Arranged Marriage: To Hear Your Voice

192 Euphoria and Breakdown

Few days earlier, Sabrina feels like she's over eating. She doesn't want to get fat before their anniversary comes and their second honeymoon getaway. Her breast was swollen and she gets tired easily and sleepy so she took days off from work. Their honeymoon is in two days.

Her mood swings was extremely annoying. She just wished that Gabriel wouldn't get mad at her for not satisfying him. Then she thought of something. Is she pregnant? Her heart races as she grab her purse and went to the garage and took one of the cars. She drove to the nearest pharmacy and buy lots of pregnancy test kit.

She then went back home and takes the test. Ten kinds of pregnancy test lined on the table. Then just in few seconds all of them shows two red lines. She couldn't help but to almost jump. She now has a present for her husband.

She immediately schedule a meeting with her doctor. She was happy that she couldn't take the euphoria. So she made herself pretty and drove carefully to the clinic. The result was positive and it was healthy. She was also healthy and the baby has a strong grip.

She took the papers and drive to the bookstore to find wrappings and other stuffs so she can start making a gift for her hubby.

Sabrina was so excited that she couldn't take it. She wanted to run around but she remembers she is pregnant and she rubbed her stomach. She called Gabriel because she was in a very great mood.

"Hey baby." Gabriel mutter though he was in the middle of a meeting.

"Hey, guess what? I am making dinner. Come home early."

"Okay. I will be with you soon. What do you want for me to buy along the road?"

"Uh… buy me yogurt and…" She check the fridge. "We don't have any cake here so—buy me dark chocolate cake… and strawberry."

"I am noting it…" Gabriel grumble. She then check the cabinet.

"Can you buy me anything—Japanese food?" She asked. "Oh, forget I'll just call for delivery."

"I'm sending one to you. Right now. They don't deliver in our area."

Sabrina almost smack her face. Right. Their villa is quite isolated.

"Are you okay, love?"

"Yeah. Come home early. I am making something special." She grins.

"Okay. Love you."

Sabrina receive a call from EPUA. She went to her office and check everything for the report. She calls her grandfather to give him good news. About Francisco. But he wasn't answering so she call the landline of the mansion in the US.

"Hello. Is this the delivery service? I have been waiting for the call." That voice again. Sabrina was stunned.

Sabrina was so shocked hearing the voice. She suddenly didn't know what to do. She sat down on the floor and fold her legs as she rock herself trying to think deep. She has to remember it. She pull her hair because it feels like breaking. She heard that voice—she knows that voice.

"No… this isn't true." She mutter to herself just to comfort herself. "She's dead. It's not true."

Gabriel was excited to go home early. He was about to buy a cake for her when his phone rings. It was Sabrina. The background sounds like she's in the crowd.

"Brina? Honey?"

"Gabby…" Her voice was shaking and in a rush. "I have to see grandpa. I'll be home soon."

"Right now?" He was confused. "But he's in America." He said.

"Yes. I have to see him. I'll be home soon. I love you."

"Brina…" Then the call ended. He was puzzled and frozen in his position staring down at his phone.

He was still in thought as he went home and found the kitchen empty but the ingredients are there and it seemed like she was trying to keep herself busy and get ready for dinner. What happened? To his curiosity he went to the bedroom to find clue. Then he sat down on the bed as he pull his tie still in thought.

What's the rush to see her grandpa? Gabriel tries to call her but he can't call. Her phone is off.

"Brina… you are killing me." He mutter. Then he remember her reaction after a call from her grandfather. She doesn't look like herself. It look like she's in her PTSD. He hold his chest where his heart is located. It was indeed killing him not knowing what's hurting her. It hurts him seeing her that way. "Baby, call me…" He mutter and then he send her lots of messages.

Sabrina landed in America and she directly contact her men and demand for a car. She drove her car to the villa. She was restless and she couldn't sleep or eat. She could only drink. Soon she arrives at the gate. The guards are new and she show them her I.D.

"Is my grandpa home?" She asked.

"No ma'am. He left two hours ago and will be back soon." The guard smiled at her. She nodded as she drove her car to the driveway.

She starts hearing that voice again. Laughing. Then she turn around to see a woman, tall, slender, her hair falls perfectly and she looks free. She's playing with the dogs laughing. She look up at her and their eyes met. Their eyes are almost identical.

Sabrina couldn't move as she stare at the reflection of her mother. She just stare at her blankly but deep inside she's breaking slowly. This is just a dream. She said to herself. My mother is dead.

Anastasia's heart pounded as she see her daughter. She tear up and her hands shake as she slowly strode toward her. Sabrina was frozen on her position. Anastasia has been longing for her. She wanted to hug her baby and kiss her. Her breathe was erratic as she sobbed and strode to Sabrina.

"You are dead." Sabrina said. Her voice is dangerous. Anastasia stop from coming closer to her. "You are dead." She said again and again and again.

Anastasia's heart breaks seeing her daughter in that condition. Of course she would be surprise and heartbroken. It wasn't her plan after all.

"Sabrina!" Ezekiel call. "Anastasia go back inside." He demanded.

Sabrina stay still staring at Anastasia.

"Dad, my baby." Anastasia pleaded as she cries. Sabrina was breaking into pieces.

Though it also pain Ezekiel seeing Sabrina slowly shattering, he remains stubborn.

"You betray me." Sabrina said those words into Ezekiel's eyes. Pearls of tears falls down from her eyes to her cheek. "You tricked me."
