Chapter 33

Ciara’s POV

“Ciara, you’re pregnant!” mom announced again and that’s when I realized that I wasn’t dreaming.

I’m carrying Brian’s baby.

But what’s the essence of being happy when the person who’s supposed to share in this happiness is not here with me but with another woman.

“Are you okay, Ciara?” The doctor asked me. She must have noticed how worried I looked.

“Aren’t you happy?” mom asked and I raised my head to meet her gaze. She could see the tears glistening in my eyes.

“Hey, it’s okay. This is good news, and you’re not going to ruin it by being such a cry baby,” mom said, using her face towel to wipe the tears that were already forming in the corner of my eyes.

I immediately stood up from my chair and walked out of the office. I was hastily towards the exit when I heard mom yelling my name from behind.

I turned to see her gaining on me so I quickened my steps. I pushed the door to leave the building when mom grabbed my hands.
