CHAPTER 140

　　Kara

　　Derek asked me to come into the house. He wanted to talk to Stefan alone. I didn't understand why. Was something wrong? Why didn't Derek tell me Stefan was coming?

　　I entered the house without protesting. I congratulated Stefan on his wedding. And it was the hardest thing I ever had to say. Who would have thought he and I would end up like this? He married someone else and I engaged to his brother. When did everything change so quickly?

　　I looked at Stefan one last time. I think that day was going to be the last time I would see Stefan before he got married. I went into the house and closed the door. I waited for Derek on the couch. His conversation with Stefan didn't last long.

　　He entered the room and took off his jacket.

　　"What happened? Why didn't you tell me he was coming? What's he here for?"

　　"He wasn't supposed to knock on the door, but he did. He did to see you, Kara."

　　"What's he here for?" I repeated. "What did you talk about? Did you fight?"
