Emily's POV
Barely one month after I had left Liam, in the morning when I woke up, I missed my period. What! could I have been pregnant for Liam? Just then, I felt nauseated, I ran immediately to the rest room and throw up. I actually came up with the idea of visiting the doctor.
After work, I decided to branch at the government hospital for a check up. After a brief interrogation with the doctor, I was asked to bring my first urine in the morning hours for pregnancy test.
The next day, I had my sample ready to be taken to the hospital for a check up, I had fully dressed up for work, but I had to go to the hospital first for the test, so I left with the sample.
At the hospital, I handed over the sample to the doctor, waiting for the result. "Mrs Emily, your test result is out and I'm glad to announce to you that you've taken in. Congratulations to you Emily, the doctor said."
I had mixed feelings. I have not been able to conceive after two years of marriage with Liam and I had no hope of conceiving anytime soon, I said to myself.
Cumbered with lots of thought, I couldn't figure out what to do next.I tried reaching out to Liam but he would not take my calls. Maybe he possibly maybe making out with his new wife and doesn't have my time.
But I have to go to the office, I said with a sigh of relief.
At the office, every task seems to be to tedious for me as I was too weak to perform any task. I felt heavily dizzy and everything around is irritating.
At the end of the day I sign off from the office and headed home. According to the doctor, I needed to register for anti-natal.
What do I do? I have no money to Carter for this. Immediately, I had a fresh memory of Liam's offer with a touch of regret, I said, if I had known, I would have accepted the offer, finally the need has shown up.
But, I still needed to maintain my steeze and composure. I'm going to prove an independent woman, never to seek help from someone who despises my existence.
Being excited and worried at the same time I had to look for a better job so as to be able to carter for the anti-natal bills. I took a paper, penned down an application for a position of an screenwriter and a producer.
I went to a filming industry and submitted my application. still working with the first firm while I looked up to the response from the popular filming industry where I had submitted my application.
A week later past and there was no response but then, I have to register for anti-natal, it urgent and necessary for my health and the baby's health. I decided to go to the health to register for anti-natal but the bill was too much to meet up with. The whole money I have saved would go only for the registration and I would be left with nothing.
I then thought of reaching out to my mom, if I could get help from her but all to no avail as she wasn't able to raise such an amount of money.
More and more, I regretted ever listening to my mother's advise. I blame it on you, I'd be in Liam's house and he'd be taking up the responsibility but now, everything is just a mess, I said, hanging up the call on my mother. I thought of another option as contacting Liam for help was a no no option for me.
Maybe, the company where I work can be of help. I just have to try negotiating with the firm for a loan and they can deduct the debt from my monthly payments.
At the office with the manager, we engaged in a negotiation as I told him my current predicament and how urgent I need the money as they were my last hope concerning this matter.
They offered to help me since my reasons for the loan was considerable. The deal was signed, with a two weeks leave and I was told I would only continue working with the firm for five months. Though I felt bad since I had no hope that the industry where I submitted my application would get back to me, possible that I should resume work with them.
I was able to continue with the condition of the firm. Months later, the pregnancy became more visible and there were lots of congratulations from friends and family though, I decided to keep the news away from Liam and his family.
Five months after I had submitted my application for sreenwriting and production, I had a response from the said industry for a contract with them and I was super excited that my dreams came true.
Finally, I have my dream job and would possibly be working from home and have time for my unborn baby, I said with my face stirred up with a smile of joy, I am soon going to be my own boss and possibly have people working under me.
I healed from the break up pain faster than I thought, as I am now overwhelmed with the joy of being able to conceive and having to do my dream job. Barely three months after I started the job, the pregnancy was due for delivery.
Late 3am in the night, I went through pregnancy drama, the pain and stress. I had nobody to call on safe my little house help who is bare 7years old. I called on her for help, trying to reach out to my driver, but I guess he must have been overcomed by heavy sleep.
I had no other option than to call my doctor and inform him about the due delivery. Hi, it's Mrs Emily, calling for help, I'm due for delivery and I need an urgent help as I have no one to help. Doctor being nice replied, madam, there's nothing I anyone can do at the moment since everywhere has been shut down till 5am, and you should known that you are close to being delivered of the baby and book a bed with the hospital so you don't go through such disheartening situation.
Just then, my heart felt like failing but, I still have to try while going through hell, my little maid came up with the suggestion of contacting her class mate's in search for help. Luckily the little boy's parent could be reached, the father of the boy who is an uber driver offered to take the risk by taking me and my little made to the hospital.
I contacted the doctor before we could arrive and he ordered the nurses to attend to me immediately I get to the hospital.
Thanks goodness, the delivery didn't take much time, I was already delivered of the baby before it was 5:30am. Wooooooow, here comes a baby boy, I never had thought I am going to give birth to the right heir to Liam's properties and wealth.
