"No way! No fucking way!"
I thought loudly as I rushed to pick my phone up again and stared at the screen hoping that I made a mistaken and it wasn't what it said it was.
"No."
I let out when I searched again and it still came up the same. I tuned to my contact and called someone who could verify because I didn't want to conclude. It would change everything. it would make everything worse than it already was. I didn't want it to be true. I couldn't stand it being true yet I wanted to know so I called the one person who could verify.
"Hey, darling. How are you?"
My pharmacy friend who I get my supplements from greeted and usually, I would have greeted her back but not today.
"I sent you a picture, please confirm what pill it is."
I told her.
"Sure, let's see."
She said and paused for a moment and then I heard her gasp. My heart sank because her reaction just confirmed it. Abortion pills. There were abortion pills in my supplement bottle.
"Did you take this?"
Grace asked me. Did I take it? I had no idea! I didn't know it was there. Abortion pills. Fucking abortion pills when I wanted so much to have a baby.
"I don't know if I took it, Grace. It wasn't supposed to be there. I found it in my supplement bottle. The supplement bottle I got from your pharmacy. The same one I have been taking for years now."
I told her. I got the supplements at her hospital so she should know. She should fucking know because she was the one who gave me those supplements.
"There's no way. The bottle was sealed."
Yeah, it was. Just like every medication that I have gotten from them. Sealed and only opened when I want to take them.
"Are you sure? Are there more?"
I walked back to my dressing table and laughed out in sadness. Of course, there were more. I only noticed because I was almost done with the contents in the bottle and it magically increased. I separated the pills and the ones for abortion were more than my actual supplement. I laughed even more.
"There's more. More than the supplement. Grace. I have been taking abortion pills and I had no idea. I lost my baby, Grace and it wasn't because my body hated carrying a child but because I unknowingly took abortion pills. Abortion pills. I killed my baby."
I laughed bitterly as I said the words. I killed my baby and I had no fucking idea. I didn't check. I wasn't careful enough and because of my negligence, my baby died.
"Becca, it's not your fault. You had no idea. You know what? Pack it all up and I will come get it."
Yeah, it's her job and I am sure she wants to cross-check and see if the mistake was from her side but I already knew the answer to that because I already knew someone deliberately slipped the pills in my supplement bottle. Someone who didn't want me to have a baby. Somehow who already had a family and didn't want to have one with me. Julius.
It was a bitter pill to swallow but there's no way I was wrong. If I didn't find out what I did today, I would not have suspected a thing but with everything I know now, it was so obvious that it was all him. he did this. He killed my baby. No, not baby but babies. Three times. Three fucking times. Three times I blamed myself for losing our baby. I had no idea it was all him. It was him not wanting to have kids with me. Abortion pills.
"There's no need, you already saw it. you already know what it is. We both know the error isn't from you so we both know someone deliberately put it in there."
I already knew who that someone was. Someone I trusted with my heart and my life.
"Still, Becca. It will be better if I see them."
She insisted.
"Fine, I will pack it up and drop it off at the hospital,"
I told her and hung up because I suddenly didn't want to talk to anyone. I packed the pills back into the bottle and looked through the locker if I would find anything else but nothing. Just that bottle. Just that fucking bottle because Julius knew I take it every day. He probably thought I wouldn't notice.
He probably thought I still took it. He had no idea that I had stopped taking all medications because I didn't feel like it anymore. I stood up and walked out of the bedroom with a destination in mind. His home office.
It's always locked but he had no idea that I knew the combination to unlock it because I never tried to go there before. Not once since we moved into the mansion have I been into his office when he isn't home. I didn't think I had anything to do there.
I unlocked the door with ease and walked into the room, closing the door behind me. I walked straight to the huge table and started looking through all the lockers. I didn't know what I was looking for but I knew I had to find something.
I didn't find anything in all the lockers and didn't. I left the table and started checking all the shelves. Turning everything upside down because I didn't care. I wasn't trying to hide the fact that I had been in his office.
I dragged a bunch of books to the ground and even shattered an award frame but I didn't care. My babies. He killed my babies. The words kept ringing in my ears. I walked back to the table when I didn't find anything on the shelves.
I was about to leave when something on the table caught my attention. A brown envelope. I reached for it and tore it open. I laughed bitterly when I saw the content.
"Wow,"
I let out bitterly. I wasn't even surprised. With everything why would it even be surprising that Julius already had a divorce plan? It made sense after everything I already found out. It was obvious that he killed my babies because he didn't want a family with me. Now that he doesn't need me anymore, of course, he planned to divorce me and throw me out.
