Chapter 6
Aliyah's Pov:
I bit my fingers as hot tears poured down my face.
"Calm down Aliyah.... Worrying won't help you at all" Pearl said as I scratched my head.
"Then what will? I feel so useless... My dad is definitely going to kill me" I cried.
"Calm down girl.... All we have to do is to inform him about this" Pearl said.
"Inform him? How do I find him Pearl? I don't know where we will ever see him" I burst into tears.
"There must be a way out of this so you don't need to worry" Pearl assured me.
"I don't think there is any way out.... Am finished Pearl" I wailed.
"Crying is not good for your child Aliyah please" Pearl said as I flared up.
"What child? I really wish this stupid child will just leave me alone" I cried.
"Stop that! Don't try to say that.... The poor child has nothing to do with what happened" Pearl advised.
"So how do I get to Arthur Rodriguez? How do I locate that guy?" I cried.
"Social media.... ?? How about we find him through social media?" Pearl said sharply.
"I think you are right.... Just search him in the internet" I said as I sat beside Pearl.
Pearl placed the laptop on her bed as she typed his name and search.
I continued sulking bitterly.
Ever since I left the hospital in the morning,,, I have not gotten to the house.
Am sure my dad will be waiting eagerly for me at home.
Oh God!
Please help me find him....
I really need to find Arthur so that I can tell him about this baby....
"Oh my gosh Aliyah... Is this him?" Pearl asked as I quickly rushed to look at the laptop screen.
Tears filled my eyes but as soon as I saw his picture,,, my face brightened.
"Yes... That's him" I snapped as I wiped off my tears.
"So what now? What are you going to do next?" Pearl asked.
"Get his number... I really need to inform about this or should I just abort this child?" I said as Pearl frowned at me.
" Don't say such things Aliyah" She said.
She copied the number and we called his number immediately.
I paced around the room impatiently for him to pick up.
Natasha's Pov:
Arthur and I sat inside the coffee shop with cups of coffee in front of us.
"Natasha I told you earlier that I don't feel like coming here" He groaned.
"Oh please Arthur.... Why don't you want to come here in the first place? Because you want to go ahead and stalk that girl" I rolled my eyes at him.
"Natasha? You might have seen her pictures but the truth is she is not the reason why I don't want to come here" Arthur replied.
"Then what? We are a couple and we should go out at times together" I said.
" I have a basketball practice by 4pm and this is 3:45pm" he said as I rolled my eyes.
"You will surely go for the practice but that's after spending sometime with me" I insisted.
"Alright.... I'll go to the restroom" He said as he got up and headed to the restroom.
I sipped my hot coffee when his cellphone rang aloud.
I quickly took the phone.
The number wasn't saved with any name.
"This must be his basketball team.... I won't let him leave me" I thought as I quickly rejected the call and turned the phone off.
No one is allowed to ruin in our beautiful moment.
I dropped the phone before he came out of the restroom.
I pretended like nothing happened.
Aliyah's Pov:
I burst into tears again as I called the number again and this time it was switched off.
"Oh Pearl... Am so finished" I wailed as I fell on the bare ground.
"Don't say that Aliyah.... Who knows? He might be really busy" She said.
"What do I do? I can't go back to the house without him with me so that my dad won't murder me" I cried.
"We won't loose hope Aliyah.... Stop stressing the baby by crying" Pearl replied.
"What useless baby? I don't care if crying and stressing myself will kill the child.... I just wish the stupid foetus flushes out" I gritted my teeth.
"That wouldn't help you find Arthur will it?" She cut in sharply.
"I don't fvcking care.... I just wish I died" I cried out.
I quickly stood up and walked straight to the door.
"Where are you going to Aliyah,?" Pearl asked anxiously.
"Anywhere Pearl and please don't try to stop me" I snapped as I grabbed the door handle and threw the door open.
I walked out of the room slamming the door with my phone.
I walked along the streets like a lunatic cos I was lost in thought.
Worst still,,,, the weather was changing and it looked like it was going to rain but that's the least I care about.
It was getting really dark and the thunder kept clapping.
My hair was packed in a messy bun and I looked so crazy.
Slowly the rain started.
I trekked as the rain fell on me.... I was dripping wet.
Then I sighted a pharmacy and I felt a light of hope as I walked straight to the pharmacy.
"Good evening sir" I greeted the pharmacist.
"Yes Miss.... How may I help you?" He asked.
"I want you to give me abortion pills" I said with boldness.
"What?" He stared at me.
"You heard me" I repeated again as he nodded and walked away still marvelled by my boldness.
He handed the pills to me and I gave him some money.
I was still wet.
I walked out of the pharmacy with the abortion pills.
I was so determined to abort the child.
I got to a corner and sat on the ground.... The place was deserted such that no one was passing by.
Maybe because of the rain but that's none of my business.
I brought out the can and poured the pills into my hand.
With tears running down my cheeks,,,, I was about to take the pills.
I opened my mouth to put the pills but my phone interrupted........
TBC.....
Do you want her to abort the baby??
