"Love is a curse for me, Mum."

KIARA BURGESS

Zayn Sir was waiting for RJ's arrival but I know she won't come because she has been given sleeping pills and locked in a room by my gang.

My talk with Zayn Sir was to give him one last chance to back out from this marriage because I didn't want things to turn dirty but guess what... he wants it dirty.

We were told that Dad had asked the family to gather in another room. As we entered, he walked straight to Zayn and at that moment, my heartbeat began to race uncontrollably.

It's coming, Ki.

He held Zayn's suit collar and said "How could you? How could you do this to my daughter?"

"What?" Zayn asked, completely clueless about what's happening.

"You cheated on RJ."

"What the hell!?"

"When you were in a relationship, you slept with my daughter."

"Are you out of your mind, Sam? What the fuck are you saying?" Zayn Sir looked confused.
(Sam Burgess is Kiara and RJ's father)

"Do not try to fight with me on this. I will not let you get away with this."

I smirked.

Yes! Yes! It's happening! Dad will end this marriage.

"I haven't cheated on Rose."

"I have proof against you."

"What are you talking about?" Zayn's father interrupted.

Suddenly I felt Zayn Sir's eyes on me and I passed him the sweetest smile I could.

I told you... Do not challenge Kiara Burgess.

His jaw clenched, I guess he figured out that I did something.

Well of course it's me.

"Dad."

"Ki?"

"I need to talk to you."

"I am busy, we can talk later Ki."

"No. It's about RJ."

He stopped on hearing RJ's name. "What about RJ?"

"Dad, I think Zayn Sir doesn't love RJ."

"Not again, Ki. What problem do you have with Zayn?"

"Dad please. Trust me, there is something wrong with him."

"Ki, I think we talked about it. You don't have any proof against him. So just stop blaming Zayn." He turned back to leave.

He's not gonna listen to me. I have to come up with something strong.

"I'm pregnant."

He stopped in his tracks, my words freezing him mid-step. Slowly, he turned to face me.

"And the child... it's Zayn Sir's."

His eyes widened. "What?"

"Five weeks ago, during our business trip, he got drunk one night. We... We... I-It happened, Dad. I had no idea he was in a relationship with RJ back then. When I told him about the pregnancy, he... he asked me to abort the baby."

To save RJ, I have to do this.

I placed my hand on my belly "I-I can't do it, Dad. I want to have this child. I don't want to kill an unborn child. This is wrong to abort the child because of our mistake."
