Kumba.

The moment Diane says it, the room changes, not dramatically or loudly, but in a way that makes everything feel tighter.

Like the air itself has become harder to breathe.

“Moraa is missing.”

Those words don’t leave my head, they sit there, repeating.

I look at Gesare instinctively.

She’s gone still in a way that tells me she’s thinking the exact same thing I am.

Not panic about Moraa’s wellbeing.

“What do you mean missing?” I ask again, my voice lower now.

Diane exhales slowly.

  • THE PREGNANT GIRL AND THE RUTHLESS HEIR    Chapter 156

    Kumba. For a moment after she finishes talking, I don’t move, I just sit there, leaning back against the headboard, watching her.Because everything she said lines up but also I don't really know what to say to her, not after everything I accused her of last night. I run a hand over my face, exhaling slowly, my thoughts still tangled up, still refusing to settle into anything solid.l, I know I should say something or say something but before I can form the exact words a loud knock echoes through the room.It's sharp, urgent and aggressive it makes Gesare flinches slightly and I notice that.We both turn toward the door instinctively as another knock follows, harder this time.“What now?” I mutter under my breath, irritation already creeping in.Gesare stands up, hesitating for a second before walking towards the door.“I didn’t order anything else,” she says, more to herself than to me.There is another voice now, Muffled and it sound like she is arguing.“I said you can’t just”Th

    Kumba.The coffee helps, but not enough to kill the headache completely, my head feels is heavy and all I want to rely do is lie back down, but I can't. I sit there for a while after she corrects me, just watching her. I watch her quietly, studying her in a way I haven’t allowed myself to before. She looks more composed and put together this morning, but there is something underneath that, like she is holding herself together by sheer will.I set my cup down slowly and carefully because I need to do this right, last night I was under the influence of alcohol, I was confused and angry and all I did was accuse her of a bunch of things, today I just wanted to take to her calmly, maybe that will get me the information I needed. I shift slightly, turning towards her and she doesn’t move or look at me at all, she was still keeping her distance. “You can come sit down, I am pretty sure you are tired,” I say quietly, she hesitates for just for a second before she walks towards me and sit

    Gesare.I didn't sleep at all, I mean how could I even get any sleep with a billionaire passed out on my cheap hotel bed. Maybe for a few minutes here and there I did close my eyes, but nothing that counts.The entire night sits heavy in my chest, replaying over and over again like something my mind refuses to let go of. Every word he said. Every accusation he made before when he came here. But the question that echoed in my mind was him questioning everything I told him about myself, how could he think someone can lie about stuff like that. I close my eyes briefly, pressing my lips together as I sit on the edge of the chair across from the bed, it was the only other furniture in the hotel room.Kumba is still lying on the bed, in the same exact spot where he passed out last night. Half on his side, one arm thrown across the mattress, breathing slow and deep like none of it ever happened.My gaze lingers on him longer than I want it to, taking in the view of his perfect manly body

    Diane. The hospital corridor feels too bright.I sit there, but I don’t feel like I’m sitting. My body is still, but everything inside me is pacing, spiraling, refusing to settle.The smell of antiseptic clings to the air, sharp and cold, and every now and then a nurse passes by, their footsteps echoing in a way that makes the silence feel even heavier.Beside me is my sonKumba, he is restless.He hasn’t sat down properly since we got here. Even now, he is half standing and half leaning against the wall, his hands running through his hair over and over again like he’s trying to undo something that’s already been done and I watch him for a moment. Then the frustration rises again.“You left her alone,” I say, my voice low but sharp enough to cut through the silence.He stills slightly.“Mom”“You left her Kumba ,” I repeat, louder this time, the words fueled by fear more than anger, but they come out harsh anyway. “Alone in your house in her condition.”His jaw tightens.“I told you I

    Diane.Something isn’t right, I can feel it I just can't explain it.It starts as a small discomfort, the kind you try to ignore because you don’t want to sound dramatic, even to yourself. But as the minutes stretch into hours, that feeling doesn’t fade, It grows.By mid morning, I am pacing around my living room, my phone clutched tightly in my hand.Gesare should have been back by now.She told me she was spending the night at Kumba’s house. I didn’t question it, I knew she was fine but today morning I realized she had forgotten her phone here, and my son has been sending me straight to voice mail all morning. Kumba's son was a few houses down from mine but I also don't want to pop up on them Unnannounced but Kumba knew she was supposed to take her vitamins at exactly ten am and yet he had not brought her back. “She wouldn’t forget herself, she knows she is not supposed to miss even a day,” I murmur to myself, shaking my head. “Not her.”I try calling my son Kumba again and lucki

    Gesare."I am really tired, I should get some rest it has been a really long day." I finally say getting up from the dining table, and that's when Kumba finally looks up at me. "Okay you get some rest." Diane says and I walk away, the hallway feels longer on the way back, or maybe it’s just me.Every step echoes softly against the polished floors, the sound too loud in the quiet of the house. Dinner still lingers in my mind, the polite conversation, the careful words, the way Diane looked at me like she was trying to rewrite her opinion in real time.I reach my door and pause for a second, my hand resting on the handle. For a brief moment, I consider going back downstairs. Sitting in the living room and doing something normal, but nothing about this feels normal and I know Kumba is still around so he needs spaces with his mom. So instead, I push the door open and step inside, closing it gently behind me.The room greets me with the same stillness I left it in still perfect and untou

    KumbaThe ultrasound image wouldn’t leave my mind, it was all I could see. No matter how hard I tried to focus on anything else, that grainy black and white picture kept flashing behind my eyes.I shoved the thought away and walked straight through the hospital corridor, ignoring the curious glance

    Gesare. The first thing I noticed when I woke up was how quiet it was apart from the machines humming and the soft murmurs of the nurses talking at the station down the corridor.The second thing I noticed was the pain.It throbbed through my leg like a slow drumbeat, dull but heavy, reminding me

    Kumba. When Dr. Valentina called and told me she needed to see me immediately, my stomach dropped because it was never good news when she called. She had been my doctor through every brutal stage of my cancer treatment. If she was asking me to come to the hospital in person, it wasn't for small ta

    GesareThe first thing I notice is the sound of machines, beeping around me. A slow, rhythmic sound that seems to echo inside my skull.My eyelids feel heavy, like someone glued them shut, but I force them open anyway. The bright white light above me stings my eyes, making me squint and for a momen
