Chapter 19：CHAPTER 19: NEW ME

SHANA

After I vomited many times that afternoon, I decided to make an appointment the next day. I thought it was just a simple stomach problem but it was not that simple. I was pregnant for two months that I did not mind at all since I do not have any relationship with men and I was irregular menstruation cycle.

I missed taking pills most of the time but last menstruation I had I completed my pills and I was fertile when it happened.

I did not have regrets knowing my situation but stick with what it gave me, a life inside my belly. I know this was going to be a big issue inside the company but I will zip my mouth if things will go wrong.

Months passed by and my belly is getting noticeable. Eyes were looking at my tummy and me but no one opened their mouth in front of me.

Well, not all of them know me personally just my face so I was safe from gossips. My close colleagues were asking about the tummy and I just smiled and admitted that I am pregnant. They did not ask more questions just congratulate me. They know I am very private person since I came here.

It was good thing that you will distance your personal life inside the company so no one would be aware about your life.

I told George about it and she kept my secret-secret. Not even one of my families knew about my situation. I know I cannot keep this from them but I am not ready to say for now.

Zari called after two months of hiding from me. She told me everything that had happened to her and her love life. I am happy for her.

I continued living my life as what is it. I go to work early back to what I used to be. Colton was not in the city and heard that he will be gone for months for some businesses to attend. Sometimes, I saw him far in the company during those months but not stayed longer and need to travel again.

He did not see me with the new me I could not face him for now with the baby inside my womb. I do not know how to tell him as me acting as my sister Zari all the time.

He might not believe me if I tell him about it. I do not stress myself about it for now and focus what's in front of me.

However, I miss him for those months because it was somewhat weird knowing I begun falling for him. I know, I know I should not have but after not seeing him and saw him from a far, I admitted I miss his kiss.

Four months already and it was showing my baby bump. I do not know if it was this big for four months but it seems like I am 5 or 6 months already. I still want to make it surprise about the gender, I decide on the eight months I will do ultrasound.

I was early in my office as usual; I stood beside the mini ref getting my bottle water when I heard a knock from the outside. 

It did not wait for my permission when the door opened. I was shock to see who it was. My heart was beating so fast and I wanted to hug him tight for the past months I missed him.

Looking at him, he was staring at me from head to toe then landed on my tummy longer. My heart began trembling as I see him talking to me.

I do not know if I made mistook about the impression of his face asking if I was married. There was sadness in his eyes.

We talked a while longer before he left my office and I was happy then my baby kicked. I know my baby was happy too, seeing his/her father.

I smiled and rubbed my tummy gently before I start my work.
