*_Chapter 15_*
*Natasha's POV*
"God, it's really been quite difficult talking to you lately. I'm so hurt and sad. Not having June in my life is really difficult. I can't even think straight or do anything correctly. I can't😭😭. But today I want to place my hope and trust in you. If truly there's someone there for me, please let me meet the person soon. Whatever is hindering me or preventing me from meeting that person, please destroy it. You know I'm hurting,just do this for me so that I can be happy again", I said to God and I started singing songs or thanks because I was hoping and believing that he had heard me.
As I was on my bed singing, my mum walked into my room and sat by me. She joined me in singing and I started smiling a bit.
"He has heard you sweetie. He has. Your dad and I prayed for you this morning and we know that things will get better",my mum said, smiling at me.
"Thank you",I said hugging her.
"You've still not eaten your food", she said looking at the food that I dumped on the table.
"You're losing weight oo. You have to eat and take care of yourself for the next person who's going to come into your life. You can't give him leftovers oo", my mum said and I laughed.
"I'm just not hungry, mum. I'll eat when I feel the need to".
"Keep wasting my food. I've just left you because of what happened oo. When you're so happy and in love, then I'll starve you", she said, grinning and I laughed.
"Thank you mum for everything. You've been really helpful and patient with me. May God bless you", I said to her.
"May he bless you too sweetie. I've not been seeing April around. Why?"
"I've been shutting her out", I said, feeling really bad.
April has always been there for me in both good and bad times. I don't, but I didn't want her to know about this or be around me at this moment because I felt that she would say things that I don't want to hear. I also didn't want the I told you so look from her.
"Why? She's been really sad and worried",my mum said.
"I was just being stupid, I guess".
"Okay, so you won't be mad when I tell you that I invited her over this night for a girls sleepover and I made her invite some of your other girlfriends", my mum said in an excited tone.
"Mum!! You didn't have to do that", I said to her.
"Oh. Is it that bad? I can cancel it", she said faking a frown.
"No. It's fine. It's a girls sleepover then", I said and my mum squealed.
"What about dad?" I asked her.
"He's travelling. So we'll have the whole house to ourselves", my mum said happily.
I observed her wondering why she was so happy and acting like she was two.
'Let's get the place ready. We have to cook and bake and do a lot of things", she said pulling me out of the room.
*******
In the evening, all my friends came and the girls sleepover began.
April was so excited to see me. She didn't bother talking about June and I was happy.
No one mentioned him actually and I was glad.
We watched a movie together with my mum. My mum and I shared the cupcakes and cookies we baked. We all ate it together with a natural fruit juice.
After watching the movie, we talked a bit and reminiscenced old times.
I felt uncomfortable with some of the things they said in front of my mum. They spoke about my crushes back at school and the silly things I did.
I tried everything possible for them to change the topic but my mum kept asking questions. Oh God, this woman🤦🏽♀🤦🏽♀
Finally, April saved me by yawning and complaining about an empty stomach.
So, we went to the dinning room and my mum served us. The food was in abundance and there were varieties of food.
We all ate to our full. Most of my friends found it difficult to move, so they could just make it to the living room. Some slept on the couch, some on the floor and the others went to my room and the guest room.
My mum, April and I slept in my parent's room.
I just thanked God that tomorrow was Saturday or we would have all been in a big soup.
Fridays are my free days, that's why I was home today.
In all, I thank God for using my mum and friends to ignite the joy and happiness in me. But I'm still hoping that he brings the right person for me soon.
*Oscar's POV*
Mabel and I went to the pharmacy store that evening to get a pregnancy tool kit.
I was so frustrated, devastated and disappointed in myself.
How could I allow this to happen?
Oh God, I'm so sorry, I said, trying to prevent myself from breaking down.
What am I going to tell my mum? What am I going to tell my siblings?
I just pray that she's not pregnant. I can't get a child like this. Children are suppose to be a blessing to us through marriage and not outside marriage.
I know we're going to get married but this is still wrong.
Now, I'll be forced to get married quickly.
God please, I know I wronged you but please do not let her be pregnant.
We bought the kit and we were about to leave, but she insisted that she checked it right away and I nodded nervously.
She asked for the urinal and left.
"Your wife is pretty, is this going to be your first child?" The pharmacist asked and I forced a smile and nodded.
"Congratulations then. She'll definitely be pregnant", he said and I really wanted to punch him in the face for saying that, but I just had to force a smile.
I paced back and forth in the pharmacy. I was really sweating and feeling uneasy.
Mabel stepped out with a huge smile in her face.
"Congratulations baby. You're going to be a dad", she said waving the test tool in my face and my heart almost got out of my body.
😰😰😨😱😭😳
