“K”. My name echoed in my ears. “Please wake up K”. My eyelid lifted. My eyes burn and I tried to close them, but it wouldn't shut. I groan and lightly shook my head.

“She's awake Monique”. The light went out. I tightly shut my eyes and blinked them back open. “Thank god. Cara are you OK?”

“Hmmm”. I groaned again. “What happened?” I saw a small flashlight in Eva's hand.

“You fainted K”. Monique replied standing at my bedside.

“Nick your gonna be a grandfather again...”.

“Akeilia!...”.

“Yes! She's almost two weeks pregnant with your son child...”.

“Yes!”

The smile suddenly disappeared from my lips and also Michaels, both of us looking at each other with fright, our eyes wide. He slowly let hold off me and I instantly feel as if I wanna die after I saw the shattered look in his eyes as darkness takes its place.

He slowly let go of me. My heartbeat feels as if it's multiplying into many hearts as all of them beats rapidly trying to burst out of my chest. It's really painful.

I slowly shake my head from left to right as tears burns my eye balls, rapidly filling them. The happiness we were sharing is gone. I think our friends realized too because their excitement stopped leaving only Eva and Mr Perry on the phone.

I'm almost two weeks. That means. “Oh my god”. I breath out and covered my mouth. I'm pregnant for Lenoy. I started to hyperventilate as darkness clouded my eyes.

I started to cry looking around the room. There's no sign of him.  I look at Monique. She's giving me a sad smile.

I'm pregnant for Lenoy. Oh my god. “I was crying when I found out I was pregnant too. It was the happiest moment of my life”. She doesn't know. Eva doesn't know that Michael isn't the father of my child.

“No wonder something about her looked different....But that can be concluded if so or not only if she do a pregnancy test”.

If I looked different the time Eva said I was. That was when I woke up after being shot. I couldn't have been Michaels child because we didn't even had sex yet. When Eva said that's why I looked funny, I should've realized the moment I was told that I'm pregnant, that it wasn't for Michael.

“Where's Michael”. “He and Leon took a walk”. I pushed myself up. “Take me to where they are”. Monique know that I'm pregnant for Lenoy. I see the look on her face. I told Monique every time I have sex. She knows.

I was so happy that the only man I've ever loved so much and I are together, and even more that I was pregnant for him. I felt endless joy throughout my body...But now...Now I feel empty. All over again.

“No you need to rest”.

“I'll be fine”.

“Yeah she'll be fine. Let's go Akeilia”. Eva gave a genuine smile and nod. She's so nice. She makes me feel as if I'm her own child. I'd love to have a mother-in-law like her. I don't even know anything about Lenoys parents. I don't even wanna think about.

“Ok but please be careful. I hate the way your fainting so much capiche?” I nod and stand as quickly as I could eager to find Michael. I need to see if there's any solution.

We left Eva's office heading to Michael's room. The room that I thought I'd spent whenever I'd want with him. I can't control the tears that are leaving my eyes.

“This is so messed up K”.

“I messed up Monique. He's not gonna want anything to do with me. He hates Lenoy and now I'm pregnant for him. Do you know how difficult it's gonna be for him to even look at me?”

“Please stop crying. Don't let Sara and Debra and whoever else feel as if they won. These tears definitely doesn't look happy”. “I c-cant stop... I was finally happy. Now I feel like I wanna die”.

“Your just gonna have to tell Lenoy”.

“Michael​ is never gonna forgive me”.

“Its not like both of you were together. Forgiveness shouldn't be included in this”. I stop and look at her, soon to reach Michael's room. I sniff so snot wouldn't ooze from my nose.

“I can give an account everytime I have sex, if or not sperm went inside of me. I couldn't give an account the last time I had sex with Lenoy. I got pregnant the night Lenoy and I had in my bar”. Her eyes filled with even more sadness. I looked away from her and started to walk again.

“If only I'd listened to him when he brought the council, I would've been pregnant for him instead. I can't believe this is happening to me”.

“Why did he do this to me. I was drunk for god sakes. He should've let that be my decision”.

“I thought you said you were safe?”

“I was. Or maybe I checked it wrong”. She sigh.

“I'm sorry K. You don't deserve this”.

She put her hand on the knob. “Are you ready?” I nod nervously and she opened it.

We walked in. Monique closed the door. My heart sank the moment I saw him. He's sitting on the bed looking at the floor while his fingers are intertwined. Leon is beside him looking at us. I looked away not wanting to see the look in Leon's eyes. Even though Michael is the one that is mostly hurt, I know that Leon is also hurting. They shared a brotherly bond until now.

“M-Michael”. Monique softly called. He didn't look up. He didn't even move. “Don't bother. He hadn't even said a word to me”. Maybe he'll talk to me.

I look at Monique. She nod indicating that I should. I look back at Michael and more tears streamed from my eyes. Oh I love him so much. I never imagined that I'd hurt him like this, myself also. It hurts...so much.

I bit my bottom lip, fidgeting my thumbs moving towards him. Leon got up walking towards me. I still refused to make eye contact.

I kneel in front of him the moment I reached him so that I'll be in his sight. “I'm sorry Michael. I'm so sorry. Please forgive me. Look at me Michael please”. His eyes remained at the same position.

“I know you hate me right now Michael, but please...I'm begging you, just look at me. At least that you can do please”. I sniff and cried even more when he didn't even budge. I lay my hands on his knees and that's when his eyes shifted a bit, but he still didn't look at me. He looks lost, and there's nothing on his face that gives any emotion away.

He probably feels that I concealed it from him. He was suspecting me and I pretended as if I didn't have any idea of what was going on with me. I was also a bit moody and I enquired for Lenoy after he adjusted my company's salary account. He probably thought that I was hiding the fact that I'm pregnant for Lenoy from him. Oh god. He probably thought that I was even gonna let him believe it's his child.

“Michael”. I sob. “If I knew that I was pregnant for Lenoy I would've told you”.

“Don't...don't...Just don't”. My heart sank even more. He look at me, pain creeping on his face. “I'm sorry Michael. Please don't hate me”.

“I don't hate you. This is just...It hurts Akeilia”.

“We'll..um...yeah”. Monique said pointing to the door then they left.

“I'm also hurt. This baby was suppose to yours Michael, not him. I love you, not him”. The pain in his eyes grew even more.

I bow my head crying really hard. I suddenly feel his husky hands gently tilts my face for me to look at him. Maybe he wanna work this out.

His eyes are glassy, but he looks calm. No he doesn't wanna work it out. I know him. He shouldn't be calm in a situation like this. He's leaving me.

“The best I can do for you right now is to convince the council for Lenoy to keep his job”.

“No Michael. No no no. Your the one I love I cant. I wanna be with-”. “That way he'll be closer to his responsibility. And that way you won't be alone”. My heart pained me when he emphasized 'his'.

I grabbed his thighs. “D-Don't do this to me Michael. I love you. I'll be nothing without you”. I sob with tears streaming down my face. I lay my head on his thigh.

“That's the best I can do”.

“W-We can work something out”. I lift my head looking at him with hope. I won't be able to bare living without him. “What can we work out Akeilia? Your gonna have another man's baby”. He stand and my hands fall off him. His heavy breathing making it clear that he's angry.

“Damn it!” He yelled causing me to flinch as his breathing gets heavier. At one point I thought he was going to hit me. I've never been afraid of Michael until now, because now I've done something deeply wrong, something unforgivable. He look down at me with a gaze that holds no pity, no passion. It's just empty.

“You told me your afraid of another woman showing up at our doorstep saying her child is mine, yet your the one who's pregnant for another...”. He walked closer and I got so scared I feel like running out of this room, but I believe he won't hurt me. Would he?

“...What would you have done? Would you stay or leave?”

“I w-would've s-stayed Michael”.

“Now your just being selfish”.

“I wouldn't have left Michael. I can't imagine my life without you. When I thought Jay Jay was your son, yes I was angry at first because you didn't say anything to me about it. But I was willing to work things out...”. I sob looking at his hard expression. “...Because I know you love me”.

He turn his back to me and my heart ached. “Call Lenoy and tell him. He loves you too, so you have nothing to loose”. He said with disgust. I stand looking at his back.

“I'm losing you Michael. I'm gonna lose you. I can't lose you please”. I softly spoke.

“You lost me the moment you got pregnant for him”. He walked off and I feel my breath shutting off.

“Michael!” I ran after him, but stop almost crashing into him because he'd stopped suddenly. He didn't turn around. “I won't break my promise to keep you safe. You can stay if you want. If not I'll have bodyguards protecting you twenty four seven”. He walked off again.

“Michael.. Michael!” I walked after him.

He sharply turn around. “Just let go Akeilia! This is done! We are done! There's nothing to work out! Leave me the f*ck alone!” I can't believe this. I froze where I stand. My chest burning from a broken heart. I watched as he left without even looking back at me.

Michael POV

I stormed passed Leon and Monique outside the door. I don't care how she feels. F*ck I can't even think straight right now. I can't believe this. After I saw her vomit I knew that she was pregnant. I wanted a baby that's why I f*ck*ng cummed inside of her. I knew she loves me. I knew she wouldn't have a problem with it. That mother f*cker Lenoy! That bastard! I'm gonna f*ck*ng kill him!

“What happened?”

“Not now Leon”. I continue my pace.

“Why didn't you resolve it?” I stopped giving him a dirty look. “Resolve? What the f*ck is there to resolve? She's pregnant for someone else”.

“Your angry. Just sit down and think about the-”.

“Stay away from me Leon”. I pointed. I walked off and descends the stairs. I take my car keys from my pocket.

“Stop him!” Everyone are looking at our direction. I don't even give a f*ck what they think right now.

I frown and more anger flow through me when I see the guards blocking my path.

“Move”. I growled. I became more furious when they didn't. I made to fist the one exactly where I'm suppose to walk to exit, but I stopped when I heard Leon yelled my name. Why do I have to follow his orders? I never find him so annoying and disgusting until now. A frown came across my face as I looked back at him.

“Don't let everyone see what a crazy f*ck you are. Have a little self-respect”. He scolds through gritted teeth.

“If they find out what transpired it's gonna be on the f*ck*ng media”. He added.

“Like I care”. I retort.

I turn around looking at the guards. “Get the f*ck out of my way!” I shouldn't have left my gun. My body got pulled back. “You do crazy shit when your angry. Just because you've grown a few balls now doesn't mean I can't beat the shit out of you”.

“I'd like to see you try...”. I smirked. “...I am feeling the need to hit something or.. someone”. He raised an eyebrow and let hold off my shirt a little rough. He may not be afraid of me, but I will fight.

“You don't think when your angry. That's what I hate about you. Where the hell are you going?” He gesture for the guards to move. I walked off without saying a word.

I opened my car door and groan in irritation after the alarm went off. I deactivate it and enter the car. I slammed the car door and rolled my window down.

I start the ignition. “Michael wait”. I pressed the button to roll the window back up. He quickly reached my car and put pressure on the window preventing it from closing properly.

“I'm not afraid to break it. Let hold off the button. This isn't something you just cool off Michael. Just listen to what I have to say asshole”.

“This is not the time for your advices. Nothing you say can make me feel better. For the last time Leon don't make me take my anger out on you”. His expression got hard and he removed his hands. The window rolled up completely.

I quickly put the car in gear and drove from the estate speeding.

I hit the steer. “F*ck f*ck f*ck!” I allow my emotions to overwhelm me. The tears I was holding in clouded my eyes as they ran out. I love her so much. But I can't just hold her in my arms and tell her that it's gonna be OK. I don't know how to resolve this one.

I wiped my eyes and look at the phone that's connected to my car after I hear it ringing. Not the time.

I probably shouldn't have said what I did to her. I saw pain and despair in her eyes and I know that she wanted to be pregnant for me. I wanted her to stay happy. I wanted us to be a family!

“Damn it”. I hit the steer again crying even more and pressed harder on the accelerator. This is killing me. It's hard to accept this. Lenoy is now apart of her life even if she doesn't want him to be. I can't co-op with that.

I really f*ck*ng love her. Damn it. I love her smile, laugh, her beautiful body, her hair when it's wet. Even the love we made. She knows exactly what to do. She's the first woman who'd made me called out her name during intercourse. I've never loved anyone so much.

If I continue despite of the fact that she's pregnant for someone else, our relationship will never be the same. I won't be able to stand the sight of Lenoy coming to our home to collect his child. They'll always have to be in touch.

He has the right to experience each kick and development of the child. Not me.

The moment she tells him, he's gonna be OK with it because I know he loves her. It may have been just a few uncommitted flings for Akeilia, but it meant more to him. I saw the way he looks at her. I'm closer to her heart, but Lenoy is still very close.

I hear my message tone and look at it.

Answer your phone idiota

Immediately the ring tone blew up. I glanced at the rear view mirror when I see a speeding car approaching.

I frown and swipe to answer.

“Why are you following me! Didn't I tell you to f*ck off!” I made to hang up but stopped after he called Akeilia's name.

“Akeilia fainted again!”

“Regular thing for a pregnant woman Leon”. It even hurts now to say pregnant. “I do not want to converse with you at this moment. Just leave me to think god damn it!” I hate this irritating asshole.

“This time she hit her head and got a concussion”. My eyes widen and I feel tears clouding my eyes again.

“And it's your f*ck*ng fault! If only you'd just listen to what I have to say! Now my pregnant wife is stress out all over again. Your an idiot Michael!” Anger tickled my chest. I tried my very best to hold it in.

Akeilia is badly hurt. I swallowed the lump at my throat.

“I never wanted any of that to happen. I never ask for it so don't blame me!” I couldn't help the anger that overwhelmed me as I began to speak.

“She was the one who got pregnant for another man! How am I to blame for the f*ck*ng effect!”

“If only you'd think and!- slow down you might get yourself killed!” “What's the point of living? I have money, power, everything except the only woman I've ever loved, that's pregnant for another man. How am I gonna deal with that huh! If Monique was pregnant for Ken would you have easily accepted it!” The line went silent. Seems like I hit the nail on the head. I had to make him understand how I feel.

I inhaled deeply as tears continue to flow from my eyes. I can't believe I'm crying like this again. Crying over Akeilia again. What's wrong with me! I'm a man I shouldn't be crying. I hit the wheel. F*ck!

“So if death comes knocking at my door... I'll easily accept it”. I fiercely told him.

“Don't you ever mention that motherf*cker name to me again...You hear me!” I look in the rear view mirror and see him speeding faster.

“Now you know how I feel!” I yelled in extreme anger looking at the phone with scrunched eyebrows. He always thinks that things can be easily resolved. Well not f*ck*ng this!

“You have no right to shove that in my face! I was only trying to help you! I always have to be behind you trying not to let you screw your f*ck*ng life up!-”

“Stop trying Leon! Let me live my life the way I want! Stop trying to be my guardian angel! You stopped being my bodyguard five years ago!”

“Michael!”

“F*ck you!-”.

“Michael slow down! Your approaching a corner”. I sharply look in front of me.

Leon POV

Shock came over my body when I saw Michael car flipping continuously. I speed up and quickly dialed Eva's number. My heart bouncing on my chest plate.

I saw the corner but I thought he was watching the road. I thought he'd slow down. And while he was approaching the corner I thought he'd slow down. He couldn't slow down enough on time. He stepped on the brakes too hard and steered too sharp. What the f*ck is wrong with him!

I should've man up and not do 'eye for an eye'. “Yes Leon. Have you-”. “Send an emergency helicopter instantly. It's on the stretch just outside the estate. Michael met in an accident. Hurry Eva.. please”. I hung up not wanting her to asked me what happened. That would be a waste of time.

I stepped on my brakes as the car skids. I quickly got out once it stopped and ran to his car that is laying upside-down. “Michael!” I yelled breathing heavily. Not because I'm tired, it's because of shock.

“Michael”. I whispered under my breath after I saw him, laying lifeless on the windshield with blood everywhere.
