Chapter 77

Alaria:

I had to fight back the urge to run toward Damon, wanting to understand what he just said, and what he just accused the woman of.

Katherine was low, I understood and knew that very well, but she couldn’t have been as low as to do this. The woman was not going to stoop to that direction.

Damon walked away, not even bothering to turn around to look at me. He knew that he just threw a bomb in my face and he knew that I was going to need to carry it.

I pinched the bridge of my nose and I was forced to walk knowing that I was going to need to think straight. It was an idea that I didn’t want to deal with, an issue that was far too annoying for me to be listening to right now.

“You look like you are lost,” Bianca said, breaking my train of thoughts. I turned to face the woman and she smiled before I walked toward her, wrapping an arm around her neck as I pulled her in for a hug.

“I am sorry. I have a lot in my mind right now. There are a few things that I need to think of, and I didn’t see you.” I said, and she nodded.

“I figured out that much. Normally, you are more focused, but when I saw that you didn’t even look at anyone around you, well, let’s just say that it is not much like you.” She said, and I nodded. “How are you? How are things going with you?”

‘I am fine, and you? How’s everything going? I heard that you…”

‘Yildez managed to spread the word everywhere, I can assume.” She said, and I looked down at my feet.

‘I am sorry for your loss. I know that you wanted this baby badly,” I said, and she shrugged.

‘It is probably for the best. It just gets painful after a while. You know, anticipating, and wanting the child then again, I just lost it.” She said, and I nodded. It was a pain that no woman deserved to go through. “How are you anyway? I hear that Ashton got accepted here. That’s amazing.”

“I am fine. I was dropping him off to school when my mind wandered off with so many different thoughts. It seems that my feet found themselves pinned here.” I said, and she laughed. “What about you? What are you doing here?”

“I came to drop off Alexis, my little niece. You know, she has been staying in my house lately after her parents got their divorce. My brother refuses to let her live with her mother, and for know reasons.” She said, showing how disgusted she was, choosing to whisper the last part. “She isn’t very stable and even the idea of her giving birth seemed to be a

miracle to me.”

“You know, with everything that went around in the past six months, I chose to have her staying in my house whenever she was alone and her father wasn’t around. It made it easier for the two of us to stay together and her father was happier when she wasn’t with the maids all day. Plus, it made my life a little brighter, you know, having a child playing around and all.” She explained and I nodded, smiling at her.

“Pre–training before having your own little one.” I said, and she smiled. She looked down at her stomach and put her hand on it, running her finger over it for a moment.

“I doubt, after this many miscarriages, that I would be having a baby in the first place. I wish that I could, but I don’t think that it would be my reality.” She said, and I shook my head at her, not wanting her to be upset. This was the last thing that I intended for her right

now.

“You know, sometimes when you lose hope the most is when you are going to gain the one thing that you never expected. You are going to get your baby and you are going to be happy watching your child grow in front of you. You are going to love them and they are going to be happy to have their mother by their side.” I said, and she smiled. “But I never want you to think that you are not going to have a child. You are, trust that you are going to.”

“Sometimes I wonder why I never thought of trusting you as a close friend before. I

remember the two of us being so close and then when you left and came back. I wasn’t even there for you when you most probably needed me to be.” She said, looking down at her feet, avoiding my eyes. I smiled and put a hand on her shoulder, gently squeezing it. She was distracting me and though I knew that she didn’t know what I had in mind, I was thankful for that fact. At least I knew that I was going to be able to think straight before rushing into the number of things that I was going to have in mind.

“Times were different, and we were younger. The number of things that spread about us were a lot, and I can imagine that even you girls were surprised by the number of rumors that you must have heard.” I said, and she sighed. I smiled and she nodded, silently thanking me for understanding her point of view.

“Do you want us to go and drink some coffee? I mean, if you don’t have anything else to do?” She asked. I checked my watch and nodded, smiling at her.

“I have around an hour before I head off to an office. We can have a cup of coffee and a little girl’s chat until then. I can assume, if you were anything like the Bianca that I always knew, that there would be a lot that you would want to tell me,” I teased, and she laughed.

“Oh, don’t worry, I am nothing like Yildez. That woman gets all the new gossip. I am often too busy for that. But if you are interested in the tea that you are going to hear about the new relationships that have been going around lately; I have your latest of tea…”
