Chapter 41: Chapter 41

Celeste slowly opened her eyes and rubbed them with her fingers to get rid of the sleepiness. She didn’t know why her body felt light and didn’t realise when she fell asleep in the car. When she woke up she invented herself in Liam's room in the mansion. Liam must have brought her there and put her there.

Celeste heaved a sigh and felt her whole body aching. She didn’t realise how long she had been asleep. It must be because of the sedatives.

After stretching her body to get rid of the pain Celeste decided to head directly towards the shower to freshen up and get rid of the hospital smell. After entering the washroom she decided to take a shower instead. She stood under the warm shower before closing her eyes. She let her body get drenched as slowly her mind started to wander around what had happened earlier.

She was pregnant!

This time for real.

But why now? She didn’t want to get pregnant. She didn’t want to give birth to anyone and make them suffer like her. But when did God ever listen to her?

Celeste remembered the day a year ago when she desperately wanted to be pregnant so that she got a hope to live and survive. She was so hopeful that time but everything came crashing down by the doctor's one sentence.

'You are not pregnant'

She couldn’t explain how much that sentence had hurt her. For a moment she didn’t want to live anymore. She didn’t have any hope to live. When she ran out of the hospital she went directly to the Church to confront God for being so heartless to her. She decided, before she finally killed herself, she needed ro confront him for doing all those to her.

Why did He took everything from her at once? If he was so merciful then when didn’t he show her some mercy. After everything she only wanted a child from him. A child to live with. A child to survive those horrendous pain and sufferings. But He didn’t listen to her, instead he gave her hope and then crashed her totally by snatching it.

She was confronting God in the Church by standing in front of the statue of Jesus Christ. She was yelling and sobbing at the same time. There wasn’t anyone present at that time to watch her breakdown. She stayed there for almost 4 hours before finally deciding to go to the nearest hills to get rid of all the pain and sufferings.

When she was coming out of the church she found a bunch of kids playing while laughing and eating. She didn’t know why she stood there and watched those kids. They were the children from the Church which was run by the Central Church in Elora.

They didn’t have anyone in this world, just like her yet they seemed really happy. They might have also lost their parents like her. Why did parents have to leave their child in this world to suffer alone?

Celeste slowly sat on the bench and kept looking at the kids when suddenly two of the kids made their way towards her. One was around 5 or 6 years old while the other one seemed younger than her.

"Are you hungry? Do you want some waffles? Mother Nina gave us these. I'm full so you can have this." The six years old gave her a box which had a half eaten Waffle. Celeste looked at the waffles and then at the young girl.

Waffles were always her favorite and her grandma always made them for her. Thinking of those memories her eyes teared up.

"Are you sad? Please don't cry. You can have my chocolate too." The 4 years old boy said while handling his chocolate towards Celeste. Celeste couldn’t help but smile.

" Thank you.I'm not sad. It's just I'm missing my beloved." Celeste said while giving back the chocolate to the boy.

"Are you missing your parents? Did your parents also die like mine? Mother Nina said my parents died in a car accident and Little Sean's parents died in a fire. We also get sad but mother Nina said we should not get sad as our mommy and daddy are always looking at us from the sky. You should not be sad." The young girl said in her cute baby voice, making Celeste smile.

"Thank you. What's your name, sweety?" Celeste asked, holding the little girl's cheek.

"My name is Sienna and this is Sean. Our name matches that's why we have decided to be best friends. What's your name?" Sienna said with a smile while Sean nodded grinning.

"Aww. You guys' names are so beautiful. I'm Celeste." Celeste said with a smile.

"Thank you. Your name is beautiful too." Sienna said with a grin, one of her front teeth was missing. She was about to say something when the other kids started calling their names.

"We have to go. By Celeste." Sienna said and Celeste nodded with a smile before she ran towards where the other kids were while holding Sean's hand.

"Bye." Celeste softly whispered while looking at their backs.

She didn’t know why she felt really grateful that she wasn’t pregnant. What if she also died and left her child to suffer like her? Who would take care of him or her? She had one else to take care of her child if something bad happened to her. Would she ever want to suffer the same thing she had been suffering since her childhood? No never.

And it was the moment when she decided not to have any children ever. She didn’t want her babies to suffer like her. Never!

Celeste didn’t realise how long she had been under the shower but she came out of her thoughts when she felt cold.

She was pregnant!

It wasn’t good for her baby!

Celeste instantly moved out of the shower and wrapped one of her hands protectively around her stomach before turning off the shower. She then grabbed a dry towel and dried herself. She then took another dry towel and wrapped it around her body before exiting the washroom.

She came out of the washroom and looked for some comfortable clothes to wear. Fortunately her luggage was already placed in Liam's room so she just grabbed some clothes from there. After that she pulled away the towel from her body and was about to put on the clothes when suddenly the door of the room opened and someone entered the room.

"Aaaahhhh!" Celeste shouted while trying to cover her body with her hands. Liam who just entered the room became surprised by the sudden ear piercing scream as he looked at the source with wide eyes.

In front of him stood a beautiful Celeste without any clothes. His eyes roamed over her body as a smirk made Its way on his face.

"What the hell Liam? Did you forget your basic manners? You should knock before entering a room?" Celeste said while glaring at him at the same time she also put one the clothes on her body. She was glad it was Liam.

"Why should I knock before entering my own room?" Liam said devilishly while crossing his arms on his chest. His stormy grey eyes were fully focused on Celeste watching her every move like a hawk.

"You!" Celeste became speechless with his words.

"What?" Liam asked teasingly with a raised brow.

"Then you shouldn’t have put me here in your room when I was asleep." Celeste said with a glare while combing her hair with his hair brush.

"So what? You are also mine." Liam said with a grin making Celeste instantly turn and look at him with wide eyes. Did she hear him right? Did he really call her his or he was just messing around with her?

"Liam Rodriguez, stop messing around with me." Celeste said with a glare before storming past him. Liam let out a chuckle before slowly following her behind.

He wasn’t messing around. He was serious. She was truly his!
