Claiming Back My Ex-Wife

ALEXA

I'm pregnant.

The pregnancy test said it all. I'm pregnant. I can't believe this. I took it this morning and it's said that I'm pregnant. I took three times and three of them are positive.

Finally, Elijah and I will be parents. Oh my god! I can't wait to tell him when he comes back. I bet his reaction is priceless. We've been waiting for this moment and god finally gave us. Thank you for this huge gift.

My life feels more perfect now. We're finally will be parents! I smile and walk out of the bathroom and heading to bed. I take my phone to call Elijah because I want to ask when will he come home.

I really need to make preparation before he comes home. I press the call and wait for him to pick up. It's going to voicemail. I frown at it but I just keep calling.

Voicemail again.

Again...

And...

Again...

After four times I call him, finally, he picks it up. "What?" I smile when I hear his voice.

"Hey baby, I miss you so much. It's been one week since you go to London." I said.

"What do you want?" He asks and his voice seems like he's in a hurry.

"I just miss you, Elijah and I want to ask you when will you comeback?" I ask and my heart feels a bit hurt when he didn't ask if I'm okay or anything.

"Hmm okay. I don't know maybe next week or next month, don't wait for me. I don’t have plans to go back soon. Anyways, I need to go bye."

Before I could say anything he just hangs up on me. Maybe he's in a hurry for his meeting. I can't blame him because of it his work. He works hard for our family and I need to understand it. It’s ok Alexa.

I pat my stomach. "It's okay baby, I will find a way to tell your father. We’re so excited to meet you," I smile then suddenly I heard the doorbell.

I stand up and go downstairs to look at who it is. I open the door and it shows Thea standing there with a smile on her face.

"Hey, Alexa." She greets me. "Hi," I said feeling weird because it's been a week since our last talk and that didn’t go well at all. I almost delete her number because I am so mad at her.

"Didn't you want to invite me in?" I step aside to let her in. We walk to the living room and sit on the couch. "Well... I know you still mad at me. So I'm here to apologize. I know I shouldn't say to your husband like that. I'm sorry.." She looks at me with a regret face. I stand up from my seat and go sit beside her. “Alexa?”

"You know, I'm sorry too because I kicked you out just like that," I said and she pulls me for a hug.

I hug her back. I miss her so much, to be honest. I still have a bit of feeling angry towards her but I let it slide since I am alone now and Elijah don’t know when he will coming home.

"I am suffering because I can't talk to you for the one whole week. You know, you're my one and only best friend that I know." She said after we break apart the hug. I smile at her.

Maybe I should tell her about the news I just found out this morning. I cannot keep a secret too long from her.

"I have something to tell you." Of course, I would tell her. "What it is?" She asks.

"Okay... First of all, don't freak out when I tell you."

"Okay okay just hurry up." She looks so excited to know what I'm going to tell her. "Alexa! hurry up."

"Okay... I'm pregnant." She looks surprised then a big smile appears on her face.

"Arghhhh! Oh my god! I'm going to be an aunt. OMG! OMG!" I chuckle at her reaction. Looking at her reaction like this, I'm thinking about how Elijah's reaction will be.

"I told you not to freak out, girl"

"How can I not? You're pregnant!" I smile at her. “I am going to be a rich and cool aunt to your child,”

"By the way, when did you know that you're pregnant?"

"This morning." She hugs me and then smiles. "I'm so so so so so happy for you, Alexa. I really am." She said. Just then, her phone ring.

"Wait a second. I’ll be right back," She stands up and goes to the kitchen to take that call. Maybe that's important that's why she didn't want me to hear it. After a few minutes, she walks in with a smile on her face.

"Sorry. It took quite long.." She takes a seat beside me again.

"Nah it's fine. Who's that? Your boyfriend?" I tease her.

"Ew, I don't have any okay. Don't ever think like that, Oh yeah, Alexa let's go and have lunch at the hotel today." She said.

"What for? I mean we can just go out lunch at one of our favourite restaurants. Don't waste money too much Thea."

"Awe Alexa you’re no fun. We have to celebrate that you're pregnant. Let's go." She said and I raised my eyebrows.

"What? Why are you looking at me like that?" She adds. "Let's goooo. This is the time where you need to use your husband’s money just like any rich wife do,"

"Okay, okay, but first I will need to change my clothes." She nodded her head and I walk upstairs to change.

I pick baby blue jeans and a white shirt to pair it with my nude pink cardigan. For my hair, I just let it down. I comb my hair to make it neater. I put mascara and lipstick.

I don't like to wear my make up too much because I prefer to look more natural. I spray some perfume then take my handbag. I take my cream colour pump then I'm ready.

I go downstairs to see Thea already standing at the door. "Let's go." She opens the door and we walk to her car. We talk and laugh on the way there. Its feel so good to hang out with my best friend. After a moment later, we finally arrive at the hotel to have our lunch. This is so random.

"Alexa, why don't we just stay here for one or maybe two days?" She asks when we walk inside the hotel.

"It's so spontaneous Thea, we don't have any spare clothes," I said and she chuckles.

"Pleaseeee... I want to hang out with you. We can buy new clothes to wear or we can wear the same clothes for 24 hours. Come on, It's not like we never have done it before. Oh why not we go shopping first?" She said excitedly.

“You know I can't say no to you when you did that. Fine... but I’m starving. Let’s go eat and then we can go shopping. ” I said. She mumbles something under her breath and I couldn’t catch up anything at all.
