It's a brand new day and we are woken up by the noise coming from outside. We tried. Like really, we really tried to ignore it but the shouting got worse and worse and its only the 8th hour of the day. Its too early for people who slept at midnight. We put on our gowns as we head downstairs complaining.

"I swear I'm gonna strangle the neck of the person causing all this chaos in the morning, especially if they've got no reasons." Elena utters underneath her breath, and according to her facial expression she does not look like she is joking.

I open the door and as we show up, the quarreling immediately stops. My eyes shoot open as it's Bridget. I told the guards never to let her in. That must have been what led to the whole argument thing. Elena chuckles unbelievably as she looks away like she really cannot believe how unbelievable Bridget is. What is she even doing here? Isn't she supposed to be in France?

"Justin." Bridget sobs, trying to approach me but Benny the guard stops her. I sigh.

"Brigdet, what are you doing here?" I ask. "Why did you come back?" I continue.

"Isn't it clear? She is back to claim what never belonged to her." Elena says as she heads back inside, sounding bored by just her tone as she yawns after.

"Justin, I love you. I would die for you. Please, don't turn me down again." Bridget sobs as she goes down on her knees and I roll my eyes.

"Bridget get off the ground and pull yourself together. Elena and I have started our chapter as one, that means no to you and me." I affirm, and I watch her face turn red of anger.

"You think Elena loves you?" She yells, chuckling unbelievably as she is starting to look like she is losing it. "She doesn't love you, Justin. I am the only on one who has ever loved you. All she cares about is the money, your wealth. If you were a broke man, you'd be feeling sorry for yourself right now cause you'd be drawing her in your dreams. I thought you knew better than to be tricked by girls like Elena." She continues, seeming like she is recovering as she is getting things off her chest.

I am left astounded. What is she talking about? I have taught myself Elena for the longest time. I know her very well. Bridget cannot tell me that I do not know Elena. I am marrying and choosing her for a reason.

"Don't ever talk sh*t about my wife again." I say it calmy, stretching out my hand to reach for my phone as I send her an invitation to the mysterious event that is the gender reveal. "Come see for yourself what real love is." I say as I head back inside without looking back.

To my surprise, I chuckle as I firstly enter the door. Elena is sleeping recklessly on the couch like she has dosed off. The whole pregnancy thing has really got to her. She eats a lot. She sleeps a lot and my she has gained a lot on her figure but beautifully is what I should be glad of. I kiss her on the forehead as I pass and head to the bedroom. I take a shower and get in my outfit for work and then I make a little breakfast for Elena to give to her.

"Where are you off to?" She asks in her sleepy voice as she wakes up to sit up straight.

"Work. I've got to take care of some few things. But I'll be back early today, I promise." I say.

I start to hear her sniff as she has her head bent, and I look at her of curiosity and she is really crying. I turn to be speechless.

"Honey...are you crying?" I inquire.

"No, I'm not. It's just that I just woke up and you didn't wake me up to help you prepare for work and you wake me up only to tell me that your leaving." She sobs, and I chuckle to myself as i tuck my trouser and sit beside her and let her lean on my chest.

"Okay, I have a better idea. How about you go and shower while I choose an outfit for you and we could go to work together. I'll have Cario snap you some pics for some memories. And maybe we could have our first baby bump picture together." I whisper in her ear as I lay a kiss on her head and she immediately raises her head.

"Really? Oh, thank you baby. You didn't have to but I'll just be back." Her mood suddenly changes as she tries to run to head to the room and I am felt astounded of how she quickly switched her moods. I chuckle to myself as I stand up and follow her behind.

ELENA

We walk through the building door hand in hand as we are warmthfully welcomed by the employees, my colleagues. I am hiding my bump with a blouse on top of my trouser. Can't reveal it until the big day tomorrow. Lisa shows up smiley faces, and I swear I saw her smile turn into a smirk when her eyes fell on me.

"Oh my goodness, Elena!" Cario shows up out of nowhere seeming excited to see me. I guess the news that I am here just flew like a second within a minute.

"Hey, Cario. It's been a long time, I know." We both giggle at the end.

Lisa and Justin are standing a little far off discussing something over a whisper. My eyes land on Justin and he seems like they are talking about me and about a not very pleasing thing. He seems disappointed and like he does not believe. He keeps on looking at me and this carries me aback from Cario. I am so shut out of Cario talking. What could they be discussing that's so serious?

"Are you even listening to me? Hello." Cario snaps his fingers before my face and I blink twice as I flesh him a weak smile.

"Sorry..." I am cut off by Justin.

"Cario could you please take Elena to the shooting room and have her try out the new designs that just arrived and you know what to do next. I'll be in the office." Justin says, looking at me once as he lays a kiss on one of my cheeks and leaves.

I walk with Cario to the shooting room and he continues where he left off as I am only picking pierces of our conversation here and there. He picks out five different dresses and places them on the table.

"Girl, get rid of that blouse. You are ought to look like mother Teressa in this." Cario utters, holding in the air a pink mermaid gown a-line dress with curls at the end and the cloth looking like it is made up of fish scales with its arms looking like petals. I get rid of my blouse and Cario's jaws drop to the ground. "Shut up!" He exclaims, looking around like there are other people except us in the room to witness it too.

"Tadaaa." I say it nervously.

"Girl, you are pregnant." He whispers. "Does Mr Harris know?" He continues with the whispering.

"Come on, Cario. I share a bed with the man. Of course he knows." I say as I head to the changing room, leaving Cario gasping non-stop.

I change into the dresses and for the three of them there is no sign of Justin. I feel distracted myself during the shooting. Most photos hide it because I had to already act like it was an unintended photo. But my mind travels through the way Justin looked at me back then. Why did he look at me like I was some sort of creature he had never seen before but managed to betray his trust.

"Girl, what's going on in your little head?" Cario asks, and just then Justin walks through the door without his jacket and he heads straight to the changing room.

He changes and for my last two dresses he is included in the photos. Our photos feel so emotional. I seem to be the only one taking it very personal as Justin is even able to embrace a smile towards the camera. My attention is on him, his hands that land on my bump and ear to hear the babies. Maybe I am trying too hard to read his mind.

"Smile, the camera is watching." Justin whispers to me as he lifts up my chin to look at him, and looking into his eyes just takes me to another land or atleast off to club triple nine. I smile.

A FEW HOURS LATER

"So how long are you going to keep it a secret?" Cario asks as he is escorting me out to Justin's office who left immediately after the photoshoot. "Oh, wait. The mysterious party tomorrow. Its the gender reveal or pregnancy reveal right?" He continues excitedly.

"Of course, Cario. So don't make a mistake by missing it. I'd hate it if you of all people hear the news by hear say." I giggle to say.

"You know what? Have a good day, girl. I was starting to think of not coming but now I definitely need an outfit for tomorrow's event." He gives me a French kiss before we part ways.

I head to Justin's office as its only a few blocks left now. As I am still approaching, sudden cramps reach me and I stand still to wince in pain as I hold my abdomen. I start to hear chattering as its like my ears are turning even clearer than before.

"Yes, Mr Harris. I'll send you the proof via email as soon as the IT man is done with it." I hear Lisa say.

"I still cannot believe it." Justin says back.

I walk in slowly and Justin slowly raises his eyes to look at me as Lisa goes silent. So they are really talking about me. If not then why did they suddenly go silent when I walk in. Lisa looking like the cat's caught her tongue and Justin looking like I am not the cup of tea he would like to enjoy right now. I swallow my overthinking down my throat as I approach and form a smile on my face.

"I was just coming to let you know that I'll be out for a little while to meet with Patricia and Issa." I utter, and Justin stands up as he approaches me and he suddenly hugs me as tight as he can. Running his muscled arms around my waist and I look at Lisa to find her pissed. What's wrong with her?

"I love you so much." Justin affirms, letting go as he cups my face.

"I love you too, baby." As i say, Justin gives me a baby kiss. "I'll be out now. I'll let you know when I get home." I continue as I slowly turn to leave.

Lisa! Why has she suddenly changed? I know I suspected her always smiley face from the onset but witnessing the opposite of it is scary. It's like looking at a friend who had always been dear to you and turns out to be the one who had been holding a knife behind your back.

"Have a good day, Mrs Harris." Clara shouts by the reception as I pass by and I only manage to flesh her a smile.

I head to Priscilla's house where I find her eating pizza on a plate with fries and I throw myself beside her on her couch as I take her plate and place it on my revealed bump as I lay back.

"Whoo! When you said you were pregnant. I didn't know you meant it was this big." Patricia says. "Are you sure you got no triplets in there?" She proceeds and I roll my eyes at her.

Isabella barges in like she is being thrown in as she nearly even falls and she utters, "I came here as fast as I can. Your sad emojis. What's wrong?"

They are both now looking at me.

"I don't know. Justin has been a little strange today. He whispers things with Lisa and Lisa! She has completely changed. She has really been a lamb in a lion's skin. She smiles before Justin but just after Justin turns his head she smirks." I sulk. "What the f*ck is she doing with my man!" I yell out loud to an extend that I startle Issa and Patricia.

"Um...Elena." Isabella slowly approaches her hands to caress me, Patricia already placing hers on my thighs. "I think having a baby is not as easy as it may seem to be. Maybe he is just overwhelmed by the whole thing. A baby is not as cheap as it may look." She continues.

"Yeah, yeah. He is probably just busy travelling in his mind. You guys are ought to have a baby!" Patricia says, and I chuckle.

"A baby! We are having babies. Twins" I say in a cry. Patricia spills the juice she has just put in her mouth as her eyes pop out of their sockets.

"You're having what!" They both exclaim together.

"So you were not going to tell us." Patricia utters and i sigh tiredly.

"Really! I don't know what lies Lisa is feeding my husband and all you are worried about is whether i told you i am having twins or not? Wow." I release.

The Justin's look is the one i cannot get off my mind. He has never looked at me like that before. Maybe my pregnancy hormones are activating too high i think. Anyway, i spend the whole day with Patricia and Isabella and we even head out for dinner.

"Justin Harris is the dream man of every girl. Trust me girl. He is handsome, polite and not like those rich arrogant men who are controllable." These are the words that end my heart as my mind had forgotten about Lisa the moment food was laid before my eyes.

We later then head our separate ways, and Justin's chaufer comes to get me. I head home tired as i find Justin already in the bedroom as he has just taken a shower and i sit on the bed before i could let out any word. I slowly open my eyes to find Justin smiling at me.

"I'm sorry, i'm just too tired to even say anything." I sulk. "Hi, baby." I continue.

"I have prepared a warm bubble bath for you. Go get in before you sleep." Justin affirms.

I smile tiredly as i head to the bathroom, and i return back to change into a gown as i head back to the bathroom. The bath seems so rekaxing and relieving. It is as if i have been carrying this burden on my shoulders and now someone just stretched out his arm to help me with the burden. I end up slowly closing my eyes as i feel my eyelids gain weight.

"Elena, wake up. You could drown sleeping in the bathtub."

My eyes shoot open at the thought of drowning. Would my babies survive it? Or if they could and i would not, they would grow up without a mother and i want it to end with me. Every born baby or babies out there deserve to feel a mother's love. Infact, both parents' love.

BRIGDET

"Jasmine, i need a little favour from you." I utter through the phone. "I want you to change someone's words in a video i have got here. Can you do that? Afterall, you do still owe me." I continue.

Jasmine breathes heavily over the phone.

"Send me your location." She says.

"Good girl." I end the call.

Elena is going to get what is coming for her. If i cannot get Justin then no one else can have him. She is going to wish her and i never crossed paths in her life. And when Justin looks at her, all he will see is a gold digger just looking for opportunities.

"Maybe then Justin will finally notice that I have been the only loyal girl he has ever met and he will cancel the wedding and marry me instead." I laugh out loud at the end.

My mom walks through my room and I go completely silent as I flesh her a tiny smile. She places the tray of food she has in her hand beside my bedside and takes a seat beside me. I have turned into a cute little innocent lamb within a blink of an eye. My mom thinks I am so heartbroken about Justin choosing Elena, which I am but I will never be too broken to fight for what's mine. She thinks I should just move on and she will hook me up with some presidents' sons. I want no president's son. I want Justin Harris.

"Sweatheart, you have not eaten anything all day. Eat something or else you'll faint at Justin's mystery event tomorrow." My mom says.

Maybe fainting will even be better. Maybe Justin will finally notice me. I mean, all the attention will be on me. He will be left with no choice but to handle me and make sure that i am okay. It will be his event afterall. And poor Elena can watch as I snatch back what rightfully belongs to me. An evil smile appears on my face at this.

"Wait, you guys are also going?" I ask my mom, and she smiles.

"Of course we are. His dad personally invited us." My mom replies.

Maybe she knows what is the mystery.

"Heard he is going to announce Elena as his wife and invite everyone present to his wedding. Don't embarass me and act desperate. I raised a strong girl, not the opposite." My mom says as she leaves my room.

I side smile. Of course mom, you never raised a girl prone to weakness. I am going to make sure that Justin never gets a chance to announce his wedding date with Elena. I will make sure that he is too disgusted and disappointed by her by that moment that he will want literally nothing to do with her. A message notification reaches my phone.

"I'm at the gate." It's Jasmine.

I head out and meet her by the gate and show her the video of Elena with her friends just a few hours ago at the restaurant. I tell her exactly what I want her to do and the words I want should be heard. Then Jasmine takes a few notes before she takes the video to leave.

"I'll send you the video within thirty minutes." Jasmine assures as she leaves.

"Now that's what I'm talking about." I turn to get back in the yard, finding my dad right behind the gate with his arms crossed before his chest and he loudly sighs.

"What did I say about your relationship with Jasmine? I told you that girl is no good for you." My dad affirms.

He has always been against me knowing Jasmine. Just because Jasmine once was one of the harlots that my dad fell into the trap of and nearly got divorced by my mom. And trust me when I say my dad would be nothing without my mom. But I helped Jasmine get a sincere apology to my mom and promised to change and when I found out that she was an IT expert I did her a favor by connecting her with one of my college friends who owns an IT business

"Come on, dad. We both know Jasmine has changed." I utter.

"But I still don't want her anywhere near my family." My dad whispers. "What were you even doing with her?" He continues.

My eyes fill the entire yard before I could think of an answer. I know my dad is totally going to be against my plan if I tell him. He holds a very good relationship with Justin that he supports him with his all through his marriage. He said it's a good thing that he realized where his heart was before he married me or else we were going to be in a blah, blah, blah marriage.

"Um... I wanted to create a little cute video for Justin and Elena as a gift for their event tomorrow." I find to say, and luckily my dad buys it.

"That's really nice of you, sweatheart. Maybe we should also get a little something for the pastor too." Both my dad and I laugh out loudly at the thought.

We head inside and pick our outfits online for Justin's event. The house keeper will be sent to fetch them first thing in the morning tomorrow. Then we have dinner and then soon it's time to go to bed. I am certain at this time my video from Jasmine has long been received.

"Justin Harris is the dream man of every girl. Trust me girl. He is rich, sexy and just like those rich arrogant men who like to be in control. I just can't wait to drain him off his money with this babies. He is going to wish he had never laid his eyes on me before." Of course, I changed Elena's words to make Elena seem like all she wants is Justin's money and this way Justin will want nothing to do with her. It ends at the part where she toasts with her juice with her friends.

Justin is so going to buy this because the voice sounds exactly like Elena's. And she has her back a little on the camera. The end where they toast matches exactly with the news. Now it's time to get me a goodnight. I need to be as fresh as a leaf from a tree in spring tomorrow when I watch Justin embarass Elena before the whole crowd. And finally, Bridget will be crowned as the to be Mrs Harris.
