THE UNEXPECTED NEWS

ZARYA’S POV

My hands were shaking as I stood up. Hali stood at the door of the bathroom, looking down at me with his barely opened mouth.

“Positive.” The tears in my eyes started to crawl on my cheek. “I’m pregnant.”

Hali was speechless, her eyes could not even blink. Khal was there, too, moving his head left and right, a gesture of ‘no.’

I would not expect the thing that Hali did. He walked towards me, down his knee, and hugged me so tight that even my breath was hard to do. He buried his face in my neck. No words. Nothing. Except for embracing that would make me feel that he actually saying something by his action.

“What’s your plan?” I whispered. He did not even talk, which made my tears stream to my face. “Tell me your plan.”

“I have no plan.” He said in a low voice.

“Are you going to eliminate the baby?” There was something in me that I wanted to know what would he do, I liked to hear it out, but sadly, he said nothing.

I pushed him harder, gritted my teeth, and glared at him with the fire in my eyes. I raised the pregncy kit test and showed him the one line. “You are an asshole and you will always be. I don’t want to get pregnant with the man who can’t stand the responsibility.” I gritted my teeth and showed him how mad I was. “I am not pregnant and if ever you are the last man in this world, I will never let your seed plant in me. Rest assured that.”

I rolled my eyes and passed him by. He was shocked when I said those words right in front of his face. I gave Khal a small smile as if nothing happened.

“Is fooling me makes you happy!”

My feet were stuck on the floor. He followed me until I reached the living room. “Yes! Like how you fool me!”

The presence of Khal had not emphasized when we started to shout at each other. Khal was just having a sigh while following us, watching us, listening to us.

“You think everything I did is a fool?” Hali stood straightly, his hands were closed, crumpled in madness.

“Yes! Come on, don’t act clean! Show to Khal what are you and who are you to a woman like me!” I was so livid. Last night, we were happy as if we were a real couple, but now, we were like an enemy who would vomit on each other.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

“That’s how you look at me!”

“Yes! You are a king and yet a trash!”

“I look at you like a whore who can easily get by man!”

“Asshole!”

“Poor Little Thing!”

“Fuck you!” A showed him my middle finger.

“Fuck you even more!”

“Hey, Guys!” Khal stood between us. “It’s nonsense. What’s really the problem?” Khal looked at me and glued his eyes to Hali. “It’s clear that Zarya is just kidding you and yet you’re scared to know that what she said is not true. You can’t accept the truth.” Khal tapped his shoulder. “Buddy, you’re not a father yet. Accept it.”

For the first time, Hali sealed his mouth, only his jaw told me that Khal’s statement hit what really made him mad.

I was startled, staring at him. He wanted me to carry his child?

“What’s the point of shouting at her? Her heart will just move away from you… and be careful, she might not see her worth. The reason why you will lose her.” Khal spelled out in low voice.

My eyes were forming tears as I gazed at Hali. He was looking down. I had no idea what he really felt about. I did not ask. He did not tell. It seemed like Khal knew him more than I did.

Hali gazed at me, with no emotion at all. “You’re completely clueless.” He turned his back, went to the room, put on his shirt, and left me hanging. The blag of a door closed could be heard.

Khal stared at me. “I went here to bring those things.” He pointed at the paper bag. “I have no idea how to fix this mess because the two of you can only do that.” He held my shoulder. I was startled when he kissed my forehead, a gesture of respect. “Try to hear his heart, you’ll know what he feels for you.” He gave me a small smile before he walked towards the door. He was about to rotate the doorknob when I spoke.

“I’m afraid to hear his heartbeats and found it’s not beating for me.”

He looked back at me. There was a doubt if he would smirk or showed no emotion. “He’s right… you’re completely clueless.”

Am I?

I stayed the whole day in my apartment. I was waiting for Hali to come back, but it was almost night now and he did not come. I stood up. Moving back and forth. I took a nap on the couch and when I woke up, no shadow of Hali. It felt like saying sorry to him was a must, even though he did not say it to me, not even once. I had no idea how long I waited, I was just looking at the door, waiting for someone to know and when it sound. I ran towards it and opened it.

“I’m sorr一” Halt talking when I viewed that it was not Hali, it was Colden. “Hey.”

“You need to see this.” He walked toward my couch, grabbed the remote, and opened the TV screen.

“We found him at the river, at first… we saw the head and then the hand and the rest. It was like… he was bitten by a wild animal.” The interviewee said. The next scene was in the Jenkins Enterprise, there were so many people scattering, squabbling, some were injured.

My eyes were full of shock. The news content was Caspian Gatlin and Bram Jenkins. Bram was holding his hand, the blood was running to it, as he was wincing. “It’s a wolf. I was just curious how the wolf come to my office in the middle of the night?”

“Then, what did you do Mr. Jenkins?”

“Good thing, I have a gun. I shoot him. I just didn’t know where it hit.”

My mouth left opened. I stood up immediately. “Hali. we need to find Hali!”
