It was a cold winter night , there was even snow falling from the skies, still people wanted to go out. It was Jennifer's case, which even pregnant insisted to walk home, well most likely castle, pregnant and by herself, much to her 'husband's' unhappiness.
Arriving there she wanted to talk right to her husband, but as always he was engrossed in some of his 'business meetings', which she had no idea about what, or who he was talking to. Ever since she had fell in love and came to live with Vergil, she didn't know how he made a living, he would never tell her what he dealt with, and never wanted her to get near his office; she tried to make him talk, but to no avail, she knew very well how he acted towards this subject, she just knew he was very, but very wealthy so say the least.
Their story had been a rather strange get together. First he wasn't the one to talk nor express his feelings, and her, well, was shy but at the same time knew how to get to one's nerves, well Vergil's nerves. They actually met in a not so romantic place, a library. From a simple exchange of "Excuse me's and sorry's" (since Jennifer was quite clumsy), she came to end up pregnant and living with the blue eyed man; still she had many secrets to uncover. After almost two years of relationship she only knew his parents were long dead, and that he had a twin brother, which by the way wasn't one of his favorite subjects.
Well one of the biggest surprises was to find out she was pregnant, and the hardest task to tell the father.

Jennifer had been feeling strange since the last couple of days; something like the stomach flu, as well as a slight delay of her period.
'Maybe it's just my imagination, it can be a lot of things, not only pregnancy.', she would run this kind of mantra over and over again, trying to deceive herself from the most clear signs given by nature.
It was one of the rare times in her life that she felt afraid; afraid that a pregnancy could ruin her dreams with the man she loved.
She surely loved him, but still she didn't know if he felt the same way towards her. 'He surely loves me, if it wasn't true why would he live with me….but on the other hand he doesn't want children, nor want me around his work quarters…nor introduce me to his co-workers or friends…' the list went on, still she was afraid what he would tell her after hearing the truth. The moment they agreed to live together as a couple, he told her she wasn't to get pregnant, he never told her the reasons just that he didn't want any children and didn't want her near his office nor people he supposedly worked with. Even agreeing to his conditions she didn't have any idea why he wouldn't want her around, and as for children she would love to have many, especially with him; it was a dream many women had, and she wasn't an exception, still she sacrificed it to live with him. They would make it safe, well she at least used to be on the pill, and as everyone knows it, it wasn't totally safe, regarding children nor any diseases. Well it failed…The doctor confirmed, she was in fact pregnant.
She then arrived from the doctor, and thank God Vergil was engrossed in his paperwork so he didn't take notice she had been out alone(a thing that would anger him to no end).So she decided to go to her room, take a bath and wait for him, so she could tell him the news.

'Finally over', he thought as he ended part of his paperwork, already thinking about some sleep.
Vergil then locked the massive wooden door which had many mystical figures craved and headed to his personal's quarters.
He opened he door and found Jennifer looking thoughtfully outside, from their room's balcony.
"Wondering this early milady?"
"Yes, just thinking…", she then sighed and ruffed her beautiful mahogany hair heading to their bed at the same time.
"May I know the subject of your thoughts", he said knowing she wasn't the one to get all philosophic.
'Yeah, wondering about our child.' she surely couldn't answer that, still she had to tell him whether she liked it or not.
"I was just…just thinking how you would react…"
"React to what?", he cut her off; he knew it was something not pleasant, he just had to look at her face, it was like a mirror of her feelings; she couldn't hide them.
"To my pregnancy.", she then looked down as he fumed.
"Pardon me.", he was emotionless now, his mask took over.
"I'm pregnant Vergil."
"I've told you…"
"I know what you've told me, but it happened, I…I couldn't help it, I was on the pill and all, but…but.", she then broke down crying.
Vergil just paced back and forth, sighing and massaging his temple in a futile attempt to calm himself down. 'That's what you get Vergil, you knew you couldn't do that, but still you've done it…now you must face the consequences.'
"How did you find out?", his voice was emotionless.
"I went to the doctor and he only confirmed my suspicion."
"You went there alone?", now he was angry.
"Yes..", she replied silently.
He just gave her a hard stare.
"Vergil please…"
"I told you not to get pregnant, still here you are…then I ask you not to wander outside alone, yet you ignore me and do whatever you want."
"Sorry.", she was incredibly submissive on these situations, she feared being alone, alone ..all by herself again. It was a life she never wanted again…never be away from Vergil.
"Sorry won't make things any better.", he replied.
"We can work things out, it will be ok, a baby won't bother you so much…we can sleep on separate rooms…and money, well I can work."
Vergil laughed coldly, "You think only this will erase the mistake? Don't be foolish."
"Please Vergil."
"Stop that woman! I can't take your stupidity disgusts me.", he said as he slammed the door behind him leaving a crying Jennifer behind.
