The First Child Ep. 4

The one week James had given Emily passed quickly. Each day he watched her, waiting to see if she would change her mind. But Emily held her ground. She fed the baby, cleaned the house, and went about her duties, but she never once mentioned the hospital. On the seventh day, James sat in the living room while Emily bathed the baby. When she came out, holding the child wrapped in a soft towel, James cleared his throat. “Emily,” he began quietly, “I gave you one week. That week has ended. Are you ready now to take this child to the hospital?” Emily did not answer immediately. She carried the baby to the bedroom, dressed him, and then returned to the sitting room. James was still waiting. “Emily, I am talking to you,” he said firmly. She sighed. “James, how many times will I say it? I am not going anywhere. Stop pressing me. I will not do any DNA test. I will not do any hospital test. You are the father of this child, and that is final.” James leaned forward, trying to remain calm. “If I a...

The First Child Ep. 3

James woke up early on Monday morning. He had been thinking all night. Emily’s refusal to do a DNA test had left him restless. He could not focus at work, and every time he looked at the baby, the doubt grew stronger. By 9am, he drove to the hospital alone. He didn’t take the baby with him because he wanted to first ask some questions before deciding on the next step. When he arrived, he went to the reception and asked to speak with a doctor. A few minutes later, he was shown into a small office. The doctor, a middle-aged man with glasses, greeted him warmly. “Good morning, Mr. James. How can I help you today?” James sat down and leaned forward. “Doctor, I have an unusual question. Is it possible for two white parents to give birth to a black baby?” The doctor looked thoughtful. “It is possible, but it is very rare. In some cases, the child may have inherited certain genes from past generations. In other rare cases, it could be a medical condition affecting the skin.” James nodded slow...

The First Child Ep. 2

Emily is distraught. She was in her room with her baby. James’s words from the night before kept echoing in her head. "We must have a DNA test. I don’t want to raise another man’s child." Her husband had said. She had told herself over and over again that morning that she would not do it. No matter how much James insisted, she was not going to any hospital for a DNA test. She was tired, weak, and still recovering from childbirth. She also felt insulted that her own husband would accuse her of cheating. When James returned from work that evening, she was ready with her answer. “James,” she said as he entered the room, “I am not doing any DNA test. I am not going anywhere.” James stopped in the middle of the room. “What did you just say?” “You heard me. I am not following you to any hospital. I will not do it.” His eyes were fixed on her. “So you are hiding something. That explains it.” Emily frowned. “I am not hiding anything. I just will not subject myself to this insult.” Ja...

The First Child Ep. 1

Emily was in her room that night. She is sitting on the edge of the bed, holding her belly. She was in her ninth month of pregnancy, and she had been counting down the days. For years, she and her husband, James, had prayed for a child. They had tried doctors, prayed in churches, and visited specialists. Nothing worked. Until one day, 9 months ago, Emily told James the news he had been waiting to hear — she was pregnant. From that day, James treated her like gold. He made sure she never lacked anything. He was excited, nervous, and happy at the same time. Every night, he would place his hand gently on her belly and talk to the baby. On this night in Texas, as the clock moved past 11pm, Emily felt a sharp pain. She gasped and held her belly tighter. The pain came again, stronger this time. “James… It’s time. I'm in labour,” she said quietly but firmly. James jumped from the chair where he had been watching TV. “Are you sure?” “Yes… I think I’m in labour.” He grabbed the hospital ba...

Pregnant Before Wedding Day FINAL EPISODE

Lily finally gathered herself and returned to John. With shaky steps and a heavy heart, she told him that Mekus had once again rejected her. She pleaded with John to fulfill his promise of going with her to speak to Mekus. John agreed, though he was disappointed at how everything had turned out. On the agreed day, they both went to Mekus’s house. Lily’s heart pounded all through the journey. She hoped this would be her last chance to make things right. Mekus welcomed them politely, but he was not smiling. John began speaking slowly, his voice steady and clear. He said, “Mekus, I know this may feel strange, but I came here to tell you the truth. I have nothing to gain by standing here today. I only want peace. Lily has made many mistakes, and I do not support what she did, but I must tell you the truth as a man. This pregnancy belongs to you.” He looked directly into Mekus’s eyes. Lily kept her head low, ashamed of everything that had happened. Mekus folded his arms and listened, saying...

Pregnant Before Wedding Day Ep. 10

Lily stayed indoors for many days, unable to eat well or smile. Her heart was troubled and pained. She thought getting back into Mekus’s life would be easy. She imagined that once he heard she was carrying his baby, he would open his arms and hold her close again. She thought the news would melt his heart and make him forget the past. But the reality was far from that. Mekus had sent her away without mercy. The rejection cut her deeply. Every morning, she woke up hoping it was all just a bad dream, but it wasn’t. She would sit on her bed, sad and lost in her thoughts. Tears would gather in her eyes without warning. The shame of being rejected by both John and Mekus weighed her down. She thought of removing the baby, but her heart wouldn’t allow it. Deep inside, she wanted to be a mother. She placed her hands on her belly and felt a strange mix of fear and love. That night, she made a decision to visit John again. She believed maybe he could help her fix what was broken with Mekus. The ...

Pregnant Before Wedding Day Ep. 9

Lily did not want to give up on Mekus. She loves him and has no other option. She picked up her phone to call Mekus again. Her heart was beating fast, but she knew she had to try one more time. When he answered, she spoke softly with a broken heart. “Mekus, please, there’s something I need to tell you. It’s very important. I can’t say it on the phone. I need to look you in the eyes when I say it.” Mekus hesitated, clearly remembering the hurt she had caused him. But Lily did not give up. She begged until he finally agreed to see her that weekend. When Saturday came, Lily dressed carefully, though her heart was not settled about the visit. She kept rehearsing in her mind how she would start the conversation. The taxi ride to Mekus’s new place felt longer than the first time she visited. When she arrived, she stood outside for a moment, taking a deep breath before knocking. The door opened, and Mekus stood there looking different—stronger, more confident. He stepped aside to let her in. ...
