ROSALIA'S POV
"That's your illusion Rosalia you can never be pregnant with my child" I glanced at him shocked to my core bones.
With what he said I felt broken and shattered beyond repair he so much repulses me to the extent of not wanting a child with me, I mentally asked my self is this pregnancy my illusion too.
With eyes full of tears heart constricting with pain and a head spinning with mental dizziness, I picked up the pen and signed the divorce papers after signing it I handed it over to him, wiped my tears and kept my face looking neutral void of any emotions and said to him
"You are now free from this shackled marriage and me now Mr Alexander George King "
I noticed he kind of looked surprised with the way I called him I always call him George his second name after his grandmother, since we are divorced now I decide not to call him that anymore and also the way my mood changed, I feigned composure on the outside but on the inside I was mentally and really breaking down then I heard him say.
"You can have the house with some other properties listed in the divorce papers as the marriage prenuptials annulment"
"No Mr Alexander I don't need it, it's my decision to agree with the divorce not to get something back in return "
After saying that I went into my room to pack my things I need to leave the house today I can't keep on staying here I would probably die of heartache, I was already done packing on getting back to the living room i noticed he was still there, what am i even saying he could be here anytime it's his house anyway.
About to head out I heard him ask "why do you have a baby's stuff with you"
He said pointing to the bag I brought in with me earlier Oh fuck I have totally forgotten about that, since he doesn't want a child with me he doesn't deserve to know about it's existence, and am also scared he may force me to abort since he wants to sever all ties with me, this is my baby as much as his I would protect it at all costs even if I had to protect it with my life.
With a relaxed demeanor I told him a lie so he wouldn't suspect anything
"Oh that it's for a friend and besides you shouldn't be bothered about it" he looked surprised I guess he didn't expect me to reply with that kind of tone
"I thought you wanted to tell me something earlier" he told me
"Does it matter we are divorced now what I wanted to talk about was meant to be discussed between my husband and I"
On saying that I picked up the baby bag that was placed on the chair and my suitcases containing my stuffs and was about to head out when I heard him again
"Where are you going to at this time it's late you could wait till tomorrow "
"That shouldn't be your concern Mr Alexander I don't need your affection we are divorced now am not your responsibility"
On saying that I left the house and packed all my stuff in the car after arranging them and about to enter the car, I met her she was standing by the window frame of his room blowing kisses and waving at me, he has already made his way back to his room i saw him looking at her, he was gazing at her with love evident in his eyes.
That was the reason he wanted a divorce she's back his ex girlfriend is back, and she has been inside the house the whole time definitely they came together and she heard everything, that was what made him want to sever all ties with me so he could be with her since we are now divorced, I glanced up at her once again and she smiled at me.
My gaze met with Alexander's and we locked eyes for a few seconds and he broke the contact almost immediately that brought an unknown pain to my already distressed heart.
I entered the car and drove away from Bronx to another city far from home,by the time I checked in at an hotel in Houston it was nightfall.
Everything still felt like a total nightmare to me few hours ago I was still married, I didn't bother to tell our families about the divorce because what's there to talk about.
As I sat down on the bed in my hotel room and placing a hand on my belly the tears came running down nonstop, I felt for my baby now my child will grow up without it's father I felt the pain even more than before, and cried bitterly remembering my condition that am now with child I wiped my tears, even though it still came falling little by little I couldn't help it I started assuring myself and my baby.
"Hey baby don't mind daddy he's just stressed up even though he and I might be divorced, he still loves you because you are his flesh and blood, and baby you were never a mistake you are the best thing that's ever happened to us, mommy and daddy loves you so very much"
That's partly true because it was never a mistake to me even if Alexander was not the father, and it may have been anyone else I would love my baby the same way I do now.
I decide I would have my baby here and settle down here in Houston, because i want to move away from Bronx and forget I and Alexander memories there since it was the city I married into, by next week I would go house hunting and start a new job, not that i will run out of money because i have access to my inheritance and apart from my inheritance, i still have quite a large sum of money to take care of my child till he or she grow up, but i don't want to be idle so as to stop thinking about him I need to stop loving him, so as to save my sanity and my baby because my one sided love can never be reciprocated by him.
Four days later I received a joint call from his mom and mine asking about our well being and the Normal stuff they would both ask whenever they call, I guess he didn't tell them anything about the divorce I think it's good that way that he didn't make the divorce public.
Two months later I have already gotten my self a nice apartment in a reputable area here in Houston I live here now I got the house furnished to my taste, and I got registered in a good hospital for my checkups, and today I am going to the hospital to know the gender of my child, on getting to the hospital I have gotten tested and I was sent home, the results would be delivered to me at home because I am going to have a gender reveal party, I made two friends Lucas and Miranda at the grocery store I usually went shopping,they are a nice couple they own the store I like them because they aren't nosy they once asked me about my husband I told them the truth and they never talked about it again.
I already have a little gender reveal get-together planned, I haven't really dwell on thinking about Alexander this past weeks am gradually getting over him and I want to be happy always for the sake of my child I don't want to jeopardize it's health by thinking, i invited Lucas and Miranda over to my house to come witness and celebrate my gender reveal with me.
The gender reveal results was delivered to my house as a balloon since we are having a gender reveal, the little party got started with Lucas and Miranda I was happy because they invited their workers to come celebrate with me, and they all gave me gifts and when it was time to pop the balloons i was met with the greatest shock of my life.
I heard Miranda shout " are you ready to find out Rosalia " of course am ready be it a boy or a girl they will receive equal love from me I then replied her " I am more than ready Miranda" and they all laughed at my little attempt at humor.
Then I started popping the balloons till it remain only two when I was about to pop the two, they brought in another set of balloons are this people kidding me I am already anxious as it is .
So i started popping again and now the balloons is remaining only two I was told to pop the two together when I popped it what I saw made me hysterical.
