Teresa thought for a moment before responding, “Why don’t you ask a trusted friend to go with you? After all, I’m not your sister–in–law anymore.”
Cheryl shook her head. “I didn’t tell anyone about this; not even my closest friends
She had kept everything a secret. After her period was late, she quietly traveled to a nearby city, where she eventually discovered she was pregnant.
Cheryl sighed, her voice tinged with frustration. I just went to the restroom for a moment, and somehow, you saw the test results. Now, only you know I’m pregnant.
Teresa frowned. Cheryl was only 22, pregnant, and didn’t even know who the father was. Cheryl had always been kind to her, often siding with Teresa before the divorce. They would shop together, spending time like sisters.
“Okay. Take some time to think about whether you want to have an abortion, and let me know. I’ll go with you,” she finally said.
“Thank you so much,” Cheryl said.
Back in Nareigh, Teresa and Cheryl parted ways. Teresa sent Michael to Miriam’s home before heading to Luviston Estates. When she arrived, Donald opened the door, informing her that he had just put Jonathan on an IV drip.
As Teresa stepped inside, she saw Jonathan reclining on the couch in dark blue loungewear, receiving an IV. His face was pale and haggard, and for a moment, their
gazes met.
He then glanced at Donald. “You can leave now.”
Donald nodded, grabbing his coat and keys. “Off I go. Teresa, once the drip finishes, can you remove the needle for him?”
Teresa nodded. “Got it.”
Donald left in a hurry, and as soon as the door slammed shut, Jonathan asked, “Where have you been?”
“Can’t I go on a business trip? Teresa asked, shrugging off her coat. The heat from the room and the warmth of the turtleneck sweater beneath made her feel a little too
warm.
Jonathan pressed, “I mean, where did you move to? And why did you move?”
Teresa frowned. “I moved because I wanted to. Why do I have to explain everything to you?”
Successfully unlocked!
Jonathan’s expression hardened….yourd. Can’t I show a bit of concern?” Teresa glanced at him. “If you still have the energy to care about me, then you don’t need much looking after. I’m leaving.”

Jonathan reached out to grab her sleeve with his hand that was free from the IV drip. No way.”
Teresa turned around. “How about I make you some gruel? It’s good for your stomach.”
Jonathan nodded. “Could you hand me the tissues on the table? My nose won’t stop running.”
As Teresa observed Jonathan’s reddened, runny nose, she couldn’t help but think back to when Michael had the same symptoms during his fever a few days ago. “Like father, like son, she thought.
“You don’t think you’ve caught the flu, do you?” Teresa asked.
Jonathan shrugged. “I’m not sure. Maybe it’s from waiting outside your house all night
in the cold.”
Teresa didn’t reply.
After cooking the gruel to perfection, she couldn’t help but feel a small sense of pride in her growing culinary skills. She set the bowl aside, looking at the almost empty IV bag. “Let’s remove the IV before you have your gruel.”
Jonathan nodded.
Teresa leaned down to peel the tape from Jonathan’s hand, her long hair cascading over her shoulders. Her fitted sweater accentuated her curves, causing Jonathan’s throat to tighten involuntarily.
Though they had been intimate after their divorce, things were different. He remembered how things had been between them, how he would’ve eagerly sought intimacy with her even while unwell.
