Cam popped his head in and told Bernie that he was going to go and see his dad. Bernie nodded and said nothing. Curious, Serena stopped him by the door.
'Are we going to meet him sometime?'
'Sure. Hopefully soon.' He didn't look so sure. Serena could guess why.
'You mean, without Bernie.'
'Well. Things are a bit awkward between them.'
'So I've heard.'
'What did she tell you?'
'Everything, I think.'
'I thought you two were being a bit off with each other.'
'I can't say I appreciate what she did but at least she was honest with me. It would have made more sense if she and Alex had stayed together though.'
'They were in different places in their lives I suppose. She was a bit younger, wanted to go places, had no kids. It probably never would have worked out between them. I'm glad to be honest. Maybe now I would have been ok with it but back then it was such a mind fuck.'
Serena was astounded. So she hadn't been told everything, thanks to the timely interruption. What Bernie had said was starting to make sense.
'I can imagine.'
