I'm pregnant.

The pregnancy test said it all. I'm pregnant. I can't believe this. I took it this morning and it's said that I'm pregnant. I took about three times and three of them are positive. Finally, I and Elijah will be a parent. Oh my god! I can't wait to tell him when he comes back. I bet his reaction is priceless. We've been waiting for this moment and god finally gave us.

My life feels more perfect now. We're finally will be parents! I smile and walk out of the bathroom and heading to bed. I take my phone to call Elijah because I want to ask when will he come home. I really need to make preparation before he comes home. I press the call and wait for him to pick up. It's going to voicemail. I frown at it but I just keep calling.

voicemail again.

again

and

again...

After four times I call him, finally, he picks it up. "What?" I smile when I hear his voice.

"Hey baby, I miss you so much. It's been one week since you go to London." I said.

"What do you want?" He asks and his voice seems like he's in a hurry.

"I just miss you, Elijah and I want to ask you when will you comeback?" I ask and my heart feels a bit hurt when he didn't ask if I'm okay or anything.

"Hmm okay. I don't know maybe next week or next month, don't wait for me. I need to go bye." Before I could say anything he just hangs up on me. Maybe he's in a hurry for his meeting. I can't blame him because of it his work. He works hard for our family and I need to understand it.

I rub my tummy. "It's okay baby, I will find a way to tell your father." I smile then suddenly I heard the door bell being press. I stand up and go downstairs to look at who it is. I open the door and it shows Thea standing there with a smile on her face.

"Hey, Alexa." She greets me. "Hi," I said feeling weird because it's been a week since our last talk.

"Didn't you want to invite me in?" I step aside to let her in. We walk to the living room and sit on the couch.

"Well... I know you still mad at me. So I'm here to apologize. I know I shouldn't say to your husband like that. I'm sorry.." She looks at me with a regret face. I stand up from my seat and go sit beside her.

"You know, I'm sorry too because I kicked you out just like that," I said and she pulls me for a hug. I hug her back. I miss her so much, to be honest.

"It's a suffer for me because I can't talk to you for one week. You know, you're my one and only best friend that I know." She said after we break apart the hug. I smile at her.

"I have something to tell you." Of course, I would tell her. "What it is?" She asks.

"Okay... First of all, don't freak out when I tell you."

"Okay okay just hurry up." She looks so excited to know what I'm going to tell her. "Alexa! hurry up."

"Okay... I'm pregnant." She looks surprised then a big smile appears on her face.

"Arghhhh! Oh my god! I'm going to be an aunt. OMG! OMG!" I chuckle at her reaction. Looking at her reaction like this, I'm thinking about how Elijah's reaction will be.

"I told you not to freak out, girl"

"How can I not? you're pregnant!" I smile at her.

"When did you know that you're pregnant?"

"This morning." She hugs me and then smiles. "I'm happy for you, Alexa. I really am." She said. Just then, her phone ring.

"Wait a second." She stands up and goes to the kitchen to take that call. Maybe that's important that's why she didn't want me to hear it. After a few minutes, she walks in with a smile on her face.

"Sorry. It took quite long.." She takes a seat beside me again.

"Nah it's fine. Who's that? Your boyfriend?" I tease her.

"Ew, I don't have any okay. Don't ever think like that, Oh yeah, Alexa let's go and have lunch at the hotel today." She said.

"What for? I mean we can just go out lunch at one of our favorite restaurants. Don't waste money too much Thea."

"Awe Alexa you no fun. We have to celebrate that you're pregnant. Let's go." She said and I raised my eyebrows. "What? Why are you looking at me like that?" She adds. "Let's goooo"

"Okay, I will change my clothes." She nodded her head and I walk upstairs to change.

I pick baby blue jeans and a white shirt to pair it with my nude pink cardigan. For my hair, I just let it down. I comb my hair to make it neater. I put mascara and lipstick. I don't like to wear my make up too much because I prefer to look more natural. I spray some perfume then take my handbag. I take my cream color pump then I'm ready.

I go downstairs to see Thea already standing at the door. "Let's go." She opens the door and we walk to her car. We talk and laugh on the way there. Its feel so good to hang out with my best friend. After a moment later, we finally arrive at the hotel to have our lunch.

"Alexa, why don't we just stay here for one or maybe two days?" She asks when we walk inside the hotel.

"It's so spontaneous Thea, we don't have any spare clothes," I said and she chuckles.

"Pleaseeee... I want to hang out with you. We can buy new clothes to wear or we can wear the same clothes for 24 hours. Come on, It's not like we never have done it before." She pleaded.

"You know I can't say no to you when you did that. Fine..." I gave up.

"Yes. Thank you." She swung her arms around my neck makes me choked.

"Th-Thea let me go." She immediately let me go and I take a breath. "Opss sorry hehe." She grabs my arms to go to the receptionist.

"Hello, welcome miss." The people at the receptionist greeted us with a sweet smile. "Hello. I'm Thea Morris..." I just stay quiet and wait for her.

"Oh, Ms. Morris. It's room 368 on the 10th floor." The woman at the counter said. I look at Thea and raised my eyebrows.

"Thank you," Thea said to that woman and then lead me to the lift. "Woah you already booked the room for us?" I ask and she just smiles at me.

"Alexa I'm sorry to ruin the mood but I need to do this." She said as we walk inside the lift. "Why are you saying like that? Is anything wrong?" I ask and she shakes her head.

"Your my best friend and I want you to be happy. That's it." I just stay silent and wait until we arrived on the 10th floor.

Ding!

We walk side by side until we standing in front of the room that shows number 368. She gives me the card and I take it. "Before you open it I just want to say that I did all this because I don't want you to live like this. I mean yea you will know what I meant..." It's getting so weird why would she say like that?

I swipe the card and then open the door. I walk inside and my eyes widen in shock. I can't believe what I saw right now. My heart just broke in a million pieces. The shirtless Elijah and woman who seems like she's already naked beneath him. I look at Thea but she didn't look at me back and she just face the wall. I don't know what to say this is so unbelievable.

"Elijah!" I found myself shouted his name. I can feel my eyes already blurry because of tears. He looks shocked at first then his face becomes blank. He stood up and standing in front of me. I look at that woman who covered herself with the blanket.

"I thought you were in London..."

"You already see me standing in front of you here." He said and his face doesn't show any guilty.

"Why? Why are you doing this to me?" I ask and now my tears already rolling down my cheeks.

"You want to know why? Because I don't love you anymore. I feel like this marriage was a huge mistake I've ever done in my life. I was thinking why would I have to be tied down so early when I still can enjoy myself with another woman." He said. Then I slap him in his face. He looked shocked and then I can see the anger in his eyes.

"Living with you is such a mistake you know that? So, I want you to pack your things from that house and leave. Don't ever thinks of coming back because my lawyer will give you the divorce paper." He said and now I fell silent and surprised from what he said.

"No... No.. You can't do this to me. I love you with all my heart, Elijah. Besides I'm pre-"

"I don't care. Just get lost from my life because I want to be free and enjoy my life." He said and I can see that woman is smirking at me.

"You! You're the one who makes my husband like this!! You bitch!" I really want to slap and pull that bitch hair but Elijah stop me.

"Alexa! You're not my wife anymore from now. Now, You and your pathetic friend can get lost from my sight because I don't want to see your face anymore." I look at him hoping all this are a nightmare but no, this is real and I slap him again.

"You're going to regret this Elijah. Sooner or later you'll regret this, I'm sure of that." I said to him. His face shows anger cause I slapped him twice.

Thea pull me out from that room and bring me home to pack my things. "Thea, why did he do this to me? I didn't do anything wrong to him. I love him, Thea." She hugs me. "I love him very much and now I'm pregnant with his child. What am I going to do now?" I burst into tears.

"I'm so sorry, Alexa. I need to show you the true color of your husband. I mean ex-husband from now. I don't want you to be like this. Please remember you still have your child with you and also you still have me. I'm your best friend. I won't leave you alone." I wipe my tears and looks at her.

When we arrive at home, I went straight to the room and pack my clothes. I didn't take all of it cause I don't want to take the clothes that Elijah bought for me. I just take my clothes and left all the things that he bought me.

Just then the bell ring. Thea walks downstairs to check who it is while I still packing my clothes. "Alexa.." I turned around and see Thea with one man I guess that's the lawyer that Elijah talked about.

"Good afternoon Mrs. Perkins, I'm Harold. Mr. Perkins's lawyer and I are here to give you this." He gives me like a file and I know what it is.

"I'm no longer Mrs. Perkins. You can call me Alexa... He nodded and I take the file. I take it out the paper to see that Elijah already sign at his part, which means he already planned to divorce me before. This is going to end. My life is not perfect anymore. All of this will be memories and maybe it will disappear like a bubble in the sea. I finally gathered all my strength and sign it. Then give it back to Harold. "Thank you, Alexa, I will get going now." With that, he walks out and I flopped on the floor.

Thea runs to me and helps me to stand up. "Thea, my life is gone." I cry and she just patted my back to calm me down. "You have to be strong. We can start a new life just three of us. You, me and your child." I look at her and she smiles at me. I don't know what to say anymore but maybe what's Thea said was true. He's not the one for me. I need to be strong for this baby. This baby doesn't know anything and does anything wrong.

She helps me to pack up then finally we're done. I look around this room before going out. I left my wedding ring on the table and then walk out of the house. I have to be strong. I still have this baby. I keep that in my mind.

"Alexa, I already booked the tickets for us to go to Los Angeles. It's tonight. Are you okay with it?" I don't have any strength to talk so I just nodded my head.

I need to build a new life for me and my child. Goodbye Elijah. I will do as you say I will never appear in front of your face again. I will never wants you back after this.
