A close friend

Serena stood in the hallways of the hospital staring at her ex husband. Damian was in a wheel chair right in front of her, gazing at her with soft hazel eyes.

Eyes that once melted her heart. It was the same look that Damian had when he received the message that Alex and Marga sent him after they killed her.

Looking into his eyes, she was reminded of the reason why she had fallen in love with him to begin with. The love that she had seen in his eyes, the care and compassion that brought her peace in her worst.

It stunned her that Damian could afford to look at her like that after all the pain and suffering that he had put her through.

The situation was ironic, the times when she desperately wanted to be close to him he pushed her away. Now that the last place she wished to be was next to him. That is the very place that she was forced to be.

She smiled.
