Sonia was at a supermarket she was shopping for the food stuff at home,recently she did not have the time for shopping, she had been sad and gloomy ever since the misunderstanding she had with Adrien.
She kept on thinking about Adrien,she missed him a lot but each time she remember those pictures and then day she saw Adrien and Monica kissing at his office it kept on breaking her,she felt really angry and jealous, Adrien have been having feelings for Monica all this while and she had been a fool not to realise it.
“Hello Sonia”.
Sonia turned and then found Monica behind smiling at her.
What hell does she want?
Episode 34 : Moving Forward
“What do you want Monica?” Sonia asked harshly, Monica chuckles softly.
“Isn’t is obvious, I came here to shop as well” Monica said.
“We are not suppose to be talking to each other anymore, I never knew you are my enemy, you betrayed me,looking at your face right now makes me wanna beat the hell out of you” Sonia said through gritted teeth.
“Well it wasn’t my fault that Adrien fell in love with me and I also fell deeply for him too,I couldn’t resist him whenever he wanna make love to me,he gives me this joy I never had” Monica said trying to spice up Sonia’s anger which it worked.
Sonia moved closer to her and then pointed a finger at her face.
“Look stop telling me rubbish, you’re free to go to Adrien and do whatever you want with him,I don’t want to talk to you or look at this your disgusting face anymore, I never knew I took a devil as my friend” Sonia said angrily.
“Anyways I don’t wanna talk to you either, I came here to just shop for my baby’s stuffs” Monica said cheerfully,
“Baby stuffs?” Sonia muttered.
“Yes,I’m pregnant, and it’s Adrien child” Monica said proudly, Sonia staggered backward,she felt as if she had gone deaf the moment Monica Mentioned she is pregnant.
“You…..you’re pregnant?” Sonia stammered.
“Yes,I already told Adrien about it and you should have seen the look on his face,he felt so happy about the news”.
Monica said happily,Sonia did not notice when she gave Monica a resounding slap on the face.
“How dare you?” Sonia yelled then she rushed out of the supermarket with tears in her eyes.
Monica placed her hand on her red cheeks,she looked so angry.
“How dare she slap me” she said,then she smile “well it’s a good thing she knows I’m pregnant now”.
Sonia sat in the car and then placed her head on the steeling wheel,she was crying so heavily.
“Oh how can she be pregnant so soon,?why is all this happening” she weep.
“Why did Adrien do this to me after everything we’ve been through, doesn’t he love me anymore? What about the things we shared together, those memories we shared together don’t they matter to him anymore” she kept on complaining sadly, she was distracted by her ringing phone.
She looked at the caller and saw it was jadyen’s headmistress,why is she calling her? Is everything okey?
She quickly wipe her face before answering the call.
“Hello Mrs Cathy” Sonia said.
“Good day Mrs Sonia, please ma we would be needing your attention in the school”.
“Is everything alright?” Sonia asked worriedly.
“Jayden got involved in a serious fight” Mr Cathy said, Sonia gasped.
“What?”
“We would be needing you and your husband’s attention here in the school please”.
“Okey,I’ll be on my way now” Sonia quickly ended the call forgetting her worry and anger she quickly failed Adrien’s number.
Adrien picked the call immediately he saw her call,Sonia disclosed the news to him,he was so shocked.
“Okey my love I’ll be at the school in ten minute okey” he said.
“Ok” she said with tears in eyes before hanging up,she drove to the school in great speed.
Sonia rushed into the headmistress office and then found him sitting at a corner with his hair bow.
“Baby!” Sonia called him,jayden raised his head when he heard his mother’s voice.
“Mummy” he rushed up to her for an embrace.
She hugged him tightly and then pulled away and saw some bruises on his face.
“Who did this to you!” She asked.
“My classmate and I got into a face” he said with a frown on my face.
Sonia turned to look at Mrs Cathy who was seated watching them.
“How come jayden got into a fight?”
Not quite long Adrien rushed into the office,
“Daddy!” Jayden ran to hug him happily.
“Oh Junior”Adrien held him tightly,
” daddy I miss you so much”jayden said with teary eyes, Adrien frown immediately he saw bruises on jayden face.
“Who did this to you Junior” he asked.
“My classmate”.
“And why”
“He was insulting you and mummy daddy,he said my parent fought in the internet, he said my daddy is a cheat and my mummy is a loser” jayden said.
Adrien slowly looked at Sonia, she had had a frown on her face and she was not looking at him.
Episode 35 : New Beginnings
Adrien turned back to look at jayden and then let out a nervous smile.
“Why would your classmate say such a thing” he said.
“Mr martins can you please have your seat,we need to talk” Mrs Cathy said softly, jayden was escorted back to his classroom.
Sonia sat quietly beside Adrien, he looked at her pretty face which he missed a lot,its been almost a week he last saw her.
“As we all know jayden as very gentle kid,he got into a fight with his classmate who he said had been bullying him about you his parent” Mrs Cathy said.
“This suppose to be a family personal matter” Adrien muttered angrily.
“Yes it’s suppose to be but it’s not anymore, I’m not trying to be nosey here but whatever argument you guys has it’s been published on the internet, I can see that little Jayden is unaware about,but it will be best to resolve this issue maturely” Mrs Cathy advice.
Adrien sighed and then looked at Sonia who has been quite.
“Whatever is been published on the internet it’s not true,I don’t know how you will do it but I’ll like it if you can keep an eye on jayden,he may look like a gentle kid but he also have his angry side and it won’t be nice if he start fighting all the time each time he gets bully” Adrien inquired, Mrs Cathy nodded.
“Yes I understand you, I’ll try to do my part but you will have to yours too” she said.
Adrien smiled as he glanced at Sonia.
“Yes we will” he said.
“Thank you Mrs Cathy, we will be taking our leave now” Sonia said briefly then went out of the office.
Adrien also stood up and went after her.
“Sonia!”
She did not reply him until they got to the parking lot were he held her hand.
“Sonia please wait” he pleaded.
“What is it?” She asked taking his hand off her.
“What are we going to do about Jayden? it’s not a good thing he got involved in a fight” Adrien said.
“What do you want me do then?isn’t it obviously your fault? Oh were thinking I’ll want follow the Mrs Cathy advice of us coming back together? Hell no I’m never coming back to you Adrien” she said firmly.
“Please don’t say that my love”.
“Don’t call me your love,you’ve lost the right to call me that” she yelled at him.
“Monica told me she is pregnant now she’s carrying your baby,wow congratulation,I’m so happy for you Adrien this is good news, isn’t it” she said smiling while tears slowly came out of eyes.
“The baby is not mine…”
“Who are you trying to deceive huh”.
“I’m not deceiving you Sonia, I’m telling you the truth,you really don’t know who Monica is,she is best in twisting issue” he said,Sonia laughed bitterly.
“I can’t believe I got married to a cheat and a liar, Monica told me you love her and how you’ve been sleeping with her each time you get turn on,like I keep thinking if you’ve forgotten us,our memories, the love we share, how come you forgotten them all” she said as she kept crying.
“Have you forgotten I turned down so may suitors just because of you, I disobey my family just to be with you, I almost took my own like just to be your wife,but look at his you repay,you cheated on me with my best friend, a friend I took as a sister, do you think its funny?” She yelled at him,tears came out of his eyes as he watched her speak, he could see she was in so much pain.
“I thought you love me,me only, why did you have to do this to me Adrien why?” She whispers bitterly, Adrien moved to touch her.
“I still love you Sonia…..”
“Stop lieing please, I don’t even know what to say to you anymore” she said.
“Sonia please, we can still resolve issue, you need to trust me” he said,she chuckles.
“Trust? I don’t trust you anymore Adrien,I don’t, what’s the usefulness of a marriage when there is no trust”she said as she wiped her tears
” and talking about resolving this issue, I think I have a idea”she said ,Adrien looked at her with a bright eyes
