Dilemma

(SOFIA'S POV)

After storming out of the room in anger, I grabbed my car keys from the coffee table downstairs and drove out, my destination clear in mind-my parents' place.

I needed someone to talk to, and my mother was that someone. The argument with Jared had shaken me to my core. The emotion in his eyes looked like hatred, and I couldn't bear it.

These past few years, my relationship with Jared had deteriorated, and it had even escalated in the past months with him distancing himself. But never had he asked me to get out of his life. To me, that was a warning bell, and I was not going to take it lightly.

My grip tightened on the steering wheel, I couldn't lose Jared. Not now, not ever.

I arrived at my parent's place and my mother's surprised face welcomed me.

"Sofia, dear, I didn't know you were coming."

"Yeah, it was Impromptu," I replied.

Then I scanned the area, before turning back to her. "Where's Dad?"

"He went to the hospital for his doctor's appointment."

Relief washed over me. I didn't want my father to be present for this conversation.
