Tears rolled down her cheeks as she stared at herself in the mirror. The hospital looked big on her as her hands slid down to her stomach and rested there.

A little gasp escaped her lipstick #as the words played in her head over and over. You lost the baby.

How could she have lost a child she never knew she had in the first place?

It had been an hour since she had gone to the bathroom and she k re whswhoseoked a like ess there was no way she was facing anyone with the way she looked

How weak was her body

It could t even protect one kid. She felt like beating herself up big couldn't How was she going to tell Vincenzo?

How could she tell him that she had been pregnant and lost it? They had big even celebrated her being pregnant and yet they had lost the baby.

It wasn't that, that bothered him. All she could think about was Briana carrying his child. Smiling aif s she was going to be the other of either his son or daughter.

Briana was better than her and that thought itself infuriated her. She could tell him. He would think she was weak and the worst wife if she couldn't do the only job women were known of doing best.

She didn't want to think about it but it was the only thing her mind was circled. She couldn't let it get to hr.

She had work to do and did not have time to cry and feel sorry for herself.

No matter how much she convinced herself not to think about it she couldn't stop. She could see an image of herselplayingng with her daughter only that she had already lost the kid and it was all an illusion.

She had never wanted a kid in the first place bulosingng one had hurt her so much. She had never known that something could hurt that much.

It was as if she was saying goodbye to someone that was part of hr. Someone that would have adored her and shown her love but she had already lost that chan

Her eyes were already puffy as she tried to smile but the smile looked forced. She looked a mess as she tried to wash off her face.

She couldn't let it get her down. She couldn't let herself fade into sadness when she has a lot on her plate already.

She smiled a couple of more times and exited the bathroom dressed ready to leave.

The doctor was in her room and just stared at her wondering where she was going. She looked at her puffy eyes and didn't want to know what she had been doing.

"If you need someone to talk to we're here,noeveryonendealls with child loss alone ", the doctor said handing her a cad.

"Thank you but I'll be fine ", Anna said as she took her purse from the table and left the room.

Anna hated people feeling sorry for her, made things worse than they already were and she didn't have all day sitting in a room being told how everything was going to be okay.

Of course, everything was going to be okay there was no other option. She took her shades from her bag and wore them.

As she walked into Vincenzo's room she was shocked to see Dylan there. What was he doing thee?

"Hey ", she said as she kissed Vincenzo's cheek.

"Dylan was telling me that something happened with you and you were not doing okay ? ", Vincenzo asked to look at Ana.

"Yeah the doctor said it was just fatigue I've just been stressed out ready and I haven't been eating so my body is just weak but I'll be fine ", An said smiling but none of them could tell if the smile reached her eyes.

"What were you guys talking about apart from me ? ", An asked them.

She knew something was p. The two had never been friends so it was a littlweirdrd for them to talk to each other.

"Nothing I was just telling Dylan that you're not another girl who's obsessed with him. He seems to have a liking for people that are into me ", Vincenzo said and Anna watched as Dylan's face watched from color.

"She was not into you ", Dylan said and Anna wondered who they were talking about.

"Am not going to sit here in a hospital bed and talk about the two-faced person who hurt you and you think am the bad person ", Vincenzo said dismissing the topic.

"She loved me until you came into the picture e, you ruined that ", Dylan said and Anna could see the veins popping.

Why couldn't they just say the name already?

"She was with you because she knew we were friends Dyln. Were you that whipped not to see t? She always wanted me to tag along with you guys whenever you were wet. Does that look like someone who was in love with you ? ", Vincenzo asked Dyla.

"You made a move in her when yoknewew she was mine ", Dylan said.

"I did not do that, she lied to you. I rejected her and she somehow changed the story to make it look like I was the bad person ", Vincenzo said.

He was having a migraine and the last thing he wanted to talk about is one of Dylan's craziness.

"She could never lie to me ", Dylan said chuckling.

"And yet she was in a relationship the whole time she was with you how about that huh? ", Vincenzo asked Dylan getting pissd.

"We're not sure he was telling the truth ", Dylan said shaking his head and Anna could see that he was trying everything to make this mystery woman a good person.

"Are you really that stupid not to see it? They had a kid together Dylan wake up for the love of God ", Vincenzo scoffed.

"She couldn't defend herself on this one ", Dylan said shrugging his shoulders.

"Well that's because she is dead but is sure she would still like one more time if she got the chance to do that ", Vincenzo said and Dylan opened his mouth to say something but couldn't talk.

"Anna isn't Artemis leave her alone ", Vincenzo added and this seemed to get a reaction out of Dylan.

"I love her and you don't I could treat her better than you ever could ", Dylan said chuckling.

"Yet she chooses to be with me instead of you even if I don't treat her better ", Vincenzo said and Anna scoffed and they all turned to look at her.

The ringing of Anna's phone started all of them as they waited for her to answer it.

"Hello", she said as she answered.

"Give him the phone ", the other person on the line said and she recognized the phone immediately as she handed the phone to Vincenzo.
