Choose Me Or No Else

2

I got to the venue as soon as I could and walked in immediately I got there.

"I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS IS TRUE! YOU'RE ABOUT TO PROPOSE A LADY AFTER YOU IMPREGNATED ME!" I shouted inside the hall. I hid the feeling of fear and nervousness. I don't even know the man in question. I only saw his picture which my friend gave me and his name. Also a few details about the man who was about to propose to,, his girlfriend at a birthday party.

Dora hired me to intrude into a party, to ruin the party.I think she's just obsessed with this guy. I wear a flaunting blue gown that makes me stand out in the crowd.

The people inside turned to me. I could see the shock on their faces clearly. The appearance of them is horrible. That makes me scared and I feel like passing out. It’s not a thing I can be proud of, but I have to do it. I desperately needed money, so I had to dance to the tune and face the consequences if anything changed. I came from a very poor background and Dora offered me a lot of money to do what I was doing at the moment. The money is enough to start a new life and take care of my family, pay some bills, start a new business and send my siblings back to school.

Eva and her boyfriend looked at me in confusion. The birthday/proposal party was just about to begin when I went inside and shouted. They just stopped dancing and it was time for the guy to propose to his girlfriend as they had planned. I was a student of the theater department and this made everything easier for me. I'm one of the best actresses far back in school. I just have to drop out of school because I don't like going through unnecessary stress and I can't afford the fees anymore. I remain courageous than ever, I'm playing the role as a victim and I have to do it well. I didn't see it as if I was playing the role anymore. I could see myself in the situation and that made things better for me. But I really feel sorry for the guy who is seriously confused about the whole situation. But what can I do about it?

"Who is he?" the angry question of the lady. I loved her elegant white gown with a touch of blue. She looks prettier than my friend Dora.

"I don't know her!" said Trent. When he turned to me, he insisted my face looked very familiar but he didn't really know me and only now did he see me.

"Trent! I can't believe that you just refused me. After all you did to me! I know you're not a faithful type, I know how you flirt around with other ladies out there, but I don't know that your irresponsibility is beyond measure! What about our son?" my greatest pain. Everything is being planned and I think I am enjoying it more. The bouncers ran towards me to throw me out of the hall but I resisted and struggled with them before someone shouted from the rear to let me be.

I looked at them horribly and almost hit one of them with my left leg. "I'm pregnant. And if anything goes wrong I will take legal action against you and I won't forgive you," I threatened them. They were forced to release me, especially when they heard someone shouting . Good! I can still continue with my performance since I have a backup now. I'm feeling unrest at the moment. I think I am starting to regret my actions despite having someone who is supporting me from the audience. My heart is beating so fast and uncontrollably. I'm nervous about what I'm doing. I have to succeed by all means. I can't just come in vain and end up losing the money Dora promised me. I'm doing everything because of the money and that's why I am doing everything I can to make things work for us.

A man stood up from the left side of the hall very close to where Trent and his girlfriend were. I think he's already in his early fifties. He has some resemblance to Trent and I think he should be Trent's father or family member. I'm not sure if he is Eva's father either. That's not what I am here for. I needed to put more attention on the assignment than the appearance. "What's the meaning of this Trent? You got a woman pregnant? Who is she?" The man asked angrily.

"How could you do this to my daughter!" a woman shouted not a few steps from where the other man was standing. She's weeping. I smiled slightly. I think that was Eva's mother's crying. I'm really causing trouble now and I think I am now on track.. Eva slapped Trent hard. Her hands were heavy with tears in her eyes. He could no longer handle the situation. It seems that the floor is open for me and I have to utilize it well. But I'm afraid the same will not happen to me as well, since they say "what goes around comes around". I believe my God will forgive me since He knows I am doing it to earn money for myself and to take care of my family. Trent was obviously confused by the series of questions and the slap he got from his girlfriend. I could see the anger on his face like that of a dog who wants to attack.

"Trent! Tell me what's going on! You can't get her pregnant and want to run from taking the responsibilities. That's not done, you should have settled the situation amicably with her before inviting us to your birthday/ proposal party! You have to blame yourself for everything that happened here. You just don't have a choice, "shouted the man. He looks like Trent brother. He is not too old like others that spoke earlier. He kept shaking his head. I'm sure he is thinking about what Trent has put everyone in the family into.
