Arthur’s Pov:
I arched my eye brows in surprise.
What the hell is father talking about?
Why would he say never to my new relationship with Aliyah?
I looked at Aliyah who was tensed up but I patted her back and signalled her to calm down.
“What are you saying dad?” I asked breaking the silence.
“What else do you want to hear Arthur? I just said you can’t have anything to do with this girl” Dad repeated staring hard at Aliyah who tears circulated in her eyes.
“Dad?” I freaked out.
“Son you should understand your father…. He must have his reasons for whatever action he takes…. Besides I thought that you and Natasha are together?” Mom became confused.
“That is not the case here mom…. What reason does dad have to stop me from having anything to do with her?” I flared up.
“Arthur for the fact that she is a Dela Cruz,,,, I forbid you from having anything to do with the Dela Cruz’s” Dad said as I furrowed my eyebrows.
“The Dela Cruz’s?” Aliyah mumbled.
“Huh? What did the Dela Cruz’s do dad?” I asked.
“We can’t have anything to do with them and that is final as a matter of fact Miss Dela Cruz I want you out of my house this instant” Dad shouted at Aliyah who became startled.
” Am sorry sir” Aliyah cried as she quickly stood up and turned to leave but I held her wrist.
“No dad…. I don’t care what you have against the Dela Cruz’s or what they have against you,,,, but I won’t let whatever enmity between you guys destroy our relationship” I said boldly as my mom stared at me in shock.
Maybe because I don’t talk back at my dad.
But no this time I have to stand up for my Aliyah and for my unborn child.
“No Arthur! Please I don’t want to create a rift between you and your family…. That’s the last thing I want” Aliyah cried.
“Say no more Aliyah…. Nothing and no one will come between us” I snapped.
“You will dare disobey me Arthur?” Dad widened his eyes.
“Yes Dad…. I do whatever it is that you want and however you want it dad but this time am sorry to disappoint you but there is no freaking way I will do as you say” I replied.
“Arthur? Shut up! You have no right to talk to your father in such a tone just because of this…” Mom pointed at Aliyah.
“I won’t have you insult her mom” I shouted back to my parent’s surprise.
“Now you get out of my house” mom yelled Aliyah who was already scared but I held her hand.
“She’s PREGNANT” I said as everyone gasped.
“WHAT?” Mom and dad shouted.
“You heard me mom and dad” I repeated.
“I don’t care….. She should get rid of that thing” Dad said as I flinched.
Aliyah freed her wrist from my grip and ran off in tears.
“Dad? Are you that inhumane?” I yelled as he landed a slap on my cheeks.
“Shut up Arthur” Dad screamed at me.
“Why dad? Why should I shut up? You are telling me to get rid of my child and you expect me to shut up?” I screamed out.
“I don’t care how you feel Arthur but you won’t dare go against me… And if you dare try to go ahead Arthur then consider yourself disowned by me” Dad said as I scoffed.
“Liam???” Mom screamed at dad.
“I don’t care what you guys think but both of you cannot stop me from being with Aliyah and there is no freaking way am getting rid of my child and yes you are so free to disown me but I will never disown my child like you” I said as I glared hard at them before rushing after Aliyah.

Mrs Rodriguez’s Pov:
I watched Arthur run out of the house as I took a sharp exhale.
I managed to sit heavily on the couch while my husband paced around the room.
“Sweetheart I think you really went too far” I broke the silence.
“Far how? What do you mean far?” He shouted.
“Why would you tell him to get rid of the child? Your grandchild? Your flesh and blood?” I snapped.
“Tch…. Because you don’t understand I don’t want to have anything to do with descendants of Gregory Dela Cruz” He said bitterly.
“What the he.ll happened between the Dela Cruz’s and you?” I asked.
“That family and my family will never have anything to do with each other…. Enemy we are,,,, enemy we will continue to be” He said with finality in the tone of his voice.
“What really happened?” I asked as he shook his head.
“That Gregory is a damn ba$tard! I don’t want to talk about it but listen up woman you better go talk to that son of yours before he does something he will regret” Liam said as he walked away in anger.
I breathed heavily as I scratched my head.
Of all the people why the enemy???

Aliyah’s Pov:
I ran as fast as my legs could carry me out of the mansion.
Life is so unfair to me and I don’t understand why.
Just when I thought everything is getting better now this?
I thought I wasn’t going to be humiliated by my dad like he used to since Arthur was ready to own up to his responsibility.
Now his parents doesn’t love me.
I can’t believe our families are enemies so what now will happen to my baby?
My cell phone rang aloud and I picked it up.
It was Pearl.
“Hey girl… Have you met his parents? What are they like?” She asked anxiously.
“They hate me so much Pearl” I burst into tears.
“What?” Pearl gasped.
“I’ll talk to you later” I said as I hung up.
Then I heard my name from behind and turned around, it was Arthur.
He rushed to me and hugged me tightly.
“Arthur this isn’t going to work anymore” I cried.
“Who said so Aliyah? I don’t care what they think but I will never leave you” He said as I cried in his arms.
“But…..” I tried to speak.
“No buts….. I’ll go see your father tomorrow” He said as I nodded while he wiped off my tears.

“He.ll no… I won’t have anything to do with the Rodriguez’s” My dad screamed to the astonishment of all of us.
“But daddy am pregnant for….” I tried to speak.
“I don’t care Aliyah…. I don’t even want to set my eyes on you ever again… Get out of my house with that contaminated blood in your womb” Dad shouted as mom rushed to me.
“But Sir I sincerely love and want your daughter to….” Arthur said.
“Shut up….. Get out of my house and you Aliyah get out as well,,, from today you cease being my daughter and being a Dela Cruz” Dad screamed…….
