" nothing we just talked for some time and then he left " Althea replied
" hmmm, when you were sick I watched him as he didn't let anyone take care of you expect him " Jan paused looking at Althea who was blushing like a tomato " I'm happy for you Althea "both girls hugged each other feeling touched by the moment
Althea felt very lucky to have a friend like Jan who can always rely on

" Does she love someone? " Jan was taken aback by her aunt question
" and what if she is? " Jan asked her back
" then you are confirming my suspicion, in that case, I need to know how he is, " her aunt said
" well if she does have someone I'm sure you will be the first one to know about, " Jan said not wanting to rise any unwanted suspension's around Althea

after two days later Althea went back to the mansion the situation is still complicated between her and her mother Althea saw that the best solution, for now, is to give her mom some space to rethink everything that happened recently maybe understand her
" Welcome back," the lord said as he drew her in his embrace
" thank you," Althea said
he felt her shift uncomfortably in his arms " are you alright? " the Lord asked he had seen her touch her stomach a few times since she came
" yes, I just haven't slept well last night a little sleep and I will be fine " Althea lied she slept well last night but she woke up with a stomach ache meeting that her menstrual period is coming
kissing her forehead he spoke " go to sleep I will wake up when I get back "
" you are going out? " Althea asked
" yes but I will not take long I will be here before you wake up " patting her head he spoke to her in a gentle tone
Althea nodded her head and went to her room changing her clothes she went to bed to sleep a bit her back started to hurt she thought maybe sleeping for some time it will help her
an hour later Althea couldn't sleep the unwanted guest has visited her she went to the kitchen to prepare something warm to drink her back stomach and head hurt
she went back to her room and lied back on the bed waiting for the pain killers to take there effect to reduce the pain but nothing worked half an hour later the pain increased she felt like her back going to split in two from the severe pain she clenched her stomach painfully
she was glad that the lord wasn't her or else how she will explain this embarrassing situation.
