''So, you and Conner?'' Natalie asked as they pulled out the chairs to sit.
''No, it's not what you think.'' Xia said, blushing.
''Really?'' Natalie grinned and asked, ''okay. Tell me, what is it them?''
''Via came to my house last night.''
''That b*tch, I should go and kill her at once.'' Natalie said, standing up and Xia held her hand, stopping her.
''Sit down, Nat. She is already dying!''
''I take my words back!'' Natalie replied and looked at Xia. ''Are you alright?''
''Mm, I'm fine. But I'm worried about Conner and Karl. He is still so young and doesn't know the cruelty of this world yet. No matter whether Conner had feelings for her or not, she is still the mother of his son. That is a void no one can fill.''
''That's true.'' Natalie sighed.
''Sometimes I wonder, how did we get to this point? What different choices would we have made if we knew we would have this outcome?"
