The secret meeting
She had been fighting between her depression and her desire to live. Honestly, it was not easy. Thinking about the only man she ever loved gone made her want to consider dying.
On the other hand, she also willed herself to live, considering the child growing inside her. She could not let any harm near their child. She must protect her baby at all costs.
Therefore, even if the last thing she wanted to do was to go out of her room. She did. She went to work as if nothing had happened and worked like any other day.
Nobody knew she was suffering from a loss since only a few knew she was in a relationship with him. Only her family and close friends had been aware of their love affair.
"I am going home." She finally told her secretary, signing off the last paper on her desk.
