61 61. William’s Dream

“No, William! You hurt me!” Paula screamed, trying to resist William’s advance.

“William, don’t be rough!” She pleaded. Her teary eyes showed how she felt. “William, no! I’m pregnant! Don’t do that!”

***

William gasped, rising from his deep slumber. Sweat dripped down his body, trickling down his sculpted body, which had returned to its well-muscled form-there was no excessive fat at all.

The man wiped his sweaty forehead. He just had a bad dream. A dream that felt so real. He hurt Paula by forcing his will without thinking about Paula’s condition.

He couldn’t believe he could do that to Paula. During this time, even though the two of them did not love each other, William always did it gently with all his heart. Sometimes, he had rough sex, but he did that with her permission. Never had he pursued his own pleasures like in his dream just now. He always treated Paula well, just as Paula does for him.

However, was the dream he just had a reality? If that was true, Paula said that she was pregnant. Was that real? Or was he having this dream because he was reminiscing about yesterday’s confrontation with his father-in-law? Honestly, he still didn’t know why his father-in-law insisted that he abused his daughter.

“Oh, God! Why has my life turned into such a mess?” William complained as he plopped down on the bed again.

William rubbed his forehead and massaged his temples. He can’t be affected by this. There were a lot of problems he had to solve first before he met Paula.

.....

“Drink the tea, William! While it’s still warm.” The voice of the woman next to William took the man by surprise.

“Vanessa? Why are you here?” William asked frantically. He remembered that there should be no one in his house.

“Dad and mom are in the living room. We want to tell you something important, but your cell phone can’t be reached,” Vanessa answered with a gloomy face. At first, she had meant to ask William to come home. However, her parents could not wait. They immediately visited their son’s house.

“How did you guys get into my house?” William asked again. As he recalled, he hadn’t given anyone the house password since Paula left. However, even his family can easily visit his house.

“You should have locked the door properly!” Vanessa answered lightly. Vanessa sipped her tea and took a bite of the financier biscuit she served for William.

“The door will automatically lock,” William defended himself. “Don’t tell me about my own house!”

“I just entered Paula’s birthday for the password and magically ... this love nest is wide open for me,” Vanessa teased William, laughing heartily. “Romantic things turn out to be dangerous.”

William frowned, not believing that his sister would break into the house so easily. “You little intruder!”

William took a sip of the hot tea that Vanessa served. A little too sweet, just as Vanessa liked it. He was used to the plain tea that Paula served.

“Why are you frowning? Isn’t it good?” Vanessa asked curiously as William’s brows furrowed.

“Oh, it’s okay!” William replied with an awkward smile.

He then thanked his sister. She also replied with a wry smile, she knew that her brother didn’t like the tea.

“Come on, come out! Mom and dad are waiting,” said Vanessa, who pulled her brother’s strong arm.

William complied with Vanessa’s request lazily. He didn’t want to see his parents because he didn’t know how to explain his lies about Lea’s pregnancy. He was about to tell them the truth, but he was just confused about how to tell them in the best way.

“I’m going to the bathroom first. You get out of here!” said William as he slapped a pillow against Vanessa’s face. “How many times have I told you not to enter my room without permission? You brat!”

However, William was surprised when he found a box of rubber in Vanessa’s hands. It was super embarrassing. His sister indeed turned out to be annoying if he allowed her to enter his room.

“Wow! Do you have a lot of rubbers? XL size ones. Poor Paula! She must be in a lot of pain,” Vanessa’s very nosy comment made William’s face blush. He then violently grabbed Vanessa’s hand and kicked the girl out of his room.

“Stay away from my room, snotty child!” he shouted as he slammed the door loudly after Vanessa was out of the room.

“Hurry up! Come out of the room! Or mom and dad will impatiently tear up the letter from Lea!”

Hearing Lea’s name being mentioned, William hurried to open the door again instead of going to the bathroom. Letter? Lea? Where did he go?

“Where’s her?” William asked frantically, gripping Vanessa’s shoulders tightly and rocking her.

“Lea left this morning,” Vanessa answered flatly.

“Where is she going?”

Vanessa shook her head. Of course, William became even more worried. “Why can’t you ask her to stay?”

“William Montgomery! Leah is an adult. How long do you want to babysit her?” Alex, who heard the ruckus, went straight to his son’s room, followed by Lisa who came later with a worried face.

“Let Lea sort things out on her own, Will! You already made the decision, no? Don’t control Lea’s life just because you want to reduce the feeling of guilt,” Vanessa looked at William seriously. She wanted to reassure his brother that Lea would be fine by herself.

William looked at Alex and Lisa, then looked down. “So, you guys already knew the truth?”

Everyone nodded. They told him how Lea revealed all the lies she made.

“I’m sorry, dad, mom,” William said quietly. “I want to take care of Lea myself, but I don’t want Paula to misunderstand me.”

“That’s enough! Don’t think about it. Lisa and I agreed not to make you pay the price at this time,” Alex explained.

William shuddered. Not now meant next time. Hopefully, the punishment was not the hard one.

Vanessa then opened her handbag and handed William a white envelope. “Lea asked me to give this to you.”

William was stunned for a moment, then slowly opened the envelope. He took something-a book-out of the envelope and checked it for a moment, frowning.

Lisa, who was experienced as a mom, immediately knew what kind of book it was. “Isn’t that a pregnancy book?”
