Two months later
Mia's P.O.V
I saw a light and two doors. One was looking spoilt and the other was a good fixed door and then a
woman appeared in front of me. She was beautiful. She had beautiful Violet eyes with her olive skin
and long dirty blonde hair in a beautiful white dress. She looked just like
"Mum?" I said shocked and then she smiled at me confirming that it was her that was really standing
here.
"Mia." Her beautiful soft voice said.
"Mum!" I exclaimed and hugged her. Hugged her like she might go again if I leave her but then I
released her little by little.
"My Mia. My beautiful daughter." She said and I hugged her once more and left her.
"Mum, you have to come back. Beth needs you. We need you mum. You have to come back". I said
and didn't even know when I started crying. She put her soft hand on my face which I missed so much.
I rubbed my face on her hand as she smiled at me.
"I can't come back Mia and that's why your there. To take care of Beth and you are one of the best
guardians I've seen." She said and smiled at me.
"But I don't wanna leave you
Your going to be lonely mum and I don't want you to be lonely."
"But if you go now Mia, Beth won't have anyone to talk to and have and Scott needs you." She replied
and I shook my head.
"Mum, Scott doesn't love me anymore. He doesn't need me anymore. He doesn't miss me mum. Scott
doesn't love me anymore." I told her and she smiled again.
"Oh my Mia. Scott loves you. He loves you more than you can imagine Mia and when he finds out that
your two, he's going to love you more than you can imagine." She said confusing me.
"What do you mean I'm two mum?" I asked and she shook her head.
"When its the right time, you'll know and this is where I say goodbye." She said and stood up but then I
held her hand tight.
"No mum, you can't go now. No" I said as I shook my head and she continued smiling.
"Look at those two doors. Go through one of them and you'll see me again." She said and then
disappears. I run to the doors and stand in between them and then I chose the crooked door and a
white light shines blinding my sight.
I wake up to seeing myself in a bed. I blink my eyes to try and adjust to the light. The walls are purely
white except for a poster with green trees on them and a figure on an armchair in the room covering
himself with his blazer. The blazer falls off the person's face and I see the person's face which is Scott?
What is he doing here? I ask myself. He opens his eyes and blinks them. He sees me awake and his
eyes are wide open then I feel a wave of nausea over me as I throw up a yellow liquid and he comes
over and pats my back as I continue throwing up then when done, he makes me rest my head back
cause it was pounding.
"I'm coming." He said, his voice raspy and deep as always. He goes out if the room and comes back
with a doctor and two nurses. Oh. So, I'm in the hospital? The nurses pack the vomit and rushes out
and the doctor puts a hand on my head.
"I need to test her as to know why she threw up." The doctor said and I nodded my head then he took
small of my blood and left the room. I was really craving for water but didn't want to talk to Scott and
that's why my eyes were scanning everywhere except Scott as he continued looking at me. Oh fuck it.
"Water." I croaked out and he rushed and brought a glass full for me and he watched me as I finished
all in one gulp.
"You good?" He asked and I nodded. He went back to sit down and so an awkward silence passed us.
"Why did you do it Mia?" He asked.
"Do what?" I said.
"You know what I mean."
"I don't." Then he sighs out.
"Why did you change yourself to Emily. Why did you do that?" He asked again.
"Because I needed that job. I would do anything just to know that Beth's happy." I replied.
"Why are you here Scott? In fact, why were you in that place in the first place? I mean, you don't even
like me anymore so, I- I don't just get it." I said kind of rhetorical and so he stood up and walked up to
me making my breath hitch as his face was a few inches from mine.
"Your right Mia, I don't like you at all because I love you Emilia. Emilia Thompson I love you okay?" He
said and connected our lips together but then I pushed him back.
"You haven't answered my question Scott." He sighed out.
"Jasmine had been acting suspicious and so I decided to follow her and she led me to you" he
answered then looked up to me.
"Why Mia? Why? Why did you leave? Why?" He said sounding broken making my heart squeeze. I felt
so guilty for leaving him but it was the only thing I could do to protect him.
"Scott, my father raped me" his head whipped up facing me, his facial expression telling me this isn't
the answer he was expecting.
"Wh-what?" He stuttered, blinking his eyes to be sure about what I just said.
"I was seven when it started. He said we were going to a fun place and I was so happy I would spend
time with my daddy. He took me to the shadier parts of the town making me confused and so I turned
back to ask him what we were doing here but then he was already removing his clothes and then he
did it." I felt a hand grip mine to show comfort as I looked up and saw it was Scott.
"I'm sorry Mia. I shouldn't have aske-"
"No its okay. I want to tell you." I cut him off.
"He kept doing it and one day I had a chance to call the police and he found out and took me there
again. He was about to do it when I heard the police and I was relieved. They arrested him but before
he left, he told me he was going to come back for me because I was his and he would kill anyone who
tried to stand in his way and so I and my mum then moved to California where I met you and fell in love
with you after we kissed on the beach but knew I was going to leave soon because before we came to
the beach, I received a message telling me that he was back and he's coming for me and destroying all
I loved and so I and mum had to leave. To think back about it, I feel guilty. Gosh, I'm so sorry Sco-" I
was cut off as I felt lips connected to mine and then pulled me into a comforting embrace which I loved.
"No Mia, don't apologize. It was not your fault and there was nothing you could Mia." He said as I
continued crying into his shirt which he was not mad at me for wetting it. The door shut making our
heads shoot up to find Beth standing by the door. We looked at each other for what seemed like years
and Scott started standing to leave to give us privacy but I needed him here and so I held his hand This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
tightly and so out of surprise and shock, he smiled and sat down. I looked back at Beth who was still
staring at me, tears filled in her eyes likewise mine and so she ran up to me and hugged me which I
returned. I hugged her like my life depended on it and she hugged me like if she kept me go, I would
disappear. We hugged and cried for a long time before we finally let go of each other and so she smiled
at me, tears escaping as she tried not to cry again.
"Mia."
"Beth"
"Your alive"
"I'm alive." And with that, she hugged me once more and let me go then cleaned her tears. She looked
between the both of us, a smirk forming on her lips.
"Hmmm, I'll give you guys privacy." She winked at me and left the room and I looked at my hands not
liking how they were looking at me and a hand intertwined our fingers together making me look up at
Scott.
"I missed you." He said.
"I mis-" I was cut off by the doctor that just came in, a grin on his face.
"Yes doctor, what was wrong with Emilia that she threw up after just waking up from coma?" Scott
asked.
"Well, its because she's pregnant. Congratulations Mr. Ryder." the doctor said with a grin then turns to
leave.
"Alexandro, what did you say?" Scott asked again.
"I just told you Emilia's pregnant. Congratulations. Well, I'll see you later." He says and leaves the
room. Awkward silence fills the room. I was pregnant. But how come? I thought but then remembered
about that night between Scott and I. I brought myself back to reality as I stared at Scott only to see a
blank face. No emotions. Nothing. Looks like he's not happy about it. I sigh out.
"Sco-"
"Mi-" we said at the same time
"I know your not happy about then news so you can leave but I am not aborting this child." I tell him
with all the power I have so I won't cry out there.
"What? What are you talki-"
"You can leave Scott. I understand if you don't want the child. You can go." I tell him.
"Wha-"
"Its okay Scott. You can le-"
"Could you be quiet so I can speak?!!!" He yelled making me shut up and then his eyes softens as he
strokes my face and I melt into his touch.
"I was never going to ask you to abort our child Mia and I wasn't planning on leaving anytime soon so
its gonna be hard to get rid of me." He said with a cheeky grin on his face.
"Wh-what?" I said, shocked.
"I was never planning on leaving you Mia. I love you so much."
"Yo-you weren't going tell me to abort the child?" I asked.
"I was never going to ask you Mia. What do you take me for? A murderer?" He said jokingly but I could
hear the little hurt at the back of his voice.
" No I don't but why the blank face when the doctor said it?" I asked him.
"I was overwhelmed. I was happy and I was scared because I didn't know what we were going to do."
He said and I understood his reason.
"I understand."
"Ahh, I can't believe I'm going to be a father and the child is coming from the woman I am madly in love
with." He squealed like a kid high on sugar who just got his dream come true making me laugh as he
came to my tummy and kissed it countless times and came to my face and kissed me.
"Thank you for giving me the best gift you could've ever given me." He said making me realize that
even through all the problems and challenges we had gone through, I was
