章 19: REGRET

VIVIAN'S POV

As I opened my eyes, a heavy sense of déjà vu washed over me. "Why? Why? Not again," I silently lamented. It was an unexpected awakening, one I hadn't anticipated. My first instinct was to slip away quietly before he stirred, but the cruel green glow of the digital clock mocked me – 2:47 am.

How could I let this happen again? The weight of it all bore down on me, and I couldn't hold back the tears that welled up in my eyes. Just as I was beginning to heal from the torment of the past, fate had thrust me back into this harrowing situation. I should have resisted his advances, but he was relentless, wearing down my defenses and manipulating my emotions. The terrifying thought of an unplanned pregnancy gnawed at me, and the possibility of abandonment by him left me trembling with fear.
