I Won't Let You Go Again

Chapter 21 - One choice, two options

Hannah's eyes widened.

(Hannah) "You're pregnant?" – she asked quietly.

Martha nodded.

(Hannah) "For how long?"

(Martha) "About... three weeks."

Then, her friend frowned.

(Hannah) "But we've only been back a little more than a month..."

Martha groaned, rubbing her forehead.

(Martha) "We were in my place. Talking and drinking a little and one thing led to another and we..."

(Hannah) "Fucked." – she finished.

Martha glared at the blonde woman.

(Martha) "Yes." – she mumbled.

(Hannah) "So that's what he was talking about when he said he pushed a little in the beginning."

(Martha) "It wasn't his fault. We both screwed up that night."

Hannah paused for a few seconds, getting ready her next question.

(Hannah) "Do you want to keep the baby?"

Martha looked into her best friend's eyes.

(Martha) "I don't know... That's why I need to leave. I need to think this through on my own."

(Hannah) "But he's the father, you know. He deserves to know."

(Martha) "No, I know that. But I need to figure myself out first."

(Hannah) "Okay..." – then she looked at her wrist watch. – "You need to pack your things, then. I'm going to Christian's office, I need to tell him I'm leaving and that Marco is staying with him."

(Martha) "I'll call Matt telling I'm leaving too."

Hannah nodded and they both stood up from the booth, making their way outside.

(Hannah) "Toni and I will go through your house around four in the afternoon. The flight is at six."

Martha nodded and they both said their goodbyes to each other. Hannah got inside her car and Toni drove to the building his boss had his office in.

When they finally got there, he walked out and opened her door.

(Hannah) "I may take a little while, so you can park the car and go inside."

Toni nodded and got inside the car, only when Hannah walked through the front doors. She looked around and noticed Matt in the corner, talking on the phone. So she decided she would talk to him afterwards. She made her way to the elevators and when she reached Christian's floor, she walked to his office.

(Addison) "What're you doing here?!" – she asked once her eyes landed on Hannah.

(Hannah) "Shut the fuck up." – she didn't even spare a glance at the dark brown haired woman.

Addison's jaw fell but she didn't have the chance to answer back because Hannah was already inside the office, not even bothering to knock.

Christian was on his phone, talking to one of his associates in Italy, when his eyes snapped to the door, watching Hannah get inside and closing the wooden material behind her.

(Christian) "Sí, lo so. Grazie, comunque." (Yes, I know. Thank you, though.)

He hung up the phone and fixed his tie, looking into her tired eyes.
