MY EX WIFE LOVER IS MY BEST FRIEND

Chapter2

Emily’s POV

As the party was still on, Sebastian and his fiancé moved on with the celebration, like nothing happened.

Emily, along with her friend, reached the mansion and Emily started packing her little luggage.

“Rachel , you’ve been my sister for eternity. Through the ups and downs you’ve been with me”

“Yes Emy you are a sister to me and I’m not going to let you drown.” Rachel affirmed to her best friend trying to lift her spirit.

“ please can I stay in your place for some time till I figure out what to do next?” Emily asked Rachel as she agreed to house her.

As Emily and Rachel finished loading her luggages into the Rachel car trunk , Emily suddenly excused herself and ran up to the mansion ,as she climbed up the stairs to the room that had once been her safe place, each step she took echoed through the empty halls.

Every step felt heavier than the first, each accompanied with sob tearing down her chest like her very soul was unraveling . As she reached the door, her entire body was shaking, her breaths rugged and uneven.

Just a few minutes of leaving the room .it greeted her with a cruel familiarity- the interiors to the bed and artistic decorations where they once laughed and shared dreams and gossiped now seemed so cold , bitter and suffocating.

She stood lost and frozen for some moments, with her gaze flickering over the remnants of the life that will never exist again. Her heart was filled with deepened , unrelenting and sharp pain as she sank on the edge of the sofa .

Her hands trembled and her fingers shook as she reached unto her writing journal on the nightstand, the heaviness of her grief spilling on the columns and pages of the journal. Each word she wrote seemed like a wound reopened, tears she couldn’t silence: “You’ll look for me Sebastian and you won’t FIND ME. You’ll feel My PAINS.”

She placed the paper down on the bed carefully as she stared at the note with her tears smudging the ink , making sure it sits right where his hands would fall.

Without a backward glance , with her legs unsteady and the air still,she walked away, leaving behind an endless void that would be a constant echo as deep as it resounded in hers.

“ Please drive Rachel , drive away from this shithole”. Emily urged her best friend to drive out from the Laurent’s estate .

As they arrived in Rachel’s house , she helped bring down her luggage and took it inside the cozy , girly and comfy rooms.

As they settled the luggage they went straight to get themselves refreshed as their minds went wild back to the event of the night.

As the water from the showers trickled down her face she couldn’t stop thinking of Sebastian’s words when he called her a barren woman in the midst of the guests .

“I will never let you find out about this baby , you will never know what it means to be a father, which is one thing you cherish the most” Emily swore as she pats her tummy caressing each angle .

Rachel can clearly see the hurt she’s passing through and decided to talk to her. “Emy I hate to see you hurt this much, but also remember one thing you’re carrying a part of him , you're a fighter and I want you to pick yourself up for the sake of this beautiful Angel you’re carrying. Live your life for the sake of the baby. Don’t let today be the judge of your future. You didn’t reach this level because you married a billionaire, no you are a good-certified cosmetologist, and you will always win my girl.”

“You’re right I have to be strong for my baby. Thank you a million times for being my friend. "I have to rest my head now, girl, and you have to do so too , we’ve all had a rough night,” Emily said as she bid her bestie good night and fell into sleep immediately as the pregnancy hormones kicked in.

As the sleep progressed soundly, and the memories of the night passed into the quiet of the night. The hours slipped by and deepened into morning; her dreams suddenly turned from peace to restlessness .

Fragments and the horrors of the previous night enveloped her subconscious, waving vivid dreams that stirred her up from her peaceful slumber with the early morning breeze filling the atmosphere, and she started sobbing softly and her cries muffled by the puffy pillows and the dreams became worse and jolted her awake.

Disorganized by what’s going on , Emily reached for a bottle of water from the bed stand mini fridge , her parched throat felt relieved. As she set down the bottle of water , she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her stomach. Emily winced painfully and clutched her stomach, and headed to the bathroom, each step she took came with a sharper pain , her body weighed down by the pain.

As Emily reached the bathroom and forced her body to urinate , she felt a little ease and stood up to her worst nightmare.

BLEEDING

“ oh my goodness what’s happening why am I bleeding? No no no; this can’t happen. "My poor baby, I can’t bear it if anything happens to this child too , help me Lord.” Emily cried and it echoed through the quiet apartment, scared and desperate, as hot tears trickled down her face.

She stared in disbelief as blood streamed down her thighs, staining her pajamas and filled with paralyzing thoughts: Am I losing my baby? This child was her last hope, the only light she’d clung to after her heartbreak.

Through the haze of unending pain she called out to her friend.

“Rachel!” She screamed loudly, her voice wavering.

In the next room , Rachel sprang awake alarmed by the urgency in Emily’s voice. She jumped out of her bed, her heart beating as she ran with the speed of the light into Emily’s room .

“What’s wrong? Emily what’s -” Her words wavered as she took in the horrific scene before her , her face drained of color.

“Oh my God,” Rachel voiced , frozen for a moment before jolting into action. “Emily , we need to get you to the hospital immediately”. Let me grab a dress for you and we head out. You have to be calm and breathe it in out everything will be alright.

Rachel helped Emily gently into her car and drove to the hospital, as she drove to the hospital, she made a call across to Emily’s doctor to inform him of the urgent visit.

Immediately when they arrived, the doctor was already waiting as he directed the emergency unit to provide a stroller immediately and Emily was helped out of the car into the emergency unit. As Rachel broke down in tears, kneeling on the ground praying for a miracle to happen, they took Emily to the ER .
