Kimberly and I spent a while eating our fill on the table. Stacy was surprised at our behaviour, but I did not care; I was hungry and needed to eat. “Don’t you have any sympathy,” Stacy asked me, drying her tears, and I looked at her with my fork in my mouth. The bacon was delicious. I looked at Caleb, and he was still angry. Kimberly was trying not to laugh. 

“I am hungry,” I said to her, which was an obvious answer. I was pregnant, for goddess’ sake, and Bart was yet to buy groceries for the left wing’s kitchen. 

Stacy got up and adjusted her clothes. She excused herself from the lounge leaving Caleb, Kimberly and me. 

“Now that Luke and Caleb are back, can we go back to your house? I do not want to have to deal with Stacy, Tia,” Kimberly said, and I shook my head. “I didn’t bring us here because I missed the Mansion, Kim. Soldiers are living on these grounds. We are fully protected here, and no innocent bystander would get hurt in case of an attack. We have neighbours there, and the houses are open. This is to keep our neighbours and us safe. Luis won’t attack us here. He wouldn’t dare,” I explained, and Caleb nodded. “Quick thinking Tia. Good job,” he commended my effort, and I nodded at him. Just then, Luke returned. He was calm and peaceful. I was a bit worried, but then he smiled and bent to kiss me. “How did it go?” Caleb asked him, and Luke sat beside me and began to dish his food. “I have made peace with father. Aunt Ummul doesn’t like him, and the feeling is mutual between them. They both blame each other for what happened to my mother, but Father and I are in a good place.” Luke replied, and Caleb relaxed a bit. “Is he really done?” Caleb asked, and I knew it was asking for his mother. 

“He is done with your mother,” Luke replied, and Caleb did not react because he expected it. 

“So he is sending her back?” Caleb asked, and Luke shook his head. 

“I convinced him to send her to our house in town after your wedding,” Luke said, and Kimberly began to cough. It was unexpected. Caleb’s eyes bulged. “Come on, you two, this shouldn’t be an issue anymore,” Luke said, and I pinched his thigh.

aren’t immortals, so every second counts,” Luke said to them, and they were silent. I understood his reason, and looking at Kimberly, she understood too. The question wasn’t about where her heart lay; it was if she was willing to take a leap of faith with the same man that broke her heart and humiliated her. Caleb might show his love right now, but he did show her how much he cared once for her to give it up to him and get pregnant. It will be hard for her to come around. We ate in silence and soon began to hear noises coming from the hallway. Our sensitive ears were able to pick up the noise from that distance. It was Stacy’s voice. Caleb and Luke Stood up, and I had to see what was happening.
