Turning Point (A Reaching Out Novel)

Chapter Seventy-Eight

Harry's Perspective.

Allana left the car as soon as Austin stopped for drop off.

" Austin, I do not want to get out of the car just yet, just drive it first to the garage please. " I said

" Right away. " he said

He started driving.

" Austin, did I mess up? " I said

" I'm not sure sir. I wasn't there when anything happened."

" Okay, I'll tell you. "

" Please, sir. "

" Allana and Carmela fought again, the intensity was so high, if Allana did not walk out, Carmela wouldn't have made it to her trial. "

" Then, what? "

" Allana accidentally blurted out to her brother that she was pregnant. "

" Then what? "

" The car ride was quiet."

" Sir, I think that Allana is just having one pregnancy episode. It's one of many, many episodes. "

" You think? "

" Well, sir, you bought her jewelry, then dragged her out if the Palace to meet her sister, might I add that she didn't really want to come, her looks could literally kill us. "

" You felt that too? " I said

" Sir, it's like her line of sight could pierce through our skulls."

I sighed.

" What do I do? " I said

" I have no idea sir, honestly. "

I closed my eyes.

" Could make up-sex work? " I said

" Maybe sir, but after all that she'd been through today, I'm guessing that she's asleep."

" Breakfast in bed? " I said

" Sir, you honestly think that you could sleep without resolving this? "

" True, true. "

" I don't think I can help you sir. "

" I know, I know! But still, give me ideas."

" Waking her up at this moment is not a good idea. "

" And it's lunch time, I have-"

" 10 hours to resolve this. "

" Great, 10 hours. "

" Anything can happen in 10 hours, sir. "

" A whole lot. "

Austin turned off the engine.

" Sir, I-"

" I'm gonna go walk around first. " I said

" Walk where, sir? "

" Around the palace. Clear my mind. "

" Do you need me-"

" No. Thank you, I'll just call for you. And please, check on Allana. Right away. Notify me on what she's doing. "

" Right away sir. "
