"Hi Audrey ! I'm going to my friend's house in the evening for their child's birthday party.

Alex was now in a completely naughty mood with the other children playing in the park running here and there.Daniel was spying on them on the behest of Leo and was relaying all the information he could receive from his so-called intelligent sources."Rachel isn't married and is a single mom to a son. She has some great friends and a great career," Daniel informed.“Even if she's single, I can't assume what’s going on in her life, or that her emotions are the same as mine for the love we shared," Leo answered.Of course, he didn't know if she was single or dating someone. But he wanted to take a chance because he had only loved her. Moreover, he was quite optimistic that Alex was his secret baby.“I figured what the heck. If we're meant to be together again then we will be,” Leo said, who was now on the way to the park to get answers to the questions that

He can wake up and hear us arguing !” Leo said softly as Rachel told him to leave Alex and her alone in the hospital ward and not to come back again."Can we discuss the matter outside the ward ?" headded.“With all due respect, I’d rather not discuss it. There's nothing left to discuss with you since we know each other quite well now," Rachel replied as they both moved out of Alex's ward where he was sleeping under the spell of medicines."I need to discuss Alex, after all he's my son too," Leo said as they both sat in the waiting area.“That’s not up for discussion !” Rachel retorted."I want to know why you hid such big news from me and left the city without informing me four years back ?"

Their fates were perching above them, smiling and murmuring amongst themselves: “Let’s see how it goes this time…”Audrey and Dmitri's eyes met and instantly locked in a similar way as the day they met for the first time five years earlier."I want to talk to you in private. Can you please walk down to the reception lobby with me ?"Audrey asked gently as she walked up to Dmitri's table where he was sitting."Yeah ! Sure !"ashocked Dmitri replied as he got up from his chair and started to move out of the cafeteria with Audrey."How are you, Audrey ?" asked Dmitri as he resisted the intense urge to just hold her in his arms and never let her go."Sorry to say but I'm good !

"When we were in a relationship, it was important to you that your family gets along with me. And that made total sense !" Dmitri said to Audrey who was feeling the greatest heights of betrayal and shock."Yes ! It’s awesome when our partners can be involved in multiple areas of our lives and hang out with the other people we care about in our family. That is why I called you to meet them," Audrey replied."But what if that’s not the case ? What if your parents disapproved of me but couldn't say so in front of you ?" Dmitri said.“You know, Dmitri, I’ve been trying to figure out what the issues were, what the solutions were to fixing those issues, and I can’t. I’ve been thinking about it all for the last three years," Audrey saidas a tear fell down her cheek.

I'm convinced that there is a higher power or even just fate, there is something that puts us and possibly our soul mate in the same place,at the same time,when the time is right," Dmitri replied back as he nuzzled his face in the crook of her neck."It's up to us to recognize that though.
