Fifty One
"I'm sorry, Gianna. I've been blinded to love by my mother, so I don't know what her true habit is," said Winter.
"No matter what she did that wasn't right for you, she's still your mother. We are extremely grateful and fortunate to have parents at all. What about those people who don't have parents? " I said.
Winter nodded.
"So let me tell your daddy everything," I said.
"Yes, Gianna." I stand.
"I'm leaving first. I'll just come back in the next few days." I say goodbye to Winter.
I went out of Winter's house and I closed the gate. Sheena texted me saying that our father was okay. He said it was just a fever and a lack of food and sleep. I breathed a sigh of relief at what I found out.
I took a taxi and drove to the mansion. When I went inside, I found my aunt holding her baby.
"Eat up, Gianna," she said to me. I nodded in response.
So I went straight into my room and got dressed. I left the room afterward.
When I came out I saw Aunt Bianca brewing milk for her baby. I took the child with me and loaded it.
"You didn't eat, Gianna," she said to me.
"I'm still full Aunt. And then I'll leave later because I'm looking for a job."
My aunt nodded in response.
I handed her the child and re-entered the room to retrieve my sling bag. I took a taxi and drove to Winter's house. I went inside the house and it was super quiet. I saw Pia come out of her room. She smiled when she saw me.
"You're being visited today, Gianna," she said to me.
"I've been here earlier but you're not there because Winter said you were at your boyfriend's house hanging out," I said.
Pia blushed.
"Is that so?"
I nodded in response.
"Where's Winter?"
"I think she's resting in the bedroom."
Pia knocked on Winter's door. And she came out to blast the hair.
"You're with someone there, it's as if a storm has passed through your hair." I joked with her.
Silly."
"I need something from you," I said.
'So what? Why do I seem nervous? "Said, Winter.
"Silly, this isn't what it is. I borrowed money from you because I have something to use." I said.
"Sure, how much?" Winter asked me.
"Five hundred thousand."
"All right." She nod and went back into her room when she came back with a check. And she gave it to me. My eyes widened because he put one million in the amount.
"This is too much, I can't afford to pay this amount," I said.
"Gianna, you should pay that little by little until you've fully paid. I won't force you if you can't pay yet," he said to me.
"Thank you," I said.
"Just when you need anything else just tell me," said Harley.
I nod in response.
I went home to the mansion and I plan to go camping in Saavedra today. I put the clothes inside my backpack and I found out that Aunt Bianca and Uncle Darius were gone now. Maybe they left because the baby wasn’t there either.
I left the mansion and called the taxi driver I knew. He is the only one I want to deliver to me because he already knows the way. So when I came out I saw it.
He opened the door for me to enter.
"Let's stop at the fruit stand first, sir. Can you just buy it for me? By the way, two take out of chicken joy. I'm going somewhere else." I said to the driver. It nodded and took the money from me. I also went out to go to the bank because of that check that Harley gave me.
I brought a lot of money so please don't be bad.
I got in the car immediately after I got out of the bank. The driver also entered and drove away from the city. I feel like I want to eat ripe and raw mangoes dipped in soy sauce and vinegar.
Sheena texted me saying that our father had left the hospital because he had recovered. It was afternoon and it was raining when we arrived at camp Salvador. I got out of the taxi and walked into our house. Steven immediately ran to me.
"Aunt Gianna. Where is the chicken joy I told you about?" he asked me. I laughed.
"Still in the car, go there," I command the child. It ran out of the house. I kissed my mom and dad.
"How are you feeling?" I asked my father.
"I'm okay."
"It's good and you're well."
My mother smiled and I felt happy when I came back to them.
I am now facing my father and mother in the living room of our house.
"I'm back here now because I plan to build a house for you so that you can have a good stay here."
"Gianna, Don't bother. We're used to this life." said my father.
"Don't argue anymore," I said.
So they just smiled.
"But it seems like I see a lot of people with long necks looking at me," I said.
I immediately remembered my neighbors at Aunt Bianca's old house. They can talk too much to me badly. How are they doing right now?
"You have to be patient with them, that's really when neighbors." said my mother.
"They murmur like bees," I replied while smiling.
I left for a moment and went to the kitchen.
"What's your dish?" I asked Sheena.
"Leaf of sweet potato," he replied.
"Is that so, can you eat that?" I will ask.
"Of course. It's delicious because there's vinegar like you make it shine."
I suddenly craved that.
"But I like to eat raw and ripe mangoes dipped in sugar and dried with vinegar," I said. Sheena's face suddenly turned sour.
"What's the taste then? Are you pregnant, sister?" he asked me.
I was suddenly swallowed up by something I realize. I slept in the hospital for five months and then I was also delayed. Maybe I'm pregnant?
I was slapped on the head.
What do I do now? I remember that something happened to Leon and me when he got mad at me.
"I do not know," I said to Sheena.
"I'll join you tomorrow in town. You'll check up. It's normal to get pregnant, you know, we're the right age." said Sheena.
"Who is the father?" Sheena asked.
"fifty-year-old billionaire man." my answer.
"Really? Is he handsome?"
"Of course. But we don't have a relationship, a one-night stand happened and it followed. He was the ex-husband of the one who adopted me then." I said.
Shaira's eyes widened.
"Is that so? That's a problem."
"They're separated but it looks like the woman is still chasing."
"How are you in case you're pregnant? He has a right to know he has a child with you."
My eyes rolled.
"We're not sure yet that I'm pregnant."
I'm here now at Lance's house, the two of us face each other in the living room.
"Are you okay, you don't seem to be on yourself. Did something happen?" he asked me. I didn’t know I would tell him what happened.
I sighed.
"I was shocked because when I woke up Natasha was next to me and we were both naked. I didn't know Lance what happened." I said.
Lance stared at me in amazement.
"Because of what happened Natasha has reason to chase you. Why did you even go home to your house? You're not avoiding."
"I don't know, I thought she wasn't at home," I said.
Lance's head shook.
On the other day,
We woke up early because I planned to take mom to the city this afternoon. And we will first go to Sheena's town today to buy materials to build their new house. I got up because I heard a voice outside the house.
And I found my father with three men outside.
"Gianna, I told them you were going to build a house so they said they would do it and we shouldn't look for anyone else.
"Yes, but Sheena and I will go to town first to buy materials."
My father nodded.
I saw Sheena drinking coffee frowning.
I approached her under the saint's tree.
"What's the matter with you? Your snout is already up in the morning." I told her.
"I'm annoyed with my husband. I want to buy new clothes but he doesn't have extra money," said Sheena chuckling.
I'm laughing
"Don't be so pushy when your husband can't give you anything," I told her.
"Stand there because we're going to town. And then we'll buy nice clothes." I told her.
She smiled at me.
"Where is Steven?"
"With mom, at the market bought a dish."
I nodded and we entered the house together.
Sheena and I were both dressed and we were looking for a motorcycle to ride.
The two of us are already in town and we are just leaving the center.
And I was deaf to what the doctor told me. I was two months pregnant. And I will tell Marcus what happened because this is his child anyway but what if Natasha didn't allow it?
"You're pregnant, Sister," said Sheena.
I nodded in response.
I also bought new clothes from my mom, Sheena, and dad as well as Francis and Steven. I also bought the equipment to build the house. Cement, sand, gravel, So we went home then. And first, we stopped at a mango vendor and I ate.
We went home walking and Shaira's nose was smoking when we saw Francis in the store with the man drinking. Shaira ignored it and just continued walking.
"Don't get married, Sister especially and your man will be poor." Sheena nodded.
"He doesn't drink at all."
"Because I saw him.
Francis followed us and pulled Sheena.
"Release me, because I'm mad at you!" She shouted.
"Love, lower your voice, Gianna is just nearby. I'm looking for a decent job so I can give you what you want but there's nothing." Francis said.
Sheena fell silent and went inside the house. The things I bought have arrived so they started making a house. Sheena is the one who cooked the dish and rice because I just freed that worker from snacks and lunch. Francis has also joined the work.
The materials I bought to build our new house have also arrived. And it was also a month ago so I thought of taking mom to the city.
I just took Shaira and steven because they also wanted to go to the city. I entered the mansion and I heard Aunt Bianca and Natasha arguing.
"You've stopped chasing Marcu, Natasha, aren't you tired?" said my aunt.
"You can't order me, Bianca, because no matter what happens Marcus is mine." sternly said Natasha making my aunt laugh.
"It's also your fault that it happened because you were the first to leave so why did you come back?"
Natasha was silent.
"I have reasons why I left him then."
"She won't listen to your explanations anymore Natasha, just leave him to Gianna because she's the one Marcus loves."
"Can not be!" Natasha stubbornly refused.
"Aunt Bianca. You don't have to fight." I interrupt their conversation.
They both fell silent.
"By the way, you have a visitor, Aunt," I said.
Then my mother came inside.
"Marissa." only my Aunt said in a low voice that I heard. I noticed that my aunt was surprised upon seeing my mother.
"It's me, aren't you happy to see me, My dear sister and cousin." my mother said.
I was stunned by what my mother said. So my mother's cousin is Natasha.
"Why did you seem to see a ghost when you saw me, Bianca? You know you must be at fault for me." My mother laughs like a villain in the movie.
"There is because you hid my daughter from me for a few years and you're just here in the city hiding, so maybe I can deprive her of you because you already have a child. You even made me feel bad in front of Gianna. It's not enough yet. You were our parents' favorite back then, but I didn't feel bad because we were siblings, but you went too far. But we shouldn't talk about things that have been over for a long time. " said mother.
"And you Natasha, I'm grateful to you because you took care of my daughter to save her from the disease but you left her afterward. I thought it was okay for the two of us. It's not my fault why you left Lucio. You left him, that's why he married me. "
I gasped because of what I heard from my mom. So my dad’s ex-girlfriend is Natasha?
"I was Lucios love back then but you just came into the picture!" Natasha shouted.
"By the way, Denver is looking for you, he said you have a lot to tell him about ..."
"Shut up, Marissa!" Natasha's eyes glazed over as she shouted at my mother.
I know my mother knows a lot of secrets but she doesn’t seem to speak. Natasha left as we were left inside the mansion.
"Gianna, I'm sorry." said my aunt.
I smiled.
"It's okay, Aunt, the important thing is we're all happy."
I am happy because Aunt Bianca and mom have forgiven each other. I admitted to my mother that I was pregnant and I told her about Marcus and she understood what had happened.
I was deafened by what Natasha told me in front of our three children. I can’t accept that she is pregnant and I am the father. I was so upset, I wanted to talk to Gianna because Winter had already told me that Gianna was not Natasha's child.
I was stunned.
"How else can I believe you, Natasha, if your personality is full of lies?"
Natasha's eyes widened.
"Don't say you're not responsible for what I'm bringing?" he said to me.
“I’m not saying I’m not responsible for that, but I’ll just support the child though but we can't be together. "I told her.
"Why can't I? I don't want the child to grow up we're not in the same house," said Natasha.
"I'm the guy here, Natasha so I'll decide," I said.
Then I noticed my three children’s faces were as if they didn’t like their mother’s news. So Natasha left with nothing to do with what she wanted to happen.
I brought all my belongings because Aunt Bianca had agreed that I live with my parents. Then I also had to get away so I wouldn't see Natasha and Marcus back together. And I can't dare to let him know my true situation.
Two months ago so I decided to visit Gianna at Darius ’house. I didn’t care that Natasha was pregnant but I was sad because of what I found out.
"Didn't Winter mention anything to you, Marcus? It's been a few months since Gianna left this mansion," said Darius to me.
"Where did she go, Darius?" I asked him.
"Her real parents have already taken her here," said Darius.
"Since when?"
"A month ago."
I sighed because there was only one thing that meant that Gianna and I would never see each other again.
"Where is their place?"
"Bianca doesn't know either, so I'm sorry."
I was swayed by my senses.
"I also have a problem, Darius, now," I said.
"What's that?"
"Natasha is pregnant and I'm the father because once I woke up she was next to the bed. I was drunk at that time." I said.
Darius nodded.
"That's a problem. So avoid looking for her because you already have another member of the family," he said to me.
"I don't love Natasha, Darius!" I said in a hard voice.
"You will be forced to live with her for the sake of your unborn child."
"I can't bear to be with her Darius because I will never feel anything for her."
"You have no choice. Do you think when Gianna finds out that you made Natasha pregnant she will still accept you? You're just wasting your time."
I left Darius' mansion with my brain confused.
We are here now in the shade of the mango tree while I am with Sheena chopping mangoes. My stomach is four months old and it is big in normal pregnant women. My strength is as strong as eating. Winter and Pia knew nothing that I could no longer be in the city. Maybe when I give birth I will visit them. Don't do it now because I don't want a lot of questions. It's good that my father wasn't angry about what happened. He was just too kind. Our house is slowly coming to an end, so our housemates are all gossiping about the sudden ascension of my parents. But I do not care anymore. So far I haven't heard a bad story about myself.
And Steven is already studying in the city so Sheena won't be too irritable.
And Francis had a decent job because I built a vegetable and meat shop in the market. My father and mother were in charge of the boutique I had built.
"Is your stomach heavy, sister?"
"Yes, Sheena." my answer.
"Avoid eating a lot because the baby will grow and it will be difficult for you to give birth." Sheena's advice to me. She stared at me as if she wanted to tell me something.
"Is there dirt on my face, Sheena?"
"Nothing, I just want to thank you for coming into our lives. My heavy burden in life has been removed. I know mom and dad are happy because of the change in our lives." said Sheena passionately.
"Sheena, you don't have to be thankful because we are a family we should work together." my answer.
"And then I'm also thankful that you helped me with my pregnancy," I said.
"It's nothing. It's your first time getting pregnant so it's hard."
She smiled.
I always get drunk for many reasons. I couldn’t contact Gianna and Natasha’s pregnancy. My brain was in turmoil because of what had happened.
I no longer had the right ate of food and slept as if Gianna had carried my spirit when she left.
"If you want to commit suicide just drink poison."
