Aria

I held the test results in my hands. My arms shook. I stared at the words until they became blurry in my eyes. Rethinking my decision but it was too late. This felt like throwing away everything Zachary and I shared—our quiet nights, our bond that once made the world, my world, feel right. I did not want to hurt his feelings. Not ever. But sometimes things had to happen, even when they pierced the heart deeply. They were a means of survival.

    ZacharyEver since Quinn came back, with all the chaos of the pregnancy and everything that followed, Aria had never once ignored me when I felt the need to have her by my side. She always made sure I didn't feel neglected, not even for once. But this day was different. She didn't respond to my message. She read the message and then few minutes later, I watched her grab her coat and head out the door . I stood there in that corner watching her leave. Not anger. Curiosity ignited in me. I messaged, because I was going to give her the property documents to the stores, when I told her at first, she didn't believe me but she didn't say much, she felt I was just teasing but I meant every statement I uttered so far as it wa directed towards her.What could make her be in that much of a hurry?Something was off. I grabbed my keys without thinking twice.I saw fear across her face when she glanced back once, her eyes darting like she was scared of being followed. I saw nervousness in the way

    Aria30 minutes... 30 whole minutes. That was how long I sat there, my fingers tapping the table every and any time.I kept glancing at the door, then at my phone. At some point, I pushed my chair back a little, ready to stand up and leave it all behind. I started to question myself, real questions. Why am I even here? But just as I started to rise up, the door swung open.Mikasa walked in gracefully, her steps loud that eyes turned to her as she made her way in. She scanned the room once, and when her eyes landed on me, a sly smile curved her lips. "You're that eager to hear what I have to say?" she asked, dragging a chair out, she sat into, crossing her legs.I leaned back, crossing my arms. The orange juice in front of me suddenly tasted sour in my mouth, "Get to it," I said, my voice flat. I wasn't in the mood for games or small talk. Not today. "Calm down," she replied, reaching across without asking. She took a slow sip from my orange juice, her eyes never leaving mine. The ca

    AriaThree days. Three long days without Zachary. Each day without him felt like hell... three days that felt like eternity. I paced around everywhere, craving his touch. “You have to stop avoiding me,” I had warned him firmly, his palm had come up then, warm, brushing my cheek with gentleness. He nodded, just a small dip of his head, eyes locked on mine like he was afraid I might vanish if he blinked. “I’m not avoiding you, Aria. It’s complicated,” he had replied softly."It's not, you thought you had a chance and now you feel you don't anymore."“About us… we’ll talk about it when the child is born,” I had told him, placing my hand over his on my. He nodded again, almost like a child accepting a rule he didn’t fully understand, then he pulled me close. His arms wrapped around me tight, and he buried his face in my neck, breathing me in slowly. Breathing me in? He was literally sniffing me. “You smell like home,” he whispered against my skin.“I missed you a lot,” he murmured.

    Zachary"The child is not yours." She had announced.I expected it, but I kept convincing myself it couldn't be. I pushed the truth away until I could no longer run."Congratulations." I had answered mockingly.Now I sat at the bar, our conversation echoed in my head , over and over, refusing to go away. For once, I had let the walls I built crumble. I had stood there vulnerable, voice cracking as I begged her to choose me—just this once. I promised to love the child as my own, to give it everything. My hands had trembled when I reached for her, but she stepped back. She didn't choose me. I saw the hesitation in her eyes, the way her fingers twisted together, the slight tremble in her lip before she looked away. Fuck the prenup. She told me she loved me, and for the first time, it sounded sincere. Yet she still couldn't choose me. She said she wished she could. She said she wanted to. I offered her everything right there: all the money, the properties transfer to her name, the cars

    AriaSeveral texts. Several calls. Every spare moment, my fingers flew across the phone screen, reaching for Zachary. The messages sat unread.I was dying inside, piece by piece, while Quinn hovered. He kept brushing my hair back, touching my shoulder, murmuring gentle nonsense as if his warmth could fix the rage within me.“Stop… just stop it already,” I had cautioned, my voice cracking more than I wanted.“Pregnancy mood swings, I guess.” He returned with a smile.Zachary…I waited the entire night. I paced first, then sank onto the couch, pulling a blanket tight around my whole body. My legs shook with exhaustion and fear until they gave out. Sleep came in. But no Zachary. Not a single sign of him. The only place he could be was at his office.This would be my first time at his office. I didn’t know what to expect, the people, or whether he would even look at me. But deep down, I knew I had to go. I needed to stand in front of him, even if only for a second, even if his eyes staye

Three months pregnant—that's what should be on it." I instructed Kleopatra, my chest tightened."Are you sure about this?" She asked again. It was not really a question. Her tone carried worry, like she tried one last time to pull me back. I could picture her face in my mind, sympathy and care mixing."Yes, for now, that's the only solution." I responded. I heard her heavy sigh through the phone, as if she carried part of my burden too."It would hurt him." She muttered, but I heard her clearly.Him.

    AriaI stepped into the living room and stopped short. My gaze swept across the floor, taking in the scattered flowers and the glittery decorations clinging to the walls. My eyes widened before I could stop them.Zachary.The thought hit me hard, but I pushed it aside immediately. This was the livi

    ARIA POV"Ding!" The doorbell rangFor a moment, I didn’t move–didn’t blink.Quinn, on the other hand, was already on his feet."I'll get it," he said quickly, a childish eagerness creeping into his voice.I wasn't ready to witness another dramatic reunion but I guess I had to anyways."Of course."
