No. This can’t be happening to me. I can’t be pregnant. Not now and definitely not with Ethan’s baby.

“Why God?” I whisper as the tears fall down my face.

I wait for an answer but none comes. He doesn’t tell me why this was happening to me. He doesn’t tell me why he had to make me this unlucky.

I try to pick myself from the bathroom floor, but I just don’t have the energy. I’m completely drained.

Was it my lot in life to have unplanned pregnancies? First with Noah and now this one.

I stare sightlessly at the tiled floor, thinking back. Ethan and I had unprotected sex once. I was supposed to take a morning after pill, but I completely forgot. By the time I remembered, a few days had already passed.

I told Ethan about it. I expected him to be angry about it, but he wasn’t. Instead he calmed me down. We both reasoned that it was unlikely for me to be pregnant.

I noticed some changes, like my period being late, but I thought it was due to the stress I was under. I never gave much thought to my increase in appetite since I always eat when I’m stressed or sad.

The banging on my door startles me, but I don’t get up. Now more than before, I didn’t want to see anybody. When the banging continues, I put my head between my knees and cover my ears. I just wanted whoever it is to leave.

It becomes silent for a while. I breathe a sigh of relief but then start to panic when I hear the door open and heavy footsteps walking upstairs.

Before I can do anything, like maybe hide, in case it was an intruder. A shadow fills the door way to my bathroom.

“Ava?” Rowan’s deep voices resonates through the entire room.

The moment my eyes meet with his, I start crying again. Of all people, why did it have to be him?
