mine.” She said hatefully.
“Right?… I found out something actually Bella… The child… It’s Miguel’s child, he was the one who r@ped her and right now, she’s in the mansion, she’s heartbroken.” Yesenia told her and Camila’s eyes bulged.
“Wait Miguel is the r@pist? Wow! I thought he was only being defendant when he said that… Whoa! This is more interesting than I thought, she’s heartbroken, exactly how she should be… Then if I strike, she might just díe.” She giggled like a maniac.
“Don’t you think you’re doing too much Bella? I kinda feel pity for her…”
“What are you saying Yesenia? Thought you were my friend… Where is this pity coming from?” She asked.
“I was just…”
“My enemy is supposed to be your enemy, don’t you dare deviate!” She warned sternly Yesenia nodded slowly as if she could see her.
“Bull shít! Never repeat this rubbish you just spout out, otherwise you will regret knowing me.”
“I won’t Bella, c’mon… I was only saying.”
“Better!”
They talked more before Bella hung up.
“Isa…”
“F*ck up!” She yelled immediately, she couldn’t believe he was still at the door.
°°°°°
“Yolanda.” Nanny Clara called, she has been locked inside her room since the incident in the morning and it was almost twelve hours the incident happened, she still hasn’t come out.
She knew she was hurt, who wouldn’t? But she was getting worried about her. If she kept on crying like this, she might fall sick.
She had given her enough time to cry, now it was time to talk to her, thank God Ricky was already asleep.
“Yolanda, open up.” She urged but no response.
“C’mon Yolanda, talk to me… You shouldn’t be crying all day.” She said but still no response.
“Are you okay?” She asked, finding it weird. She knew Yolanda very much, she will open up as she was the one and if she wasn’t ready to speak with her, she would open up and tell her rather than ignoring her.
The door bell rang suddenly.
“Who could it be, this late at night?” She wondered, hesitating on going to open the door but the doorbell rang again, followed with a knock.
She shrugged before going to get the door.
“How can… You?!!” Her eyes widened the moment she saw Miguel at the door.
“What are you doing here?” She asked.
“Aunt please… Let me see Landa, please.” He begged.
“You know she doesn’t wanna see you…”
“Yeah I know, but even with that I wanna see her aunt, I love her so much. Believe me when I say I’m not at fault.” He said pleadingly.
She could see in his eyes that he was truly sorry and repentant.
“I’m not sure she will want to see you… You should go and come some other time.” She told him but he shook his head.
“Please aunty, let me just see her once, even if she’s asleep… Please aunty.” He begged and nanny Clara sighed.
“Okay.” She muttered and made way for him to come in.
“Thank you.” He mouthed before going in.
“Follow me, I’ll show you to her room.” She said and he nodded, following behind.
They got to her room and she knocked on the door.
“Yoyo,,, please open up. I want to talk to you.” She said but no response.
“Yoyo.” She called again.
“Maybe she’s sleeping… And she locked her door.” She said.
“But Landa isn’t a tight sleeper.” He said and nanny Clara nodded as well.
“Could it be…” They both gasped at the same time.
“Do you have her spare keys?” He asked but nanny Clara shook her head.
“No… I’m new here. I should ask the maid.” She suggested and Miguel nodded.
“Quick.” He said and she nodded, going downstairs.
“Yesenia!”
“Yolanda please don’t do anything stupid.” He begged as he waited for nanny Clara to return with the spare key.
Nanny Clara came back immediately with the spare key and they opened her room door.
They both heaved a sigh of relief as they found her sleeping peacefully.
“Thank God.” Nanny Clara mumbled underneath her breath.
Miguel walked to her bed and sat beside her.
“Landa…” He called, taking her hand in his, his eyes were already blinded with tears.
“I’m sorry, I don’t mind asking for your forgiveness a thousandth time if that will make you forgive me but please don’t leave me, I…” He paused when he observed something.
He placed his palm on her head and he gasped in surprise, noticing her temperature. She was having fever, her body was burning up.
“Landa.” He called in a worried tone.
“What happened?” Nanny Clara asked.
“She’s burning up.” He said.
“Tch! It happens whenever she cries alot. Goodness!” Nanny Clara said.
“Landa…” He woke her up, placing her head on his lap.
“Mi…mi… guel…” She stuttered.
“Yes it’s me… You’re not okay.” He said.
“My head…” She muttered, closing her eyes.
“No, no wake up… Aunty, what should I give to… Wait I’m coming.” He said and dropped her head on the bed before rushing to the bathroom.
He came back immediately with a bowl of water and a small towel.
“Look, I’m here Yolanda… Open your eyes, you’ll be fine.” He assured, squeezing the wet towel before placing it on her forehead.
Nanny Clara just stood there watching the scene like a movie.
He wiped her body with the cold towel and her body temperature reduced, tho it wasn’t back to normal.
“Wait here, I’ll get you drugs in the nearest pharmacy.” He said and quickly left the room, leaving her in nanny Clara’s care.
“Wow!” Nanny Clara muttered, looking at Yolanda who looked fragile.
Her eyes were closed but she wasn’t sleeping.
Miguel arrived in no time and gave Yolanda the drugs, after which he made her sleep, watching her all through the night, leaving nanny Clara in amazement.
So true love still exist??
°°°
Yolanda woke up feeling much better than last night. She cried so much yesterday that she got sick from it and she was expecting to have headache this morning but…
She suddenly noticed the cloth on her forehead and took her hand to it, she slowly removed it, looking at it.
She made to sit up when she noticed the hand clasped around her waist, hindering her from sitting up. She turned to look at the person.
‘Miguel?’
‘What is he doing here?’ She thought, not remembering what happened last night.
‘How did he get here?’ She thought as she stared at his sleeping face.
He was really handsome, gosh. From his baby-like lashes which laid firmly on each other to his perfect pointed nose and then his lips which looked tempting and at that moment, he chose to lick his lips.
Was he awake? She thought.
“You can go ahead and taste it if you want he said and her eyes widened. He was awake!
Miguel slowly opened his eyes, wearing a mischievous smile on his face.
“Go ahead.” He said seductively and she gulped down nothing.
“Wh-hat are you doing here?” She asked nervously, she didn’t know why she was getting nervous… Like she was supposed to be angry with right?
He smirked before leaning closer, and slowly, he claimed her lips in his his… Kissing her slowly.
She responded as well, kissing him back, forgetting she was angry with him.
**
“I asked what you’re doing here?!!” She asked again, louder and colder than the other time and it jolted Miguel from his little world of imagination.
Gosh! She only woke him up and he started imagining the impossible at this situation.
“I… I’m sorry Landa.” He said.
“I didn’t ask for an apology… I only asked what you’re doing here, in my house and room!” She yelled, getting down from her bed.
“I came to see you last night and…”
“Just leave already!” She cut him off sharply.
“Landa please listen-”
“Out!” She yelled in a cold tone.
“Now that I’m still nice, leave.” She said calmly and he slowly nodded before getting down from the bed and began leaving the room sadly.
He stopped at the door and turned to look at her.
“I love you Landa.” He said before leaving the room completely and Yolanda released the hot tears which she had been holding in since.
Damn!
“Why did it have to be you?!” She cried.
°°°°°
It’s been a week since the incident and Miguel and Yolanda had both been leaving apart.
It has been difficult for the both of them but Yolanda wasn’t ready to let go… At least, not so easily.
Miguel kept on coming to see her but she asked the security men never to let him in again.
She doesn’t wanna see his face, at all. Ricky was beginning to notice something off about everything but they wouldn’t tell him what was going on.
Tch!
“Ahh.” Yolanda sighed coming out of the bathroom. She was feeling the sudden urge to puke so she went to do it and that’s where she was coming from.
She didn’t know why, she was feeling dizzy, her head was heavy… She just began feeling this morning sickness three days ago, it’s frustrating.
She sat on the bed tiredly. She was even weak.
Nanny Clara came just then. She went to drop Ricky off at school.
“Yoyo? Are you okay? You don’t seem alright.” She observed closely.
“It’s the morning sickness again nanny.” She said tiredly, closing her eyes.
And nanny Clara sat beside her. She felt her temperature, before observing her eyes, then she pressed her b**bs and Yolanda winced.
“And you said you’re not pregnant Yoyo.” Nanny Clara said.
“I told you nanny, I’m not pregnant… It’s just the everyday malaria.” She shrugged.
“Everyday malaria… Look at you Yoyo, you’re becoming busty, your appetite is that of a glutton, you’re always having morning sickness, you lose appetite easily, your mood is like that of a cheating boyfriend.”
“Nanny!”
“And you say you’re not pregnant.”
“I’m not.” Yolanda denied for the umpteenth time.
This symptoms has been on for two weeks now but it has been showing greatly in this particular week.
She doesn’t wanna believe she is pregnant, she was very scared and hopes it’s not true.
Knowing what she went through while birthing Ricky, she became scared of pregnancy… She doesn’t think she’ll be able to handle the nine months stress for a second time.
“We’re going to the hospital today and that’s final!” Nanny Clara concluded, leaving the room.
°°°°°
HOSPITAL
“The test result says you’re pregnant ma’am, congratulation.” The doctor said with a smile and Yolanda’s eyes widened.
“I’m… I’m pregnant?” She asked as if she didn’t hear well.
“Yes ma’am, congratulation.” The doctor said and Nanny Clara smiled at her.
“Thank you doctor, that’s such a good news.” She said to her.
“Yes.”
“We’ll leave now.” She said.
“No I can’t be pregnant.” Yolanda suddenly said and they furrowed their brows.
“What do you mean Yoyo?” Nanny Clara asked.
“Nanny you know what I went through the last time… Even the doctors said I might not be able to give birth again… I can’t be pregnant.” She said and nanny Clara sighed sadly.
She remembered, she had complications in her last pregnancy, she almost lost her life.
The doctor warned her not to take in again otherwise she might be endangering her life.
This was not good.
°°°
They were on their way back home, when a black car double-crossed theirs. Yesenia was the one driving the car, it came to a screeching halt and her head almost bumped on the steering wheel.
Yolanda and nanny Clara also bumped in the car.
“What is it?” Yolanda asked, looking up.
“Ma’am, I think we’re in trouble.” She said as two hefty men in the other car who overtook them, came down from their car and started walking to their own car.
“What… What’s going on?” Yolanda asked and before her mind could process what was going on…
The door of the back seat which they were seating on suddenly opened and a hand dragged her roughly out of the car.
“What are you doing? Let go of her!” Nanny Clara yelled coming down as well.
“Let me go!” Yolanda struggled in the guy’s hold but he didn’t react.
“You bàstard! Let go of me!” She yelled but the man didn’t listen.
They got to the car and the other guy opened the car door and the guy dropped her inside. She began struggling with him so he had to inject her with a sedative.
She fell unconscious in no time.
“What have you done to her? Help!” Nanny Clara yelled trying to push the man so she can see what was going on in the car.
The man pushed her away and she fell to the ground hitting her head in the process.
The two men got into the car and they drove off in a cràzy speed.
And that was when Yesenia came down from the car.
How no one was around the scene at the moment was what no one understood.
