Chapter 4:

Theresa went home and went inside her home. She shared it with her mother, brother and son. It wasn't big or glamourous but as soon as you stepped foot inside it you felt loved and wanted and happy. Theresa went through to the lounge room and found her mother, Pilar watching tv. She turned the tv of and walked over to Theresa.

"Theresa where have you been? It's late." she asked crossing her arms.

"Oh well a long story mama."

"I've got a lot of time."

"But you just said it was late. Don't you want to go to bed." Theresa said trying to get out of telling Pilar what happened.

"Mija tell me. No secrets please."

"Fine, I got stuck in an elevator with Fox Crane at Crane Industries."

"Oh... what were you doing at Crane Industries anyway?"

"I had to talk to Julian about Little Ethan."

Pilar sighed. "Teresita, what have I told you about that place? It's evil, the Cranes do most of their dirty work there, it's worse than the mansion."

"I know mama. Anyway back to the story, while we were in the elevator we became dellusional and we made love."

"Mija! Fox is engaged to be married!"

"Didn't you here me mama? We were dellusional. I thought I was making love to Ethan and Fox thought I was Whitney."

"I see. What are you gonna do about it. Tell the truth?"

"I don't know mama. We haven't talked since we got out the elevator."

"Fox should tell Whitney, they shouldn't have any secrets between them, especially when they have a baby on the way and are getting married. It's unhealthy to try and keep secrets mija, I should hope you don't keep any secrets. We all know where that got you. Your now a single mother and not in a relationship with anyone."

"Don't worry mama. I will tell Whitney. She's my best friend."

"Well Ethan was your true love and fiance but you kept secrets from him."

"Don't you trust me mama?"

"Of course I do mija. I love you so much."

"I love you too. I'm going to bed. It's been a long day."

"Goodnight Teresita."

"Night mama."

The Next Morning Theresa woke up to a horrible day. She looked outside the window. Rain, wind and wild weather. She went through to the kitchen and saw her mother making breakfast. Miguel was reading the newspaper. Little Ethan was still asleep.

"Morning Teresita." Pilar said.

"Morning Mama, Miguel."

"Good morning Theresa. Good sleep?"

"Fine."

Little Ethan starts crying. "Miguel can you tend to Little Ethan? I need to talk to your sister in private." Pilar said stopping what she was doing.

"Sure." Miguel says getting up and leaving the room.

"Mija, I was thinking in last night about you and Fox and I thought maybe it is for the best if you tell Whitney sooner than we planned."

"I agree. It's Fox you need to talk to that about though."

"You are going to talk to him Theresa."

"Mama he despises me now."

"No he doesn't."

"Yes he does!"

"Your talking rubbish. Go and get dressed I want you to go see Fox first thing."

"Fine." Theresa walks out of the room and gets dressed. This was going to be a challenge trying to convince Fox to tell Whitney, but she was gonna make it happen.
