My boyfriend and I have loved each other since high school. We have the same starting point from a poor countryside. Both of them strived to pass the university entrance exam, graduated with honors and had stable jobs.
The time of living, studying and starting a career in our city was not easy. However, because I have him and he has me, no matter what difficulties or challenges we encounter, we try to overcome them.
After coming to the city for about 3 years, in order to save on rent costs and also determined that sooner or later we would belong to each other, my husband and I decided to live together. After working for a while, the two accumulated more than 300 million VND. We discussed and agreed to borrow from the bank to buy a cheap apartment in the suburbs to prepare for married life in the future.
We have been in love since we were in the countryside for nearly 10 years, our families are no longer strangers to each other, our bank debt is gradually decreasing, this is the right time for us to hold a wedding. This decision of mine and him made everyone around us happy, happy and supportive.
The time preparing for the wedding was very difficult, but I always felt happy. Being with you, being your wife, and later giving birth to your children is my greatest wish in this life.
I thought I would be the happiest person, but everything suddenly completely collapsed (Illustration: TD).
Recently, my boyfriend told me that he wanted to have children.
We’ve been dating for nearly ten years, and the wedding is about to happen. I hope to have good news as soon as possible.
However, contrary to what he thinks, I don’t want to have children yet. Both are developing their careers and have not yet paid off their bank debt. You and I are still young. I want us to be really stable, steadfast, and no longer worry too much about money. That way, if we have children, we can take good care of them.
“Dear, we’ve tried together to get to this point, let’s try a little more,” I whispered to my boyfriend and after many days, he finally softened.
But no one expected in life, the moment I thought I was about to reach happiness was also the moment I was broken, completely collapsed.
A week before the wedding, my boyfriend’s female colleague earnestly asked to talk to me. Curious, I went to meet her.
As soon as she saw me, she immediately knelt down and repeatedly apologized. She kept crying, saying she had committed a “heinous” crime but asked me to give way. She will be grateful to me for the rest of her life.
I was very surprised, didn’t understand what was going on. After comforting my boyfriend’s colleague to stop crying, I collapsed and burst into tears. It turned out she was two months pregnant with my boyfriend. The incident happened when the two were “too drunk” on a trip with the company.
She really likes my boyfriend, is afraid of abortion and will not be able to become a mother in the future, and loves her unborn child too much. She asked me to give her my husband.
After hearing these words, I couldn’t help but be shocked and fainted. Somehow, I woke up in our shared house.
He stayed by my side constantly asking me how I felt, if I was feeling less tired, if I was okay… Then, he knelt down and begged me to forgive him. He swore he didn’t know how the company vacation incident happened, he only knew that the female colleague was demanding that he take responsibility.
As for my boyfriend, he insisted on aborting the pregnancy and still planned to hold a wedding with me as usual.
Too shocked and angry, I kicked him out of the house, temporarily I didn’t want to see his face. Lying in bed for the past two days, I could only cry and did not dare to tell this “earth-shattering” story to anyone.
After calming down a bit, I was very confused. Our 10 year love cannot be given up so easily. But I also don’t have the heart to cruelly tell others to have an abortion or take away a child’s father. Thus, I will not be able to live happily in my next life.
Now I have to do? I’m so miserable…
