Chapter 10
"Don't you feel a little guilty about breaking up a marriage? A family?"
I smile. "I didn't break up anything. Kyle is in love with me, he always has and always will be. He never should've married her in the first place."
"The fact is, he did marry her and they have a child."
I shrug. "The love wasn't there. The passion wasn't there. I'm pretty sure he only married her because he thought he would never see me again. If I never left, we would've been married and had a family."
"I really think you really took things too far."
I laugh. "I took things too far?" I shake my head. "Rebecca started this, I just finished it. All she had to do was leave Kyle alone and let us to be together and raise our baby."
2 months earlier
I'm now 12 weeks along, and my "morning" sickness is starting to die down a bit. I seriously don't get why they even call it morning sickness since it lasts all day and night. I finally have enough strength to go to the gym again with Wendy. We're both on elliptical machines.
"Are you sure you're feeling up to this?" Wendy asks me. "You're still in the very early stage of your pregnancy."
I nod. "I'm fine. My doctor said exercising is fine as long as I'm not lifting anything to heavy. I'm not lifting, so I'm good." I smile.
"I just still think you should take it easy. Maybe you should take a yoga class, or even better, we can do that at home." Wendy suggests.
I laugh. "Are you to stop me from coming to the gym?"
She sighs. "Yes Bebe, at least go to another gym, please?"
"Why should I?"
"You know why. Rebecca comes here to work out now." She reminds me.
I make a face. "So what? It's a free country and we can work out at the same gym and act like civilized adults, can't we?" I shrug again. "Besides, what are the odds of me running into her here again?"
Wendy points at the door. "Pretty good, considering that she just walked in."
I look over and see that Rebecca has stepped in once again with Annie. I have to admit that the gym is doing her wonders as it looks like she may have lost a few pounds.
"Come on B, let's go!" Wendy whispers trying to nudge me towards the door.
I shake my head. "Absolutely not! I'm not going to leave the gym just because she's here! Fuck that bitch!"
"I just want to avoid any dr-" Wendy is cutoff by the sound of Rebecca's voice.
"Stupid BITCH!" Rebecca yells out as she's running towards me. Before I even have a chance to react, I'm knocked off of the elliptical and onto the floor. Rebecca is standing over top of me punching me repeatedly. "You trifling SLUT! How dare you sleep with my husband!"
I try to block her punches. "Get off of me!" I cry out.
"I want to fucking kill you, you miserable tramp!"
"Rebecca, stop! That's enough!" I hear Annie tell her.
"Yeah, she's pregnant!" Wendy adds. It's about time she stepped in to defend me.
"Break it up!" I hear Rob, the owner of the gym, yell out. Suddenly, I can feel Rebecca being moved away from me as Rob and Wendy kneel down beside me.
"Are you okay B?" Wendy asks me.
"Hell no!" I reply angrily. "That crazy bitch just attacked me for no fucking reason!"
Wendy helps me stand up. "She had a very good reason Bebe…" She whispers to me. She looks at Rob. "Sorry about this Rob, Annie and I will take care of this."
"Good," Rob tells her, "I don't need this shit in my gym! I would hate to ban you ladies from coming back here." He walks off.
I wipe my mouth and notice there's now blood on my hand. "Are you kidding me?" I look at Rebecca who's now glaring at me. "I'm fucking bleeding you sick bitch!"
Rebecca tries to move towards me, but Annie holds her back. "You're lucky that's all I did, you home wrecking whore!"
"Regardless of how you feel about her, she is pregnant." Annie reminds her. "You can't attack her! You could hurt the baby."
"Thank you Annie." I tell her.
"SHUT UP!" Rebecca yells as she tries to attack again.
"What is wrong with you?" I ask her. "Why don't you act like an adult? Act like you're someone's mother…which you are! You're acting like a wild banshee!"
"I should rip your fucking head off!" Rebecca yells.
"Bebe, let's just go." Wendy whispers to me as she grabs my arm.
"Yes, get that disgusting tramp out of my sight!" Rebecca demands.
I glare at her. "Disgusting tramp?" I shake my head and laugh. "You know what? You're not even worth arguing with. I get it, I really do."
Rebecca glares at me. "Excuse me?"
"Kyle is a great man. If I lost him the way you did, I would be upset and want to lash out at the other woman too. However, I'm really not the one you should be angry with. Kyle isn't the one you should be angry with."
Rebecca raises her eyebrow. "What the hell are you talking about Bebe?"
"Your constant nagging while he's working late, your jealousy of all of his assistants, telling him he doesn't spend enough time with his daughter, but having the nerve to beg him to have another baby." I chuckle. "Not to mention your obsession with this weight loss...thing you're doing. Honey, I honestly don't know how he put up with you for this long."
"What are you saying?"
"I'm saying, as far as losing Kyle to me…you have no one to blame but yourself."
Rebecca looks down. "I was a good wife to him…"
"Oh sweetie, I know you tried. You should've never stopped practicing medicine."
She looks at me. "What?"
"Kyle told me he didn't start pulling these all nighters until AFTER you quit your job to be a stay at home mom. Not to mention, the fact that you had to take out another student loan to pay for your Master's degree. Since you're not working, who did you think was going to pay back that loan sweetie? How were your bills going to get paid? He had to get more clients and contracts to be able to take of your family, that's why he was pulling all nighters! Of course your selfish ass never appreciated any of that. All you did was bitch and moan about him working late and not wanting another baby." I smile and rub my belly. "I really think a thank you is in order though.
"Bebe…" Wendy shoots me a warning look.
"It's true." I explain. "If it wasn't for you Rebecca, I wouldn't have been blessed with this little bundle of joy I'm carrying." I rub my belly and smile.
Rebecca glares at me. "Whatever Bebe. You know, you may be pregnant with Kyle's baby, but I'm still his wife so you're not going to have this happily ever after with him."
I smile. "We'll just see about that now, won't we?" I look at Wendy. "Let's go Wendy." Wendy and I head towards the door.
"This isn't over, BITCH!" I hear Rebecca yell to me.
"That's what you think…" I mumble.
6 weeks later
Wendy and I are in the waiting area at my OBGYN office. I'm having my 18 week check up and if all goes well, I'll be able to find out the gender of my baby. I look at the door every time I hear it beep hoping that it's Kyle coming through the door. I sigh loudly.
"B, face it, he's not coming…" Wendy tells me gently.
"He has to come! This is his baby too. I texted him the information last night."
"He didn't even respond."
"But according to my phone, he read it at 8:55 pm so I know he saw it." I show her the text message.
She shrugs. "That doesn't mean anything. He told you from the beginning, he doesn't want anything to do with you."
"This isn't completely about me, it's about our child."
"Bebe Stevens!" The nurse calls me to come back.
I look at Wendy. "Are you going to come with me?" I ask.
She smiles. "Of course, that's why I'm here!"
We follow the nurse. She checks my weight and blood pressure and then takes us to a room. She hands me a gown and asks me to remove my clothing from the waist down. "The doctor will be with you momentarily." She tells me just before she leaves.
I change and then pull out my phone. "I'm going to text Kyle again, he needs to be here!" I tell Wendy.
"Just let it go Bebe…"
"No way!" I text Kyle, letting him know that the doctor is on her way in. "He better come." Just then, there's a knock on the door. "Come in."
"Hi Ms. Stevens." Doctor Martin comes in. "It's good to see you again, let's see how everything is going with your baby." She checks the heartbeat and my measurements. "Everything seems great. Would you like to know the sex of your baby?"
"Of course!" I tell her.
She puts some gel on me and turns on the ultrasound. She points to the screen. "These are your baby's legs, and this is the crotch…congratulations, you're having a baby boy!" She smiles.
"Awe, congrats B!" Wendy squeals and hugs me. I began to tear up. "What's wrong?"
I shake my head. "Nothing…" I say in a whisper.
The doctor prints out a few copies of the sonogram. She hands them to me and smiles. "Keep eating right and staying stress free. You're doing well so far. I'll see you next month." She leaves.
I start crying as soon as she leaves. "I'm having a little boy…and Kyle didn't even show up. He doesn't care Wendy…"
She puts her hand on my shoulder. "He's married and he told you he doesn't care. I know that hurts your feelings, but you have to let this go. Focus on you and your baby boy. That's what's important now."
"I'm not letting shit go! Kyle got me pregnant and I'll be damned if he's going to skip out on his responsibility! He will be a part of our lives one way or another!" I wipe my eyes.
"Come on, you need to relax and let this anger go." She tells me. I nod. I'm not letting go of my anger. I know what the problem is and I know how to take care of it…
Later that evening
I head over to Kyle's house. I know he's not expecting me to show up here, but too bad! I ring the doorbell and Rebecca answers it. She rolls her eyes when she sees me.
"Kyle isn't here!" She says as she tries to shut the door. I grab the door and push it back open and walk in. She closes the door. "What the hell are you doing at my house? I told you Kyle isn't here."
"I didn't come here to see Kyle…"
She raises her eyebrow. "Then why are you here?"
"I'm here to see you."
"Why?"
"I had a doctor's appointment today. I'm having a boy!"
"I don't give a fuck!"
"Kyle didn't show up! It's all your fault!" I shove her.
She catches herself before she falls. "So you came to pick a fight with me because Kyle didn't show up to your stupid appointment?"
"You did something to make him not show up, you spiteful bitch!"
"First of all, keep your voice down! Kyra is upstairs sleeping. Second, I didn't do shit! I told you that you weren't going to get a happily ever after with Kyle! He's my husband, we're a family and it's going to stay that way. You and your bastard child are not going to break us up!" She points at the door. "Now get the hell out of my house and DON'T come back!" She pushes me towards the door.
I push her back. "Don't push me! If you want a fight, I'll give you one!"
She laughs. "I don't need to fight you, I've kicked your skinny ass before and I can do it again! Besides, you're pregnant. Grow the hell up and think about your baby!"
"You got lucky because you caught me off guard! Besides I can take you out without harming my child…"
She rolls her eyes. "Whatever, just get out!"
"I'm not leaving until I'm finished with you!" I start choking her. "Die you little bitch! I told you, I'm going to have Kyle! I'm willing to do whatever it takes to get him even if that means eliminating the competition!" I continue choking her and her face is turning bright red and she gasps for air. "You couldn't just end your marriage with some dignity! You couldn't let Kyle and me raise our son together!"
Rebecca then kicks me in the stomach. I release my grip and grab my stomach. "You crazy bitch! You could've killed me!"
"You could've hurt my baby!" I exclaim rubbing my stomach. I look down at my belly. "Don't worry baby, I'm not going to let this nut job hurt you…"
"I'm calling the police!" She turns away. I take off my shoe and hit her in the back of head with it as hard as I can. She immediately falls to the ground.
"No one is calling the police today!" I hit her in the head again. I notice she doesn't move. Oh shit! What have I done? I nudge her with my foot. "Rebecca?" No response, I nudge her again. "Wake up!" I've got to get out of here! I turn to leave when all of a sudden…
"Mommy?" I turn around and see Kyra coming down the stairs.
"Hi sweetheart!" I walk over to her. "I'm your Aunt Bebe. Your mommy is taking a nap right now. She wants me to take you to the park to play. Do you want to go to the park?" Kyra nods. "Great!" I extend my hand to her. "Come on, let's get in the car." I lead her to my car and strap her in. "I'll be right back sweetie. I left something inside."
"Okay…" She responds timidly.
I head back in the house and drag Rebecca's heavy ass into the kitchen by the oven. I see a pot on the stove. I grab the pot and fill it up with water and turn the stove on high. I put a pot holder right on the burner. "That should do it!" I tell myself just as I walk out. I get in the car and turn towards Kyra. "Time for the park!" I smile as I quickly pull off…
