Teresa finally arrived at the entrance to Rosary Estates.

When she opened the door, a dusty, unused smell hit her. She quickly tidied up her and Michael’s rooms, and by the time she finished, it was already dark. Only then did Teresa head over to Miriam’s place to pick up Michael.

As soon as the door opened, Michael launched himself into Teresa’s arms. “Mom!” he shouted, “Miriam, I told you it was Mom coming!”

Miriam was totally surprised. “I can’t believe it! Michael kept insisting he heard your footsteps. I told him you weren’t back yet; I thought you were on the next flight.”

“Nope, I’m back. I just stopped by Rosary Estates to clean up a bit first,” Teresa said, ruffling Michael’s hair. It felt so good to be home with her son. “You two must be starving waiting for me. Let’s go eat–my treat.”

“No way! You just got back; how can we let you pay?” retorted Miriam.

“It’s fine, really. Dinner’s on me. Let’s go to Grove Bistro,” Teresa insisted, grateful for Miriam having been looking after Michael. “Let’s call Edward too. Where is he?”

Miriam replied, “He went home at lunchtime. His mom called him. I’m guessing Irene told her about us.”

Teresa rolled her eyes. “Honestly, Irene just can’t stand me. And since you’re my friend, she can’t stand you either. Now it’s my fault you and Edward are having issues.”

“Don’t worry about it,” Miriam said, grabbing Teresa’s hand with a big grin. “It’s not your fault. Stop overthinking it. Let’s go eat anyway.”

“Alright,” Teresa agreed. She didn’t want to say more in front of Michael, so the three of them headed out for dinner.

Somehow Teresa thought of Cheryl. Not sure if Cheryl’s number was still the same, Teresa logged into her old WhatsApp and reached out to Cheryl.

Cheryl replied almost instantly: [I’m in Lonisburg. I can’t come back. My belly’s huge, and I’m about to give birth.]

[Any luck finding the baby’s dad?] asked Teresa.

Teresa: [You’re all alone? What if your water breaks? There’s no one around to help you. That’s not safe.]

Teresa didn’t say much more. With Cheryl’s personality, she wouldn’t be able to keep this a secret for long. Once the baby was born, the Lynn family would definitely find out, and things would get messy.

Jennifer was silent for a few seconds. “I’ll just pretend I don’t know. Otherwise, I’ll get dragged into it too.”
