Scaled Love

Chapter Five.

Jealousy/Moving On.

Moving on is something that almost everyone does after a breakup or just from life. Letting go doesn't mean that you are forgetting where you came from.

Unknown Pov

Sending those documents was the best thing I have ever done. She deserves to be happy and I know that Liam isn't her happiness but Theo is.

I know many people will question it but I have seen how Theo was when he learned that she left.

He was blinded by lust for someone who would not love him as she did and would.

Theo and Arian must reunite one way or the other.

"Come in", I open the door letting my messager in. My trusted person who I could count on.

"She has received it but Liam saw it too...."

"That is exactly what I wanted. For him to know that he doesn't have a chance with her" I explained to him.

"You know when she finds out about this. She will kill me", they tell me.

"Don't worry, when she comes to know, I will be there to explain everything to her and she will forgive you".

"So when do you want me to send the other copy to Theo?", he asks knowing that was the final move we needed.

"In a week", I tell him.

"Okay, I will do that. I hope that this will work otherwise Arian will not know the real meaning of happiness and Love. Plus she will kill me if this doesn't work out", they tell me.

"You must love her a lot?".

"Yes, I do with everything I am".

"Then it won't fail, besides a little bird will tell Theo about the fundraiser that will be held. And Theo will do the rest".

Writer's Pov

After they finished talking, they left to go on separate ways. It has been a few days since Arian received a copy of the unsigned divorce papers.

She kept wondering who might they be.

"Theo must have sent them", Mandy tells her.

"Mandy, I haven't seen Theo ever since I arrived from Spain with you guys. I don't think it is him", Arian tells her best friend.

"Hello Ladies", both Liam and Mike said to them.

"Hey, where did you guys go?" Mandy asks them.

"Well, my dear wife I had an appointment with someone, they needed me to see a house that I wanted to buy for us....", Mike tells them while Liam doesn't say anything.

"Really? That's amazing. We could go and see it later".

"Yeah, we can. All of us".

Arian was happy for her friend but she couldn't help but think about who sent her those documents. As soon as she turned to call the waiter.

She saw the man that broke her.

The man she once loved.

The man who was supposed everything for her.

Theo felt someone staring at him when he turned to see who it was. He couldn't believe it.

Arian.

Her hazel eyes scanned him from top to bottom. What he didn't know was that he was doing the same thing with his grey eyes.

She looks different from the last time I saw her.

"Hey, babe. Our table is ready", Veronica tells Theo but she notices that he is looking at Arian she has to go there and make her feel jealous.

"Arian, hey", Veronica called out to her sister who looked up to see Theo and Veronica coming towards their table.

"Great, now my morning is ruined", Mandy murmurs to herself.

"Stop, Veronica. We can't join them. Come on, I have to go. I have an important meeting to attend. Enjoy your breakfast," Theo tells Veronica pulling her away from Arian.

"Hey, are you alright?" Mike asks Arian.

"Yeah I am okay", she smiles at him.

"Who was that with your sister?" Liam asks.

"That's Theo...."

"Your husband?" he asks only to be interrupted by Mandy.

"You mean, Ex-husband", she corrected him.

"Okay, I understand".

"Are you dating Arian? Or playing with her? If you are I suggest you let her go before you hurt her as he did", Mandy shouts at Liam.

"Mandy walked out of the restaurant angry at what Liam said about Theo.

Maybe she was wrong about him being the one for Arian. Her best friend deserves the world in her life. Not guys who don't know what they want until they end up losing it.

"Mandy, wait up", Arian called out to her as she was about to get into the taxi.

"I am sorry, Arian. I just...."

"Hey, listen it is okay. Don't worry about it. Let's leave and go somewhere just the two of us. Just like old times okay? I have something to tell you. You would believe it", Arian explained to her about the divorce papers.

"Who would send them? Do you think it is Theo?" asks Mandy.

"I don't think so. If it was him he would have confronted me and besides today was the first I have seen him since I arrived".

"Arian be honest with me. The way you looked at him is the way someone who is in love. Are you still in love with him? I promise not to judge you by your answer but you have to be sure about it", Mandy tells her.

"Mandy, first love will always remain even though for some it might not work out. As for having feelings for him, I don't know the answer to that. All I know is that I can't be with someone who will end up hurting me. As for Liam, we are still getting to know each other".

"Okay, I am always here for you when you need to vent but for now I am craving a chocolate gluten-free muffin", Mandy tells her licking her lips.

"Only you. I know where we can find them".       

What they don't know is that the person who sent the papers to Arian is at Theo's office doing the same.

"Hey, beautiful. I have a delivery to Mr. Walcott", the person tells the receptionist.

"Okay, I will take it to him", she tells them.

The receptionist called Becka who is Theo's secretary to come and collect the envelope.

"Thanks, Lucy."

As soon as she arrived at Theo's office, she knocked on the door.

"Sir, this came for you", Becka tells him handing him the envelope.

"Who is it from?" he asked her.

"No sender address sir".

"You may leave".

As Theo opened the envelope. What was inside shocked him as he didn't want to believe what he was reading.

There were the divorce papers that Arian had signed two years ago.

He had thought that he sent them the same day Arian left. Theo remembered signing them.

This has to be a joke.

Inside the envelope there was a typed note that said;

"Second Chances are rare. When they come, you can't give them up. This is yours. Take or leave it. It is your choice".

Should I take it or let her go?
