He's in trouble.

(ARIELLE'S POV)

As we turned around to find out why Sofia was screaming, our eyes widened in surprise. Sofia was bent, clutching her stomach, her face contorted in pain. "Are you okay?" I rushed to her, concern on my face.

Sofia didn't respond; she just kept groaning. I grew scared and beckoned Ashley to come closer. "I think she's hurt, let's help her," I whispered.

Ashley hesitated before rushing to my side. "Arielle, are you sure? I don't know, but I don't trust her."

"Let's just help her," I said, trying to help Sofia stand straight.

Just then, two women approached us. I was relieved; more hands would be appreciated.

"What happened?" One of them asked.

Sofia looked up at them, tears now brimming in her eyes. "She...she tried to hurt me. I'm pregnant, and she pushed me," she said, pointing to me.

A loud gasp escaped Ashley's and my lips as we exchanged surprised looks. What was Sofia talking about?

"How could you?" The first woman turned to me, her face turning red with rage. "You're a monster to hurt a pregnant woman."

"You're barbaric!" The other added.

I blinked, too stunned to talk. But Ashley stepped forward, trying to defend me. "That's not true! Arielle didn't touch her."
