? Chapter Twenty-One [ 21 ] ?
? Amber Diamond ?
” Hon… please be careful around that young man Ethan . He may look kind and generous but some people have got a dark history. ” My mother patted me on the back as I packed up all of my clothes for tomorrow’s departure .
” Mom … Ethan McKenzie wouldn’t never hurt anyone . Stop worrying too much . I will be fine . I can take care of myself ” I whispered as i folded my shirts and pants. ” Beside I Know how to say NO when he tries something unappropriate with me ”
” Good . I don’t want my daughter to get pregnant before marriage . Remember what I taught you . Sex before marriage is a sin . ” My mother pointed out as she sat on my bed. ” I will hate to see you getting pregnant before marriage because of that Ethan guy. ”
” I know , I know and I won’t do anything to disappoint you mom. You can trust me . I’m still a vrgin and I haven’t slept with no one ” I reassured my mother ” You can go prepare for dinner because I’m almost done here. ”
She kssed me on my cheek before she left my room. I breathed out in relief . Finally my mother has left me alone. I can’t stand lying to her but I have got no other choice but to lie. I don’t want to make her sad all over again . I have been ab©rting my babies since I was 16 years old and my mother has got tired of keeping this kinds of secrets to my father. This time I spared her from the heartbreak of seeing me pregnant once again . That’s why I’m keeping it as a secret .
” Well ,I never thought one day you would get married . Finally there is someone who is going to watch over you instead of me . ” My sister Kate said while she stood through the doorway. ” That ba$tard that got you pregnant threatened me. He said i should try to convince you to get an ab©rtion . ”
” That idi©t ! Just ignore him Kate . I knew he was after me from day one. I hate that man and I don’t know why I got involved with him from day one. ” I sat on my bed furiously ” im scared that he might find out about my marriage . I know he doesn’t want to see me happy. ”
” Fuck him ! You will turn out to be happy no matter what Amber . You have been aborting your own babies for that man . ” Kate pointed out sharply as she walked over my bed . ” Enough is enough . He must stay away from you . ”
” You are absolutely right . He is so Manipulative . ” I shrugged . ” I guess I have got no other choice but to play it low to avoid him . I don’t want him to hurt me or Ethan in anyway . ”
” Our biggest concern right now is that Ethan is Hayden’s best friend . Hayden’s brother might find out through Hayden. ” Kate murmured slowly. ” I’m scared to even let you go right now. ”
” Hayden and his big brother aren’t that close . I doubt that they even talk to each other . Don’t worry Kate . I will be fine ” I pulled her into my embrace trying my best not to break down.
I have lied to my parents about my pregnancy and now the man responsible for my pregnancy wants to kill me or the baby I’m carrying . I’m scared but at the same time I’m hoping that my plan works out so I can trap Ethan with this pregnancy. He is my only savior right now .
? Ethan ?
I have been working my ass off the whole day . I didn’t even take Time to rest because my own thoughts keep attacking me . I’m Stuck between my family and the love of my life .
This morning Isabella was acting strange . She even surprised me with breakfast in bed. She stood by my side feeding me and saying sweet things. I was a little confused but happier that she has finally come around . Since this morning . I have been feeling a little dizzy and I couldn’t stop vomiting non-stop. I hope Isabella didn’t spike anything in my food like what Annalisa did . I trust Isabella with all my heart.
” Im not going to be available the whole next week . Please try by all means to take care of everything . If there is something wrong , don’t hesitate to contact me . ” I mumbled as I passed my receiptionist. She just nodded as she was busy with some documents .
When I got in my car. My stomach was hurting a little but I managed to drive away without complications . I’m a big man , stomachache doesn’t bring me down at all .
I couldn’t help but think of my life . It’s been a while since I thought about it . I hate that i always listen to my parents but I can’t help it because there is this feeling , like it’s pulling me towards my parents especially my mother. This feeling keeps getting lesser and lesser the more I vomit and I don’t know why .
When I got home . I found Isabella waiting for me with a plate of food smiling . ” I have been waiting for you like forever . I wanted to serve you this delicious food myself . ” She handed the plate to me as I sat down on one of the chairs beside the kitchen counter .
” Thank you but I’m not really hungry Isabella. I’m just a little tired . ” I pushed the plate towards her. ” Put it in the microwave for Hayden . ”
” Hayden has already ate and beside Hayden is not my man . You are the only guy I’m willing to feed day and night . ” Isabella stared at me . ” I prepared this food with lots of love . You should eat . ”
” Like I said , I’m not hungry . Please don’t make me eat now . ” I uttered ” We haven’t talked since our misunderstanding . How are you ?”i instantly changed the topic to avoid eating anything .
” I’m fine Ethan . I have gladly accepted that you will never be mine only so I’m willing to share you with anyone . ” She took the plate of food . ” I want us to work. I’m willing to do anything to be with you . ” she quickly microwaved it and sat down across me .
” Really ? You would that for me ? ” I beamed ” I thought you were going to leave me , now this ?”I breathed out in excitement .
” Don’t get all excited and guess what ? I didn’t want to tell you this but I can’t help it . !” Isabella smiled ” Annalisa thinks I might be her biological sister. We even took a DNA test and the results are going to be delivered tomorrow morning . ”
” What ? Really ?” I stared at her in shock . I can’t believe what I’m hearing right now. Annalisa and Isabella could be sisters. ? That’s new .
” I know right ? It’s a little shocking . I don’t even know what to say right now except I’m so excited . I’m hoping that she turns out to be my biological Sister. ” She excitedly stood up and walked over me .” I have been dying to find my family . ”
” Im hoping so too . ” I whispered softly . I’m happy for Isabella but I hate that she is already jumping up and down because of all of this . It’s a little sudden and she must cool off . I would hate to see her cute sad face when she finds out that Annalisa is not her biological sister .
Isabella hugged me from behind and smiled that Finally she decided to make the first move instead of me . I like that she doesn’t hesitate to get what she wants .
I couldn’t help but think of Annalisa . How dare she make such assumption . Isabella looks nothing like her or anyone in her family. I don’t mean to be rude or anything but I’m praying that Annalisa finally realises that her youger sister died long time ago and there is nothing she can do about it . Annalisa tried this stunt last year with my ex girlfriend . She thought my ex girlfriend was her biological sister and that freaked me out . We did a DNA test to satisfy her and it turned out negative . I was relieved that Annalisa finally got off my ex girlfriend’s back but few days later she unfortunately passed away .
” Ethan …. you should consider yourself lucky because I have never loved anyone in my life like I love you right now . It’s like everything feels right when I’m with you . ” Isabella whispered softly in my ear , ” I don’t care that your parents chose a suitable bride for you because she will never love you the way i love you . ”
” Isabella , you are too perfect for me. I’m scared that I will never make you happy sometimes . I’m too boring” I confessed sadly ” but I don’t care because when I’m with you , everything just feels right . ”
” I wish I could sleep beside you tonight. I hate that I can’t but we can…” She trailed off as she turned my chair to face her ” You can come in my bedroom so we can finish what we started ” she brushed my arousal slightly and I groaned.
” No Isabella . We can’t okay ? I’m saving you for the day we get married ” I slowly grabbed her hand from my arousal .” The day that I will make you mine officially. I want to make love to you for the first time in our wedding night. ”
” I’m not a vrgin Ethan. Why wait until you marry me while you can have me now ?” She whispered . ” Im not that special . I have been raped multiple times . It’s pointless taking a slow pace. ” She stared away with tears in her eyes .
” Look Isabella . I don’t care if you have been rapped multiple times by men that I wish I could shoot right now . ” I grabbed her chin and I slowly made her look at me ” I’m willing to love you from the inside out unconditionally . The past may seem a little painful for you . I wish I could take away the pain you are feeling right now but I can’t . ”
” You don’t get it Ethan ! You see this ?” She pointed at her body ” I hate myself , I hate to look at myself in the mirror everyday. This scars all over my body makes me feel ashamed of myself. ”
” Can I be your mirror then ? Because sometimes our eyes can deceive us. You are perfect Isabella , don’t believe those negative thoughts inside your head ” I pulled her in my arms ” Don’t let a mirror or anyone tell you otherwise . I love you and I won’t let you go no matter what and you are special to me . ” I whispered as she sobbed out silently .
I hate seeing my Isabella like this. The fact that her past is so scary and painful makes me wanna kill any man that touched her . I wish I could take away the pain she is feeling . I wish I could show her that her body or Physical appearance doesn’t define her value . She is perfect just the way she is and I love her .
