Termination of enrollment

Regina entered her new apartment with a smile plastered to her face as she marveled at how small the entire thing was compared to their mansion. At least there was peace...

She turned on her phone and received loads of notifications. She knew where most of it came from.

The news about what'd happened has spread like wildfire. She'd be staying low-key for a while until the news died down a little. She just hoped it wouldn't affect her career.

Flora had tried to contact her so many times, but she knew better than to be in contact with her, especially now if all times. She knew how strict her parents could also be, but unlike hers, they were protective and caring. Their reputation means a lot too. If only they knew what their ' innocent ' baby has been up to.

Regina turned off her phone and placed it on a nearby table. " I'll just have to learn to live with this. " She muttered to herself and touched her belly.

A smile appeared on her face as she thought of how things would be from now on. Although, she was only 20 and many would be dying to have her as their partner, but she wasn't willing to let another man father her baby. The baby shouldn't suffer like she has.

She would work her way up into becoming a successful medical practitioner. All these thoughts swirled in her mind and a smile settled on her face. Finally... Some peace.

Since she left the hospital directly, she wasn't able to get her things from her parents house, so she went shopping a little and got herself new set of clothes.

As she sat down on the couch, wondering what she should do with at least few weeks before the next semester, her stomach grumbled loudly jolting her back to reality.

She sighed and almost facepalmed herself. She'd gone out shopping, but didn't remember to actually buy something she'd eat or could prepare.

She got up from the couch, took her phone and her car keys...

Her parents weren't responsible for the ownership of her car though. Although it wasn't the best brand, it was from her friends as a birthday gift... She'd really miss them badly.

After reaching the building's parking lot, she couldn't help but sense that she was being followed. Her eyes squinted s little as soon as she was about to enter her car. She paused and turned sharply... But there was no one. Only a few neighbors who were staring at her with pity and disgust... They recognized her from the news.

" Isn't that the lady who got pregnant before her marriage?" A woman who looked like she was in her early thirties sneered and spoke loud enough for Regina to hear.

" Yeah, she must be a slut and golddigger, I'd better keep an eye out for her. We wouldn't want her stealing our husbands from us, God knows what she's been up to. " Another replied with a mocking laughter as she watched Regina turned back.

" OMG, she's so ugly. I bet they were going to marry her off out of pity. " Someone else spoke up and took a picture of her. " She just ruined a huge opportunity. I heard that the person she was supposed to get married to was supposed to be some kind of hot shot. "

Regina got into her car sharply and exhaled... Well, that was embarrassing.

A notification popped up on the screen of her phone and she noticed that it was from her university. She didn't hesitate befre checking the email.

Her eyes widened in shock as she read the message. Her heart thumped hard against her ribcage as she read the message once more wanting to believe it was a lie. What... What had she broken the marriage for?!!!

Her hands shook as she stared at her phone... She lost her appetite almost immediately. She tried to hold back her tears, but failed to. She screamed out in frustration and hit her cars stirring wheel continuously, gaining the attention of some of her neighbors who didn't waste time in filming her.

She continued her hysteric wail untill she was out of energy, she didn't even care about the onlookers anymore. " Why is this happening to me? What... What have I done to deserve this?" She choked on her own cries as tears rolled down her cheeks none stop.

Soon, reporters gathered the building which left her stupefied... How?! Just now! She tried to start her car's engine, but it would budge no matter how hard she tried.

The reporters gathered round her car almost immediately and fought space as they were all in for a juicy story to publish. They even went as far as stretching microphones through her cars window. She tried to roll it up, but if she did, she'd be breaking people's arms...

" Ms.Gray, is it true that you stole your sister's boyfriend and got intimate with him several times till you got pregnant?" Regina paused for a moment and grabbed the window crank, making them withdraw their hands almost immediately.

She angrily turned her car key and after the third try, the engine on her car started, and she didn't mind the people surrounding it. If they favored their life they'd better move.

" Ms. Gray!" They ran after her car with their microphone still stretched. " Why are you running are you ashamed? "
