Chapter 6
In the week that had past since Gabriella had lost the baby she hadn't spoken to anyone, she ate, drank, went to work and slept. Of course she had to speak to her boss, colleagues and clients but she acted like everything was fine.
She was currently in a meeting with a couple who were getting divorced.
"Ok so it looks like everything is in order here just need a reason to the divorce," says Gabriella placing her hands on the paper and looking at the couple sat across from her.
"We couldn't conceive," says the lady Jeanne
"We had pregnancy after pregnancy and they were all miscarriages or stillborn," says the man Paul
"Oh my gosh," says Gabriella "I don't need to put the reason down," she adds
"Thank you," says Paul
"In the end we just kept fighting and didn't see the point in being together anymore," says Jeanne
"May I ask how you cope with something like that?" asks Gabriella
"Is this for the report?" asks Jeanne
"No I recently had a miscarriage stillborn baby I don't know how to deal," says Gabriella
"You didn't look pregnant," says Jeanne
"I was only 3 weeks," says Gabriella
"You don't," says Paul
"What?" asks Gabriella
"Paul's right you don't get over it. You move on and carry on with life and leave a special place in your heart for that baby," says Jeanne
"Thank you," says Gabriella
Later that day Gabriella came to the smell of Chicken Korma.
"Hey," calls Gabriella
"Hey," Troy calls back
"So I had to clients today who are getting divorced because of miscarriages apparently you don't get over you move on and keep the baby in your heart," says Gabriella coming up behind Troy wrapping her arms around his torso. Not noticing the guests seated at the table.
Troy turns to her and as she angles her lips to meet his.
The sound of someone clearing their throat reaches her ears.
She turns her head to see Taylor and Chad seated at the table.
Startled she pulls herself from Troy's grasp and runs to her room.
Taylor stands up.
"I'll go you serve the chicken," says Troy throwing his dish cloth on the counter.
As he enters Gabriella's room he can hear the shower in bathroom. But when he enters the bathroom Gabriella is sat crying on the floor.
"Hey what's wrong?" asks Troy
"I I I want my baby back," cries Gabriella
Sitting next to her Troy cradles Gabriella in his arms rocking her gently
"What do we do about Taylor and Chad?" asks Troy
"Tell them were back together but not about the baby or that were sleeping together. The miscarriage is still too fresh and I don't want to get into it," whispers Gabriella leaning her head on Troy's shoulder.
They sit there for a while and then Gabriella gets up and heads to her room. Following behind Troy turns the shower off before heading though to the lounge to tell their friends there were back together.
