PREGNANT FOR A PRINCE : EPISODES 11 – 20
By Faith Lucky
Episode 15
Just a while ago, everything was fine. I was fine and had my future well planned out.
But within the blink of an eye, everything changed.
All my plans were shattered.
How do I cope with this? How do I carry someone else’s child in my womb?
And according to mum, will I really come home after giving birth? What will happen after then?
Oh God!
I heard a knock on the door, and I sniffed and lifted my head.
“Come in,” I said tearfully without knowing who it was.
The door opened, and it was Mandy. I wiped my face immediately.
She came to me quietly and stood beside me in front of the mirror.
“It’s crazy, right?” She asked. “This whole thing – it’s weird. Getting to know you’re about to become a mother when you’ve never even had sx.”
She paused and laughed.
“I’m truly sorry, Zoey. I apologize for the way things have turned out for you. But maybe it was necessary to accept it. Don’t you think?”
I remained silent, holding back tears, as she pulled me into a comforting hug.
“Don’t worry, everything will be fine,” she said soothingly, and I cried on her shoulder. After a while, we released the embrace.
“Mandy,” I sniffed and called out, “I’m deeply sorry for wrongly accusing you of what happened the other night. I… I don’t even know what I was thinking…”
“Hey, it’s okay,” she calmly interrupted me.
“I completely understand, Zoey.”
“Um… the prince is waiting,” she said, and my heart skipped a beat.
“He… doesn’t want you to bring any bags with you. He said everything you need will be provided over there,” she explained.
I nodded and wiped away my tears. I’m pregnant with a prince’s child, huh?
“Come on,” Zoey held my hand, and I followed her out of the room.
We reached the sitting room, where I saw him and my mom together.
They were standing apart, not speaking to each other.
“Are you ready?” the prince asked, and I nodded.
“Good. Let’s go. We’re running late,” he said, leaving the room.
I looked at my mom, who avoided my gaze, and more tears streamed down my face.
Then, I turned towards the door and began walking out. Just as I reached the exit, I heard her call my name.
“Zoey.”
Weakly, I turned to look at her, and she came to me, embracing me tightly.
She held me in her arms for a while before letting me go.
“I’m deeply sorry this had to happen. But I want you to know that I love you, okay?” she said tearfully, but I remained silent.
I gazed at her sorrowfully and turned towards the door.
“I hope this brings you happiness,” I told her and left the house.
I met him in the jeep and sat beside him, feeling immense pain and bitterness.
“Thank you for agreeing to come with me,” he said coldly, and all I could do was sniffle. Immediately, the driver started the car, and we drove away.
Oh, God! I’m going to Egypt, unaware of what awaits me there.
