"Diana, are you going out today?" Antonette asked worriedly.
Diana nodded in silence. It had been a week since they had been together at Brian's house. Diana could tell Antonette was worried about her and was touched by her concern.
"It's OK. Just diagnosis and treatment." Diana said cheerily. She tried to persuade both Antonette and herself that it would all be fine, "After this month, the agreement will be nothing but a piece of paper. I will be safe and free then."
Antonette squeezed out a smile. She had contemplated everything for the last week and had concluded that she couldn't give up on Brian. Brian hadn't fallen in love with her yet because he hadn't seen her beauty. Antonette was determined to meet Brian again.
Antonette talked happily with Diana, while in her mind, she was cursing her.
