Cristian was interested in Serena, not her past.
But Cristian's heart went crazy with jealousy when he thought that Francis, that cursed man, had once had Serena and that Serena had even given him a son.
But Cristian still loved Serena deeply.
He had waited five years and this time, one way or another, he wanted Serena, his better half, to stay with him.
-Mr. Cristian, Mr. Cristian?
Cristian heard Luca's voice calling his name in his headphones, bringing his thoughts back to reality, and it was at that moment that his mind lingered on something.
-Mr. Cristian, I am going to investigate what Miss Serena has been going through these past five years..." Luca interjected.
-No,‖ Cristian interrupted and distracted Luca in time, -Don't be hasty, go and do what I ordered you to do."
With that said, Cristian ended the phone conversation.
Staring at the screen of his turned-off phone, Cristian thought about the shoes he had seen earlier in the shoe rack.
He had never seen Serena's son.
He wondered what Serena's child would be like, he who had been made with another man.
Would Serena have a son just like her ex-husband?
Cristian clenched his fists at the thought of that child appearing to him in the future with a face like Serena's ex-husband.
Damn it!
He was still going crazy with jealousy.
Why couldn't Serena be his in every way?
Cristian calmed down for a moment and clenched his fist.
It was better to wait for the two of them to work things out face to face.
Serena was hiding the baby well now, probably because she was worried that Cristian would not be able to accept it.
***
It was the next day when Serena woke up again. The room was quiet and she blinked as she lay on the bed, waiting a while, but no one came in.
Had Cristian gone to work?
It was possible, Serena got out of bed. Although the organ between her legs hurt when she walked, it was already much better than yesterday.
She went to her bedroom door and silently opened it, peeking through a crack outside she saw that all was quiet.
Serena opened the door and went outside to look around, finding no one downstairs.
Had Cristian returned?
A superficial sense of loss hit her, but that feeling was soon filled with another wave of emotion. Serena re-entered the room, knelt down, and began looking for yesterday's birth control pills.
She had been looking for several minutes, but still had not seen the bottle with the pill.
Strange, had Cristian taken the pill in his sleep?
Then Serena picked up her phone and made a call to Anna.
Anna was joking with her when she answered the phone.
-Serena, why haven't you been in the office the last two days?" said Anna, giggling.
Serena resisted the urge to roll her eyes and asked calmly, -Are you in the office right now? Are you free?
-Yes, in the office, I'm free now, what's up?
-I want you to buy me something, okay?
Anna answered in a very innocent tone, -Yes, what do you want to buy? I'll buy it after work and bring it to you.
-No," Serena shook her head, "I need you to go and buy it for me now, I can't go out now."
One reason was the risk of Serena being followed after leaving the house, and another was that she could not leave the house at all.
Her legs ached from taking a few steps, and even more so if she went out to buy medicine.
-Well, does it bother you right now? Are you menstruating? Then I'll go buy it right now and send it to you at home.
-Serena shook her head, it was a little difficult for her to say these things to Anna, but now she had no one else to turn to but Anna.
