“I don't hate you. This is just...It hurts Akeilia”. I believe they should have some time alone to discuss this right now.

Leon lightly thug at my hand and gesture for us to leave. I guess he feels the same.

“I don't hate you. This is just...It hurts Akeilia”. Oh god.

“We'll..um...yeah”. I pointed to the door. Akeilia look but Michael didn't. Leon opened the door. Both of us left.

Leaning on the wall, I sigh watching Leon walking away probably lost in thought because he didn't realize that I stopped. What if they were us? I wouldn't know the hell what to do.

He look behind him. “Babe let's go”. He rubbed his hands over his head. I know he's mentally exhausted.

“You need to relax. Come on”. He walked closer. “It's bothering me too. This is worst than when they were avoiding each other. I miss those days. You know thinking about this now”. He look at me and lay his hand on my belly. I nod in agreement.

“I wish she'd listen to me”. He started to rub my belly.

He sigh. “Some people just learn from their mistakes. Sometimes when it's too late”.

“I wish she wasn't drunk that night she would've known what to do to prevent it. That I'm sure of”. Leon stopped with furrowed eyebrows.

“What do you mean?”

“Do you remember when I told you that Lenoy took advantage of her when she was drunk”. He nod now looking confused. I know it probably seem as if I broke her trust, but Leon is my husband. I tell him everything. Besides I'm sure he won't say anything to Michael. He doesn't like to get caught up in the mids of those things. And more over he know that Michael would make the guy life a living hell. He wouldn't want Michael to get himself in trouble.

He was upset that I told him, because like me he doesn't want any other man with Akeilia than Michael and it's the same for me. But of course at the time I couldn't say that to Akeilia.

“Earlier she told me that that was the night she got pregnant”. His small cute eyes widened so much I thought they were going to pop.

“Oh”. He replied. I frown. “What's up with the eyes?” He shrugged like it was nothing.

“I thought it was before Michael came back into her life”.

“He was the one who stressed her out in the first place. He should blame himself for what happened to her”.

We talked some more about the situation until we were ready to move. That's one of the things I love about us. We communicate. And that is pretty healthy for our relationship.

“Michael!” We heard Akeilia scream.

We look at each other astonished. I hope he didn't hit her. I hear Michael's voice but I can't tell what he's saying.

“Michael.. Michael!”

“Oh my god Leon should we go in there?” He shook his head. “Let's not intervene. We can only be there for them. We can't fix their problems”.

“Just let go Akeilia! This is done! We are done! There's nothing to work out! Leave me the f*ck alone!”

“Oh god... Leon”. Oh no no.

Leon shut his eyes and clenched his teeth.

The door opened and Michael rushed pass us, obviously really pissed. Leon went after him.
