Chapter Nineteen
Lucy realized she was thinking in a different direction and looked at Marianne who was waiting for her to get what she really meant.
“Oh, you meant by the opposite sex didn’t you?" Lucy raised an eyebrow as she corrected herself.
"All I can say is never trust a man that is born on his birthday,” she smiled and turned to the stove to check on her baked potatoes.
That aroma reminded Marianne of the time that she wanted to surprise Greg with a special dinner on a Saturday evening, dressed in a sulky night dress with the scent of a fresh morning glory flower. How she loved to treat him, with the hopes that he would one day truly love her and return the favor. Another tear formed within her eye before finally rolling down her cheek. She wiped her eye fast enough before Lucy turned around again to see her.
“Are you okay?” Lucy asked, she tilted her head on one side.
“Yeah, uhm….I was just wondering, should

Lucy walked into the house quietly just so she wouldn’t alarm Marianne. She had been through so much already.“I’m not saying I pity her”, a voice inside Lucy just kept telling her and reminding her that Marianne deserved better. She didn’t deserve to be dictated by a mere man who sought nothing but the satisfaction of his own greed. Marianne took that situation better than Lucy would. She just wondered what miracle waited to happen from the Great God that will put a smile on her face, one that would carry ten thousand moons without the help of a pampas man.Marianne was sleeping on the sofa with Rose wrapped in her arms when Lucy stepped into the living room.

Lucy returned to the kitchen to finish up with a small dinner while Marianne set the table in advance.“It’s just the three of us now, when will your brother return?” that question from Marianne gave Lucy’s body a different reaction,“does she really need him here or is she just asking out of curiosity?” Lucy thought to herself.“Well. I could only say that he will be here soon. Why do you ask?” Lucy asked almost sounding a little suspicious like she was hiding something. It became more obvious because she giggled right after she gave that statement.“No reason, it would just be nice to have a fourth person at the table of four, or maybe the little guy growing inside of me is enough to make up for a number four”, Marianne smiled as she wiped the forks and placed them on the side of the table, realizing that she had a little person inside of her at that moment made her rub her tummy.Lucy w

“Hey, don't be afraid. I just called to tell you that I still love you, and I miss you a lot”, the voice sounded so familiar that it set her heart racing,"could this be one of my exes coming back to haunt me, God no", she thought to herself.Reminiscing about her past love life last night wasn’t her actually saying that she wanted to go down that road again, Jesus. She had patients to look after.“Who is this? This some kind of a joke?” she stammered through her sentence and that made the ‘mysterious guy’ laugh out loud at the sound of her trembling voice, he knew that she was curious and not happy about it so he just came clean.“Chill out sis, it’s just me, your favorite brother”, He laughed even harder after saying this and she could only roll her eyes as she took a deep breath to resuscitate herself from the horrible thoughts she just had.“Not anymore dummy.

She bent her head down and a memory hit her in a way she couldn't hide.Suddenly, her mother was calling her with excitement in her voice,“Your father wrote to you again! I found a letter in the mailbox”, she walked down the stairs from her room and found a place to sit at the dining room table,waiting for mother to lay the letters down so she could identify which one belonged to father.
