78 A Letter From The Enemy 

Tia. 

When Luke left, I turned to go upstairs, and Kimberly called out to me. I knew I grumbled a bit because I was sleepy, but it wasn’t deliberate. I tried to look at her, and her eyes indicated she heard me. 

“Sorry, Kim. It’s just that Luke woke me up from sleep and…” I said, and she smiled at me. 

“Your hormones are all about the place?” She asked, and I nodded. 

“Been there. It gets better after your first trimester. You just have to hang in there.” she said and was about to turn when I asked her why she called out to me initially. She was reluctant to speak, but I assured her it was okay, and my grumbling had nothing to do with her. 

“I was hoping Emma and I could stay with you in your room,” she said, and I was surprised. 

“It’s just that since I had Emma, I have not been alone. I do not want to miss him too much,” she confessed, and I began to laugh. 

“Come on,” I said, inviting her and heading to my room. I heard her footsteps on the stairs, so I knew she was following. 

I waited for her by the door. Emma was sleeping, so I took her, placed her on the bed, and laid down next to her. I planned on sleeping too, and I hoped Kimberly did not mind. 

“You can watch the television. Michelle will soon be here. Link here to serve us in the room. I want to catch up on my sleep.” I said, and she came to lay on the other side of the bed, so Emma was in the middle. 

“I might fall asleep too, Tia. The beds in the house are too comfortable,” she confessed, and I giggled. 

“I thought the ones at the mansion were better,” I said, and she shook her head.

I do not want to live in your shadow or have to compete with you for his heart. That is why I haven’t said yes,” She said, and her words touched me, and I sat up.
