Small Town Girl Story Chapter 7

I am so happy about this surprise soon I started crying and my mum and my friend hugged me and
trying to calm me down, I am thinking how nice it will be if Jack is here.

"Bella Congratulations," my parent said

"We decide to make this small baby shower for you, we know you may not be able to celebrate this
since you said you don't have a friend and we call Jack to inform him, maybe he can come to join this
but he said he is busy that he can't come. Please just enjoy yourself," my Mom said

"Thanks, mum" I said

Some people congratulate me and they gave gifts, the decoration is so nice, everything is in pink even
my dress is also in pink color but I don't have any idea that the surprise they are talking about will be a
baby shower, there are one big cake and a lot of small cupcakes with a different word on them, there
are a lot of pink balloons on the wall, with pink onesie on the wall with the word "mini mummy" on it. We
have a lot of fun and enjoy ourselves, later in the evening everybody leaves one by one, I thank my
parent, my brother, and my friend Sophia for all this surprise I really love it, I made a video call with
Annie and she is very happy but she is sad because she is not here with me.

I am in my room checking all the gifts with my mum, I get a lot of gifts that I don't even think I need to
buy anything again with the stuff Annie bought for me before she goes back, my mum help to pack
everything so that I can take them with me when I am going back.

I spend the rest of the week with my family happily, that I forget about the problem I have with Jack, I
extend my leave at work because I am enjoying my stay with them.

I am on my home, I am inside a cab now, taking me home, I spent 2 weeks with them I called my boss
and he said ok, that he understands. I really enjoy myself to the extent that I forget my problem with
Jack, I wish we could figure things out.



I am standing in front door knocking hopefully Jack will open the door because today is Saturday, he
will be at home but after like 10 minutes of knocking I decide to find my keys and open the door but as
soon as I open the door, I went back outside to check the apartment number maybe I entered the
wrong apartment but the key I have open the door so I am in the right place but the living room is like a
trash bin as if nobody has clean this house for like 3 months, I tried to call Jack but he did not answer
me, there is a lot of dirty dishes on the coffee table, on the kitchen counter and there are a lot of trash
bin bags that are supposed to be disposed of and there are shoes and clothes on the floor in the living
room and there are some shoes by the front door.

I don't know what to do I went to drop my luggage inside our bedroom but that is another living hell, the
bedroom is so smelling that I had to first throw up inside the bathroom and open the window, there is c
a lot of bottle of beers on the floor in the bedroom and a lot of dirty clothes on the floor, please did I use
more than 2 weeks with my parent or maybe I don't know the calculation of calendar. I tried to call Jack
on the phone but it is switched off, I tried several times but it is saying switched off, I don’t know what to
do, I am scared maybe something happens to him, I called his sisters but none of them find him, his
parent told me that maybe he went to sleep in his friend house, his parent ask me that what did I find at
home or maybe anything suspicious and I told them how smelly and stinking the whole apartment is
and they told me that maybe he has gone to sleep in his friend house because I should know by now
that Jack is so lazy that he can't do anything called house chores, maybe he can't handle the dirtiness
anymore. I end the call with his mum and change my cloth to get to work despite being pregnant and
jet lag.

I am so tired but I can't leave the house like this, so I start from the bedroom I first get the trash bag
and dispose of all the beer bottles and other alcoholic bottles, after that I remove all the clothes and
shoes on the floor and the take out bags and plate that inside and I remove the carpet because I can't
handle the smell of the carpet, is either I take it for dry cleaning or I throw it away, I remove the
bedsheet and the pillow cover, I sweep, scrub and mop the floor, I clean the bathroom and I went out to
the living room and I did the same after I finished that I head to the kitchen and also the same but there



are some times that I have to take rest like 10 minutes before I continue cleaning, after like 3 to 4 hours
of cleaning and get back inside and take rest I tried to call him but it is switched off when I check the
time it is almost 7 in the evening and I am very hungry.

After I finish eating, I decided to check the guest room maybe it is also dirty but to my surprise, Jack is
there sleeping on the bed and there are some alcohol bottles on the floor but wait, what made Jack into
drinking alcohol like this, yes he drinks before not like this. I decide to move closer to him and wake him
up but wow he stinks like a reel of alcohol but wake him and he opens his eye but when he saw me
and he started to say a lot of negative words and abusive word to me like "Hey bitch you have come
back, you are such bad luck, I should know that you are such a piece of bad luck when everything is
turning upside down for me since you never listen, I told you not to keep the pregnancy but you insist
on keeping the bastard, that is what makes me want to make more money but see now everything went
down the drain, get out idiot" after all that he said he slept off again, all that he said hurt me that I just
stand there crying and don't know what to do and I don’t understand what went down the drain, I wipe
my tears and try the clean the guest room while he is sleeping. Maybe he did not know what he is
saying maybe because of alcohol. I move closer to him to remove the dirty clothes that are on the bed
beside him but he turns around and slaps me.

"You and the bastard in your belly are bastards, both of you are bad luck" He stand up and grab my
hair tightly and slap me again

"Please Jack you are hurting me," I said to him crying and begging him to leave me

He curses me, calling bad names, he said if I have listened to him and abort the baby all this will not
happen. He leaves me and told me to get out but he did not tell me what happens to him. I went inside
the bedroom and cry my eye out till I fall into a deep slumber.

I wake up to some noise and did not know where it is coming from, I stand up and see what is
happening and I check the time and it is 8 in the morning, but when I get inside the living room, it is



Jack that is talking on the phone but I decide to leave him and went inside the room I say my morning
prayer and went inside the bathroom to fresh up. I look at my face in the mirror and I saw a black spot
below my eyes and another big black spot above my brow.

After another crying session in the bathroom, I take shower and went back inside the living room and
meet Jack inside the living room drinking and I snatch the bottle from his hand.

"Jack what is happening to you, why are you behaving like this, when I get home yesterday all the
house is in a mess, and this morning you have started drinking which you did not do before, what is
happening"

"Shut up you bitch, you are all the cause of this, if you have not decided to keep this baby, what will
happen will never happen, idiot" snatching the bottle from me and drink

"Jack please stop insulting me and what has my baby has a concern with what happens to you"

"Ok you want to hear, I will tell you bitch" He moves closer to me and grab me by my hair and push me
to sit on the chair,

"Please don't hurt me, think of my baby," I said to him and he raises his hand to slap me again but he
looks at me and lowers his hand.

"I told you that I invested in some business or like want to invest in the business so I put all the money I
have into the business but that is before you said you are pregnant but when you said you are pregnant
and you said you want to keep the baby so I borrow money from my boss and put it on the business
since the baby is on the way and I told you to resign from your work, but I later know that we are
scammed, the company we want to do business with is already bankrupt so they use our money to pay
some of their debt in the bank and there is no evidence because the document they issued to use is
fake. He said tears flowing from his eyes



"WE? How come you are WE? I don't understand"

"Not only me, me and my friend and we met some other people there the day" he said with tears

"I am really sorry about that but what has my baby has to do with the business?"

"If you do not decide to keep the baby, I won't borrow more money to invest, if you had listened to me,
all this will not be happening, now my salary is no not enough because I have some debt to pay to 60%
of my salary will be going to be debt I owe," he said

"Excuse me, Jack, I am really sorry about your loss but first you did not tell me anything about the
business not until recently, second me and my baby did not have anything to do with you borrowing
money, third it is your mistake that you supposed to find out about the business you want to do very
well before investing on it, fourth don’t put your mistake or your fault on me and my baby, we
…………….." He smashes the bottle on the floor and breaks into pieces

"Any more word from your mouth and you will regret it," he said and went out

I just stand there like a statue for about 10 minutes not knowing what to do. I stand up and clean up the
broken bottles and sit in the living room and I started crying and thinking how my life turn out like this,

Soon my phone ring and it is my Mom calling and I pick up, she ask about my baby and I told her we
are fine, she also told me that my brother will send me the pictures of the baby shower to me I said ok
and we talk more and then hang up.

I did not mention to her how Jack treat me today because I don't want them to worry about me.
