Aline didn’t know what to say. She tried to please Rena but Rena seemed insusceptible. But it was normal, given her identity as an affluent lady.
Aline called the waiter, feeling embarrassed. She asked Rena, “What coffee would you like? The usual Mandheling?”
Rena remained silent, so Cecilia said, “Just bring her some water. She’s pregnant.”
The waiter politely agreed and left.

Rena silently acknowledged her comment.
Then, Aline continued as she softly murmured, “I was once pregnant too. I used to be a mother.”
Her comment struck a nerve with Vera. She couldn’t contain her frustration so she straightened up, and let out a curse.
“How dare you mention that baby? Aline, if it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have ended up like that with Joseph!”
Looking at her, Aline asked, “Aren’t you happy now? Isn’t that enough?”
“These are two different things, okay
Vera’s chest heaved violently as she gritted her teeth.
“You lied to Joseph and gave birth to a baby without a father! Your apologies are useless! Oh, and what about the baby? Did you throw it away or strangle it to death

However, Vera was so angry that she ended up gently shaking off her friend’s hand.
In the cozy cafe, Aline was overwhelmed with embarrassment. She muttered, her voice quivering, “Vera, that’s all in the past. I have come to a realization that I have done a lot of awful things to hurt you all. Is this the reason why you won’t give me a second chance? Can’t you forgive me?”
Vera stomped her foot stubbornly and yelled, “I won’t forgive you for as long as I live!”
Her raging temper had taken over her rational thinking. In the end, Vera wasn’t able to remain civil with the woman in front of her.
Soon, Vera, Rena and Cecilia left.
As the coffee was served, Aline was left sitting there as she watched her coffee grow cold.
