CHAPTER 4

1234 Words
-YOU ARE PREGNANT- " You are so beautiful my darling. I am not saying this because I am drunk, I am saying this because it is the truth. I am sorry that I have never noticed this before. Tonight though you look so different and I swear I might be falling for you," Richard told Anabelle as he played with her hair and she felt beautiful, for the first time ever. She never knew that she was so beautiful until this very moment. He noticed her. He loved her. The problem is that despite her strong attraction towards him, she had to keep her distance. Richard was her sister's husband for Christ sake and she should know any better than having wild thoughts about him. " I love you," Anabelle admitted this to herself and him but he didn't respond since he was already snoring. Damn! Anabelle slowly got out of the bed. Gigi had warned her against overstaying her welcome because that would get them caught. She had sworn to protect her secrets and despite what she felt in her heart about him, she had to leave. As she made for the door, tears started streaming down her face. She didn't want to believe that this was surely over. This was like a game where she played her part and that is over. As soon as she stepped out, Gigi grabbed her forcefully and walked her down the hallway. " What the f**k, b***h!" Gigi cursed once they were at a safe distance where Richard could barely hear them. " What? What have I done?" Anabelle asked in a low voice, avoiding eye contact with her so that she would not suspect that she was crying. " What took you so long? What were the two of you actually doing?" Gigi asked. She felt so jealous. Never once had she spent so much time with Richard having s*x. What was so special about their love making session? " You want me to get to the details, right?" Anabelle got hold of her emotions and started addressing the situation. " f**k, why are you crying?" Gigi asked when she realised that she had tears in her eyes. Heck! She had blown her cover. " Nothing," Anabelle said, looking away. She was not about to open up to her sister that she was going to miss her husband after the intense love making session that they had. " You should go home now. Your work is done here. I have already requested my driver to take you home. Go now," Gigi said and this was the most difficult thing. Anabelle didn't want to leave. When Gigi threw her a piercing look, she knew that she had to go. This was not her house, her work here was done. On the ride home, Anabelle could not stop crying. She didn't want to believe that this is how it ends. She felt like she was being used but the irony is that she agreed to all this in the first place. She allowed herself to be carried away by Richard yet he didn't know her let alone care for her. She should definitely have known better. It is going to take a while to forget him based on what they shared, he is the man who broke her virginity for goodness sake. Anyway, it had to be done. She had to move on with her life as if tonight never happened. When she arrived home, she found her father still awake. " How did it go?" He asked. " Everything went according to plan," She said with a small smile. " Cool," He mumbled before grabbing his glass of whisky and walking away. Anabelle could not believe that this was happening. She had just done the most to get him to like her and all that he says is, cool? She couldn't take it. She rushed to her room and locked herself in. She jumped to her bed, hugged her pillow and started sobbing. She regretted every bit of tonight. She had second thoughts about this. It turned out that she didn't want to be pregnant for Richard. This is a game and she feels that she is the one who is going to get hurt. ** Gigi slept next to Richard and he kept pulling her closer and kissing her. This had never happened before. Richard had always been so distant with her. What is it about Anabelle that awoke this side of her? Gigi lit the nightshade and then she saw what got her heart racing. There was a blood stain in the white sheet. She never knew or ever thought that Anabelle was a virgin. Damn, her husband broke her sister's virginity. This did not sit right with her. She went to the bathroom and started crying. She wondered why her sister is always better than her in everything. She is always second in things when she gets involved. If her father had not banned her from the bride selection process then she would have won and she would be in her position at the moment. Gigi decided that she was not going to allow her to win. Not anymore. She is definitely going to do something about this. She is going to be on top of her game and will make her life a living hell so that she never stands a chance. Wiping her tears away, Gigi went to join her husband in bed. Of course she changed the covers. She didn't want Richard finding out that he f****d her sister who was better than her in all aspects. ** Anabelle barely managed to take a pill to protect herself from the pregnancy since her father had installed CCTV in her room. She was not allowed to leave until it was confirmed that she was pregnant. She had to eat healthy and stay in her room. Even if Anabelle hated this, she didn't have any choice. She had to do it. This day marked two weeks since she slept with her sister's husband. If she says that she had never fantasised about that night then she would be lying. She has fantasised about that night more than once. Actually, that is all she thinks about. She heard a soft knock on the door and before she went to get it, Gigi barged in carrying two pregnancy test kits. She shoved it at her and asked her to go and use it. Anabelle didn't have a choice. It was crystal clear that they were using her for their own benefit. Her father was never going to love her and so is her half sister Gigi. She was so stupid to think otherwise. Anyway, she hoped that the test was going to turn negative. She wanted to get out of this game as soon as possible. She shouldn't have involved herself with them to begin with. Anabelle came back with the test kit and the waiting game began. When the alarm went off eventually, it was time to look and Gigi was the one who did it. Seeing her smiling was her worst nightmare. She knew that her fears had been confirmed. What had she done? " Anabelle, you are pregnant! You are carrying my child," Gigi said. She barely hid her excitement. She couldn't wait to share the good news with her dad.
