Lonely Bride

“Miss Rose More” We looked up and noticed the human beings I in no way prefer to see in my life.

My coronary heart started out beating speedily, searching for them, and I got up from my seat after signing Ivan to take Bella inside.

“Sister Martha, how have you been?” I requested that they walk with a small smile; however, I am burning from the inside.

“I am excellent, my child. How are you?” She spoke, examining me with a small smile.

“Very well, thank you.” I nodded to her and requested a seat.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

“Rose, as you already comprehend, that is why I am here.” And I nodded.

“Sister Martha, I am sorry I have made you wait for so long, but now I already have a solution for this problem.” I started with a smile the moment a thought struck my mind, and I shared the same with her.

“If you suppose that this is good for you and her, I don’t have any problem with that. But now that I have put her identity into the adoption listing, do it as soon as you can. Because now I cannot keep it anymore.” Saying she gained it.

“Don’t fear; it will be my priority.” I responded with a smile and nodded to myself.

She left without further interaction because she was aware of how necessary it was for me. And I will do what is needed as soon as possible.

“I sat lower back on the sofa and closed my eyes, thinking about my little Bella, who is my daughter; however, I haven’t given birth.

The day I had determined to end my life, I heard her cry.

At first I thought I was assuming, but then once more I heard that I desired to pass that cry, but her cry used to melt my coronary heart a bit, and eventually I padded toward her voice. I noticed a dump yard. I checked internally, but I could not find any babies there. I once again thought I was assuming, but her cry wasn’t fading at all. So, I started opening the trash bags one by one, and soon I discovered a small, susceptible infant with no garments crying to save her life.

Tears of pain left my eyes, seeking her situation and how someone had abandoned her to die.

I immediately hid her small, fragile physique in my jacket, and I felt a desire I had never felt before. Baby right away stopped crying and clutched her little physique to my chest. I don’t recognize why, however; I cry even more, all-embracing her while not understanding whether I am joyful or unhappy; however, I understand the fact that I was once at ease.

I peeked into my jacket, and she used to be searching, all worn out and exhausted from crying. On the other hand, I no longer passed over the reality of her twinkling eyes searching at me with hope.

I hope to be with her.

I hope to not leave her here alone.

I wonder why my heart is melting just looking at her.

Maybe because I can see the same hope in her eyes as I see

in mine for some love and affection, simply like I crave for

And at that second, I decided.

She is mine now. I knew that fact. God has given me this.

And I will provide the whole thing to her that I have craved for my entire life.

I will in no way leave her alone.

She will by no means feel lonely.

Securing myself in my arms, I ran back to my little residence, the place I was living with Nathalia. She used to be a female in her late forties and my landlord.

She doesn’t know my story, but she knows there is some story behind my deeds. She has seen me do everything from drinking to drugs, and I don’t know why, but she has always cared for me. I have given her many reasons to throw me out of the house, but she never did.

“Natalia, please do something. This baby is no longer looking in good condition.” I knocked on the door impatiently and told her the second she opened the door.

“Which baby?” She looked right here and there, and I pushed her aside. I walked in and showed her a small creature in my arms.

“Oh, my god, from where did you get this baby?” She asked while looking at me, all startled, and I informed her of the complete story.

First, she concedes that I used to be under the influence of alcohol and stole this child from anyone. However, later, she trusted me.

“We need to take her to the hospital as soon as possible.” She rushed to get her bag and car key, and my tears weren’t stopping. What if anything happened to her?

We reached the hospital, and they informed the cops. Natalia told them she had the baby, as I did not have any documents to show them if they needed any.

The cops take the statement and inform the child welfare department.

Bella was weak and needed to be under observation for some days. We got to know she was a newborn baby, just a day old.

My heart broke even more because of how cruel people are. How can they throw a small baby to death?

If I ever find them, I am going to kill them with my bare hand.

I started coming to the hospital every day, and I used to stand the whole day outside the NICU and keep looking at her from the glass wall. And pray to God for her wellbeing.

Doctors and nurses have recognized me by now, and so do the child welfare people.

No one had reported a missing baby to the cops, so it became clear someone intentionally threw her to get rid of her.

Slowly and gradually, me and Sister Martha have made some bonds, and she understood how I am attached to the baby in the little time we had with each other.

After a month, it was time for discharge, and just the thought that she would go away from me has shaken me to the core. I cry and cry, looking at her from outside, and Sister Martha has noticed that.

I asked her if I could adopt the baby, but she told me she must wait some time. What if someone comes in claiming the baby is theirs?

I told her to let the baby stay with me, and I promised her to keep her safe and sound. First, she said no because it was against the rules, but then she agreed to my request.

Their staff used to visit every week to see if the baby was alright, and slowly their time passed from week to month and then once every two months when they saw how happy she was with me.

One day she told me I could adopt her, but again I got stuck when I did not have any documents to submit.

It’s not like I don’t have any, but again, I don’t want to come to anyone’s notice. Let’s not forget that Sean Hudson is not a small name. Though I have only come in front of the media once, they have given full coverage for the same, and Sean might find out about me.

I again asked Natalia for help, but she can’t adopt her as she is already a heart patient. And now, today, I have received the final ultimatum from her, and I must do something.

I opened my eyes and looked at the ceiling.

Picking up the phone, I hurriedly dialed a no. Hello, Nathan, I want you to become the father of my baby.” I said this while pacing here and there and biting my nails.

“Are you out of your mind?” I heard his pissed-off voice. His voice was telling me he might be with someone or in some meeting.

“No, I am serious, Nathan,” I said. I was a little annoyed.

“Are you drunk by any chance?” He whispered, and frustration was dripping from her voice.

“No, you idiot,” I said, getting more annoyed.

“You are my sister, and do you even realize what the fuck you are talking about?” And that made me think about what I said.

And I facepalm myself by using my words.

“I mean to say I want you to become the Father of Bella. I want you to adopt her legally; as you know, I can’t.” I finally put things right and heard him breathing in relief.

“One day I will get a heart attack because of you.” He said it grumpily, and I giggled.

“Ok, now tell me to do that, please.” I said it in hope.

“Let me know when you need me, and I will be there.” He said that and hung up on me, and I smiled.

‘God, what will I do without him?’ I thought about looking up at the ceiling and thinking about the great god.

“Mam.” I look at the couple looking at me, smiling. I completely forgot that they were also present in the room.

I guess they understood that I had sorted out the issue I had been facing for a long time.

Damn, why didn’t I think before? I lifted my lip from the side.
