Cassandra's POV
I sighed tiredly as I got to my home after convincing my family to let me handle my troubles by myself.
I was glad they let me be even though I obviously didn't have much of a plan and I had no desire to let them down. Calling them could be a side option if things didn't go well but I was pretty sure I could handle it properly.
Even if I had no faith to handle the situation, the child growing in me was enough to give me more hope and a motivation to fight on. My pregnancy had gotten denied by the person responsible but the child didn't suddenly disappear because of that.
I still had to think of how to provide for him or her and even prepare myself for the baby's arrival. Now I needed to make a plan.
I immediately brought out all my bankbooks and began calculating how much I had in total and how much I needed to spend at least for the beginning of my relocation.
It took a long while before I finally finished making all the plans for my money and once I was done, I moved to packing my clothes and belongings.
I intended to leave this country by daybreak tomorrow so everything needed to be prepared already. I really wished that I could take all my clothing with me so that I could sell them and gain more cash but I couldn't do that on this journey.
It would mean too much load for me to haul about and that certainly wasn't what I would need as a person who was moving to a place where I knew no one.
So I arranged only the most important items to go with me on this journey. I made sure that I didn't have more than two bags at the end of my packing and once I was done, I moved to gathering all the stuff in my home.
I also informed my house owner that I would be moving out and made all the necessary calls to conclude everything my life had going on before getting myself in this sticky situation with my former employer.
It was late in the night by the time I was done doing everything that had to be done and at that point where my mind was no longer racing about, that was when the dreariness of my situation hit me once again.
I collapsed on my bed tiredly once I had managed to take a bath and exhaled deeply as I tried to hold back the tears that were threatening to break out.
'You have already cried enough, Cassandra or don't you think so?' I told myself but the tears refused to recede.
Soon, I was crying once again so hurt at the way everything had turned out. It was just one wrongdoing and it had transformed my life totally already.
Ana had betrayed me, for no legitimate reason, and then abandoned me when she was the one who had gotten me into this mess. I couldn't believe that we had been friends for years.
I was still nursing my anger at her when suddenly I had an idea to send her a letter. Ana definitely wouldn't pick my calls after what she had done and I needed to vent my feelings before leaving the country.
That was how I began writing a letter to Ana and soon, I was done then went to drop the letter in the mailbox. It felt very satisfying to get everything I felt towards Ana out in the open.
Soon, my eyes were closed in sleep. My day had been quite a stressful one after all and was capable of inducing immediate sleep out of exertion.
When I woke up the next morning, earlier than usual, I quickly prepared myself for the day then began carrying out the boxes that held my stuff in my home. I had already booked a driver that would carry me and all those loads to my parent's house.
Once I was at my parents' home, I carried all the boxes into my room in the house. My sisters had come around to help me so that was concluded quickly and shortly after, I was taken to the airport where I was to board a plane out of the country.
"I would have liked to go with you if not that I'm presently very busy," Selena pouted as we waited for my plane to be ready for take off.
"I can handle this by myself, don't be worried," I assured even though I was scared shitless.
"It's scary to imagine you being in a place where you don't know anyone who can support you. You're even pregnant too," Mother complained bitterly.
"My pregnancy isn't advanced yet, Mum. I'm sure I would have settled in there properly before my pregnancy becomes very pronounced," I reasoned with a small shrug.
"I just worry, darling. Everything about this relocation scares me, it feels difficult to let you go when you're in such a delicate state," My mother sighed and caressed my hair tenderly. "I had hoped to be fully available to aid my daughters during their pregnancies, it's a pity that my first grandchild is going to be born far away from me."
"I'll raise money to get you tickets to come visit me," I promised.
"Just worry about yourself, I will find my own way to pay you a visit."
My destination soon began getting announced in the airport as being set to leave and I stood to my feet with my two bags.
"It's time for me to go now," I told my mother and Selena who had accompanied me to the airport and they stood up sadly.
"I'm really sad that it had to be this way," Mum exhaled heavily while blinking back tears.
"I am too but we'll be fine," I promised her with a forced smile then we hugged each other.
After bidding my farewells to both of them, I began walking to the plane. That was the first step in starting my new life.
As I looked out the windows of the airplane as it taxied on the runway, I saw the end of a phase of my life. Everything was going to be new soon and someday, I would be back in this country to challenge that Alpha and Ana. I was going to get my revenge on the people who have hurt me, one way or the other.
And by then, no one is going to be able to stop me.
