Sacrifice

Chapter 19
My mood got worse as days went by, I never told Peter I kept receiving calls from not only from girls but also boys, even my ex called me spewing all sort of rubbish, Peter never asked much but I think he noticed everything. I couldn't sleep Saturday night, worst, Peter left me, to work, he stopped working Sunday, I wonder is he couldn't stand my mood that's why he went to work. I switched off my phone not to get more calls, I decided to bath and sleep, I went inside the bath around 12. I heard the door open while am in the bath,
"Heavy" I heard peter called and my lips curved in smile, he always does that to me.
"Stop calling me that" I said.
"But that's what you are" he teased, I heard the door again, I called but no response, my shoulder slumps, he left. I walked out after bathing and saw a dress on top the bed, I walked towards it. I saw a written note on top it, its a beautiful blue gown, a perfect one for a pregnant woman, I read the note.
"Its for you heavy, put it on and come downstairs" its Peter, I went into hyper speed, I dressed up immediately, I didn't apply too much make up, Peter hates make up, thank God I didn't fall with how I was rushing out. I came out, I saw Peter, in all his glory, he's wearing black trouser and a vintage shirt, he looks perfect, a soft moan left my lips.
I slowly walked closer, he stretched out his hands and I took it.
"You're beautiful heavy" he said and I smiled.
"You're perfect" I saw, since no other words can describe him.
"Am guessing you're too mesmerized with me you fail to see the car" he said, I looked behind him and saw a red cute Camry packed behind him.
"I did see it, but why should I notice it" I asked, he chuckle
"Cause, the car is ours" he said, making my jaw dropped
"How" I said getting close.
"My dad always say car is important to family, in case of emergency, and you're the biggest emergency right now" he said, though am not looking at him I can sense his amusement. I stopped looked back at him, he farrowed his eyes, the reason am looking at him now is because he said family.
I walked over to him and hugged him, I didn't want to point out the word family but believe me it made the butterfly in my stomach flip flop.
"Thanks" I said.
"You're welcome, so let's go before we miss the party" he said and opened the door for me like a gentleman.
"How long have you been saving for this car" I asked as he stepped in, am amazed at the beautiful interior.
"3 months now, I bought it last 2 weeks, and took it to mechanics for some touch up" he said, I smiled, he really full of surprises, I can never love him less "the owner wanted to travel out so he sold it at a very cheap price" he said, and drove off, I trust his driving skills.
"Let's go give your schoolmate something to talk about" he said and I smile,  so happy I think I will melt before reaching the party, I directed him as he drove, its just the next two neighborhood. We got there right on time, everybody is already there so we made the big entrance. On entering everybody kept quiet and stared at us, Peter drew me close and whispered earning a blush from me.
"This is how you make and entrance" he whispered I smiled, he then guilded me in, I saw my class boys, they still look like boys, unlike my Peter who toward over them in everything, I waved styly at them as he took me to sit down.
"Damn girl, you killed it" Ifeoma said coming closer with a bunch of other girls, it made a frown appear on my face cause that's an invitation for Peter to leave, he don't do well with bunch of girls.
"I guess I should leave you to catch up with your friends" he said smiling, I wanted to stop him but I know its not fair, "ladies take care of her, she's the reason my heart beat" he said and the girls gushed, I blushed, he is super sweet.
"Damn girl, you hit the Jack pot" Eunice said, I smiled as I watch rye retrieving figure of Peter.
