LOGINTwo weeks had passed gracefully, nothing bad had happened everything was peacefully. Sophia had just reached thirty weeks of pregnancy. According to her doctor,every additional day the baby stayed safely inside gave him a stronger start and anyday can be the day she should always watch out for signs and how her body is reacting to things most especially she should pay close attention to the baby. Damien treated those words like law, he obeyed every single instructions and makes Sophia follows them too. If Sophia stood for too long he advised her to stand up and take a walk or light exercise. He was always beside her. If she yawned…he suggested a nap, if she reached for something on a high shelf, he had already taken it down, infact he assist her even in little things.“You have become impossible”. Sophia said one afternoon as he gently took a grocery bag from her hand.“ It was heavy”. He replied to her.“It had apples”. She said“Heavy apples I believed”. He defended.She laughed .
Three days after she came back from her thirty weeks appointment, Sophia had woken up before dawn the house was still very quiet even the birds had not begun singing,so she lay quietly and she was resting one hand on the curve of her stomach gently lately this had become her favorite part of the day just her and the baby no phones,no disturbance,no meeting,no noise,no wedding planner, no well meaning family members visiting without invitations only silence which she loved so much then she smiled at how peaceful everything was.“ Good morning little one”. She stroked her stomach gently, smiling.Almost on cues a tiny kick answered her“There you are”. She laughed softly.“I was beginning to think you were sleeping”. Another kick, this one stronger and lasted longer than the first kick.“So you're definitely your father's son,you always prove it”. Behind her Damien stirred half asleep, he opened his eyes slowly and saw Sophia he then murmured. “I heard that”. He said slowly, yawni
At thirty four weeks……. both the doctors and Sophia had been expecting their baby at least that was what the doctor wrote in Sophia report file when she visited for her antenatal routine. That means that only a few more weeks remain to finally meet their baby. Sophia was super excited and she was a little tensed too. She can't wait to hold her tiny, beautiful baby for the longest time she had waited and hoped. The realization filled her.“ The baby is growing perfectly his heart beat is strong and he is developing very well, your blood pressure looks good too”. The doctor said to her. The doctor was happy about how her health had improved too.Damien was happy to hear that, he was super excited and relieved at the same time. Hearing this good news sparked joy within him that he released a slow breath which he had held before the doctor gave them the good news, he does this every single time which Sophia had noticed him too during every appointment.“You always look worried whenever w

Sophia had reached thirty two weeks of pregnancy and one thing had become very clear: everyone was obsessed with the baby, literally everyone…… her father, Damien,the staff ,law firm, even clients. Nobody asked how Sophia was anymore, instead every conversation started the same way.“ How is the baby?. Hope the baby is doing well". Nobody is really asking how she was doing. Sophia loved her baby, she truly did. But she was beginning to feel slightly uncomfortable hearing all that and guilty as well but she had to overlook which was why she became suspicious when Damien started acting strange again, very strange. For three consecutive days,he took phone calls in private. He avoids her sometimes,he shortens conversation whenever his phone rings and she begins to have doubt.Three days that was enough to make Sophia suspicious especially after everything they had been through.“You are hiding something”.

Sophia grumbles“What”?. Damien asked.“That's my father”. She replied, staring at the door.Damien immediately looked concerned.“Why is that concerning”?.Javier Reyes o

When Sofia woke up , it was to sterile white ceiling, with the smell of antiseptic filling her nostrils. Her head was sore, her body sore, and a throbbing ache in her tummy .
