Ryla Letoy

I'm sorry

I sit down on my bed.
"Sit."

They both sit down.
"You both remember when I use to bleed a lot."

They move uncomfortably.
"It happened that the gynaecologist say I lost a baby. I went through all the processes of cleaning the womb and they saw no baby. After months I started missing my days. I started acting dramatic and sometimes just be angry on you two. The shocking part is that the stomach wasn't showing. Until one day my aunt asked if I was pregnant and I said no... She decided test my urine without me knowing and that time I was five months pregnant. They kept quite. Until I was seven months pregnant and I was told to go away. To go and live with my aunt until I gave birth..." I pause.

"I didn't want to keep the baby. Then on the Prom night I called you. Liam you were so sweet and I wished the baby was yours in that way I was going to be able to keep it. Ryla became so rude. I even told him I was pregnant but he thought so selfishly. But at the end he had a son."

Liam looked at me with teary eyes.
"So how is he? The baby?"

"He is okay."

"Can I see him?" They both ask at the same time.

I point the small bed near my bed. They walk to him.

Ryla picks him up.
"Hold his neck. He is still young."

They took turns holding him until he fell asleep.

"He looks like his dad." Liam say.

"He looks like me." I say.

"Does he have a name?" Ryla ask.

"Light is his name. You want to give him a name?"

"Dragon." He say.

I laugh as they both laugh.
"Not on my watch."

"Then Diago will be just fine."

"Thank you but he already has a name. My Light Favour Berry Letoy."

I can see Liam having a look of wish.

"You want to see something else?" I ask looking at Liam.

"Yeah sure."

I walk them down the passage. We walk in my Star's room.
