Ariana pondered for a moment, about to speak, but Sarah beat her to it. “Today is Ariana’s birthday,

and someone should have prepared a feast. It’s not our turn to celebrate her birthday.”

Ariana found herself grappling with the daunting task of explaining her lack of recent communication

with Theodore to Sarah. The sight of Sarah and Aziel getting along so well cast a shadow over her

intentions to say her story today. ©

The scene of the two made her think that she couldn’t voice her concerns without jeopardizing the

pleasant atmosphere or revealing her innermost thoughts too much.

“Actually, I won’t be able to stay for dinner tonight. I have other pressing matters to attend to,” Ariana

said, pretending to be taken aback as she glanced at her watch.

“Can you believe it? It’s nearly five o’clock already! I must dash. Else, traffic will catch up with me!” ©

With her bag hastily slung over her shoulder, Ariana hurriedly left, escorted by Sarah to the door.

Just as they were about to bid farewell, Sarah’s playful demeanor dissolved into seriousness as she

asked, “What’s happened between you and Theodore?”

Ariana, in the midst of changing her shoes, raised her head in surprise upon hearing the question.

Sarah let out a sigh and guided her to sit on the porch chair. “When I was teasing you earlier, I couldn’t

help but notice a flicker of unease in your eyes. Have you two had a fight? Have you divulged the news

of your pregnancy to him?”

“You certainly have a keen eye for matters of the heart,” Ariana replied softly, feeling a twinge of

embarrassment. “It’s not a monumental issue per se. Theodore and I still have unresolved matters

between us, which have been weighing heavily onme.” ©

“I understand,” Sarah empathized, removing a lollipop from her pocket and offering it to Ariana.

“Indulging in some sweetness might bring you a modicum of solace.”

“Thank you.” Ariana accepted the lollipop, placing it in her mouth before speaking slowly. “I haven’t

revealed my pregnancy to him yet. I’m grappling with how to broach the subject.”

“While I may not comprehend your reasons for withholding such news from Theodore, I’ve always

stood by your side as a friend,” Sarah reassured, wearing a warm smile as she draped an arm around

Ariana’s shoulder. “But as someone several years your senior, I feel compelled to advise you to

confront this head-on.

Evading problems only begets more complications. Regardless of the outcome, at least you won’t be

plagued by regret. I once hesitated and turned away from Aziel due to our age disparity and the scars

of past relationships. However, his unwavering persistence touched me deeply. And now, I find myself

in a relationship that embodies my long-held dreams!”

Sarah’s joy was palpable as she continued, “It’s the first time I’ve experienced a sense of contentment

and stability. He has brought me immense happiness. Often, the power to choose resides within our

own hands, Ariana. I hope you can grant yourself a chance. I can see how much you care for

Ariana found Sarah’s words to be remarkably insightful.

Upon leaving Sarah’s residence, Ariana headed downtown. Throughout her journey, she couldn’t help

but keep looking at her phone, hoping for a message from Theodore. However, only a notification from

the restaurant she was called by yesterday greeted her eyes every time. The message contained the

detailed address and appointment time: six o’clock in the evening. But alas, it was already half past six!

She had made it explicitly clear last night that she wouldn’t go there. Now that the scheduled time had

passed, Theodore, being the proud man he was, might have already left. Or maybe he hadn’t shown

up at all!

A wave of sadness washed over Ariana, yet Sarah’s words echoed in her mind, reminding her of the

futility of avoidance.

Should she go to the restaurant?

As the clock struck seven in the evening, Eleymond buzzed with vibrant energy. The entrance to Blue

Night Manor welcomed a continuous stream of luxury cars.

Ariana stood hesitantly at the gate of the manor. It had been an hour past their agreed meeting time.

Even if Theodore had shown up, he surely would have left by now.
