My One And Only

“Why do I need these?”

She inquired. Those were the morning after pills. He eyed her with astonishment. Was she seriously asking him why she needed those pills?

“Are you seriously asking me that question??”

He mockingly asked, could not be able to believe her level of naivety.

“Yes, I m, Kian.”

Tinsley answered. She did not see why she needed those pills. Did he not want kids??

“Well, in simple words then, Tinsley I do not want you to get pregnant, that is why.”

He replied with a straight face and that only made her more shocked. How could he say something like that so easily??

“Why?? What is so wrong with pregnancy?? We are married.”

Tinsley pressed not seeing why getting pregnant was invalid. It was not like they were not married and matured enough to have babies.

“Marriage does not change a thing. I do not want kids so will you just take the pills and not argue with me right now?? Because I m really running late for the very first time in my life.”

Kian yelled the last part making both of them silent the next instant. He was breathing high at the end and Tinsley looked at him stunned.

What just happened?? That was all she could think about.

She did not know that he disliked the idea of having children. But if he did then why ask her hand in marriage??

Surely it was a talk that they should have had before the wedding but the situation and time did not allow them to do so.

What was the point of marriage then?? Because she obviously was looking forward to having kids… a lot of at that for she had spent her life all alone and in forlorn with no siblings to play with or share things with.

She definitely did not want that to be the future of her children so she always had had it in her mind to have lots of babies when she married.

But then looking at the man, standing before her… her husband who just declared of not wanting to have children at all… what was she supposed to do then with the newfound information??

“Then why marry me??”

It was a whisper. She was barely audible but he did hear her.

“Would you then prefer being with Josh??”

Was his reply in a very contradictory question.

He could see tears resting on the edge of her eyes and it was at that moment, he realized, maybe he did go far with this whole scenario.

He was just angry and frustrated right after that call. For the first time in his life, he did not know what to do and felt inadequate, out of plan.

Somewhere down the line, it felt like he had imposed himself in a situation like this where everything had been disrupted… everything that he had built and worked for was going to be snatched away from him.

So maybe he did end up directing his frustration and outrage to the wrong person but his mind was far too caught to decide what was wrong and right at that moment.

“Just take the pills, Tinsley.”

He said before storming out of the room leaving her all deserted to fend on what did just occur?

She clutched the duvet closer to her chest as the impending tears made their way out of her red eyes.

Why did he react like that?? Did she do something wrong??

They were happy… happier she could ever think she was. He looked so relax and satiated too.

Then how in a blip, everything changed??

Gone was the love, the adoration, the happiness, satisfaction. He eyed her as of she was a decision he regretted.

And that broke her heart in a second. Was he really regretting it all?? In just one night together??

Just when she was thinking that maybe they could work this marriage out, they were back on to nowhere… lost and dismantled.

She let the tears fall freely from her eyes as she wept for the love of her husband that was so enchanting last night.

It was their first day as man and wife but look how it turned out to be. She was saddened and distressed.

After everything he did and protected her from the arms of her enemies, he ended up threatening to offer her back to them.

It was a big blow. It made her look that it was why he married her… not for love which was far from it… not even for the fondness of her.

Then how her confession of love to him was left empty with no returning of the endearment.

Marry stood by the corner of the room, listening to her mistress cries and did not know how to approach her.

She did saw the master storming out of the mansion and speeding away in his car.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

Tinsley let her agony out because she was hopeful that keeping them in would only cause more pain and that this would pass away.

He must be under stress and was getting late to work just like he mentioned. He always had a short temper.

He never liked to be talked back. It was very clear for her. So she rubbed her tears off and reminded herself to start taking note of his likes and dislikes so that in the future, she could make sure he would not have one reason to get angry.

Marry knocked on the door getting Tinsley’s attention. She nodded her head for the young maid to get in.

Marry pulled the laundry cart in along with her and bowed before the mistress before disappearing inside the walk-in closet to collect the clothes to be washed in.

Tinsley got up and slipped in one of her nightgowns and called out for the maid.

“I would like for you to show me around the house and its works. ”

Marry was a bit taken aback as no mistress would show interest in the household chores but she shook her head in positive regardless.

Before heading out of the room, Tinsley’s eyes fell on the pills on the nightstand.

With a heavy heart, she gulped them down her throat and walked out of there.
