Billionaire’s Lost Angel

Third person P. O. V

At City hospital………..

Lotus was sitting outside the chamber of the gynecologist waiting for her turn. Last week she came to know about her pregnancy. She got pregnant by that night but she didn’t know who was the man that night. Everything about that night is like a blurry nightmare to her. She knew that everything was Lilly’s plan and only Lilly knows who was that man. But Lotus didn’t want to ask her sister about that rapist. Neither did she want to keep this baby. Whoever this crime partner of Lilly was, he couldn’t be a good man. No gentleman will be agreed to spend a night with someone else’s bride on their wedding night.

“The father of the baby must be a perverted rapist or a criminal. God knows how many girls he had raped. I can’t give birth to a rapist’s child,” Lotus thought to herself. She was lost in her thought when the nurse called her name.

“Miss Kent please come with me the doctor is waiting for you.”

Hearing the nurse, Lotus stood up. Her knuckles were white due to holding her purse so hard. With shaky steps, she went inside the doctor’s chamber.

Lotus P. O. V

I went out of the hospital. What the doctor said is still ringing in my ear. When I came here I was determined to abort my pregnancy but after the conversation with the doctor now I am confused.

FLASHBACK

“Hello, Miss Kent I am your Gynecologist for today, Dr. Lopez. Please have a seat,” said a young lady when I entered the chamber of the gynecologist. She was a very young doctor may be about 2 to 3 years older than me. The glasses on her eyes made her more mature than her age. I sat in front of her.

“Hello, Doctor you can call me Lotus,” I said to her and she smiled.

“Okay, Lotus you can also call me Natasha. Now tell me how can I help you?” she asked with a warm smile. By the warmness of her voice, you can say that she is not only a good doctor but also a good person to whom you can open your heart undoubtedly.

“I am here for an aa-abortion,” I stuttered while saying the reason for which I came here.

For a moment, I saw sadness in her eyes then it again replaced with warmness.

“Okay let’s have a check-up of the condition of your pregnancy then we will discuss the next step.” With that, she stood up from her chair and motioned me to follow her. We went to the adjoining room with her chamber. This room has a USG machine with a big monitor and a bed.

I laid down on the bed after wearing the patient’s gown as instructed by Natasha. She then wore gloves and applied some gel to my belly. After that, she moved some light-like thing on my belly and turned on the monitor connected to the machine.

“Look there this machine shows the image of the fetus and its condition. By examining the monitor I can see that you are nine weeks pregnant and the fetus is healthy and growing well. And I can also hear its heartbeat ………” suddenly Natasha stop talking and looked at the monitor intently. I can see she is tense with something.

“What happened, Natasha?” I asked her impatiently.

“You are having twins Lotus. See there are two dots there” with that she pointed at the monitor.Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

I looked at the dot she pointed to. I can’t see two dots maybe I am not a medical expert that’s the reason but I knew she was saying the truth. I just nodded at her. Then she closed the monitor and cleaned my belly with tissue and left the room. I sat there on the bed for five minutes not knowing what to do. After 5 minutes, I got changed into my clothes and went to Natasha’s chamber. After sitting on the chair I looked at her. She said nothing but gave me a glass of water. I gulped down the water in one go.

“Lotus, as a doctor whatever you want to do with your pregnancy I have to support you. But as a woman or as a friend I would suggest you give it a second thought. Whatever difficulties you have cannot be bigger than two lives. Please think carefully and if your mind doesn’t change then we will go for the abortion,” Natasha told me that while holding my hand.

Knock… knock…..

Someone knocked on the door. We both looked at the door and the nurse entered.

“Doctor your cousin Mr. Robinson is here with his younger sister,” The nurse said to Natasha.

“Tell them to wait a bit” replied Natasha.

“I will take my leave then. Thanks, Natasha,” I said and stood up.

“Please, think about what I said Lotus,” she said to me. I nodded with a smile and left her room.

“Call Peter in,” I heard Natasha saying to the nurse.

END OF FLASHBACK

I went directly to my apartment as I took a leave today for my medical check-up. I was feeling really hungry so I made myself some bacon and pasta. After eating I laid back on the couch and turned on the TV. There was some reality show going on a channel but my mind was still repeating what Natasha said. I’m pregnant with twins. Suddenly my phone rang from the bedroom. I went back to my bedroom to check my mobile. It was showing an unknown number was calling me.

“Who can call me at this time?” I said to myself and received the call.

“Hello, is this Lotus Kent?” asked that person from the other end of the call. It was a female voice.

“Yes, I am. Who is this?” I asked her back.

“Hey, Lotus it’s Natasha here. Your gynecologist, remember?” she asked me.

“Oh yes, Natasha. I remember but why are you calling me? Is there anything wrong with my report?” I asked her worriedly cause doctors never called patients directly if it isn’t something serious.

“Don’t worry there is nothing wrong with your report. I just wanted to ask you, can we have coffee together? I know the place that has the most delicious latte in the town,” she replied more accurately asked.

I thought for a moment and then said yes to her. We discussed the time and ended the call. Then she texted me the address of the café we are going to meet in the afternoon.

Natasha’s P. O. V

I was waiting for Lotus at our decided place. I called her because I wanted to talk with her about her abortion. I didn’t want her to abort her babies. I was trying to talk with her in my chamber but my cousin Peter came there with his stepsister. Peter’s mom and my mom were sisters. His mom died due to cancer when he was only 7 years old. My mother took care of him then for 2 years until his father remarried. His stepmother didn’t want us to be in their house so my mother broke all ties with them. But we still shared a good bond as he was of the same age as me. His step-sister Emily had some problems with her period. I checked her and prescribed some medicine. She is a cute girl, unlike her mother. After they left I called Lotus and told her to meet me for coffee.

When I was thinking about how to persuade Lotus she came in front of me. This girl always gives me a family vibe. I don’t know why but I feel so protective of her.

” Hey, Natasha? Hope you are not waiting for a long time?” she asked with concern while taking the seat opposite of me.

“No, I often came here after finishing my duty in the hospital. So it’s not a problem if you are a little late,”I replied to her.

“You are so sweet!” she exclaimed and I laughed at her cuteness.

“What will you have? I’m having a latte and orange cake,” I told her.

“I think I will have black coffee and chocolate cake.”

“Pregnant women shouldn’t drink black coffee. You can try latte it’s their specialty.”

“Okay as you say Doc”

With that, we both started laughing. After placing the order I started the topic for which we came here.

“Lotus, I know that I am a total stranger to you and I don’t have any right but trust me, I want to help you. You are like a little sister to me which I never had. I can feel there is a heavy burden on your heart. I want to share it with you. Please will you share with me the reason you want an abortion?” I asked her.

Lotus P. O. V

My eyes became wet hearing Natasha’s words. I could feel how genuine she was. She meant every word she said it was obvious by her eyes. Not like my step-sister Lilly who was always double-faced. Coincidentally, my and Natasha’s eyes were the same in color. I think with her, I can share my life story. So, I told her everything from the beginning till now. I was amazed by her patience. She never said a word and listened like a true friend. After telling her everything, I was feeling much relieved. Because not even my father listened to me but Natasha did.

“Lo, I can relate to your life. You know the same thing happened with my mom. She accidentally got pregnant with me but she is a brave woman she never gave up. She gave birth to me alone. After my birth, she found her true love and got married. And that man gave me his name without any hesitation. Now I have a complete family,” Natasha shared her mother’s life with me and I felt so proud of her mom.

“But Natasha my family thinks that I am a bad woman. If I give birth out of wedlock they would think I am sleeping around with men. Also, what will my colleagues think about me? What will I say to my child about his/her father?” I told her my concerns.

“Lady, first of all, you should correct your word it will be children, not a child. You are carrying twins remember? Secondly, the family that disowned you without listening to your side of the story was never your family. These babies will be your family. They will never leave you or judge you,” she explained to me and it was true. There will be no one like my children.

“I think you are right. I have lost faith in love but I have to get revenge on those who stabbed me in my back. My children will be my support on this journey. I will give birth to them,” I said to her with teary eyes. She also started crying with me.

“Thanks a lot, Lotus for agreeing with me,” she said to me.

“No, thanks to you for being there with me at the darkest time like a true friend,” I thanked her though I know no thanks will be enough for her motivation to me.

“Don’t cry it will affect the children. Be happy always,” with that she wiped my tears.

“Miss Natasha Lopez, will you be my friend and the godmother of my babies?” I asked her dramatically. She burst into laughter.

“You know what Lo? I was thinking about the same.” She said while hugging me.

“We have many things in common,” I said to her and she nodded.

“Now let’s go I have to make your diet chart and check-up schedules. Also, we have to go shopping for my godchildren,” she was so excited that made me excited too about my babies.

“Don’t you think it is too early to do the shopping for them?” I asked her while exiting the café.

“Nope, do you have any idea how many things you will need for two babies? Without me what will you do?”

She was right without her what would I do? For the first time, I was feeling what a true friend means in our life. I am so happy to have a friend like her. All thanks to my babies.

Yes, MY BABIES.
