Chapter 46
Aria sat on their old bed, sobbing. She could not believe that all that had really happened, she was now a divorcee. Well, at least it was better than being a single mother, or was it?
Rosie walked into the room with a tray of pancakes, she came and sat beside Aria.
“Come on girl, I can’t believe you are still crying over that rich brat, there is no need to do that,” she consoled.
“If anyone told me that he would do this to me, I would have never believed. How could he?” she said amidst tears.
Rosie pulled her closer to her chest and patted her on the back. “It is fine gal, he doesn’t matter at all. You still have your life and your baby, he would regret doing this to you and he would come to realize that he has lost a treasure. But tell me Aria, did you read the divorce papers?” she queried.
“Um… line by line, no! But I just glanced through it, why asking?”
“Well, we both know how divorce works, he has to transfer a certain percentage of his wealth and properties to you,” Rosie informed her.
Aria sighed, “I don’t care about his wealth or properties sis, all I wanted was him, and since I cant have him, I can at least keep our baby,” she replied.
Rosie let go of her suddenly and wrinkled her eyebrows, “You don’t want what rightfully belongs to you? How do you intend to give your child a good life then? You need to claim what the constitution says is yours, and what if Oliver tries to claim custody of the child?”
“Yes, he might try to do that, but I won’t let another woman train my child, especially that Asian witch, that is why I am leaving this city.” She announced.
“What? You want to run away?” Rosie asked with wide eyes.
Aria sighed and stood up, she walked from one end of the room to the other, then she wiped the tears off her eyes. “Yes sis, that is the best thing to do, I need to leave this city for good, I don’t have a life here anymore.”
“What are you saying Aria? You want to leave me here? You want to leave all the memories you have and flee. Why not fight Aria, fight for the custody of your child, fight for the things that you rightfully own. You fought against Oliver before in the legal way and you won, you can always do it again,” Rosie urged.
Aria shook her head and walked to the window, she opened the curtains and looked out. “No sis, sometimes you don’t have to fight, you just run, because it is the best option. I know that bit doesn’t sound logical, but running away from your problems can be the solution at times.”
Rosie knew her friend very well, once she spoke like this, her mind had been made up. There was little she could say or do to change it.
“Okay, since you have decided to leave me, it’s fine… but where do you plan to go?” she asked.
Aria turned around and walked back to the bed. “It’s not like that sis, believe me this is very difficult for me as well, I don’t know how I would survive without you because you have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I love you more than you can imagine and I am really going to miss you a lot.”
“Okay, enough of that, if you make me emotional, then you are never going to leave this city because I won’t let you go. Just tell me where you plan to go,” Rosie requested
Aria smiled softly, and then cleaned the tears off her eyes again. “I am still thinking about it, I need to see my grandmother first, the only possible place I could think of right now is London, I have a distant relative there, I could lap with them till I am able to stand on my feet.”
Rosie sighed heavily, “alright Aria, if this is really what you want, then I won’t stop you. Just make sure you are happy, because if you are not then I would come there myself and drag you back, I don’t care the distance,” she warned.
Aria chuckled, “Of course, I know you would do that and even more.” She came closer and hugged Rosie.
They remained in each other’s embrace for a while, then Rosie let go.
“So, what do you plan to do there? Start a business or something?” Rosie asked.
“Well, I want to pursue my dreams. Once Princess is up to age, I will enroll for modeling, I will work towards achieving my childhood dreams.”
“Alright Aria, I believe in you and I know you will make it big, you will certainly make me proud,” Rosie replied and smiled.
“Thank you sis, what would I ever do without you?”
“Come on, I am sure you can survive without me, unlike me who can’t do without you. Bear it in mind that I would call you every day, I can’t do without hearing your voice.” She uttered.
“Same here sis, but I am still here so don’t get so emotional yet,” she laughed.
“True, now come here, let’s feed on these pancakes, I am starving!” Rosie yelled.
“Oh, me too,” Aria replied and jumped on the bed. “Wait, where is my daughter?” she suddenly asked and furrowed her eyebrows.
“oh, I sold her to get these pancakes,” Rosie replied nonchalantly.
“What??” Aria screamed and Rosie burst into laughter.
“Relax sis, she is sleeping in the sitting room. You didn’t think I would do that, did you?”
“Well, my best friend is a psycho, there is nothing literally impossible for her to do,” Aria replied and they laughed.
“One more thing girl, please don’t let what happened between Oliver and I affect your relationship with Sammy, I think you two would make a good couple.”
“Huh? And how would I know that he won’t behave like his best friend, I mean they are close friends and they say that birds of the same feathers flock together,” Rosie argued.
“Well, not exactly… for example, we flock together but I am not as crazy as you,” Aria replied and giggled.
“You keep calling me crazy,” Rosie grumbled.
“Hahaha… isn’t that what you are? Don’t be sad, I love you crazy,” Aria replied and they laughed.
“Alright, I won’t break up with him. What am I even saying, it is not like we are even dating, I mean we haven’t even kissed, forget kissing, he hasn’t confessed his feelings to me even though I know that they are there.” Rosie complained.
“Then just do what I said the last time, take the first step… I am sure it would be no big deal for a crazy girl like you,” Aria teased.
“You are right, I should probably grab him the next time I see him and ride him to death,” she said with an evil smile plastered on her face.
“Um… wait, I didn’t say that,” Aria gasped.
“Too late, I already have a plan.” Rosie smirked.
The two of them kept chattering as they stuffed their mouths with pancakes. That was the kind of best friend everyone deserved, because when there is a Rosie, there are absolutely no problems.
She was not just a best friend, she was a sister, a guardian, always there to shield Aria like an angel. Someone who would never give up on her.
Aria has chosen a new path in life? But was she making the right choice? Where would this new path lead her? What happens to her marriage, her love life? The man of her dreams.
Would she be able to forget him so easily and move on? That is a question only the future can answer!
