Cruel Destiny
Chapter 27
Natasha POV (7 months pregnant)
If I'd been thinking that my life before this was bad, now, it's horrible.
Sometimes I wanted to run away from my problems instead of facing them.
But sadly I can't do that. I have to face my problems like a big girl.
Two weeks ago, I got the notice from the court that I would have to compensate Liam for defaming him.
My hands started to shiver when I had looked at the amount. It was too much for me.
The amount they have been asking was three fourth of my savings. I had been saving it for Scarlett.
I didn't have any choice other than compensating for the punishment.
If I didn't have paid it, they would have locked me into prison and I don't want that.
Now I have only some savings left which are inadequate to survive and on top of that, I have been working only in a diner.
I have to somehow adjust with these savings and have to find a second job or else I will be on the road after the delivery.
Kelly had called me every day but like a coward, I have been avoiding her calls.
I don't want to impose my problems on her anymore. I am now going to be a mother.
It's high time for me to woman up and face my problems without creating any chaos.
To be honest, I don't want to worry kelly. She has been a constant support for me and I love her for that.
I just can't be selfish and snatch her happiness. I don't want to give her any tension.
I have been dealing with constant nightmares. They are horrible and kept me awake all night.
Scott didn't contact me after that day and I am grateful for that.
I don't want him to jeopardize his happiness for someone like me.
But yeah I have been getting calls from Sophia (Scott's mother). She was missing me and I missed her too.
She had given me the love of a mother which I had been craving. She had shown me that I could be loved too.
But too bad I can't see her again as I had told her that I am leaving this city.
She was upset and had told me to consider it again but I told her that I am going to live with Kelly.
Now they are my past and I have to focus on my present and my future.
"Ughh, just because I am pregnant that doesn't mean you would treat me like a glass. I can carry this bag."
I heard someone's voice in front of me. I raised my gaze toward the source of the voice.
It was a woman who was probably in her mid-20s. She was pregnant and has a cute belly.
She might be in her 4 months. A man was standing beside her and from what I could see, he was her husband or boyfriend.
The man chuckled "I know love. Now move on. You are standing for too long. It's your time to take rest."
