Rebecca had ran downstairs hurriedly and out the gate but he was gone.
He was out of her life, just like that!
All her hard work, to catch his attention, she had to kiss her gross ex to make him laugh the first time and make friends with his bitchy girlfriend-of-then to catch his interest. She had to spend all her savings to look like someone of his league, but now he was gone.
She screamed, "James! James!" She fell on the floor crying and Frank rushed up to her.
"Miss... Wetin dey happen?" He asked, trying to get a hold of her arm but she slapped him away.
"Don't touch me!" She yelled, got up and went back inside.
She saw Rotimi attending to Sandra. The Sandra James' eyes had been on since she first came here. Yes, she had seen the way he looked at her, with care and hunger and the way he blushed whenever she walked towards them or greeted him even after she had told him Sandra was pregnant.
She failed to understand how a man would still have his eyes on a pregnant woman who was carrying a child that wasn't his!
She walked towards them in the kitchen and saw a pot sitting on the kitchen table, full of pepper and she smirked.
She thought she could destroy their relationship and get away with it? She was so wrong!
Rebecca walked past them, picked up the pot and ran towards Sandra.
"Miss! Miss! Miss!" Rotimi, who had ran to the living room yelled while Sandra hurriedly got up from the chair she was sitting on to run but Rebecca had dumped the pepper on her body before she could.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!!!" Sandra screamed.
"Ye! Miss!" Rotimi yelled and ran to Sandra while Rebecca just smirked.
"How dare you?! How dare you think you can just march over here and steal my man?! This is just the start." Rebecca said and walked past Sandra's screaming figure.
Fortunately for Sandra, Uche walked into the house at that moment and gasped, "what's happening here?!"
"Madam. Miss-miss-" Rotimi remembered the glare Rebecca had passed her before leaving and she completed, "I mistakenly threw the pot of pepper on her. It was a mistake madam, but she won't stop shouting. She-she-"
Uche pushed her off, "call Frank let's take this girl to the hospital! Fool!"
...
It was a week after that incident and Sandra's left arm was bandaged while she had to put on glasses for the time being that some of the pepper had entered her eyes.
A miracle though that she hadn't lost the baby. She was only three months and some days pregnant but her bump was already starting to develop. Her once flat stomach was growing bigger and she was adding weight.
Funny thing was that she was expecting morning sickness but nothing happened, she only spit most of the time but nothing else.
She was currently going to the clinic for an ultrasound.
"Lie down and relax." The doctor instructed her and she went along with it, "the gel let's the ultrasound waves go in so we can see the clear picture of the baby..." She said and Sandra nodded, "this is a probe, I'm going to run it over your belly." Sandra flinched when the cold gel touched her skin.
"Relax..." The lady said and she laid back down.
After doing all the things that needed to be done, the lady tapped her shoulder, "those are the twins." She said.
"What?!" Sandra yelled, almost getting off where she laid.
"The twins," the lady said and turned to smile at the two bean-like fetus, "they are so adorable."
