A/N:. So this chapter for the most part is going to be a little more uplifting. Also, the telenovela mentioned is actually one of my favourite telenovelas like ever.

Estrella POV
I stared blankly at the red long sleeve maxi dress hung up on the wall. I had no intentions of wearing it, although I really wanted to.

It was supposedly the day of my baby shower, but I wasn't really in a celebratory mood.

It had been a whole week and I had barely spoken to any of my family or friends, including Julius, which was incredibly hard seeing as we lived together. I had been staying in a separate room from him.

Almost everyone knew about my dad and Demetria and not one person thought to tell me about it.

Even Penelope.

My own sister had decided to keep the news from me.

My dad had only just come back into my life and now he was leaving again. Of course I wanted him to be happy ; but it hurt knowing that he wanted to be happy at my expense.

I felt incredibly selfish for wanting him to stay ; but I was only just getting to know him.

I swallowed hard trying not to cry. It was safe to say that I had been an emotional wreck the past few days.

Mustering all the strength I had in me, I got myself into my feet and waddled to the En suite.

Cringing slightly at a glimpse of my appearance in the mirror, I shut the door behind me and pulled my shorts down.

The moment my backside made connection with the seat, there was a rough knock on the bedroom door.

I rolled my eyes, assuming it was one of the maids.

"I'm coming!" I shouted to the intruder. These days I could pee for at least 2 minutes straight, it was absolutely unbelievable!

When I was sure there was nothing left, I finished up my business, washed my hands and splashed some cool water on my face to calm the angry red circles around my eyes.

"Who is it?" I shouted.

"It's me Estrella please open the door."

I rolled my eyes and pressed my back against the door.

"What exactly do you want Alina? I don't want to talk to you."

"I want my best friend back. I don't care how many times I have to say this Estrella. I love you and I'm sorry, we all are. Julius felt so bad for not telling you but I begged him not to give in. We had to make sure you didn't get stressed, for the baby's sake. Your pregnancy is high risk Estrella. I couldn't do that to you or to my niece or nephew."

I sighed before turning round and unlocking the door.

"I hate that I made you think, that the trust we had is broken." She sang, hoping I would follow suit.

"Don't tell me you can't forgive me..."

"because nobody's perfect, no"I smiled slightly.

"I was really hurt. It still stings to know that my dad is running away again but this time, everybody but me knew about it."

"Your dad is not running away. For the first time in a while, he's living. He's not being pestered by the council, he's not in hiding and he's not constantly worrying about his two wonderful daughters more than a regular dad should. Most importantly, he's found someone he adores. Think about what you have for Julius. Or what I have for Damian. Don't you want that for your dad?"
