Chapter 25"Hey, Vincent," Donna said right before he was leaving out the door, "Where are you going?"
"I was just going to take a walk."
"You don't look like you got much sleep."
"I didn't."
'I was thinking that since Lauren is coming over today that the 4 of us and Laura can go to the mall together."
"I would want to go but right now I'm not in the mood. I think I need some alone time."
"Okay, well that's acceptable by all costs."
"But go ahead and invite Laura. I'm sure she'll want to come."
"What do I say if she asks about you?"
"Umm…just tell her that I had to go and talk to my editor or something."
"But, Vincent that's a lie," Donna said.
"Just please do that for me," he said, "At least for now?"
Donna kept silent.
"I'm going to go now."
"Be safe," Donna said as Vincent left closing the door behind him.
Donna wasn't a fan of lying and in a way felt guilty of what she had to say right now. It was so unlike her.
Hesitatingly, she picked up the phone and dialed Laura's number.
"Hello?" Laura asked on the other line.
"Hi, it's Donna."
"Hey, Donna! How are you? How's Ariadne?"
"Good. In fact the two of us and Lauren were going to the mall later and we thought why don't you come with us, that's if you don't' have any plans or anything."
"I'll go. Sure! Is Vincent coming?"
"Ummm…well he's busy."
"Oh…"
Donna began to realize the hurt in her voice.
"He did want to come," Donna pointed out, "But something came up and he had to readjust his schedule."
At least it's partly true, she told herself.
"Oh well. I guess I'll just talk to him sometime later."
"We'll meet you up in an hour at your place okay? I'm still waiting for Lauren to get here."
"Okay, if you'd like..."
"Sure."
"Donna? Are you okay?" Laura asked.
"I'm fine."
"You sure?"
"Yeah."
"Well, I'll go and get ready. See ya!"
"Bye."
Donna hanged up and took a deep breath. She hoped that Vincent would just come to his nerves and tell her already what he should have told her since the beginning.
