Chapter Fourteen

Claire

The next day, I woke up far different from how I had slept. My aunt barged into my apartment and told me that a family meeting was coming up. She had probably shit-talked me to my parents because I didn’t even trust her not to do that anymore. She seemed happy that something was coming up, and I started to brace myself for the backlash from the family.

According to her, it was not just my parents who were here to see me, but every other member of the family that cared to attend.

“Why? How did they all get to know about this?”

“I don’t know. Did you expect it to be easy to hide that? As much as you love to, you can’t. Your belly will start protruding soon, and at that point, there will be little or nothing you can do to hide the pregnancy.”

I didn’t like the tone of my aunt's voice. As far as I was concerned, she was already beginning to become a thorn in my flesh and I was quickly beginning to hate her so much. I could not believe that my aunt would switch up on me so fast simply because I had probably been impregnated by her dream man. Unfortunately for her, I was his dream girl now, and she would never be.

“Look, Aunty. I used to have a lot of respect for you and I still do. But if you keep on being a problem to me, you will hate me much more than you hate me already.”

“Hate you already?” she said, feigning ignorance.

“Auntie, please don’t pretend. We both know you are hurt by this situation, although I’m not sure why you are. A few reasons come to mind though.”

She made a face at me and turned towards the door.

“Look, I don’t know what you are talking about, but all you’re saying will not matter when the whole family is upon us. You do know that I will be blamed for what happens to you, right? So if I can’t control you to behave properly, what makes you think they won’t start to see me as an irresponsible person?”

She had a point, even though I could not give a rat's ass about what any family members thought about me. Realistically, I just wanted to be happy, and if she was going to be an obstacle to that, then even she was removable. Not that I did not know that adulthood came with ordeals and struggles. But above everything else, it came with goodbyes.

There comes a time in one's life when you had to choose yourself for yourself. You have to win and stay strong while choosing the best thing for you. If she felt that Jonah was the best for her, then he was the best for her.

After my aunt left, I was thrown into deep thoughts about my life. If my parents were going to be part of that meeting, then it was bound to get feisty. Both ways, I knew it was not going to be easy.
