You would look beautiful pregnant...
Does Zander Sterling want this?When he’s had too much to drink, the truth seems to spill out.
Does he want me?
I barely dare to believe that might be true, but for the man with such a powerful reputation, theshark,who has never been affiliated with a woman, he seems to be doing some odd things.
Spending an entire weekend with me.Not insisting on condoms.Risking his entire career.
Oh, my God.
And if I’m right...what does this mean?
How do I feel about him?
I let out a sigh and close my phone.No, I can’t even consider it.He’d just be another man I let down when he learns I cannot have a child.Just the thought of it has him imagining our life together as a little family.One that I would have to destroy for him if I let this go any further.
Standing, I walk around the counter and rinse my empty mug, then pull on a jacket and shoes and head outside for a walk to clear my head.I have no real destination; I just need to walk.
Like Forrest Gump.
Soon my divorce will be settled, and I’ll have to make some decisions about my life.Will I go to college?Move out of New York?
Adopt?
Date?
I’m tired, that’s all I know.
