Man Kicked Pregnant Woman out – Story of the Day

I was so thrilled to reveal our pear-sized growing baby to my boyfriend, thinking he would be delighted with a surprise party and the ultrasound images. Instead, he threw me out of his house and the last person I imagined was right there for me.

The doorbell’s bright chime disrupted my excited anticipation. I smoothed the baby blue tablecloth and set down the ultrasound scans on the coffee table, displaying them proudly. After four months, Miles was returning from pursuing his football dreams.

He was coming home to a surprise. As he entered, sweat-streaked and weary, his eyes fixed on the swell beneath my dress. I was pregnant, but my excited anticipation faded under his intense gaze.

“Miles, we’re having a baby,” I stated, my voice wavering.

“I never wanted to be a father, Bella,” he scoffed. “You’re ruining everything!

Suddenly, I noticed his friend, Dave, standing right behind him. He spoke up from the doorway. “Stop yelling at her, man.”

“This is none of your business, Dave!” Miles snapped back and slammed the door in his friend’s face.

I clutched my belly protectively as tears blurred my vision. “I want this child, Miles. It’s part of us,” I insisted.

“I can’t deal with a baby now, Annabelle. It’s your problem if you keep it,” he shook his head.

“But I thought you loved me,” I whispered.

“That’s not enough. Love doesn’t win championships,” he retorted. “It’s the baby or me. You choose.”

“I won’t give up our child,” I declared, strength rising within me.

“Then leave my house—and my life!” he demanded, his eyes unyielding.

With a protective resolve for my unborn child, I packed my things and left, knowing I could never choose Miles over this new life.

Snowflakes spiraled under the streetlamp’s glow as I struggled with disbelief. Miles’ betrayal echoed in my mind, shattering my dreams for the future. I sat on a snow-draped step, cradling my belly, feeling utterly alone.

Echoes of my lonely past – growing up in an orphanage and never making familial connections – loomed over me. But out of nowhere, Dave appeared, his concern etched in the snow-melted paths on his face.

“Annabelle, come with me until you figure things out,” he offered, kneeling to look into my eyes.

I hesitated, pride warring with desperation. “I can’t, Dave. I don’t want your pity.”

His earnest plea broke through my resolve as a sudden pain clenched my abdomen. “You need a safe place. Let’s go,” Dave insisted.

Reluctantly, I acquiesced, guided more by necessity than choice, and we drove through the blizzard to his cozy, cluttered home. It was such a different atmosphere than what I’d known with Miles, filled with warmth and haphazard charm.

Mismatched furniture and overflowing bookshelves spoke of a life well-lived.

“Thank you,” I murmured, grateful yet overwhelmed.

While I settled in, Dave fumbled with hospitality, offering me food and insisting on my comfort. Dinner was simple but nurturing, and it brought a semblance of peace. But when Dave told me he was sleeping on the couch, I had to protest.

“I’m not a burden, Dave. You should be comfortable in your own home,” I shook my head.

“It’s fine, Annabelle. Rest now. We’ll sort everything out tomorrow.”

I lay in Dave’s guest room, struggling against the haunting memory of Miles’ indifferent gaze. Sleep eventually claimed me after several hours of sifting through painful thoughts and tears.

A week later, the rhythm of life with Dave brought a semblance of normalcy. He was ever considerate, his kindness so different from what I knew with my ex. However, I had to fend for myself.

One crisp morning, after Dave left for work, I slipped out with a heavy heart. I’d taken a supermarket delivery job, so I wouldn’t burden him with more of my troubles.

But the job proved harder than I imagined. Trudging through the snow, the weight of groceries, and my growing discomfort only made things harder. Also, I should’ve known Dave would try to find me.

Suddenly, his car pulled alongside me on a busy sidewalk. His expression was full of worry and astonishment.

“Annabelle, why are you working like this?” he asked.

Trying to downplay my efforts, I mentioned needing the job for my prenatal needs. Dave frowned and shook his head angrily, but I know it stemmed from care and concern.

“I can’t just sit around, Dave. I need to prepare for the baby,” I continued, my resolve firm.

He sighed, leading me to the back of his car. “Let me show you something,” he said, opening the trunk and revealing a collection of maternity essentials. I began crying, overwhelmed by his thoughtful preparation.

“Why all this, Dave?” I inquired through the tears.

“It’s for you and the little one,” he said with a heartfelt smile. “You’re going to be an amazing mother, Annabelle.”

His words and actions, so full of unconditional support, deepened my gratitude. Hugging him, I whispered, “You’ll make a great dad someday, too.”

Still, I was still hesitant. Accepting even more from Dave seemed wrong. But he proposed a trade-off: my cooking for his support. He also joked and teased me, and that light-hearted banter eased the tension in my body and heart.

For the first time since this nightmare began, I laughed genuinely. Over the next few days, our pact became a beautiful routine at his house. I found solace in the simple acts of kindness he showered upon me.

At the supermarket, I resolved to leave my job. I could afford to, at least for now, thanks to Dave’s support. And as time passed, our connection deepened.

Dave’s gentle presence became a constant in my life. His care was evident in every gesture, from tying my shoes to surprising me with thoughtful gifts.

One day, as he felt the baby kick, the joy in his eyes sparked a realization in me: I was falling in love with him. But fear crept in, overshadowing my newfound happiness. Could someone like Dave truly love a soon-to-be single mother with a complicated past?

These thoughts haunted me, and I wrestled with the idea of confessing my feelings, fearful of risking the precious bond we’d built.

During a routine chicken casserole night, Dave arrived from work, smiling tiredly. “Smells incredible,” he complimented, placing some tulips on the table.

As we ate, he praised the meal. “Annabelle, this is phenomenal. Reminds me of my mom’s cooking.”

I felt warmth running through my body at his words. So, as we talked, our shared memories made me bold. “I’m so glad you liked it, honey,” I said, immediately regretting the slip.

Dave’s reaction was immediate: his smile faltered. Our pleasant moment was shattered, and I panicked. “Dave? I… it’s just pregnancy brain, I’m sorry,” I stammered, trying to lighten the mood.

He attempted a grin again but stood from the table. “Delicious, as always. Thanks,” he said, leaving the room abruptly.

The following days were filled with awkward silences. Dave’s behavior changed; he left early and returned late. His greetings were brief, and his eyes always avoided mine.

One afternoon, I was curled up on the couch, lost in a sea of worry and self-loathing, when a sharp electronic chime shattered the oppressive silence.

It was a voicemail notification on Dave’s phone, lying abandoned on the coffee table.

A woman’s voice, professional and polite, filled the room. “Mr. Evans, this is a reminder that the documents for your new apartment are ready for pick-up at your convenience.”

The message struck like a blow, sinking my heart. Dave was planning to move. Heartbroken, I realized I couldn’t stay, not as a reminder of a complicated situation he wanted to escape.

So, I decided to go, my heart even heavier than when I tried to leave before. “We have each other, my little boy,” I whispered to my belly, preparing to face the world alone as I packed.

Before I could leave, though, the blare of the doorbell made my entire body jerk. For a second, I thought it was Dave, but I opened the door to see Miles, who sneered at my pregnant form. His first words dripped with disdain. “Motherhood’s added a few pounds, huh?”

“What do you want, Miles?” I asked, my voice sharp.

He breezed past, dismissing my anger with a smirk. “Just checking on you and my bachelor buddy’s hospitality,” he said, his tone patronizing.

His audacity stunned me. “Get out,” I demanded.

He ignored my command, finally getting to the point. “Let’s be a family, Annabelle. Think of the publicity for me, the ‘devoted dad.’”

Publicity? For his football career? Was he insane? He wanted to use our child for his gain! Revolted, I pushed him away, condemning his monstrous selfishness.

Miles laughed. “What are you going to do without me? You think Dave took you in because he loved you? Cared about you and your baggage? You were just another project, a chance to play hero. A charity case, not his ladylove.”

For a second, I considered his words, my thoughts warring in my head. But a sudden pain, sharp and unavoidable, distracted me. A few beats later, liquid splashed on the floor.

“My water broke, Miles,” I gasped, panic setting in as another contraction hit.

His reaction shifted from mockery to horror. “The baby’s coming?” he asked, staggering back in disbelief.

As pain overwhelmed me, Miles fainted, and darkness edged my vision. But during the chaos, Dave’s voice reached me, like a knight ready to save the princess.

“Annabelle? Are you alright?” Dave asked, worriedly taking my hand. “We need to go to the hospital.”

“I… I’m so sorry, Dave,” I stammered, tears blurring my vision further. “For everything. For intruding into your life, for making you take care of me all these months. I know… about the new apartment. You were moving out because of me.”

Dave frowned and then, sighed, exasperated. “You’ve got it all wrong. The apartment is for us, Annabelle,” he explained. “It has a nursery for our baby. I love you.”

Another sharp pain overtook my body before I could gush over his confession. Dave scooped me in his arms and put me in his car, not even caring that Miles was still unconscious on his tiled floor.

The drive to the hospital was full of agony and anticipation. Our baby boy Matthew’s arrival was a chorus of cries and relief, but it marked the beginning of our new journey, one full of love.

Years later, with the birth of our daughter Hope, our family became complete. Dave’s unwavering passion and protectiveness turned past pains into distant memories I never thought about again.

My MIL Sent Me an Insulting Present after I Got a Job as a Dance Teacher – Her Face Went Pale When I Invited Her to the Show

After securing her dream job as a children’s dance teacher, Emma’s joy turned to shock when her mother-in-law, Diane, sent a mocking “congrats” gift. Determined to prove her worth, Emma orchestrated a public reveal that left Diane pale-faced and embarrassed, forever changing their relationship.

I always loved dancing. Ever since I was a little girl, I felt alive when I moved to music. But my family insisted I get a “real job.” So, I became an accountant. It paid the bills, but it never made me happy. Deep down, I always dreamed of teaching dance.

One evening, after another long day at the office, I sat at the kitchen table with my husband, Tom. “I found a job listing for a children’s dance teacher,” I said, trying to keep my voice steady.

Tom looked up from his newspaper. “Really? Do you think you’ll apply?”

“I want to,” I said. “But what if I’m too old to start now? What if they don’t hire me?”

He shrugged. “You’ll never know if you don’t try.”

His words stayed with me. That night, I filled out the application. I wrote about my love for dance, my years of informal teaching at community centers, and why I wanted this job so badly. I hit send and felt a mix of fear and excitement.

Days passed. I checked my email constantly, my heart racing every time I saw a new message. One afternoon, my phone rang. It was the dance studio. My hands shook as I answered.

“Hello, is this Emma?” a cheerful voice asked.

“Yes, this is she.”

“Hi, Emma! This is Kelly from Bright Steps Dance Studio. We’d love for you to come in for an interview.”

I nearly jumped out of my chair. “Thank you so much! When can I come in?”

We set a date for the interview. The days leading up to it were nerve-wracking. I practiced answers to potential questions and imagined myself teaching classes of eager children. The interview went well, and a few days later, I got the call. I got the job!

I couldn’t wait to tell Tom. “I did it! I got the job!” I burst into the living room where he was watching TV.

“That’s great, Emma,” he said with a small smile. “I’m happy for you.”

I wanted more excitement from him, but I was too thrilled to dwell on it. We planned a family dinner so I could share the news with everyone.

At dinner, I stood up, heart pounding. “I have an announcement,” I said. “I got a job as a dance teacher at Bright Steps Dance Studio!”

My sister, Amy, clapped. “That’s amazing, Emma! Congratulations!”

My father nodded. “Well, if it makes you happy.”

But Diane, my mother-in-law, just sipped her wine. “Is that a full-time job?” she asked, her voice dripping with skepticism.

“It’s part-time for now, but it could lead to more hours,” I explained.

“Hmm,” she said, clearly unimpressed. “Well, good luck.”

Her words stung, but I tried to brush them off. A few days later, a package arrived for me. It was from Diane. I was hopeful it was a peace offering. Maybe she had changed her mind and wanted to support me.

I opened the box and pulled out an old, worn-out ballet costume. There was a note inside: “Congrats on your new hobby.”

My heart sank. I felt tears prick at my eyes. I showed it to Tom.

“Look at this,” I said, my voice shaking. “Your mom thinks my job is a joke.”

He looked at the costume and the note. “It’s just her way,” he said. “Don’t let it get to you.”

“How can I not?” I snapped. “She doesn’t respect me or my choices.”

Tom sighed. “Just let it go, Emma.”

But I couldn’t. I was hurt and angry. I decided I wouldn’t let Diane’s mockery slide. I planned to invite her to one of the dance studio’s performances. I would make sure she saw how serious I was about my job.

A few weeks later, I called Diane. “We have a dance recital coming up. I’d love for you to come and see the kids perform.”

There was a pause on the other end of the line. “Alright, I’ll be there,” she said, sounding wary.

I smiled to myself. I had a plan, and I was determined to show Diane just how important my new job was to me.

The dance studio was buzzing with excitement. Kids in bright costumes ran around, giggling and practicing their moves. Parents were busy chatting and snapping photos.

I was in the middle of it all, making sure everything was perfect for the performance. I felt a mix of excitement and nervousness. Today was the day I would show Diane how serious I was about my new job.

“Alright, everyone, gather around!” I called to the kids. They circled around me, their eyes wide with anticipation. “Remember to smile and have fun. You’ve all worked so hard, and I’m so proud of you.”

“Miss Emma, I’m nervous,” one little girl said, clutching my hand.

“You’ll do great, sweetie,” I reassured her. “Just remember your steps and enjoy the music.”

As the kids lined up backstage, I took a deep breath. The audience was filling up the seats. I spotted Tom, who gave me a small wave. Next to him was Diane, looking around with a slight frown. I walked over to them.

“Hi, Diane. I’m glad you could make it,” I said with a smile.

“Of course,” she replied, her tone flat. “I wouldn’t miss it.”

“Hello, Mom,” Tom said, trying to ease the tension. “Thanks for coming.”

Diane just nodded, her eyes scanning the room. I left them and went back to the kids. The lights dimmed, and the chatter in the audience died down. It was showtime.

The music started, and the first group of children took the stage. They danced beautifully, their faces lit up with joy. I watched from the side, my heart swelling with pride. This was why I loved dance. The energy, the passion, the pure happiness on the kids’ faces. It was magical.

After the last group finished, I stepped onto the stage, my heart pounding. I took the microphone and smiled at the audience.

“Thank you all for coming today,” I began. “I want to thank the parents for their support and the kids for their hard work. It’s been an amazing journey.”

I glanced over at Diane. She was watching me closely, her expression unreadable.

“I also want to give a special thank you to someone who has been incredibly supportive,” I continued. “My mother-in-law, Diane. She sent a very generous gift that inspired today’s costumes. Thank you, Diane.”

There was a murmur in the audience. Diane’s eyes widened, and she shifted uncomfortably in her seat. The parents around her looked confused. Some of them nodded in appreciation, while others whispered to each other. Diane stood up abruptly and walked out of the hall, her face pale.

I finished my speech and handed the microphone back. The rest of the evening went by in a blur. Parents congratulated me, the kids were over the moon, and the energy was electric. But all I could think about was Diane’s reaction.

After the performance, Tom found me backstage. “Emma, what was that about?” he asked, concern in his eyes.

“I had to show her that I take my job seriously,” I said. “She sent me that old costume to mock me. I couldn’t let it go.”

Tom sighed. “I understand now. I just wish things didn’t have to be this way.”

“Me too,” I said softly. “But maybe now she’ll think twice before belittling my choices.”

That night, as we got ready for bed, I felt a mix of satisfaction and relief. I had stood up for myself and for my passion. It wasn’t perfect, but it was a start.

Diane didn’t bring up the performance again, and there was a noticeable shift in our interactions. She was distant, but I hoped that in time, things might change.

Charged My Husband’s Old Phone and Saw a Teenage Photo of Our New Nanny – I Thought I Was Losing It until I Called My MIL

I Put my husband’s old phone on charge and went through it expecting to find embarrassing photos of him as a teenager. Instead, I discovered a shocking connection to our new nanny. What I found turned my world upside down and led to a revelation that left me questioning everything about our marriage.

I was cleaning out the junk drawer in the kitchen. You know, the one where all the random stuff ends up. Old receipts, expired coupons, and mystery keys.

As I sorted through the mess, I found my husband’s old high school phone buried under a pile of outdated chargers. It was dusty, and I vaguely remembered he said it was broken years ago.

Curiosity got the better of me. I thought it might be fun to see if it still worked, so I plugged it in. To my surprise, the screen lit up almost immediately. I couldn’t resist taking a look. What kind of teenage treasures might be hidden inside?

Embarrassing selfies, silly texts, or photos from his high school days? The possibilities were too intriguing to pass up. I settled down on the couch, ready for a little trip down memory lane, not knowing that what I was about to find would change everything.
