Exposed

After Johnathan's departure, Tamara went to her room to brood, trying hard to understand her current predicament. As she sat on her bed, she started jotting down every event that might have led to her being pregnant, everything she could remember from two months ago, that would help her understand what was happening better. The problem was, it wasn't easy to remember everything that far back, but she was determined. Tamara had always been an introvert, which means she rarely go out except to the academy, to the library and occasionally to visit her betrothed Johnathan, she basically had no friends and liked it that way, her engagement to Carambite's heir was a miracle, being set up from the time of her birth by her late mother. It also inadvertently means that Johnathan was the only boy she had ever been with, could he be responsible for the baby? Tamara thought with a little hope, how would she tell him? He was already so concerned that she was sick, telling him she was not sick but pregnant would be like springing the impossible on him. She began to make plans on how to inform her father when suddenly she heard a blood-curdling scream, Anya was at it again, only God knows what she was on about this time.

Few minutes later, her stepmother burst into her room looking furious, Anya hot on her heels. "I always knew you are not as innocent as everyone made you to be," Elisabeth said furiously, but Tamara has no idea what she was talking about.

"What is it, stepmother?" she asked tiredly, she had only been able to eat a few bites of her food and was resting.

"You are so shameless, after getting impregnated, you still act like you are in a relationship with Johnathan" Anya said angrily. Tamara was scared speechless, she didn't think anyone would find out that quickly, did someone look in her bag? Tamara thought with dismay, she should have disposed the kit properly, looking at her tote bag sitting on the dresser and wondering how they found out her little secret, she hadn't even left her room since she came, her food was brought in by the maid. Tamara wanted to buy some time for herself until she could find out who was responsible or how it happened before she would tell her dad but it seemed that is impossible now.

"What are you talking about?" she asked softly, pretending she didn't understand.

"Well, I am not pregnant neither is Anya, which means this is yours" she said raising up one of the test stick Tamara had used previously. Suddenly her vision began to blur, she was speechless as she stared at the incriminating evidence in front of her, both Elizabeth and Anya were pleased with this development and couldn't wait to tell everyone about it. Tamara knew there si nothing she could do now and if she thought she could hide the truth before, she had another thing coming.

"Wait, it's Johnathan's" she said feebly even though she didn't think that was possible, the closest intimacy she had ever shared with him was a short kiss.

"Are you certain?" Anya asked wiping out her mobile phone to dial a number, and started speaking at once. "Your goody two shoes said you are the father of her baby," she said when the receiver picked up, "Oh she's so pregnant, we found her test kit in the bathroom," she continued, sounding as if she just won the lottery or something "Well, that's her claim so you better get down here to clarify things," she said looking at Tamara with a broad smile. While Anya was making the call, Elizabeth was also calling Mr Weasley Thornton, her husband to explain everything.
