It was already 11:45pm when I arrived home, I catwalked in quickly and luckily for me no one was in the living room, I guess mom, dad and Sarah already went to bed besides it's late.
'Hey, you're late, I turned to see Sarah who was holding a glass of water. 'Sarah you're still awake, don't you think it's too late to still be awake, I said.
'Exactly, don't you think it's too late to be returning back home, she said. 'I know, I was busy with work, so is mum and dad asleep, I asked. 'Yes, but they were both waiting for you refusing to go to bed but I promised them that when you return I'd inform them, she said.
'So are you going to inform them, I asked while pleading puppy eyes. 'Uh-uh, let me think. Okay there's no need for you to stare at me like that, I won't go tell them, she said.
'What about the time, I asked. Okay I'll shift the time, if they ask I'll just say you came back around 10:00pm, happy now, she said. " Yes very happy, thank you so much, you're the best, I said and hugged her.
'Have you eaten, she asked. 'Nope but I'll just take some fruits from the kitchen, I said. 'Okay goodnight, she said. 'Goodnight, sweet dreams, I said before I went into the kitchen, took some fruits and went to my bedroom.
Next Morning
'Sarah you sure do have a large appetite, Serena said and Sarah smiled at her while she continued eating her food.
"Mom, dad, Sarah , it's time for me to leave if not I'll be late, Serena said as she stood up and peeked everyone on their cheeks before leaving.
"I'll be going as well, Mr Leo said. 'Honey, I've something important to discuss with you, Mrs Leo said. 'Sarah dear once you're done eating tell the maid to clear the dishes don't do it by yourself, she said. 'Alright, Sarah replied.
Mr and Mrs Leo both went to the study room and Mrs Leo ensured that the door was properly close before Facing her husband.
'Honey I finally found a solution to our problem, she said. 'But the doctor already told us that we can't abort the baby, he said.
'I know, that's why I called one of my old friend, she's actually a doctor and I showed her Sarah's report yesterday. 'So what happened, he asked.
"She told me that Sarah has a deep womb, so her pregnancy won't be that visible on time and this has made me come up with an idea, she said.
'We can set up sarah on a date with some good suitors before her pregnancy becomes visible, she said. "No, I don't think that's a good idea, if Sarah ends up loving someone she would be true to him and end up telling him about her pregnancy, so we can't afford to take that risk, he said.
"I also came up with plan B, we can keep Sarah confined in the house when her pregnancy starts becoming visible then after the delivery of the baby, we would drop the baby in an orphanage home, she said.
"I don't think I would be able to betray my daughter like that and make my grandchild homeless when I know that I'm more than capable to take care of him/her, he said.
"Honey we're talking about Sarah's future, so you would need to be strong, she said.
