JEALOUSY
“Ma’am your breakfast” she said trying to keep a calm composure.
“Get her medicines and inform Samantha to make her soup” ordered Sebastian.
“Ma’am, is everything alright?” She asked pretending to care, but inwardly, she just wished for her to die.
“Am fine, it’s just the usual morning sickness”
“I’ll go get your medicine” said Monique, forcing herself to leave the room. She’s so furious right now, she just couldn’t understand why they were holding hands, their little gesture really irked her.
“She’ll be back with the medicine, have your breakfast first”uttered Sebastian going back to his chair.
” I wouldn’t be stressed out if you’d just listen to me” complained Adia bitterly as Sebastian stared blankly at her.
” Aren’t you ever tired of talking?”
” Do you know how relentless I am, I must get what I want” retorted Adia, right now, there was little or no strength with her, but she needed something from him, so she must get it.
” After you have breakfast, we’ll talk” Sebastian finally obliged as Adia’s face lit up in a smile.
” Really!!” She exclaimed happily.
” Yes, now eat”NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.
” With pleasure” responded Adia happily, seems like he really cares about his baby, seeing he didn’t hesitate to agree to talk to her, the moment she showed signs of morning sickness, so he doesn’t care about her but the baby, sadly she didn’t give a damn, though it hurts somewhere.
Speaking of somewhere, Adia couldn’t fathom how she felt, when she held his hands, he felt so warm and gentle, but someone gentle and Sebastian, didn’t seem like what would go together.
Adia also wondered, what cologne he used, he smelt so nice, pushing her thoughts aside, she shoved little pieces of bread into her mouth, as she has little or no appetite.
Two minutes later, Monique came in with her drugs which she took, before getting ready to speak to Sebastian.
“Can I begin?” Adia asked, trying to sound friendly, so he wouldn’t change his mind.
Sebastian spoke without looking up, but it didn’t bother her, she’s already long used to his nonchalant behaviors.
“Spill” Short and concise, this man clearly didn’t want to speak with her, and she didn’t want to be here either, she’s only here because she needs his help.
She’s now getting used to his indifference, do it doesn’t bother her much,
“I’d like to work”
Sebastian finally looked up at her, but with a hard glare.
“You’re my wife, you don’t need to work”
Adia was startled, her requests were denied, but she’s not easily gonna sit back.
” And who made that rule, don’t you think I need to have a say also in this contract marriage, like you stated earlier, what kind of rule is that?” Adia scoffed in unbelief.
” My rule, and it’s meant to stay that way” He answered. Adia couldn’t believe it, this is not the only thing she’s asking of him, and he’s already rejected her first request.
Adia was completely dumbstruck, she’s not his wife, because she’s completely invisible to him.
“We don’t act like married couples, and the fact am going to be confined, was never stated in the contract”
“But the contract states you have to follow my rules”
Adia found it so difficult to remain calm, she didn’t have any income whatsoever, why is he being so mean,
“Are you trying to kill me, your rules are killing me, I’m tired, ” Adia yelled angrily, not able to contain her peaceful demeanor any longer.
“You just treat me like some trash, as if I am just a tool carrying your child, treat me respect for Christ sake, and stop being so heartless” Adia spat as Sebastian brows furrowed, we he thought on how to handle this issue, she’s literally a pain in the neck.
She talks too much. When they first met, she had this calm aura, but now she seems to be getting bolder every second.
“Adia it’s for your own good”
“No it’s not, if you don’t answer me, I swear I’ll do things my own way, I won’t eat, in fact I’ll stick to junk foods, I won’t take my medicines, since the only thing you care about is the baby, I can as well hurt it, besides I’ll leave after I deliver” Adia said regretting her words, she’ll never hurt her child, she already loved the baby so much as of now, but she has no choice but to do this.
“Mind your words,” Sebastian warned as he frowned.
“Mind your ways” Adia retorted as Sebastian stared blankly at her, this woman dared to exchange words with him, she had no fear whatsoever.
“I repeat, mind your words” Sebastian despised what Adia just said, that’s why he hates humans so much.
Anger was visible in his eyes and expression, as his icy glare stabbed Adia in the chest, like a sharp knife.
“Can’t you just take the baby out of me, so I can leave this place forever” Adia said, but immediately regretted her words, as the pen he was holding snapped into two, making her shudder.
He looked really strong and he also has a bad temper, she didn’t want him to start hitting her.
She realized her words weren’t helping at all, but only angered him the more.
“Ok am sorry, but please, let me work, Sebastian please” Adia begged almost on her knees.
Sebastian looked at her, holding her gaze for a long time, before saying
“I’ll think about it”
“Really” Adia squealed happily, but he ignored her, but she didn’t care.
“Thanks, but I kind of have another favor to ask,” Adia began silently.
“Speak” he responded, wanting to get rid of her as soon as possible, he’s already tired of her endless blabbing.
” I want to go shopping today” she requested, hoping he will reply positively to her.
” No” came his Short reply, but Adia will never give up, she’ll keep asking.
“Please I need a few things”
“You can write a list for the maids, they’ll get you whatever you want” He said typing on his laptop noisily.
“At least if you can’t be a romantic husband, just act like one tomorrow and get me a gift” she blurted out as Sebastian stopped typing, wondering what she meant.
“Meaning?”
“Tomorrow’s my birthday” Adia said happily as Sebastian stilled.
