Lenna's POV
ONE MONTH LATER....
Morning came and its a sunny day who wake me up, I yawned before getting up and rubbed my tummy. I'm now 3 months pregnant, I walked outside my room and went to Dreb. I saw Dreb on the bed and he's still sleeping. I took my phone out my pocket and call my mom.
"mom?"
"how is he?"
"he's fine now and he's recovering."
"what about the plan Lenna?"
"just wait for it ma, until I become his wife" I just smirked while I walked outside Dreb's room.
"Just Promise me Lenna, you will do everything until our plan works"
"I will not let you down ma"
"That's good. Lend me some money I will buy some groceries here in the house. We don't have any food to eat"
"I lend some mom, I just for it. I'll text you if I got the money"
"Good girl Lenna" I ended the call and it saddened me to do this but I have to. I have to do this for my family and my child. My mom told me to get some money to Dreb and this is why I got pregnant. The truth is , this is not Dreb's child. The father of this kid is my boyfriend there in Mindanao. I lie to Dreb enable for me to get some money and to treat my father in a hospital. My father has cancer in the heart, the operation will cost much and this is why I do all this thing.
I was about to went on the kitchen when my phone rang again, It made me angry when my boyfriend calls me. He's irresponsible and didn't want to take care of our kid. He always want some money from me, and I don't give some? He beats me, he always hurt me but my family didn't know about it.
"Hello?"
"Lenna, where's the money I told you?"
I sighed before answering him " Just give me some time Brendon. I promise I lend you some money. "
"Lenna, if you forget about the money. I'll tell your family that the kid is mine. And I will contact the rich man you'll living right now. I assure all of them to know the truth" He even threatened me , I just take some deep breath. "I promise I will lend some money tomorrow" I ended the call as I heard someone ring the doorbell.
It's doctor Noel and he's too early to come here. I opened the door and greeted him. "Good morning Doc, I will make some breakfast"
"No, it's fine I just went here to check on Dreb. He's getting better and I think he can walk now. "I was happy to hear that and it also saddened me to know the plan is working really well.
Doctor Noel went to Dreb's room and I started to cook some breakfast. It's about 20 minutes when Doctor Noel went out with Dreb. I looked at their direction and saw Dreb is now standing like he's normal now.
"Good morning Lenna" He greeted me and went downstairs towards me.
"Good morning Dreb" I smiled at him and prepare the food and put in the dinning table.
"Let's eat" I looked at Doctor Noel but he said his goodbye and leave the room. Dreb looked at me and smiled. " I can finally walked Lenna and the wedding will be perfect" He look really happy and I feel guilt in my heart. I was staring at him and a tear went out from my eyes.
"Hey? Why are you crying?" he asked me and sit besides me. He touched some of my hair and rubbed my head with his smooth palms. He comforted me but I will going to take advantage at him. How can I be so bad at a man like Dreb?
" Shhh, don't cry I'm here now " I smiled and wiped my tears out.
I was so lucky to have Dreb with me but I'm going to ruined it because of my family. It's really painful seeing him happy and not knowing what I'm planning to do with him.
"Dreb?"
"uhmm?"
" Can I borrow some money ? I will go to buy some clothes for the baby"
He just nodded and take his debit card on his wallet. He handed it to me , I take it and I promised to bring it back. "I'm sorry to do this Dreb" I said on my mind while looking him smiling at me. I fake smiled and we started to eat.
After we eat the breakfast he volunteer to wash the dishes and he wants me to relax just now. I was sitting on the sofa on the living room and texted Brendon that I got the money.
"Who's texting you?" I was about to jump when Dreb was on my back. I hid my phone to my pocket and acted normal. " It's my mom, she said she miss me so much"
"Don't worry will going home soon. " he hugged me and smiled .
It's dark and Dreb is now cooking, he was happy while cooking. "It's ready"
I looked at him and went on the kitchen, I sit down and he put the foods on the table. "Help yourself"
I just nodded and started to eat, it was delicious and I really don't expect to Dreb such a good cooker. I looked at her and make a big thumbs up with a wide smile.
"You really like it?"
I just nodded and continue to eat until I finished the food. He want me to relax and I went to my room. I lay on bed and look at the ceiling, "What am I doing now?"
I closed my eyes but someone is calling. I took my phone and answer it. "Hello?"
"Lend me the money tomorrow" Brendon said and I'm now feeling stress. I don't know what I'm doing right now. Everything they said I always say yes to them. " Why can't I say no?" I asked myself while looking at the window on my room.
"Lenna? You listening?"
"Yes, I promised I will lend the money tomorrow" I ended the call and put the phone on my side table. I sighed and slowly closing my eyes to sleep. When I woke up, I smell something like eww. I get up and saw the food on the table. I cover my nose and I was about to vomit, I don't like the smell. It's really stinky and I don't like it.
I rushed to the bathroom and I vomit. "Dreb!" I shouted and he enter the bathroom.
"What happened to you?"
"The smell of the food, I don't like it , I hate the smell"
"The food I prepare I the food one you like" I was wandering too why I hate the smell. I think it's because of my pregnancy. "Don't worry I get rid of the food. " he assisted me and get rid of the food. I sighed and took some deep breath, I can normally smell everything now. I went downstairs and saw Dreb cook something else. I smiled at him and hugged him at his back.
"I'll cook something for you. I hope you will love this" I let go of the hug and took my phone on my pocket. I saw the missed call from my mom and Brendon, it makes me stress day by day. I hold my head and suddenly I collapsed.
"Lenna!!" I saw Dreb walking towards me and finally I closed my eyes.
When I open my eyes I was at the hospital, I looked around and saw Dreb beside me sleeping. My phone is ringing and I reached it out in the table. I answer the call of Brendon. "Hello?"
"Where is the money?" he asked me and I think he's drunk. He's voice is kind different from the normal.
" I will send it tomorrow, I got hospitalized just now Brendon" I ended the call and throw my phone on the wall. It makes a loud noise cause Dreb to be awake.
"What's wrong?"
"Someone is threatening me" I said and closed my eyes.
"Don't be stressed anymore, I'm here you can say all to me"
"I'm afraid what happen to us after our marriage " I look down but he raised my head by his hands.
" I'm here, you don't have to worry anymore" I just nodded and smile at him.
I feel a bit happy now and I looked at him. He lean towards me and he was about to kiss me when suddenly the Doctor came in. He hurriedly stand and fix himself, the Doctor looked at me and it looks like something bad happened. I got nervous and rubbed my tummy.
"Mr. Mendoza? Mrs. Mendoza?" the doctor said and it cause me to get shocked.
"Yes doc??" Dreb answered and looked at me.
"You should take care of yourself Mrs. The baby might die if you didn't pay attention to it" I rubbed my tummy and I was nervous what if my baby would die? What if Dreb leave me without the baby? I can't loose my baby.
"We will take care of the baby Lenna . Don't worry" Dreb hugged me and just gave me a wide smile.
