The D-day, Alexander asked Harper to see him. Finally arrived, Harper from her house began to contemplate within herself if she should respond to Alexander as he had said or not. "My heart is not strong enough to do this with him, but I am scared of what may happen to my mother, who only has a week after that might die if I do not provide the needed amount for her treatment. Again, what about my school fees and getting rid of Carry Over? Is it not better to offer him what he wants, have the money, and settle my bill? " She said to herself as she became more courageous to visit Alexander. Within thirty minutes, she got to school and moved to Alexander office.
Now at Alexander office, she was welcomed officially with a glass of wine. "Sir, I am not here for what to eat or drink. Please let's do this fast and let me have my money and leave your office. " She said, hurrying.
" Calm down, young lady. "I have a change of mind," he said. " What, a change of mind? How, where ,nooooo, you have to do it the way you want today. " She trying to force. But he understood her better. He knew that she was doing it out of depression.
" This is my new plan," he said, adjusting his seat. " I want a contract pregnancy," Alexander added.
" Contract what?" Harper asked, she had already understood where he was going.
"Yes, contract pregnancy," he answered. "See, I won't have sex with you, instead have it done artificially just with your eggs and my sperm. And what I need from this, is a set of twins. Also keep in mind that, just as pregnant women carry their babies for nine month, you will do the same."He explained it to her step by step. " And for your money, I shall offer you One million five hundred dollars, that will change your life." he said.
She was shocked just hearing the money involved and seeing how far it would help her solve her problems, but she thought of how she would face her coursemates, including her family, with a pregnancy without a husband.
"No, I am not interested.All I want is sex," she answered him. "Sorry to disappoint you, but that is the option to get what you want. Give me babies without sex, and go your way after nine months. " Alexander Concludes.
"Hmmm!, Harper paused standing to take her leave. She said, "Let me go and think about it."
looking at him eyebrows to eyebrows, and was about to hitting her foot on the door when Alexander shouted, "Watch your front, young lady." She quickly adheres and that saves her from being hurt.
Getting home, she sat quietly, thinking about the One million five hundred dollars had promised her if only she Concord to his will.
She was still on it when Charlie and the house, " What is really wrong?" Aiden asked her, seeing how bad she was looking. "He had a change of plans and, this time, he promised to offer me a million dollars" Harper sounded. Aiden, who had no idea of what was going on, shouted at the top of his voice. " You have made it." Still smiling, Harper reveals the condition required to be done before laying hands on the money.
" This is a very difficult tax to take. Aiden lamented, knowing full well that his chances of falling in love with Harper again would be slim."You keep laughing at me whenever I say God should punish poverty; if not poverty, what on Earth will make you come closer to him that he had to demand such from you?" Charlie asked her with annoyance.
" You have your life. That is the choice is yours, either to save your mother, your career, or not to do and then lose them all, or to do and preserve them in return. " Charlie exacerbated the situation, but she ended up supporting Harper including Aiden at the end of the discussion, she was also asked by them to persuade Alexander to engage her with an engagement ring. "doing so is to avoid people thinking you got pregnant out of wedlock," they said.
Harper was left with two days to save her mother's life. She then called Alexander on the phone to inform him of her acceptance of the contract. Alexander made an appointment with his doctor. And invited her to the hospital after checking her sincerity about being a virgin. He then asked the doctor to go further with his work. Later did Harper had a successful implantation, Alexander paid into her account one million dollars, which she received the alert immediately. He promised to make the balance after she have deliever the babies. He now lists his conditions.
" Now you are carrying my babies, you won't have to stress yourself much. No more being a cleaner, no more dragging a taxi to school early in the morning. I will get you a driver once your Tommy starts coming up. And finally, you will be living with me right in my house once the pregnancy has gotten to six months, which comes with an engagement ring, to spare you answering many questions outside there." He said and asked if she had questions to ask for more clarity.
"I am pleased with your condition," she said, having heard him said engagement, she feel relaxed.
Harper then sent some of the money to her brother as a hospital bill to begin her mother's medication, lying that she had spent all of her life savings in doing so..She also paid off her bill and replaced some of the clothes she had sold.
A week later, Lewis, at their normal eatery,met with Alexander to celebrate the success of the contract. "Guy, you are really a bad guy.At the same time,you have taught me the simple way of bearing children even without a wife. See, if not for the fact that I have chidren already with Evelyn, I would have done as you just did and saved myself from marriage problems. " Lewis said.
" You think I am called Alexander the Great for nothing? He asked, be proud of his name Alexander in short form Alexander.
They kept celebeating throughout that day at the joint. In fact, Alexander made sure everyone present at the eatery that day ate whatever he or she wanted. "Today is a great day in my life, and I will really appreciate it by paying for your meal." He said happily.
Aside from that, music was played from his phone, he danced to his heart's content, and everyone wondered what had made him so happy; some inquired if he was celebrating his birthday. " Sir, your dance today looks strange ooooo.Are you celebrating a birthday?," Lia one who came to eat at the eatery, asked him..
" Don't worry, soon you will know, but let me break it a little for you. "I am about to be a father." He Shouted. They echo "congrats sir."
"How come, sir, when you don't even have a wife or will you adopt a child? Lia asked the more.
" Don't worry, all I know is that I will soon be a father." He answered her and kept on dancing
Harper starts demanding and having a troublesome attitude as part of her pregnancy experience
Alexander thought he was wise and could avoid nature, began to feel it when Harper pregnancy was already two months old, through her unnecessary demands, but commonly found among pregnant women. She always spits in his office whenever she pays him a visit. The first experience was when she vomited on his body during the night in his house invited by him.
At that same time, she demanded that she wanted to eat Roasted chicken, which must be provided immediately. It was already night. Alexander wondered where he would get Roasted chicken at that hour of the night, but he was lucky to still find it.
The pregnancy not only made her demanding, but it also made her irritable and troublesome. Charlie became the major victim of all of Harper troubles at home. She could mess up the kitchen, expecting Layla to do the cleaning. Sometimes it is the floor, or the dining table, in a comfortable apartment Alexander bought for her. Harper also spends a lot of time in Alexander office, but that doesn't mean he had sex with her; instead, all of his sexual activities are with other girls on campus.
Whenever Alexander notices her coming, he knows that he is already in trouble either taking her out or getting her something that is not commonly found. This was how she kept on disturbing him on a daily basis. The last thing that surprised him was when she had a fight with him in his kitchen on her visit for not getting her the demanded on time.
From there, Alexander began to seek advice from his female colleagues that have children and experience pregnancy. He got his request granted after being informed that it is a part of pregnancy experience and at the same time varies among pregnant women, that is, not every woman exhibits the same attitude at that point.
" So you think you will escape that, eh?" Lewis asked him as he complained to him. "Man, you haven't seen anything yet; in fact, this is just the beginning," he continued. "My wife almost chased me out of the house during hers. She said that my presence annoyed her." Imagine my wife seeing me as an annoyance because of her pregnancy condition, eh! " He screamed! All that Lewiswas busy saying began to scare Alexander, but he feels he is able to face the condition.
Four months later, Harper stomach began to grow more bigger. People around her imagine how she took in. only to conclude that Alexander has finally impregnated her which the thought comes from the constant visiting she does in Alexander office. And as the months kept increasing, her troublesome Attitude kept on multiplying. She promoted to be a fighter in the class with her classmates, but non could touch her in order not to attract the wrath of Alexander. In addition, she also finds it difficult to stay without eating biscuits and her demands every morning is always, kaya, a custard of coconut milk, eggs, and sugar, flavored with pandan leaf, . Failure to do that, she will trouble Alexander at the office or at his house, starting with Charlie, who always wakes up with her.
" Can I ask you a question?" Charlie asked, seeing how unbearable Harper disturbance is becoming. " Is your baby often biting you that makes you turned into a trouble maker suddenly?" Today you will fight me. Tomorrow is Alexander. " What is wrong, should I leave the house for you?" she asked Harper.
" Please don't leave me. You and Alexander are the two closest to me. It's just that I don't know what always comes on me to behave as such. "Please don't leave me," Harper begged her the more.
"If you don't want me to leave you, then control yourself and behave like an adult. You are not the first woman to be pregnant, or are you? She warned and also asked.
As they were busy talking, Aiden stepped into the house without knocking. He saw it as normal as a friend and has been doing it several times, seeing that it is the seating room door.
" Can't you knock before you come in?" Harper asked. Aiden began to wonder where such a question was coming from until he was told by Charlie that Harper had turned into a troublemaker who wanted to burn down the neighborhood with her troubles, including herself, Charlie and Alexander. " Am getting tire of her troubles" Charlie said to Aiden
" Nooooo, don't be tired of me," cried Harper when she over head.
Harper again, demanded cold water from Charlie, and as soon as Charlie brought it, she had a change of mind. " I need warm water, not more cold water. " She demanded, It was at this point that Aiden came to believe that she had really turned into a troublesome because of the pregnancy and that there is nothing pregnancy can't turn a woman into.
He kept watching the drama going on even with himself in the same trouble at the moment when Harper went straight to him, collected the romate in his hand, and switched to her favorite channel, which is Cartoon.
