Chapter 98 WAKE ME UP
1547words
"Take her away.." I hear my husband's voice and I pierce away my gaze from Ann to Andrew. His face too looks stern and livid.
I don't understand what have I done?
Miss Celine hurriedly comes over and then holding me gently, she pulls me away from them and straight to the elevator.
I turn and look at them anxiously, I see Ann's body shaking from the immersed anger and Andrew holding her in his embrace as he is trying to shield her from something. He looks too lost in protecting her that he didn't even look at me once.
DING
The elevator door closes and I am safely brought back to my room, "Miss, Have some water." Miss Celine hands me the glass of water and just then I realize that my whole body is shivering. Shivering from the fear of Ann's sudden outburst.
"Why does she behave like this? Did I do something wrong?" I ask Miss Celine still not understanding the reason behind Ann's outburst.
"I was trying to tell you this, Miss." Miss Celine opens her mouth looking guilty and then continues, "After Mr. Jack's and his wife's death, when Miss Swan arrived in the mansion, she had refused to celebrate Sir Andrew's birthday."
"Refused?" I ask, not understanding the hidden meaning behind her words.
"Miss Swan had a difficult start in her life and it seemed to happen because of Mr. Jack's wish to be blessed with a son, not a daughter. He had never accepted Miss Swan as his daughter in his life and after his death, Sir Andrew is nothing but a man who is reciprocating the deeds his father had done in the past." Miss Celine tells me briefly and I blink in incredulity.
"It's not Andrew's fault for whatever happened to Ann in the past," I say what I feel in my heart.
I could see the love and affection and respect in Andrew's eyes for his sister, so then why Ann is being unfair to him? She should have moved on from her past instead of dragging it unnecessarily. Whatever their father had done couldn't be forgotten but at least they could bury it behind, no?
"We are their servants, Miss. We can't say a word in what's happening between them." Miss Celine says helplessly and I nod in agreement.
They can't but I can, and I will definitely talk to Andrew about this.
He shouldn't be sacrificing himself for what his father had done to Ann.
This night, I wait for my husband to come back but he didn't, Miss Celine brings my dinner to the room but I didn't touch it. I am worried and concerned for Andrew and Ann, my child protest for the food but somehow I am able to calm it down.
I wait patiently for my husband but he didn't show up, I look at the clock, it shows past 11 but still, my husband is nowhere to be seen. Feeling impatient, I walk out of my room straight to Ann's floor. I take a deep breath as I step out of the elevator, I don't often come here and I don't know if my husband would appreciate my move of coming here.
Bracing myself, I walk towards Ann's room, the door is open slightly, and opening it wide I enter inside and then hear some shocking and confusing things.
"Don't lie to me, You were trying to make her escape... No..?" I hear Ann's voice, she is still angry and pissed.
"No, why would I? I hate her... I sleep with her just because you wanted a child, otherwise, why would I? Don't forget Ann that it's you who pushes me to her. I never wanted her in my life."
I stumble backward hearing my husband's voice. Hate her? A child? Are they talking about me?
"This thing is going out of control day by day..." Ann scowls.
"Don't worry, I'll find a way to get rid of her." My husband's voice sounded, comforting Ann, and feeling anger bubbling inside my body, I walk inside the room and questioned firmly. "Who do you want to get rid of? Me or my child?"
Ann and Andrew look at me in unison their eyes getting wide in alarm and shock.
"Tessy..." Andrew begins but I raise my hand, "You hate me... You never wanted a child... It was Ann who wanted a child, right?" I say as I keep walking backward afraid that this brother and sister would harm me or my child.
"Tess, dear..." I hear Ann's voice but my mind is in a mess as without thinking I start running away from them. I need to get out of this mansion as soon as I could.
I rush to the elevator and press the button but it takes time and I see my husband emerging from Ann's room. My child moves and I hold my belly protectively. Impassively, I run towards the stair, I need to save my child first.
"No..."
While climbing down, I miss my step and feel myself spinning in the air, my mind rolls heavily and with a jolt, I fall heavily.
I hear faint noise calling my name but I am unable to move, I feel dizzy and weak, and I feel extreme pain shooting in my belly, and then to my V. I clutch my belly, groaning in pain, and something warm then covers my eyes as I slowly start to lose my consciousness.
"Tessy."
****
"Ahh..." I hear faint noises around me, it's too noisy, someone is sobbing, or yelling, I don't know I could feel nothing, my body is numb but my mind is awake. I could sense the movements, I am cold very cold and I feel pain, "Ahhh..." Something just pierce into my skin, it's too painful, I shake my head trying to get rid of the pain but I could feel that I am not actually moving. I feel something on my hand, what is it but it seems familiar and comforting.
It seems to calm my nerves slightly and again I am feeling dizzy, but then a cry wakes me up again.
WU... WU... WU...
A cry of a child wakes up my nerves again, a baby? My Baby? I desperately try to move my lids and open my eyes but I couldn't no matter what I do I am not able to do anything at all. I feel pathetic and miserable and then again a pain shoots up in my stomach going straight to my V and I wince from it.
My head gets blurry as I again start to lose my conscious nerves.
Oh God, Please wake me up from this terrible dream.
****
"I am spinning," I whine in a disoriented state while Andrew turns me recklessly and then starts thrusting brutally into me.
"Sure you are." He seethes as he pounded more heavily into me, my whole body shakes and he looks mad at me. He isn't making love but punishing me and I seem to be losing my consciousness, but his bites on my skin wake up me every time as I wince in pain.
He stands up pulling me up as he starts to hit my back roughly and then again he is inside me, "Take it bitch, Take it all... You asked for this." Andrew growl and while hitting me his hand hit the wine bottle and it shatter on the ground beside me.
SHATTER
He doesn't care about it as he push his fingers into my hair and then very brutally he pulls my hair making my scalp burn from the pain. "Ahhh..."
"You kill my child, I'll kill you." He whispers dangerously in my ear and then bent down to pick the broken piece of wine bottle in an attempt to kill me Just then there is a loud thud on the door and the door open from the outside.
BOOM
"Andrew... Stop." It was Ann's voice.
"Mona left me because of her and my child... I'll kill her, Ann... I'll kill her." Andrew says stubbornly his words laced with pure hatred for me.
"Calm down, Andrew... Calm down." Ann tries to comfort him, "Drop the bottle." She commands and he did.
He drop the bottle and then loosen his grip on me as I fall heavily to the ground.
THUMP
"What have you done." I hear Ann's anxious voice after a while.
"Did I kill her?" Andrew's voice seems to get sober and then Ann commands him, "Pick her up and bring her outside, I'll call the doctor immediately."
"I....I...." Andrew stutter and Ann snaps, "She is not dead yet... but if we delay taking her to the doctor then she might get dead. So, stop weeping like a kid and bring her out. Now..."
****
"Tessy...." I hear a loud sigh and suddenly I open my eyes.
