“Okay, alright, let’s calm down. Let’s leave you aside. What does that have to do with me?” I asked, still not understanding why he was relating his problems with me.
“Common. Sonia. You still don’t get it!” He sighed in frustration.
“No I don’t. If you don’t spell it out for me, how am I supposed to get it?” I replied, just as frustrated as he was
“Alright, listen,” he looked around, before he continued. “She behaved the same way you’re behaving before we found out. But don’t worry, no one in her packs knows yet. I mean no one that can put her in trouble,” he said.
“She behaved just like–1 paused and gasped
“Yeah, you finally get it!” He said excitedly, but there was nothing exciting about what he was insinuating
“Can you actually hear yourself?” I asked, almost breaking into a scream.
“What?”
He had the nerve to look confused. How could be assume something so ridiculous. Wouldn’t I know if it was true!
I was uncomfortable with this conversation, because it simply wasn’t true.
“I really do believe you’ve absolutely lost your mind,” I said.
“Are you denying it! Or you’re just trying to protect yourself from getting hurt by the truth? I’m surprised Lydia hadn’t pointed it out yet I bet if you were still friends with Freya, she would have noticed.”

I can’t even get into how hot my body got at intervals.
“Could it?” I muttered, but pursed my lips in silence.
It couldn’t be. It just couldn’t be. The thought of it was enough to send me spiralling.
I heard a knock on my door, and almost collapsed to the ground.
“Go away!” I called to whoever was behind the door, when I regained my voice.
“It’s me, Sonia. It’s Lydia,” I heard her voice clearly.
“Please go away. I’m not in the mood to talk to anyone.” I insisted.
“But I have something for you to do. Open the door, and find out,” she said in a compelling tone.

We tiptoed through two more doors, before finally bursting into the open.
Our eyes locked, and we exchanged triumphant smiles.
“Let’s go heal an old woman!” Lydia cheered, and I couldn’t help but laugh.
This was a good decision. I had already forgotten about my potential problems.
