HEART ROBBER : CHAPTER 41 – 50
CHAPTER 44
Time slowed and all she could hear was her heart beating so fast and so loud
All this was a tale to prove that she can put Jimi in his place. Mess him a little and then call it quit
Yeah maybe she linger around it for too long over four months to be precise only just to get him to fall hard enough
She did not see any of this coming
That he would actually buy into this game and then fall in love so much he would ask her to marry him
That’s way too much
“No… ”
She heard herself whisper
“. No.. ” She whispered again until she slowly returned her breathing down it’s pace
“What…..!”
“I said No!……. No am not getting married to you….. No! No!!” She yelled her pulse raising again
“Sweetie… ”
Jimi stood up and moved closer to her, he couldn’t believe she was rejecting his offer
“I know it’s a lot to take in honey just take a deep breath. You don’t have to answer in a rush….. Hey just look at me”
She stood up holding her pulse firmly to hide her trembling hands
“what do you think you are doing Jimi. How can you be asking me to marry you”
“Because I love you Diana and I want to spend the rest of my life with you”
“What makes you think I want to spend the rest of my life with you”
“I don’t know but ….”
“But nothing Jimi, you are making a big deal out of nothing……
oh so just because you do something ro.mantic you think you can just have your way, ask me to marry you and I’ll jump at the offer. Well that’s not happening.. I sure as h’ll won’t get married to a man who has slept with more than half the women in this city and you want to turn me to a trophy wife and am suppose to be happy about it”
“You’re right, am not perfect, I know I don’t deserve you but I want this to work with you, if only just gimme a chance”
“A chance is what brought us to this point Jimi. You’ve exhausted all chances Jimi, You don’t deserve anything more. You ruined it for everyone. Why must you be so complicated And selfish. Must I link my life to you just do it can make sense”
“Look Baby I know it’s alot to take in, I know I’ve been a jerk but I want to make amend, I want to start afresh with you because…. I love you… I really do”
“Wow the best player at breaking people’s heart finally falls in love how terrific .. You deserve a round of applause and a standing ovation, am not doing this with you. It’s not going to happen”
He interrupted her and smashed her mouth covering her’s with a breath taking kss with people chanting over them, as usual Diana couldn’t pull away until he finally moved away and Diana sIapped him hard on his face while she tries to catch her breath
He keeps doing this
Trying to take advantage of her
Trying to make her fall for his tactics
Not this time. This is the end of the road
“Let that be the last time you would bring your disgusting mouth anywhere close to me. Don’t you have any bit of shame after everything you’ve done you think you deserve to be happy. So s¢rew you and your stupid excuse of a proposal to tie me down and treat me like garbage the moment you get what you want”
“You are mistaken Diana, I dont want your body. It’s not about your body it’s about you and your beautiful soul, it’s about Abby and the wonderful future we could build together”
“There’s no US in this context Jimi, you are not a part of my family and you are never going to be, stop creating this fantasies in your head because it’s never going to happen and I don’t want you anywhere near me or my daughter”
“Diana pls just take a moment to think about this”
“I don’t need a moment, I had drenching four months of t@rture to live through it and I don’t even know why I didn’t say No to you from the beginning . This was a complete waste of time and it’s over now……. Bye!”
she turn around and stormed away leaving behind a devastated emotionally wrecked Jimi
HEART ROBBER : CHAPTER 41 – 50
********FLASHBACK**********
Diana :
I watched Dorcas stare at herself through the mirror, she’d turn sides just to see the baby bump, somehow I had to convince myself that she was being paranoid and her tummy is just the same as before but it isn’t… Maybe not too obvious but something is clearly popping out
The last few weeks has been for clarity and confirmation, we’ve tried several urine samples and they all turned positive, the third month has gradually passed and still no blood flow, we then decided to visit a local clinic for final prove, The test came out two days later and it was positive again
Dorcas’s eating habit is way out of control… She’s always hungry and chews her tongue endlessly as a sign of unstoppable hunger. A few times she had thrown up. Somehow we’ve been able to manage this on our own spending most time in our room, googling pregnancy symptoms and risks
“Didi, I know you say you don’t see it but am sure even if I wear my biggest overall I’ll still show…. .”
“Don’t be silly, it’s the earliest stage, its still the same as yesterday”
“No Didi, something’s different… I can feel it grow. He or she is trying to manifest”
“Now that’s just sentimental, You are acting like one of those women”
“Like it or not I am one of those women…. Pregnant , lonely confused and depressed women, I think the sooner I start admitting it to myself the better”
“DC…” I whined running out of words to say
“I still believe there’s a way out of this”
“What way! We’ve exhausted all options and the only thing left is for us to tell mom and dad, I mean for me to tell mom and dad”
“Hey ” I stretched myself to grab her hand in mine
“we’d better find a way to tell mom and dad, remember we’re in this together and whatever happens… We’ll still have each other”
“Thanks didi…. You know sometimes I wonder why you are not the oldest, because when I look at it fairly you are every bit smarter than I am, more confident than I could ever be and very matured and sensible”
“Well am all those things because I learn them from you, You know you are not just my sister, You are my best friend and my mentor. I look up to you DC’
“Oh pls don’t look up to me What exactly am I teaching you, how to get an unwanted pregnancy”
“Cmon DC, I never see you like that… You might have made a mistake but look at you pulling through like the strong woman that you are”
“Am not that strong Diana, even if I don’t admit it to myself often I know that I would have crumbled into a million pieces without you by my side, you’re my rock Didi thank you for being the best sister in the world”
“And I will be here with you, every step of the way”
“Thanks kiddo, You are so adorable didi”
“And so are you”
“So do you think mom and dad would want me to have an abortion”
“What! Noo! Of course not, am sure they wouldn’t even want you to risk your life. Why would you even say that”
“But they’ll be disappointed for sure”
“Even so, they would never put you in harms way whether or not they approve of it… Nothing is worth losing your life”
“Oh Diana, You are such a blessing… I Don’t know what I would have done without you”
“What’s with all the praises, I didn’t know being pregnant makes you this vulnerable and sweet”
Just like that, the door flung open and a very confused looking version of our mom walked in,, we didn’t exactly know what to expect so we both pretended to be having another kind of conversation
“Who is pregnant…. ”
Her words sounded so shocking that we nearly jumped out of our skins
“…. I said which one of you is pregnant..” She raised her voice in a terrifying tune and stared simultaneously before settling her gaze on me, she started walking towards me and at that moment I knew my mother thought I was the pregnant one
“Omotere am talking to you….. Can’t you answer ”
her voice broke and without thinking I started crying furiously
“You did it didn’t you, You had sex… Unprotected sx and now you are pregnant at what age.. What is wrong with you, what have you done you foolish girl what have you done”
She was crying now and before her hands could reach me with her claws starting to grow ready to scratch the life out of me, I jumped off the bed muttering
“Mommy am not pregnant, is not me…”
“Oh don’t gimme that have been seeing you sneaking food and the other day I saw you dispose urine samples. You just finished secondary school for God’s sake Tere and the next thing you could think of is getting pregnant… Like I don’t talk to you, like I didn’t train you, what demon posses you this stubborn girl for you to humiliate this family like this.. what have you done….. What have you done” she was crying furiously with her hands on her head
“Am the pregnant one… Mom ”
a voice rose above my mom’s voice and we both turned to look at Dorcas standing by the toilet door apparently she had thrown up again during the confusion era
“What! ” My mom murmured unable to understand a word she just said
“Didi is not pregnant mom, its me, am pregnant… The food she’s been stealing are for me. I am the one who has humiliated our family”.
I pressed my lips together as tears rolled down, this is not how we plan to inform our parents but I guess it had to be one way or the other
My mom’s face drain with shock as she slumped to the bed with both hands still firmly on her head and I took that as a cue to leave the room unnoticed
I could understand why my mom confused or expected me to be pregnant, it was because of my lifestyle and exposures
Growing up I was the complete opposite of my sister while Dorcas was the obedient intelligent careful daughter I was the ruthless stubborn careless rebellious one.
I hated church programs, family reunion and preferred to mingle with friends.
At a very tender age I have noticed people’s attraction to me and how they usually compliment my beauty, it was an edge to getting what I want which later made us end up in a boarding school
My closest friends were mostly guys and I was addicted to fashion and trendy things but all these was a font to prevent me from becoming notorious even when all my friends think have had sex with all my male friends have never really gone that far
Deep down I was still my dad’s little girl, and my mom’s last born, I still cherish and respect principles and always stick to it even though I wasn’t doing it the right way and even now that the family’s perfect daughter has been slack I was still feeling terrible guilty.
It hurt so much that my mom thinks the worse of me and I cried uncontrollably and even harder as my dad’s car drove into the compound
This was going to change my family for sure
The unwanted pregnancy from a university Playboy
HEART ROBBER : CHAPTER 41 – 50
The next morning the news of Jimi Benson’s failed marriage proposal had taken over the Internet
Jimi was lying on the floor in his apartment with a bottle of empty whiskey in his hands
He had spent the most of the night thinking and questioning himself
Asking himself… ‘what went wrong’
Diana had been perfect, the girl of his dreams the woman who made me so vunerable and detached the tightly sealed container of love he didn’t even know he had
He couldn’t to drown himself in alcohol until he finally fell asleep.
Everything took a turn for the worse. His well built home of paradise came crumbling down in less than ten minutes
He thought his grand gesture is all he needed to finally unlock the restrictions she surrounded herself with but she rejected him in the worse way possible
The door dinged and Jimi groaned
Honestly now is not a good time for anyone to be here right now he just wants to be alone and drown himself till it no longer hurts
He wanted to ignore the doorbell but then he jumped up realizing it could actually be Diana coming back to fix whatever she broke last night
He hurried to the door opened it only to be faced by his mom and his sister
