Chapter 25 "Yansen"

   

"I am not working as of now, but I need to gather details for me. Okay, thanks, appreciate it. Goodbye." Tara says that then the monitor screen went black.

Checking emails over her laptop on the desk and massaging her temple to make it feel better. Going to the treatment for the headache and blurry vision for almost a week gives her the ease to work properly; whatever Tara can finish on her day, the medications and tests are working on her effectively., making her able to do the work before the accident, but there is a limitation this time while she is in her treatment.

"I'm sorry, but I bring coffee for you." Jaime stood on the door and cleared her throat, making way for her presence.

"Thank you; you don't have to, Jaime, and how long have you been there standing?" Tara asked, looking back on the door.

'Uh..less than a minute, we have rules, right? If we were inside one of the rooms, it must be open," Jaime reminds her.

"What can I say? It's weird, but policy is a policy, right?" Tara said that after sipping her coffee, Jaime leans on the edge of the table facing her. Tara decided to squeeze her hand gently while Jaime looked at her. Until she moved closer, she dragged her office chair to Jaime, hugging her, finding herself sobbing on her lap. Jaime brushed her hair while leaning on her office table, holding dearly, allowing Tara to release all the pain she felt in the situation.

"I'm so sorry, Jaime. I'm so sorry," she said, whispering. Jaime kisses her head while listening to her. Jaime showed compassion for Tara, wiping her tears from her face.

"You know I do love you, Jaime, and it really hurts," she said, still tears running her cheeks.

"I know...Tara.. I know..just cry, do not hide it.. we were here for you, me, and our baby," Jaime replied, staring blankly at her, even though she didn't know how to handle it all. Tara stood up between her legs, hugging Jaime, allowing her to burry her face on Tara's chest, showing dominance towards her.

"I don't know where to place myself, Jaime." showing vulnerability, lowering her head in front of her.

"Hey, you don't have to bother yourself that way, Tara..." looking up, meeting Jaime's gaze whispering while tracing her jaw line. Tara stood up, facing Jaime, hugging.

"Hi there, baby. How's your day? I heard you went outside with mommy. How is it, huh? Did you like it?" Tara caresses the baby's head while talking.

"You're a big girl now. Why do you grow so fast? One day you'll be arguing with us funny, isn't it?" Tara did not know Jaime, listening behind her, biting her lip, and holding herself back not to react to the moment.

"Wait, why is it warm? Oh my god, you peed! That's an absolutely great response on the arguing part, eh?" Tara laughed so hard, seeing the white pajamas turn yellow.

"Excuse me, let me change her," Jaime said out of nowhere.

"Wait, how long have you been there...?"

"Long enough to hear how you speak to our baby," Jaime said bluntly.

"Can I stay? I want to know how to change babies nappies."

"Okay... and tomorrow I'll be at the studio. I'll be quick with her; it's her appointment to be photographed. I need to work too."

"Please accept my child support, legal married or not. You don't have to do this, making yourself tired and stressed. Do you pause and think of the baby for just a second? And you're breastfeeding her, and a month ago you had a c-section. You need to heal more months to do so, please, Jaime. Just for now. I may have no rights to say Jaime, but it's all good intentions." Tara pleaded with these concerns.
