CRY'S OF A CHILD 13.
Promised.
"Piper, trust me. I really do. Give me some time. I will fly back to New York and divorce with my wife now!", Leo said.
"I said it's okay! You don't need to do this. Just leave, will you? I do not want all these promises because Leo gave me that too. Where is him now? I do not want to go through those tough times alone again. It's tough...it's really difficult", Piper broke down into tears.
"Piper, I am not that Leo. I am me, the man you love. I am here for you. It's destined. I am supposed to be in Brazil but I end up here. I am glad I did. I will keep my promises. I promised", Leo said.
Piper smiled at him. Leo hugged her and gave her a light kiss.
"Wait for me. I will be back for you", Leo said.
Leo went back to New York to divorce with Lillian.
"Get me the earliest flight back", Leo called his secretary.
He wants to go back quick.
He wants to be with Piper.
The moment Leo step into the house. Lillian was there preparing a delicious lunch for him.
"Honey, have your lunch first. I have something to tell you", Lillian set up the table and invited Leo there.
"Me too. I have something important to tell you. May be you should tell first", Leo said.
"Alright...I am pregnant!", Lillian said with excitement.
Leo was stunned.
How can he tell her? He can't just leave her and his unborn child. Yet he wants Piper. He wants to be with Piper but he wants to be a responsible guy too.
"Leo?", Lillian called. "Huh?...I need to go to the bathroom first", Leo struggle to escape from this tension.
He locked himself in the bathroom. He went into deep thoughts.
"It can't be! Piper is still waiting for me. What am I supposed to do?", Leo pondered alone.
Meanwhile, Lillian picked up the phone. She called Piper.
"Hello, Piper Halliwell? I am Leo's wife. I'm here on behalf of my husband. He wants to tell you to go on with your life. We are going to be parents very soon. He said that he is really sorry but he has to be a responsible husband. He wished you the fullest happiness with Dan", Lillian said.
Piper couldn't say anything.
Again, she was hurt badly.
All the hopes and promises Leo gave her was just a lust.
She shouldn't have turned back.
She regretted giving Leo that chance to hurt her.
She felt so deceived and hopeless.
"Hello, miss Halliwell? Are you still there?", asked Lillian.
"Yes and congratulation. Please tell Leo that I will be the happiest person and thank you for everything", Piper told Lillian with a heavy heart. She put down the telephone.
At that time, no one was at home. She is the only one who knows about Leo existents and she plan to keep it a secret, forever.
Leo came out to face Lillian.
"Lillian, I am happy that I am going to be a father but I can't live with you anymore. I am sorry. It's not you…it's just me", Leo said.
"What is my mistake? I will change, please don't leave me. You know that I love you and you can't do this to me", Lillian begged.
"I just can't. I felt in love with another woman! True and pure love", Leo said with a stern voice.
"Please stay, at least until the baby is born. Give me a chance, give the baby a chance. Please Leo. Don't be a cruel father", Lillian said.
"Only until the baby is born, after that there is nothing between us. Please remember that I am doing this because of my responsibility towards my child!", Leo said and he left the room immediately.
Lillian smiled. She managed to deceive Leo once again.
"One year time will be enough for a lot to change. Leo and Piper will not be together forever! You will be mine, Leo", thought Lillian.
