Just as he started painting a happy family picture with Ira and his cute little princess or prince. Viv"s hopes were crushed. Facing Ira"s tablet a pained look on his face was apparent."Do you want to abort my child?" Viv"s cold and angry stare could suck up her soul instantly. The only other time she experienced his anger was during their discussion which led to divorce.
Ira panicked "No...No..I"
"How do you explain this? "Viv showed her tablet which read:
- History online searches -
How to terminate a 4-week pregnancy.
Abortion clinic nearby.
Illegal abortion clinics.
Intrauterine devices for contraception.
"No... No.. Viv listen to me, It is just a misunderstanding. You know with the sudden news, I got scared. I searched randomly with no meaning." Panic-stricken, she explained somehow. She totally forgot that past her slept while searching these online. Keeping the tablet open!
Seemed to calm down by her sincere gaze and earnest reply, Viv asked "No meaning?"
Ira defended "Absolutely none"
Viv took her hand, his expression quite improved "You promise to take care of our baby"
Ira nodded immediately "I Promise."
Viv apparently didn"t pry into it further. Ignoring the matter, blaming it for anxiety that comes with pregnancy. He calmly said "Ira I know you are worried as to how you would cope up your child and career together. Remember I will always be there with you. We will take baby steps to our future. Don"t worry, let"s just go with the flow. You are a strong woman. I know you would be a good mom."
Her dad was a successful businessman. A self-made man. She admired him the most and wanted to continue his legacy. Ira had a dream to expand their company worldwide.
During her last lifetime, Ira never wanted to have a child. This was just an accident supposedly she forgot taking a dose of contraceptives.
Being a career oriented or rather a selfish woman first thing she did when she knew about her pregnancy was: having an abortion!
It was done at an illegal clinic since she can"t let her husband know about it. It wasn"t she was scared of him rather she thought he would telltale her dad, thereby ending her dreams. She was still fighting for the position of CEO of the Company.
Following which after half a month later she inserted an IUD, which could stay for 5 Years at the least...
Who would have thought that this contraception failed as well!
She was pregnant again when she was 30. This time she was preparing herself to accept her child with grat.i.tude. However, there existed no fate between her and the child anymore.
It was an ectopic pregnancy, the child wasn"t in the uterus, but rather stuck in the tube.
She still remembers that night was the beginning of her ruin.
Coming straight from the office, she locked herself in the Washroom when she has bleeding and stomach cramps "Ahhh__"A bolt of sharp pain struck in her abdomen.
Hearing her cry Viv rushed breaking the door. Ira was wailing on the floor of the washroom. A stream of blood running from her legs.
They rushed to the hospital.
