*_Chapter 17_*
*Oscar's POV*
When Mabel said that, my mum choked on her food and she started coughing.
I glared at Mabel and gave my mum a glass of water to drink.
"What did you just say?" She said, dropping the glass.
"Uhm....I meant that uh...." she said stuttering.
"She's pregnant mum", I said to her, looking away.
"Oh Oscar", my mum said with a sad and disappointed look.
I felt really bad and terrible. The last time she gave me that look was when she caught me in bed with my ex.
My mum actually helped me pull away from that kind of life.
She taught me how important it was to be chaste till marriage. She advised me every single time and kept on telling me to flee from lust.
I don't just know how I got myself in this. I wanted to blame Mabel but I allowed it to happen. So it's my fault.
How did I forget about the consequences. How did I not use protection?! But she once said she was in her safe period. Well, I don't understand these things. She's pregnant now, that's what matters.
"Mum, I'm so sorry, but we were already going to get married, so it's fine", I said to her.
"So you finally trapped my son", my mum said to Mabel and I got offended.
"Mum, I'm the one to blame. She didn't do this alone", I said to my mum.
"Oscar, she trapped you. If he was already going to marry you, why couldn't you tell him to wait till after marriage, huh? You just couldn't keep your legs closed", my mum said to her.
"Mum you....".
"Shut up Oscar, I'm not done. And you, how dare you disappoint me like that. You've just plotted a sin in her belly. Your baby is supposed to be a blessing to your marriage and not a product of your nasty behaviour", she said to me and I felt really ashamed.
"It's been done, we just have to accept it like that. Have you started the wedding preparations ?" She asked, changing the topic.
"Yeah, we're going for the invitation cards right from here", I said, looking away. I couldn't look at her face.
"Okay and have you spoken to her parents yet?" She asked.
"Yes mum but not about her pregnancy ", I said.
"She has to tell her parents", my mum said, glaring at her.
"Yes mum, I will", she said and my mum nodded.
We continued with our food. Actually they did. I couldn't eat my food.
I just say there thinking of my life.
*Natasha's POV*
I was in my office sorting out files when the door opened.
Not again, I said to myself when the door opened.
"Hello Natasha".
"Hello Dr Lucas. Do you need something?" I asked him and he sat down without me even telling him to.
"How are you doing?" He asked me.
"I'm fine and you?"
"I'm good. I heard that you've called off your engagement and I wanted to make sure that you're fine".
πππ
"It's an engagement not a life and yes, I'm fine", I said to him.
"Okay, we thank God. Uhm, will you be free this evening?"
"Uhm. I'll be resting this evening", I said to him with all honesty.
"Oh. Can you make time for me to take you out for dinner?" He asked.
"No, Lucas. I'll love to rest and be on my own this evening", I said, bluntly.
Lucas is really annoying, he's been worrying me ever since he got transferred to this hospital. Even when I was with June, he didn't stop.
"Okay, another time then", he said. He was about to talk again but was interrupted when a super excited April walked in.
"I'll take my leave then", he said and he left.
"Tasha", she exclaimed.
"What is it?"
"Guess who got herself a brand new car?"
"Me??" I said, laughing.
"Dummy!! You and I", she said, jumping.
"Wow, what car?" I asked, also getting excited.
"Follow me to the car park and stop asking silly questions",she said, pulling me out of the office.
We went to the car park and I saw a black Toyota highlander.
"Wow, April. This is so gorgeous. I'm happy for you. You finally got what you wanted.
"I know right. I really worked my butt off for this", she said smiling.
"It's really lovely".
"Yeah, you need to learn how to drive, so that you can drive it when you want it", she said and I smiled.
"Who said I can't drive"
"Please don't start. I don't want you to die before me. You think I want to mourn you", she said, laughing.
"Anyway, was that Dr Lucas in your office earlier on", she asked.
"Yeah and as usual he was asking me out to dinner ", I said.
"And what did you say? "
"No of course".
"You don't have June anymore oo. You have to start being friendly. A dinner won't hurt", she said.
"Well, I don't like Lucas at all. So a dinner would hurt because I'll have to pretend through out. I don't like such stress".
"Okay oo. I just came to show you my car. I'll be heading back to work now. I'll talk to you later", she said, hugging me and she got into her car and drove off.
*Oscar's POV*
Mabel and I were in the car arguing.
She was talking ill about my mum's actions and I had to shut her up.
"Fine. Go and marry your mother then. Stop this car right now, I don't want this anymore. I'll raise the baby on my own", she said.
I can't let her take my baby away from me, so I had to calm her down but she kept yelling.
As I was trying to calm her down, I lost control of the car and we ran into a tree with a huge force.
I hit my head really hard on the steering wheel, but I was conscious enough to call the ambulance.
Mabel just laid there unconscious and I panicked and hoped for the ambulance to get here in time.
