*Two Months Later *
I kept my hand on my already too big belly, and sighed. Jeez, I look like a whale already, no an elephant. Tyler and Jake had told me that I was just pregnant and not fat, but every time I look into the mirror, I only see myself as fat and not pregnant.
I know I am pregnant but, I don’t even know. I stuffed the paper that was kept in my bag this afternoon at the shopping mall inside my pillow case where I kept the rest.
Yeah, I have still been getting threat letters for the past two months, and I haven’t told anyone yet, I was told not to tell anyone so I didn’t. Because it was said that if I did, one of my loved ones will pay the consequences.
I am afraid of that, that’s why I don’t want to tell anyone, especially Tyler. And if he should find out I hadn’t been telling him about the letter, he is definitely going to blow off.
My sister has been living with Tyler and I. Troy hasn’t still left Tyler’s house like he said a month ago. He and my sister are hitting it off already. I don’t even know what he does for a living.
Troy already apologized about breaking our friendship in university, and told his reason why he did that, which was really stupid to me.
I placed my hand on my exposed skin, and looked into the mirror. My stomach was too big for two growing fetus inside of me. Maybe it was me. Well I was already eight months and a week pregnant, and I am sure that I will deliver anytime from now. My due date is October 23 and we are in October 2.
I was so lost in my thoughts that I didn’t notice someone had wrapped their hands around my stomach until they talked behind my ear.
“What has gotten you so lost in your thoughts?”
I opened my eyes, and looked at the mirror. I saw Tyler, and my breath almost seized.
This man was so handsome for his own good. He was just in a pair of sweatpants and no shirt, and the sweatpants which was dangerously low, showed off his V line. He just looked like perfection in my eyes, like God took his time creating him.
His lips formed into a smirk, as if sensing I was ogling him. Well, I can’t help it, and the why my heart is raising now, is unhealthy.
“Uh, I am not really thinking of anything in particular. I am just thinking of how it feels to give birth, and I heard it is painful.” I said wincing a little. A small lie doesn’t hurt, right?
“Hey.” Tyler turned me around to face him, and he caressed my face so gently. “It’s going to be alright, we will get through this.” Then he grinned. “I can’t wait to become a father.”
His grin was contagious, so I grinned back. “I can’t wait to become a mother, either.” I just realized how happy I am, that I am actually going to become a mother in few weeks to come.
Then my grin fades off when I remembered my baby that I lost, just because of someone that wanted me to back off from Tyler. I was wondering if I should tell Tyler about the letter, so that we wouldn’t lose this babies too.
“Baby, what’s wrong?” Why did he have to call me baby? My heart is doing a lot of flicks and there are billions of butterflies dancing in my stomach right now. Does he know Jake and I are not dating?
I think he understood why I was frowning, because he hugged me sideways. “It’s okay.” He said and kissed my forehead.
I can’t think straight again with this physical contact I am making with him, and I love the heat coming from his body. All this was sending shivers down my spine.
I was really horny now. I didn’t know what to do, and doing something with Tyler wasn’t an option. I still don’t know is intentions towards me apart from the babies.
I looked up at Tyler, and my heart skipped a beat because he was already looking at me. His eyes flickered from my eyes to my lips repeatedly, but it lingered on my lips a little longer.
I thought I had a lot of self control, but right now…
He was already bringing his head closer to mine. “I want to kiss you so bad.”
My door flew open. “Is anyone…”
