"You know what happened after that, probably the most heartbreaking and painful days of my life..." Connie reminded him.
"I am pregnant!" Connie told him nervously! She had hoped, he pregnancy was going to change him as a person. Make him a better person...make him love her..make him stop raping her...
"You're what?" He asked not able to believe what she had just told him.
"I am pregnant with your child Jerome...I mean Jacob." He said.
"No you can't be!" He shouted. "I don't want the child! Get rid of it! Now!" He demanded.
"But I want to keep it!" She said as she cried. "It's my child and he or she deserves to have a life!"
He go closer to her and held her by her face, pressing forcefully on her cheeks. "Don't argue with me Connie!" He warned. "I told you to get rid of the baby!"
The next day, he took an unwilling Connie to have a termination. He waited outside whilst Connie went inside for the process to be completed. She came out, half an hour later mad he drove them back to is house where he kept her locked. She wasn't allowed to leave and he lied to the hospital, saying Connie had moved to a different place."
Several days went by and Connie became sick! Jacob called the doctor and upon checking, he realised that Connie was still pregnant! She had faked her termination! She was still 3 months pregnant!
When Jacob found out, he become really furious. "I told you to get rid of the baby but you refused!" He began hitting her on her stomach! Punching her in attempt to get rid of it!
"Please leave me Jacob!" She begged. "You are hurting me." She sat on her bed crying, begging Jacob to stop but it only made it worse. He never listened to her!
"You disobeyed me!" He shouted! "You lied to me! So face the consequences...suffer!" He added and as he hit her body continuously.
He left her and locked the room. She was all alone! No one to help her.
Connie lay helpless on the bed covered with a pool of her blood. She has lost...lost her baby...lost the battle she was fighting.
Suddenly, everything went dark...
The doctor arrived the next day so see her still covered in blood.
"I am sorry but there is nothing more we can do."
Connie began to cry after hearing those words. She had lost something precious..something that would have finally given her hope!
It has to end today! She could no longer bare the pain she had been through!
"Help me!" She said. "Please help me."
"The doctor helped me and I left Jacob...hoping I wasn't going to see you again! Hoping the bad memories would soon vanish but I was wrong! Seeing you made remember what happened to me! What you did to me!"
Connie fell on the floor crying her heart out! She has to relive all of that and it was too painful to bare! Jacob sat down next to her and pulled her closer to him. "I am sorry Connie...I am truly sorry!" He said tears streaming down him face too...he can never forgive himself!
