A Moment in Destiny

With a cigarette between his fingers, he took one puff and then another.

He stood there all night, waiting.

He wanted to go inside and explain however he didn’t know what to say. He was angry that he was always unconsciously hurting Sherry, angry about his own carelessness and angry that he was also causing her such pain. Why did he secretly make up his mind to give her happiness, yet be failing to give her the happiness he said he would give her?

She really must be upset!

Outside the alley.

Celia let out a quiet sigh, when she left last night she had seen William’s car however chose to ignore him. When she came this morning and noticed he was still here, she saw the back of him, frowned and then walked over.

“William, you’ve been here the whole night? Standing here like some door guard?”

As he suddenly turned around and saw Celia he immediately felt awkward, and for the first time he was so embarrassed that he didn’t know what to say.

Celia was startled, a little surprised. “You really have been here the whole night?”

William made a noise as if to confirm this and then took another puff of his cigarette.

“William, why haven’t you gone inside? Since you have something you want to say, then what is stopping you from going inside?” Celia’s gaze fell onto William’s face.

He looked stiff, and remained silent.

“When will this having two lovers at the same time come to end?” Celia continued to ask, “Today I just want to ask you, Sherry or Lucy, who have you decided to choose?”

William took another puff of the cigarette; he had been thinking all night long however he still didn’t know what to do. The way that things were right now, really must be hurting Sherry so much!

As he thought of how Sherry smiled yesterday, he only felt a knife plunging deeper into his heart, so painful that he couldn’t breathe anymore. He knew that he really needed to make a decision.

“I just want Sherry!” His tone was firm and resolute. “And this decision has not been changed just because it’s you who is asking!”

“Then let go of Lucille, whether she is alive or dead has nothing to do with you!” Celia’s personality was a lot different to Sherry’s, for she would never let herself suffer such pain, nor would she let her friend suffer. “Sherry is not alone and without support, you didn’t want to bully her, however she had to endure much although it was painful for her. I don’t know what happened between you two but yesterday Sherry was feeling so helpless.”

William’s body trembled, his heart cut like a knife. "I know!"

“You know you have hurt her? Don’t you know that right now she is even unable to be angry? Her body…”

“What’s wrong with her body?” William immediately began to feel anxious.

After Celia said this she suddenly thought about last night how Sherry begged her not to tell anyone about her pregnancy. Celia swallowed back her words and eased her tone as she then said, “She’s fine, it’s just she’s so frail that being angry would not be good for her body!”

William breathed a sigh of relief; he really thought that something was wrong with Sherry!
