Chapter 133

Anna went out quietly to answer her call, she was scared even though she knew she didn't do anything, she wished someone was with her, someone she could confide in, but looking around her, she was almost alone.

"Why was Miles not with them, she wondered what had gone wrong.

Andrew grabbed the result and followed behind her, hoping to read it later.

When they both got outside holding each other's hands, the police officer whose tag says officer Casmir, was sitting outside the reception waiting for her, but the moment he saw her, he stood up and walked towards her and Andrew.

Anna looked around and even her father in-law was not around, she didn't want to over think, she decided to just answer the questions of the police men who had come to her.

"Mrs Anderson, you were seen bringing food to Mr Joseph yesterday, and we were made to understand that you poisoned it, may we know why?

Andrew was shocked, even if he didn't remember a thing, he could sense that his wife was in fear, he looked at the police officer again and asked.

"My wife was with me on this day, through out, there is no way she could have been with Joseph nor have killed him"                                "but Mr Anderson, we were made to understand that she stabbed him once on the spine and he almost died"                            "so is that why you are here?                              He asked and they exchanged glances, even though a female Anderson had told them to be arrest Anna, Andrew didn't seem to like it. They were called by Mrs Anderson, who said she suspected her daughter in-law to be the person who killed Joseph, since she had tried to kill him before, all she was doing was to take off the questioning eye from her husband, unknown to her, she was actually attracting their eyes to her family in general.

"Leave here this minute, and I want to see the footage of my wife going to the station".          They also didn't have that, they just said it, even Mr Anderson hadn't asked them and they had thought him and his wife were I'm on the deal.

Miles and his father came in with a different group of police officers to whom the former bowed in respect, they were dismissed at once and they apologised to Anna.

Anna was shocked that she had not answered any questions and yet all have worked for her, she was very happy, she wanted to hug her father in-law, but he looked angry so she just bowed her head in thanks while they walked back to doctor Raji's office.

"I want my son discharged, you continue your work from home"

"I was going to discharge him in the evening today" 

"Well since it is today, still do it now, there is really no difference between morning and evening" he said and without waiting for reply from them, he walked out and once again Anna, Miles and Andrew followed behind back to Andrew's hospital room where they say and waited for doctors discharge papers.

Anna could really not read anything, she could not understand why they were all looking like they were angry or something, she watched intently and decided to wait for them to speak, maybe that was why they were headed home, because even Miles was not acting like himself.

He looked agitated.

Soon the result was given to Me Anderson, who didn't care to open,  and they move with the little bag they had come with.

As they sat in the limo, they were all quiet, Anna held on to Andrew, he seems like her only saviour, the calmness of the car was enchanting and killing at the same time, why no one was talking, still have her fear flies, her mind raced through a lot.

'did they also believe she killed Joseph? She had asked herself as the ride home progresses, but then she remembered that she had been called my Miles who didn't sound like he thought so.

Then she thought again, Maybe they had found out about that night, they must have learnt about that night, when she had made that crazy journey, a journey she regrets, a journey she wish she could open her eyes from and find out that it was only a dream.

She closed her eyes as she allowed tears flow freely from her cheek.

No one was talking, even Andrew suddenly became cold, he wasn't talking, it felt like he went back to his coma stage again.

Anna wanted to get it over with, she needed to know the reason for a change, she thought that if the truth was out, then she would not have a choice but to tell the truth to the entire family.

On a second thought, she wasn't sure if she could really tell them that she was screaming and begging for more that night, she couldn't tell them that she was so much in need that she had eaten him hungrilly, showing him that she was sex starved.

As they pulled into the drive way of their garage, Anna could feel her heart racing, for once she wished the ride home would last forever, she doesn't know why there was so much tension around her and she feared, she would not be able to hold herself anymore, if she didn't get the information she needs as soon as possible.

She felt that pain again in her pelvic area and remembered one of the things doctor Raji yd Andrew, as they were having the scan done.

Andrew had asked him what the cause for her pain was and he had said that.

"Sex during pregnancy can sometimes feel amazing, but there are a few reasons why it might hurt more than usual.

Firstly, because she is experiencing a much higher level of blood flow to her pelvic region throughout pregnancy because of her larger than normal uterus. Which can make things feel a lot more sensitive, especially if  experiencing an inflamed uterus and vagina.

Pregnant women also tend to experience more tenderness in their nipples and swelling in the legs, which are both very normal symptoms that contribute to sex feeling less than amazing.

She might be experiencing uterine cramping that causes painful sex during early pregnancy.

He further explained that as the baby grows, it lessons.

As if they asked them to wait, they all stood outside the compound, not dating to go outside, while Anna tried not to think about her family and continued to think if what the doctor had said, she wanted to think about hearing the doctor's voice more than feeling so tensed up.

He had also said that she would be making use of the bathroom a lot more often, and sex can also put uncomfortable pressure on her full bladder and cause a worse experience.

She couldn't relate with anything the doctor had said though, because she had been the one who wanted the sex, she had gone to the hospital to seduce him. Though she kind of agree with him on the anxiety part, she had thought of it, when he first asked her the first time, but she had wanted it too

He was very correct when he said  that anxiety is a bit of a mood killer when it comes to sex life in general, Anna couldn't agree less, he further said that 'and that can be even more of the case during pregnancy sex.

Constantly making sure the sex is safe for your growing baby, or worrying that you might be hurting the baby by having sex while pregnant will tense up your muscles and make your vagina a lot more tight, which can cause a lot of discomfort during intercourse.

Some people worry that engaging in sex during pregnancy might lead to an increased risk of having a miscarriage, but there is no research to show this to be the case at all, and many couples carry on having sex the whole way through their pregnancy.

Now that they were at the door step, her thoughts on the doctor stopped, she had to stop when the door opened and found the entire Anderson family looking at her.

Andrew hadn't said anything, since the ride home, he wasn't really sure what to say nor think about, but the fact that his wife had stabbed Joseph before now, he needed to know what led him to it, but funny enough, as Andrew walked in, the tension changed and every one rushed to him, smiling and checking him out.

Anna couldn't explain what just happened, she blinked severally and after the happy mood, the silence again eluded them, she felt sleepy and hungry, but it feels like all eyes were on her, she was even scared to make a move.

Once again Andrew came to her rescue when he said.

"Anna please I want to go and rest, can you help me to my room? His mother stood up immediately to help him but he stretched his hands towards Anna who took it as a lucky break for her.                                                          "What is wrong with everybody?                         He asked the moment they were in his room which he couldn't remember, he couldn't have known it on his own if Anna hadn't led him there, though he was regaining his memories gradually, he could only remember how he met Anna.

"I don't know" she replied as she helped him unstrap his sandals and massagi g his legs, she watch him close his eyes, she took that opportunity to get some snacks and drinks from the fridge in the kitchen, where she came across Miles who was also getting some snack, he gave her a dissapointed look and she felt her stomach turn.

"They know "

If they didn't, know about that night, Miles of all the people in the world would never give her such look.

"When he sleeps, come out, mum and Dad wants to talk to you, infact the entire family wants to meet you" once again, Anna felt like she was going to pass out, she could feel her entire body react to that invitation, but she still needed to eat.

She rushed back to Andrew's room, and found him fast asleep even snoring, she hurriedly ate the snacks and drank up all the juice, she sat down there breathing in and breathing out in fear, she gathered her thoughts together, this was no time to try and think about something else, the more she did, the more her mind raced back to the family waiting for her, she needed to get it done with, she got up and kissed Andrew on the cheek.

"This might be the last time, I don't know what I would meet down there, but how ever, I am really sorry, I never really wanted to do it.

The walk to the living room was the longest of work, she never knew a journey in the same house could be that long, she kept counting her steps and taking them one after the other, finally she got there and found all of them still seated where she had seen them before.

Her mother inlaw was not hiding hers at all, she was showing her anger off, she was angry with her and she couldn't blame her, no mother would be happy to find out that her daughter in-law have been busy sleeping with her GYNECOLOGIST'.

Even if she told them it was just once that it happened which makes it a mistake, they would always believe that she just said it.

Her eyes met her father in-law, who looked away immediately, he looked like he was gathering his thoughts, he didn't want to get too angry, he was more interested in sipping the glass of water infront of him than looking at her.

Anna was glad that the Anderson wives were not around, though she knew they would get the news soon, but she was grateful that she would not be made to meet their judgemental look.
