My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna) novel Chapter 79

Perhaps it was due to the heat from recent days, a thunderstorm broke out outside.

The bathroom was deathly silent. I thought Hendrix was angry which played a part in this. After a while, I found out he wasn't.

He calmed down and straightened himself. Looking at me, he said, "Rest well."

Then, he turned around and left.

He was really whimsical indeed.

When Monique walked in, I was still in a daze on the bathroom floor. Seeing me in such a deplorable state, she exclaimed, "Arianna, do you not want to live anymore? Why are you doing this to yourself? Even if you don't love yourself anymore, at the very least, think of the baby!"

She carried me out of the bathroom. I sat somewhat rigidly on the bed and let her dry my hair.

After a long while, I asked Monique, "Do you think a man will fall in love with a woman because of a child?"

Monique paused, thought for a moment, and answered, "It's possible. After all, many women would fall in love with someone they didn't love for the same reason."

That was true, there had been many instances of this.

"But what if the child is gone?" I asked, a little

confused.

Monique was shocked. She was frightened by my response and asked, "What are you thinking about? It's been two months. You must have the baby. Please don't have any stray thoughts."

I raised a hand to my face, feeling a little frustrated. Recently, I had become easily flustered and irritable.

Monique dried my hair, put me to bed, and comforted me to sleep.

For the rest of the night, Hendrix had never appeared again. However, the storm rumbled on outside the window. Monique was afraid that I couldn't fall asleep, so she stayed with me.

It was true that I couldn't fall asleep, but it was not because I was afraid. It was just that I was so agitated that I didn't fall asleep until the wee hours of the night.
