Chapter 36- Ann's past

'Last time you came for reports, you rarely come to just spend some time.' (Clara)

It was true Lorrin couldn't argue to that,

'True.' (Lorrin)

'So, what are you here for?' (Clara)*Smiling*

'I wanted to see Ann past pictures.' (Lorrin)*excited*

Lorrin's main mission was to get pictures from Clara; after talking to John Lorrin could relax and think, mulling over things for a while, Lorrin got excited about those pictures, looking at one's boyfriends past pictures is like a totally new curiosity, happiness and fun and thinking about looking at Ann's past pictures gave Lorrin the same kind of excited feelings,

'Why?' (Clara)*puzzled*

'Her face keeps fading away from my memories.' (Lorrin)*curious*

Another lie, Lorrin clearly remembered Ann's face and every expression she made, one of the benefits of absolute memory,

'OH' (Clara)*0% doubt, clueless*

'I just want to stamp her in there I want to see how she looked when she was young, a teenager, a youth, a young lady and finally how she looked when she was with me.'

'Mom would be seriously happy, wait a moment I will be right back.' (Clara)*smiling*

The gentle smile on Clara's face was honest, Clara, years ago had gotten jealous about how much Ann cared for Lorrin but, then one day this same gentle smile was on her face, Lorrin thought it must be because she pitied Lorrin for not receiving parents love and that was the truth since, the time Clara noticed that Lorrin was ignored by her family she became more accepting of Lorrin, Lorrin was indeed thankful for that; though Lorrin at that time wanted to be close with Clara, Clara and her sister had drawn a clear line between them, for Clara and Celine, Lorrin was just the employer of their mother and nothing more,

Lorrin was left there alone she saw some files with a weird company logo, it was quite unique which caught her attention, a clover, interesting she thought, Clara brought pictures and it was as expected the it was Ann. Lorrin couldn't say another word Lorrin just stared at the picture for some time and then took it and kept it in her bag, various thought went through her mind she was astonished, confused, troubled though Lorrin did think the person in the picture would be Ann but, the actual reason for Lorrin to confirm things was because she wanted to prove that Ann wasn't involved in the mess and was just her loving nanny, right now Lorrin masked her expression and just showed excitement hiding all those dilemmas and confusions inside her,

'What did Ann do before she became my nanny?' *curious*(Lorrin)

'She was a nursery teacher' (Clara)

'OH, cool' (Lorrin)*disappointed*

Lorrin knew that, Clara won't be honest but, some part of her did want an honest answer,

'I will take my leave now.' (Lorrin)*smiling*

'Yeah, come anytime.' (Clara)

'Sure' (Lorrin)

Clara didn't see Lorrin's actions as suspicious, the files were perfect with no loopholes and the curiosity about Ann was just because Ann was like a mother to her and wanting to know more about the person, they loved so much was not weird.

Lorrin ran out and called John,

'Come pick me up' (Lorrin)*sniffling*

'Yeah' (John)*reassuring*

Hearing Lorins voice, John just knew that something was going on and Lorrin had received one big hit, he was already done with work and was on his way home, right that second, he knew that he needed to be there for her right away, taking all the short cuts he knew he drove off to Lorrin's location.

Lorrin shared her live location, at this point she didn't know where she was running around with tears in her eyes, she twisted her ankles and limped until she found a seat to sit. she didn't know why she was so sad, was it because she didn't know what the heck was going on anymore or the thought that the person, she thought she knew well was but a stranger, John found her through the location and straight up hugged her and picked her up to the car,

'You are limping' (John)

Looking at Lorrin's condition now she was worried sick, he seriously wanted to know, what the hell was going on? but, he knew he had to wait cause if he rushed her, she will lose it, even in the call before he knew that something was not right, right now all he needed to do was to keep her together,

'I twisted my damn ankles' (Lorrin)

Lorrin looked like a shit that was messed up,

'I asked you to be healthy' (John)*Nagging*

At this point seeing her hurt, he wanted to nag her to death but, he kept himself together,

'I know, I am sorry, I don't know anymore.' (Lorrin)

Lorrin was totally out of it, she didn't even know what she was saying,

'What do you not know?' *Lorrin was astonished at this question*

Lorrin didn't expect this question, she taught that John would just ask her what was going on, caused the way she looked right now would make even the indifferent stranger ask her what shit she was going through, she just spilled what was on her messed-up mind;

'I thought I knew her well but now, it's stupid' (Lorrin)

'What do you know not about her.' (John)

Looking at Lorrin john thought that he would be able to read her well and know totally, what she was? but, coming closer now how much he thought he knew was just a drop in a vast ocean but, even if he knew just a drop of Lorrin he was quite clear that he was a big part of her and that she loved him and he was the one for her and so was he for her,

Lorrin didn't have anything to say, what did she not know about Ann, she knew her habits, her like, her dislikes, Lorrin knew everything about Ann like the back of her hands, the only thing she questioned,

'What's her name? why she came to me?' (Lorrin)

'Was it a bad thing? Was she lying to you about how she felt towards you?' (John)

John knew, she didn't know much about him but, no matter how much little she knew she cared about him dearly,
