´´ What kind of fetish? ´´ Claire replied still somewhat lost not noticing the mistake she had just made.
´´ You know which one I'm talking about, don't tell me that you really are in love with your own brother? ´´
Only then did Claire realize that she had talked about more while she was in her own world of cupcakes and now she did not know what to say to her friend, she could tell her that it was just a misunderstanding, but she did not feel comfortable with herself rejecting her relationship with Desmond. But neither could she say that she was in love with her brother; no one in her right mind would think highly of her if she said that.
So Claire decided on a third option, which was, to tell the truth, or at least part of the truth in any case: ´´ He is not my brother. ´´
Melissa who did not expect that answer at all was silent waiting for Claire to continue what she was saying.
