"Really? Tell me this is not a dream"I asked not believing what the doctor just told.

"Yes Mrs Qureshi, you are not dreaming, you are very pregnant. Your next appointment will be in a week, just to make sure everything is normal. From the info we have here, you are two months pregnant. And in two months, we will discover the sex of the baby" answered my doctor

I can not believe this, I can not believe there is a little guy growing inside of my tummy. Oh lord thank you so much for blessing me with a child, I can't wait to tell Swa and Malik. Swa is going to be so excited. Oh my God how am I going to tell Malik? Should I surprise him? No should I call him here? I don't know what to do. No let me call him. So I take my phone and call him twice, without a response. Fine I will just surprise him once he gets home, I hope he will be as excited as I am right now.

"Thank you so much doctor" I told her giving her a hug, she just laughed "You all have a good night and I'll see you in a week" I told everyone before going outside and getting in the car.

Today I felt like driving, so I put the key in and soon started heading back home. I wonder if Malik called me back, I can't stop smiling, I am so happy. Taking my phone, I see a notification telling me I received a message, I opened it quickly thinking that it was from Malik, only to see that it was a message from an unknown number, and it says

-Want to know what your dear hubby is up to behind your back? See for yourself and three other pictures appeared below clicking on it, I see what I wished I could unsee

3 pictures, all of them were of Malik with a half naked brunette, on what looks like a bed, making out. What the hell? And he was wearing the shirt I picked out for him today

I couldn't help the tears from falling, Malik did not just cheat on me, did he? Maybe it was someone else on the picture, but who am I kidding?

I tried to get rid of my tears, just when I suddenly saw a car right in front of me, I tried to turn left, only it was too late, the other person was safe,

But I was not so lucky because I went straight ahead into a tree. My vision slowly became blurry, the only thought in my head was my baby, before everything else turned completely black around me.

"There is someone on the line sir, a certain Isabella Petrova" After hearing that name, I froze on my tracks. It's been forever since the last time I saw her, or heard her name

I cleared my throat, before asking "Are you sure that is the name?"

"Yes sir, and she said you would want to hear what she has to say" responded my new secretary facing me.

"Is everything okay sir, you sure look pale. Do you want me to tell her to call back later?"

"It's okay Alicia, I got it thank you. You can go back to your work" I told her, slowly picking the phone

"Isabella" I breathed on the phone

"Oh Darling, why so formal? Why don't you call me Bella, like you usually do, or mon amour like you preferred ?"

"What do you want from me?" I asked gripping the phone tightly.

"Oh love , I am back in town and I heard a lot of things happened behind my back. Why don't you come and visit me? I am staying at our favorite hotel la fleur, hum, I remember all the nights and days we spent here. We can catch up, what do you say?" She said sweetly

"Over my dead body. I am really busy and would hang up if you don't have anything important to say. At the same time, I am heading home right after this, to see MY wife" I answered make an emphasis on the wife

She laughed "Oh you mean that poor excuse of a woman? Please stop lying to yourself"

"Well she is the woman you will never be, She is Perfection. While it was nice talking to you, I will have to hang up. See you never" I said before hanging up the phone, throwing my glass of water on the wall

Loosening my tie or punching the wall did not do anything to ease my new found anger. Was it talking to her after all this time? Or was it her insulting Yasmin? The one and innocent Yasmin? I don't know but whatever it was, it made me feel like ruining things. My cell phone is ringing, and the number is unknown, I ignore it and just take my key car. I don't care if it is not safe to drive at this time, but I can't stay in my office anymore, I was suffocating and I needed air, a lot of it.

Should I go to my heaven place? Or just go back home to Green since my day is already ruined? No I don't want her to see me like this, I am going to calm down first, and then I will go see her. My phone keeps ringing in my pocket, I take it out to see again the same number, calling over and over again, I pick it up just for the sake of not turning off my phone

"What?" I answered

"Malik, Thank God, it's you, please please help me" said a panicked Isabella before I heard something break and her loud scream.

"Hello? Hello? Bella? Can you hear me? Hello?" It was all quiet, too quiet on the other side. What the hell just happened?

I turned around, being only a few minutes away from the hotel. I am actually surprised I did not get into any accidents by the way I was speeding. The next thing I know, I was at the lobby of the hotel. The receptionist just smiled at me

"Listen, I don't have time, call 911, I think something is wrong with the woman at the penthouse. Now!" I yelled before calling the elevator and going straight inside, pressing on the penthouse button. Come on, this thing is taking forever and the seconds feel like hours.

The elevator finally opened up and I barge in the room right after. Looking around me, everything seems normal, what the hell? I run in the bathroom, and open it to find something I was not expecting at all. An Isabella that did not change one bit after these years, in a red two piece bikini, looking all but hurt

"What the hell Bella?" I yelled looking at her shamelessly, before reminding myself to look away

"You miss me Darling?" She asked sweetly coming near me.

"Don't you dare come near me you little excuse of human" I told her going backward as she was stepping forward, only I did not know that was exactly what she wanted, to trap me with the bed behind me, and I fell right in the middle of it and she was too quick to jump on top of me to put her lips on mine. I just froze. What the hell? Did I just get jump by a woman? I was so confused until I felt a bite on my neck, that's when my brain started working again and I took her by the waist and turned her around so now I was on top of her

I looked at her straight in the eyes before telling her "Do not ever do this you hear me? I am a married man for God's sake and I love my wife you hear me? Why can't you just let me be happy? Why?"

"Malik you really want to know why? Because you are mine, don't you get it, she does not deserve you, Can't you see that we are perfect for each other? Even are bodies are telling the same story," at the mention of body I quickly took in our position before jumping as far away as possible

"Well that is for me to decide Bella. What we had was nice, hell it was beautiful until you decided to ruin it, you know for a year I hated myself, I even hated you but now? Now I only pity you. I can't believe I once fell for you, calling me out here making it sound like you were dying? That is low, even coming from you"

"Malik I gave you a choice, you refused, it was the only way to make you come here. Can't you see that I love you?"

"Love? Please you can't love anyone but yourself, or money for that matter, you made it clear when you slept with my Dad. MY Dad, how am I supposed to forgive that? At that time I couldn't but now? Now I can care less. I found the love of my life. So Isabella, do whatever you want with your life. I wish you happiness. I am off to see my wife. See you around" I told her before turning around to get out.

"How many times do I have to say I was sorry Malik? I made a mistake, come on everyone makes them"

"Sorry? You call that just a mistake? And everyone makes them? No, not everyone cheat on their fiancé with his Dad. You know I loved you, and that broke me, it took me a very long time to overcome it, and now that I am once again me, you come and try to ruin it. Why don't you just understand that between us too, it can never be again? It's too late Bella. There is no us and will never be"

"Fine Malik, do what you want, but know this, if I can't have you, no one else will, I promise you" she said before going back in her room. I get out of the penthouse and take the elevator once more, when I was going out I saw the same secretary with two police men

"It was a false alarm, the lady is doing great" I told them before going inside my car. Can the day get any worse? No because it was now dark outside I thought as I was heading home, only receiving another phone call. And two missed calls from Yasmin. She calls me back and I pick the phone

"Green, I am on my way home"

"Is this Yasmin's husband?" Asked a guy on the other line

"Yes, who am I talking to?"

"This call is from the London Hospital, your wife has been in an accident and was just admitted to the emergency room, we don't have any more information. We are sorry..."

I couldn't hear the rest too shocked to say anything. What the hell just happened?
