Cruel World

Chapter 20: chap19

Sarah

'oh, my ...Lisa, I can't tell how much you make me happy today...this is the best news so far I have ever got...After so much pain and sadness that my family has been gone through this news is the biggest and the happiest news of my life.'

Roma hugged Lisa and Tom when they announced they are pregnant during dinner...Sarah was standing behind them because her days has come not to sit at the dining table with them as Mr grey has gone for another business trip...she is waiting for the orders just like old time.

Sarah was happy for Lisa and Tom ...she is really as Lisa and Tom always wanted a kid of their own and have been trying for years. A little child again will be brought to this home after a few months but the reaction Roma is giving to this news is like this is the first child of the Grey family...and it hurts...that Ava never got that kind of love and not even in her time of pregnancy she was treated like that...well she was treated worse when she was laying on the floor waiting for theo to whip her with belt ...then she gives the breaking news about her pregnancy..and also how everyone was disgusted by this news...But Lisa pregnancy was the happiest moment for the Grey family even Theo looks so happy by this news ...Sarah wishes Theo show this kind of mood to her daughter know who is terribly ignored by her family members.

Lisa and Tom were also looking happy and excited Tom said 'Mom I'm happy that we can see this smile on your face after so many years...actually we know this about like two months ago (Tom look at Lisa to confirm it ) but first we were not sure then other stuff happens (He give a look to Sarah) today doctor gives us this good news so we were excited to share this now' Tom kissed Lisa on her forehead and act like a happy soon to be becoming a father

Theo also smiles and said 'Im so happy for your guys..many many congratulations. I hope this baby brings lots of happiness and good luck in our home..which we need a lot'

Sarah's heart was breaking little by little for her small Ava.

Is her daughter is not considered to be bringing happiness? Hell, no one ever saw Ava face properly till now like she is a bad luck ...Her beautiful Ava is growing so fast daily and everyone is missing that but Sarah control her tears and say to her that at least she can see every moment of her daughter and she will be happy on that

Roma then jabbed Sarah indirectly 'Well today I'm very happy... becoming a grandmother finally..who would have thought that. Lisa, now you have to take of yourself and I'm going to take you the best gynecologist in the city ...and secondly try to stay away from negative people..' Roma directly glared at Sarah..but Sarah did not say anything she just look down and control her tears but saw Theo was looking at her strangely

Tom broke the awkward moment and said 'Yeah mom is right, Lisa I was also thinking that you take a leave from work'

Lisa gives him an unbelievable look 'Are you serious...I'm two months pregnant not 9 months...

Theo also said in humor's ''bro she is right...you are acting like a control freak..It's too early to take a leave ''

Roma shakes her head and then said 'Lisa I think you should take a break it's not like your working anywhere else it's our company you can join it anytime you want I don't want anything to happen to my grandchild'

Lisa laughs and said 'Mom I love you that you are so worried but no need ..my pregnancy is normal, doctors have already given me a thumbs up...I mean it's not like Sarah pregnancy even she was also doing all work at the end of her pregnancy ...' But Lisa stopped when she realized that she brought Sarah topic into the discussion which changes the whole happy atmosphere of the table into tense...Theo also stop in the midway of eating and looked at Sarah

Roma got angry and said 'Lisa I just told you not to even think about negative vibes and people...That girl and her so-called pregnancy is nothing to discuss here. ( Roma pass a disgusting look t Sarah) you are giving me the happiness of my life by making me a grandmother...that girl only bring misery and disgust in our house'

Sarah bit her lip to make a sound and make a fist. How a grandmother can call her granddaughter disgust and misery. Sarah agreed that Roma don't accept Ava her grandchild but saying those harsh words hurt Sarah so much that she felt her tears falling.

She wiped them and then heard Roma voice 'Hi you girl..What are you acting like a drama queen go and make coffee for us..and make special Tea for Lisa...go now'

Sarah turned away and went to the kitchen where she broke down silently and looked at the window and saw the sky and pray 'Plz God... I can't bear this pain. They can say anything to me but it hurt when they say this to my little Ava...plz help me'

Theo

Theo tightens his fist and controls himself not to say something to his mom. When she called Ava a disgust and Sarah a bad luck he almost lost it...but then he realized why should he defend them it's because of him they are treated like this..but deep down in his heart he felt a pain of what he can't describe and when he saw Sarah crying face he wants to go and calm her but then he remember she deserves this maybe Ava does not deserve this but sometimes you can hurt someone deeply when you attack his or her precious thing..and Ava is Sarah precious thing ..like Tina was his...

After coffee everyone went to their room..His mom was truly in cloud nine ...he felt bad for that little girl sleeping peacefully in his room..that because of Sarah she will never be accepted..he drags a hand on his hair and thought why he is even thinking like that.Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

He was waiting when Sarah will come, he can't wait any longer and walks towards the kitchen and saw Sarah was sitting alone in a chair and was having her dinner. She looks so lost and sad she hardly touches her food...when Sarah come back from her trance she saw him standing there. She quickly gets up and said 'do you need something?

Theo looked at her plate how she left everything when she saw him...then he remembers he has to act little softer towards her...well it's acting not real..after Perry Moles information.

Theo was furious on Sarah but when he calms down he told Tom to check Perry and his authenticity of information he can't act impulsively this time..he has to make Sarah trust him and told him everything herself till they got the big proof to put her behind the bar...he should follow his plan...He looked at Sarah quietly then said 'No .. I was waiting for you when you will come? and where Mrs. Brickson'

Sarah put her plate in the fridge and said 'Im sorry you have to wait..im free now and Mrs. Brickson is not feeling well...because of her age the pain in her knee is getting worse but she was ok now' she said very softly

Theo gives her a confused look and said 'You didn't even finish your food?'

She just gives him a faint but reserved smile 'Im done... I was not that hungry'

Theo doesn't say anything but walk away from there in more confusion and another unwanted feeling ..he saw Sarah coming behind him when he opens his room. He went directly to the washroom and when coming back he saw his nightshirt and slippers were in the chair of the vanity. He is sometimes amazed how she even do her task so quickly without any sound.

He then heard a soft whispering sound and then saw Sarah was in the sitting area and was changing Ava diaper and clothes and she was talking to Ava who was very excited and active at this time

'Oh my beautiful baby..why are you so cute ..I'm gonna kiss you here,then here an then' Sarah gives Ava a raspberry kiss which makes Ava to coo and giggles in her baby sound.

Theo looked at them and out of nowhere he felt his lip to twitching upward and he was smiling...he shakes his head.Today his emotions are everywhere.

When Sarah comes to bed after some time he was scrolling his phone then he said 'We are going for shopping tomorrow'

Sarah stopped for a moment what she was doing and looked at him in shocked 'Shopping? She asked in doubt

Theo doesn't turn to her but said 'yup shopping...previously when I send you to shopping you brought only your daughter stuff which bill was cheap and nothing and I think you forgot t do your shopping...so we are going tomorrow and buy you some fancy dresses'

Sarah looks down how she can tell him that she was scared to death if she did extra shopping theo will kill her, she was keen to check every price and brought only necessary item only but Theo has already guessed that

Sarah was unsure of what to say 'Sir..i never do that much shopping and if you don't mind why do I need new dresses?'

Theo put down his mobile and finally turns towards her and saw how she flinched when he gives her the attention. He said then 'come here...scoot closer to me' he said in a gentle tone and saw how Sarah was looking at him..he internally thought he has to make her trust on him soon so that's why he is doing that

He saw how Sarah cautiously scoot closer to him. Theo grab her waist..which was too slim for his liking..no one can tell she gives birth 4 months ago...Sarah makes a gasp sound theo looked her in his eyes and said 'You know I'm trusting you.. we are married like 2 years and so I thought it's time for me to tone down my resentment towards you a little..so that's why I told you to go shopping and but maintain my privacy too. (Sarah bite her lips and Theo put his finger in her lower lip ) I need to go to Miami after 2 months..there is some huge gala that my company is supporting...and I thought I should go with my wife as everyone will be there ...so for that, you need dress' He then removes his finger from her soft lips that he wants badly to taste

Sarah was so stunned 'y .you tr.trust me?' she fumble

Theo can see his plan is working 'I have too.we can't live like that can we?..but with trust come lots of things how to maintain that trust is up to you. I told you I can't compromise on my privacy at all...so don't give me a reason to make me feel sorry for this decision' there was a warning behind which Sarah can understand

Sarah big glossy golden eyes were stunning that she didn't dare to blink. Theo was looking at her in great lust...how come she looks so beautiful at this moment and so innocent?

Theo slowly grab the strap of her nighty and put it down and put his lips on her neck and sucked it, which makes Sarah come back from her shock 'Don't think so much Sarah..just relax..ok'

Sarah moans softly which was enough for Theo to make him lose in her and plan the next step of his planning tomorrow morning. Theo smiles evilly that his wife has no idea what is store for her.
