The Returning Ex

Sophia smiled all the while. Even after what had happened, she wanted Ian to live a happy life.

Meanwhile, John looked at her but said nothing when she showed no change in emotion. There was scarcely any reason obsessing over that matter at this point. He didn’t think Sophia would go away now that she was pregnant.

Everyone stopped talking and dug in when lunch was served, and John’s mood became better at the thought of the baby. He even ordered some wine, much to the worry of some people there. “I’ll get someone to drive me back if I get too drunk,” he said.

Sophia frowned. “Why didn’t you call Zack over?”

To that, John smiled. “He doesn’t have time for us now that he’s dating. And I don’t think we should disturb him.”

Sophia knew Zack had someone he liked, but she never did ask him about the progress. Zack’s a reliable guy. He’s a prankster sometimes, but reliable nonetheless.
