I Can't Let You Go

Unexpected

"No. She arrived yesterday evening. But... Kit still doesn't call me and I have no idea what is going on" Emilia was walking on the street. She just finished the filming for that day. It was late at night and she needed to talk with someone.
"Don't worry. I am sure Kit did what he had to do, maybe he just... couldn't call you yet." Lola answered to her.
"I don't know. I just have a ... bad feeling and I ... cannot just write to him, and I hate it." Em sighed.
"You think he did not break up with her?"
"I don't know what should I think." Em stopped and looked to the other side of the street. She was standing against Vaudeville Theater. She knew the play must ends at that time and she was right. Many people started to leave the entrance.
"Baby gurl. Don't worry. Everything will be fine... Do you wanna come out?" Lola asked her in the phone.
"I... call you back, okay?" Em answered and put the phone down. She took a deep breath and walked across the street. She decided to go to the backstage and check him. Before she could enter someone caught her shoulders.

"Emilia? Hi!" Rose was looking at her with a huge smile on her face. "You were inside? I did not see you." she leaned closer and hugged her.
"Ahm." Emilia was frozen. Totally. She couldn't breath. She couldn't answer.
"I am so glad to see you. I know... I was a... ahm a real bitch with you lately. So sorry about that." She was still smiling. She was... happy. What the fuck is going on? Kit... did not ... he was a coward again? He betrayed her? Her mind was racing.
"Emilia are you okay?" Rose asked.
"Sure." She tried to smile. "Sure. Just tired. I... was filming all day long."
"Yeah the Christmas romance movie. I really can't wait to see it. And... what are you doing here?"
"On my way home." She answered quickly.
"But why you wanted to enter to the theater?" Rose frowned.
"I... I..." Em tried to answer something. "I saw the play ends and I thought I ... I say hi to Kit. I was here and... "
"You are such a good friend." Rose was looking at her "Oh. I hope you'll have some freetime in June. When the filming ends?"
"June?" Em was wondering. "I... what will be in June?"
"The wedding honey. I hope you'll be there. Kit would be sad If you are not. And... me too. So make yourself free at 23 June okay?" Rose was talking with an irritating smile.
"I ... see what I can do. I promise." Em felt how her tears wanted to come out but she was an actress. She can easily act in a different way no matter how hard it is. "Ahm... I... have to go now I..."
"Em?" Kit stepped out in that minute from the theater and he was staring her. Rose immediately grabbed his arms and placed her face to his shoulder.
"Hi." Em tried to smile at him... the man who betrayed her again... and chose Rose. She couldn't believe. All the things he said to her... all those things were lies? All those nights. All those moments...
"What are you doing here?" Kits voice was soft and kind... and he was clearly worried.
"She just wanted to say hi." Rose answered before Emilia could talk. "But honey we better go. I need more rest nowadays."
"You got cold or jet-lag?" Emilia asked her with her best smile.
Kit was in silence while Roses smile even gets bigger and brighter.
"Okay. But it is a secret. Please do not tell anyone." She was leaning closer to her ears "I am pregnant"

Em eyes stopped on Kit. He tried to form some words but Em turned her face away from him.
"Congratulations... so sorry but... I... I really have to go now. We'll ... talk later okay?" She looked at her watch and held her tears. "See ya later."
Emilia almost running away from them. Kit was looking after her while Rose was still holding his arms. No. No. He had to say something to her. Why the hell he did not say anything for fuck sake.
"Shit. I forgot to ask her about ... the interview we have. I'll be back in a minute." He released himself from Rose and ran after Emilia.
"EM!" Kit was shouting but instead of answering him she hurried up her steps. "EM!" he finally catch her and grabbed her arms. "Please listen to me."
She raised her head up and her eyes were full of tears.
"Don't. I understand just let me go okay?" Emilia was talking quietly and avoided to look into his eyes.
"We have to talk about it. Not here not now but we have to. I... still want to ... end it with her I... I was just in a shock when she told me ... that thing."
"That thing? Kit! That thing is a baby. Your baby. Your child with her and I don't want to be a part of it. I am not gonna ruin a family. A child's life. No matter ... no matter what I feel for you. That child changes everything."
"That child doesn't change my feelings for you." Kit answered and he hated he can't hold her close. He wanted to reassure her everything is gonna be okay...
"Your feelings... our feelings doesn't matter anymore." Em was cold and confident. "Have a good life Kit."
She turned away and start walking. Wiped away the tears from her eyes.
