Rushing back to his wife from a business trip, the businessman picked up a strange old woman...

rushing to his wife from a business trip the businessman picked up a strange old woman on the highway the fortune teller's words made him uneasy dick hurried home to finally see his beloved wife Audrey she had promised to wait for him to return from his business trip and assured him she wouldn't go anywhere that evening Audrey wasn't much of a homebody she was always drawn somewhere sometimes to the stores to meet with friends or just to go somewhere alone and admire the sunset they met about six years ago at that time Dick had just started

working at a private Law Firm his boss valued him and promised to make him his right-hand man dick cherished his job and dedicated all his time to work he dreamed of becoming a co-owner of the firm by his early 30s that day dick was returning home along his usual route suddenly he noticed a girl she looked so fresh and young probably no older than 20 dick was 27 at the time the girl was standing by the roadside her colorful dress gently stirred by a playful Breeze her hair tousled but she didn't seem to care the

most remarkable thing about this young Beauty and she was indeed very beautiful was that she was barefoot strange thought dick unable to resist slowing down are you all right he asked lowering the window except for dropping my sandals in the river yes the girl replied with a Carefree smile she smiled but her dark blue eyes remained cold it reminded him of a magazine photo for clothing advertisements but at that moment blinded by the girl's Beauty dick didn't pay any attention to it wow what did you do to them dick asked jokingly raising an eyebrow I

got lost in thought watching the sun sparkles on the water only when I heard a splash did I realize the sandals were going on so I walk Barefoot do you often walk Barefoot across Bridges no not often I just got terribly blistered I guess it was meant to be with those awful sandals serves them right let me drive you home dick offered oh that would be wonderful she easily fluttered into the passenger seat and into the life of a lonely gu obsessed with work and not at all spoil by female attention two weeks later Audrey

moved from her dorm room to Dick Foster's modest apartment she had recently been invited to collaborate with a small agency she didn't like talking about her job much Audrey don't you want to get an education dick asked one morning at breakfast you can't spend your whole life posing for photos you know dick as long as they want me I'll keep modeling at least I don't have to waste time studying reading and memorizing aren't for me do you mind dick couldn't help himself Audrey had turned his head she was easy and fun to be with the

girl was not stupid so dick was surprised she wasn't striving for something more serious than modeling all right Audrey it's up to you he didn't want to quarrel with his beloved a few months after that conversation dick proposed to Audrey friends and colleagues were surprised that dick smart and ambitious fell for a model who seemed only interested in her looks and perfect photo angles dick don't you think this girl you're planning to marry will bore you quickly his boss asked over lunch at a cafe besides she seems very young and flighty as I see it

no Fred I don't think so you know I get enough complexities at work and at home I want to relax and enjoy life besides with the arrival of a child I think Audrey will settle down and give up her modeling career dick replied dreamily dick was 27 but he was already dreaming of children and quiet family happiness yes he planned to become a co-owner of the firm be able to provide for his family make his wife and children the happiest so they wouldn't need anything unlike his own childhood he was even glad that Audrey didn't

have a serious career where she could build her career soon she would no longer be as interesting to photography ERS who mostly needed young models not married women with children they had a lavish wedding dick and Audrey were a beautiful and very happy couple Dick had to endure a photo shoot ordered by his now wife he understood it was important to Audrey plus they would have beautiful photos to show their children the honeymoon was short both had work waiting for them dick couldn't get enough of his wife she seemed perfect to him attracting him like

a magnet dick gave himself to his feelings with all his passion but Audrey was quite cold with him often not responding to his caresses sometimes even avoiding intimacy dick tried to talk Audrey why not again he asked his wife who was seductively applying cream to her slender legs Dicky I'm so tired the shoot was crazy Sam went wild he made me climb a hill said we urgently needed a photo against the sunset on that damn hill my legs are shaking from The Climb Sweetie maybe it's time to quit these shoots you're a married woman now

time to think about Home Comfort and children dick I never told you I was going to quit modeling I didn't promise to become a cook and a nanny his wife raised her huge black lashed eyes to him besides we can afford a housekeeper you said so yourself yes we can I'm not arguing doing but a housekeeper can't have children for me dick took off his watch and placed it on the nightstand dick what's the rush we've only just got married and you already want to turn me into a balloon on legs Audrey pouted her plump

lips why a balloon on legs her husband didn't understand because all pregnant women look exactly like ballons on legs it's so awful what if I can't get back in shape Audrey baby everything will be fine I'll help you get back in shape I'll show you this wonderful workout right now he pulled his wife by the hand dick not now please I'm so sleepy Audrey lazily screwed the cap back on the cream tube tossed it onto the nightstand and got under the blanket within a minute she was peacefully snoring dick got out of bed and went

to the kitchen he poured himself a glass of water and drank it down in one Gul why was such a stunning woman who aroused wild desire and made him forget everything else so cold sometimes dick thought Audrey didn't need closeness with a man at all it seemed that her photo shoots were enough for her as if they replaced everything else in the world she wasn't ready for having children either dick sat at the table for a while longer and then returned to the bedroom Audrey was asleep and he wandered around for another hour and a

half before falling into a heavy sleep A year had passed since dick and Audrey's wedding of course dick hadn't dreamed of a family life where his wife was busy from morning tonight with either photo shoots Spa visits or meeting friends but he was almost ready to confront the issue directly if Audrey didn't stop ignoring him they should part ways but then something incredible happened Audrey got pregnant dick I'm not ready for motherhood how did this even happen we were careful his wife looked confused and even irritated we'll have to terminate the pregnancy Audrey don't you

dare do that dick jumped up from the chair he was sitting in God is giving us a baby and you want to kill it dick why are you talking like we're in the past Century I'm not against having a child but just not now when I have a major project coming up it means a lot to me suddenly Audrey's phone beeped signaling a message she quickly read it she looked confused and even shocked the girl quickly put the phone into her pants pocket did something happen dick asked worriedly are you okay yes I'm fine Audrey

said gently hugging her husband and pressing her body against him everything's fine future daddy Dick's heart wararmed Audrey no longer wanted to get rid of the baby it was just the hormones acting up that happens with pregnant women it's okay he would surround her with care and attention and Audrey would understand that motherhood is the best thing that could happen to her in life even when her belly rounded and no longer fit into her old clothes Audrey did not stop the photo shoots dick worried something might happen to his wife or their future baby but

convincing Audrey of this was impossible she would start crying as soon as her husband mentioned quitting her job dick comforted his wife and was left alone with his worries while she went off to fulfill yet another project that couldn't be postponed Audrey saw our pregnancy as a way to create a new image for the next photo shoot in the later stages of his wife's pregnancy dick tried to spend as much time with her as possible he surrounded her with care and attention fulfilling her every whim Audrey didn't behave like most expectant mothers she didn't pick

out baby clothes didn't think about the nursery's design didn't show interest in anything related to the baby dick hoped this would change when the daughter was born an ultrasound had shown they were expecting a girl the future father dreamed of holding his little girl of reading her bedtime stories taking her to school and being proud of her achievements during the few hours free from work dick himself dealt with setting up the baby's room and buying everything necessary he wanted the girl to come into the world and immediately feel that she was awaited and loved wanting

to give her the best dick tried his best to avoid that business trip Fred buddy by that time they were co-owners of the company Audrey is due any day now I can't leave her now dick please only you can handle this deal you have a neck for convincing partners of what benefits our company it'll be quick before you know it you'll be back there was nothing to be done he had to go dick got behind the wheel of his brand new powerful and reliable Jeep he hoped to return in time the future father was looking

forward to meeting his daughter and dreaming it would go perfectly if anything happens call me immediately dick said as he was leaving maybe you'd be better off going to the clinic in advance I'll cover all the costs you'll have the best conditions dick everything will be fine I'd rather stay home if necessary I can call an ambulance just in case I'll transfer money so you can cover any expenses but I'll be back quickly I promise this is just a precaution all right Dicky don't worry we'll wait for you Audrey kissed her husband on the cheek

and ruffled his hair when Dick returned he was met with terrible news the labor started very quickly and unexpectedly Audrey was taking into a completely different clinic and Dick's long- awaited daughter was born stillborn dick was inconsolable he cursed that stupid deal he had closed so easily cursed not sending Audrey to the private Clinic they had already arranged with they would have surely saved the baby there everything had been going so well the ultrasound showed a healthy pregnancy and Audrey felt great what surprised dick the most was that his wife seemed completely calm as if

she didn't care that their daughter hadn't survived birth a few days after returning home she was back at her photo shoots which Dick had come to hate dick it's hard for me too but work helps me distract myself no one is to blame that our daughter was born dead it happens we need to live on not dwell on it The Grieving would be father was unable to work properly Fred allowed him to take a week off to recover dick spent long hours in the the baby's room hugging a huge hippo with a yellow bow on

its head and crying yes he cried like a child unable to hold back the tears that tried to wash away the pain in his heart that he could barely endure over time the pain DED and Dick returned to his old life there were business meetings trips piles of papers clients the company thrived its owner incomes grew and their good reputation strengthened the Foster family bought a new house with a small garden living in the old apartment was impossible at least for dick he didn't bring up the subject of children but he secretly hoped he and

his wife would have more babies someday it has been almost four years since that Dreadful day when Dick learned of the death of his baby girl sometimes he tried to bring up the topic of their child but his wife gently stopped him saying that they would definitely have children when the time was right when will that time come dick asked once again Dicky dear it's not my fault that it hasn't happened yet we need time to recover that's what the doctor said everything will work out for us we just need to be patient and wait

for the right moment it's all because of your filming if you had been more careful back then not dragging yourself to your useless job with your belly our daughter would be celebrating her fourth birthday by now dick don't talk nonsense what does my filming have to do with it and don't call my work useless by the way it brings an income we don't need the income Audrey I can provide for our family I just want you and our children to wait for me at home for us to travel together discuss how to celebrate Christmas that's

what I want you know what I don't intend to turn into a housewife and sit with snotty babies all the time photography is is it's very important to me so you don't want children right for you they're just snotty babies you're just feeding me false promises that we will definitely have kids but you dick what am I supposed to do I can't get pregnant on command the doctor said we just need to let go and then it will happen okay baby I'm sorry dick took his wife's hand I was wrong yes we need to let

go I'll go on this business trip now and then we'll go somewhere for a week how do you feel about that you go first and then we'll decide everything Audrey smiled and gave her husband a long kiss dick was returning home in a good mood the goal of the trip was achieved their company would reach a new level the road stretched out in front of him like a gray ribbon the forest surrounded it on both sides evening had already spread its blue Hue and the sky was frowning threatening to rain Dick's eyes were closing he

had been driving for several hours the man hadn't given up his habit of going on business trips in his car that's why he bought a more powerful Jeep dick was fighting off sleep imagining that soon he would be walking with Audrey along the seashore enjoying the cries of seagulls and the Roar of the Waves the salty air would take away all his sorrows and relaxing fully rested his wife might get pregnant again they say that trips to the Sea help with that suddenly an old woman emerged from the forest she looked so miserable and lonely

that Dick's heart achd what if she needed help do you need help ma'am he asked slowing down right next to the old woman it would be good to get to the city son she replied kindly no problem get in I'll give you a lift dick helped the old woman into the car when she took his hand a strange expression crossed her face as if she remembered something or maybe saw something but it lasted only a moment then the strange old woman sat down and they started off they drove in silence for a while then suddenly

the elderly woman said you're in a hurry to your wife yes exactly dick smiled we're planning to go to the Sea you're planning but your wife has very different plans the passenger said sadly what what makes you say that you don't even know my wife I don't need to know her I just say what I see she took away your happiness of being a father and you would have been a very good father to your little girl chills ran down Dick's spine he had never believed in fortune tellers living rationally but this old woman spoke

as if she could see right through him probably just tired that's why I'm paying attention to this nonsense dick thought no one is to blame for our daughter dying at Birth dick said sadly she didn't die at Birth the old woman spoke as if she knew it for sure she lives by the railway in a house with a white flag on the roof what are you what are you saying dick sharply turned the wheel I say what I see stop here please dick pulled over to the side of the road he couldn't argue with this

crazy old woman safe travels she said and disappeared into the trees dick tried to shake off the thoughts swarming in his head where did this strange old woman come from spouting nonsense but this nonsense somehow wouldn't leave his tired mind why did she say his daughter was alive and living by the railway maybe she really was some crazy woman spouting nonsense to everyone she met what was she even doing in that forest alone why did he stop and offer his help he always had to go out of his way but something in the old woman's

words made Dick's heart flutter what was it hope that his daughter was indeed alive yes he was really very tired his mind was clouded if he started believing this nonsense with such gloomy thoughts dick returned home the house was empty why wasn't Audrey meeting him she knew dick was returning this evening they had talked during the day dick dialed his wife's number unavailable strange was she on another of her cursed photo shoots again when will this end dick entered the living room there was a piece of paper on the table he picked it up sat

down in a chair and read dick I'm leaving there's no point in being together anymore we are too different please don't look for me I won't come back anyway forgive me if you can Audrey dick felt like he had been hit over the head with a sledgehammer everything blurred before his eyes your wife has very different plans he suddenly remembered the words of that crazy old woman he had picked up on the highway God what did I do wrong dick exclaimed covering his face with his hands I loved her so much I wanted us to

be happy for the house to be filled with children's laughter I strive to be successful and Wealthy why why did we spend these years together she didn't need anything but those cursed photo shoots and me I just tried to win her favor her smile and warm gaze all in vain she didn't even want a child probably even glad the baby was still born still born a house with a white flag by the railway the old woman's words resurfaced in his mind that evening dick drank half a bottle of whiskey and fell asleep without undressing he

woke up to the sound of the phone ringing yes he answered groping for the phone somewhere near the nightstand with his eyes closed dick buddy I've been trying to reach you for an hour I was about to come over Fred sounded worried Fred I listen I need today I got so drunk yesterday like never before in my life what happened need help I don't know bro I don't know anything okay I'll be there soon Fred H up Frederick black became a true friend to Dick they were bonded by a common cause and almost identical views

on life Fred also started a family early but unlike Audrey his wife bore him three wonderful kids one after another and was happy with her motherhood and she simply adored her husband Fred in turn was madly in love with his wife and his Rascals dick also wanted such family happiness such quiet Joy but things didn't go well for him he didn't recognize Audrey for who she was he just lost his head over her beauty and ignored everyone even his own common since yeah dick you look fantastic Fred laughed when his friend let him into the

house half a bottle of whiskey man and you'll look the same dick replied gloomily and poured himself a glass of cold water listen will you finally tell me what happened where's your beloved onet again never mind she'll age soon and they only need young Beauties anyway probably Audrey is no longer my story Fred dick massaged his nose with his thumb come on did you kick her out for good Fred's eyebrows slowly Rose about time no brother she left on her own took advantage of my trip end even left a note dick picked up the piece

of paper from the floor that had awaited him on the table the previous evening well well you know forgive me but I think this is for the best you've wasted too much time on that flirt she's no good for you I'm telling you I said from the start she wasn't right for you her brain is like a chicken's but that's not even the point you just have completely different values and views on life yeah you're right Fred as always you're right you know I want to tell you something but after this you might not want

to stay my business partner oh my God dick did you find that flighty girl and killed her in the park Fred chuckled no I haven't gone that far yet dick tried to smile I want to tell you about something else yesterday I picked up an old lady on the highway and she and Dick told his friend everything the crazy old lady had said to him Fred listened carefully without interrupting then thought for a moment I understand it sounds like nonsense but I can't get these thoughts out of my head dick leaned back in his chair

and closed his eyes you know what I'll tell you friend it wouldn't hurt to check it out if of course the old lady meant our city as I understood she was talking about our city she said it wasn't far but how do you imagine checking what she told me a house a flag a railroad That's How we'll check there aren't that many houses near the railroad I remember back in college my friend friends and I rented a shack there if you want I'll go with you thanks Fred dick patted his friend on the shoulder thanks

for being here come on so are we going no thank you for everything but I'll go alone I'll pull myself together and go at least to start looking at this place and then we'll see dick parked the car near a playground the railroad was very close the sound sounds of trains speeding along their tracks could be heard there were indeed few houses most of them had already been demolished and neat four-story brick buildings with two entrances had been erected in their place as dick understood it he needed one of the few remaining private houses they

all looked quite old some stood like neglected old men awaiting death near some small front Gardens had been set up with bright flowers pleasing the eye dick inspected all these houses but did not find a flag on the roof yes he was wasting his time the old lady must be truly crazy spouting nonsense dick was about to give up and go home but suddenly a young woman with hair the color of R Ry holding a small smiling Girl by the hand approached him excuse me sir the woman began could you open this bottle for us

it screwed on too tightly Chloe and I have tried everything but it's no use her eyes radiated some kind of unearthly light as if she were holding not a bottle of soda but a Priceless treasure well let's see if we can uncor this drink of Happiness Beauties dick didn't even understand why he spoke that way his heart suddenly felt warm and it even beat a little faster than usual dick Twisted the cap it really didn't want to give up easily then the man used his handkerchief and tried again this time the cap reluctantly began to

turn and finally admitted defeat done girls dick said cheerfully by the way could I have a sip of water of course the woman replied eagerly I happen to have three cups with me I always take an extra one yeah you never know you might come across a traveler's dying of thirst dick smiled broadly they sat on a bench and enjoyed the cool soda on a hot day there was nothing more one could wish for my name is Rihanna the young mother said simply and I'm dick dick Foster he replied and took a sip from his

cup by the way do you happen to know if there's a house with a white flag on the roof around here and why do you ask Rihanna was surprised well I'm looking for someone they said they have a white flag on their house but I haven't noticed any flag there was a flag on the roof of Khloe's and my house Rihanna said somewhat worriedly but there was a strong wind last night the pole broke God knows where it flew off to Dick first looked at the woman then shifted his gaze to Khloe who was sitting

on the bench swinging her legs she had a cute little dimple on her right cheek and big brown eyes it couldn't be could this girl really be his daughter but I don't know you Rihanna said Softly maybe you're mistaken I've made many mistakes in my life dick said sadly but I think I'm on the right path here help me hang on that ladder Chloe suddenly asked jumping off the bench and approaching dick mom can't reach it well let's go show me where you want to hang dick smiled and stood up from the bench handing his

cup of water to Rihanna 10 minutes later they both returned happy and plopped down on the bench thank you dick Rihanna looked him gratefully I really can't manage to spot Chloe like that I'm not tall enough but you have a bright Soul dick said unexpectedly even to himself Rihanna just smiled slightly let's buy some ice cream and go home to eat it Chloe suggested I'm in dick responded well I don't mind hooray the little girl jumped up and down Chloe usually doesn't like strangers it's surprising how easily she tipped to You Rihanna said as she

got up from the bench there's a shop nearby they have amazing ice cream dick is kind Chloe assured her mother bouncing impatiently he's fun to be with they ate ice cream in the small kitchen dick hadn't felt such peace and unity since childhood there was no need to choose words carefully play a role or act a certain way they could just just chat and eat ice cream after a while Chloe ran off to watch her favorite cartoon leaving dick and Rihanna alone from Rihanna's story dick learned that her husband had died while she was still

pregnant apart from my Chloe I have no one in the World Rihanna said would you like some coffee yes I would dig nodded dick didn't know how to start the conversation about Khloe possibly being his daughter he couldn't figure it out just as he was about to leave he noticed a hairbrush clearly a child's it was full of Khloe's hair dick stealy collected them all and slipped them into his pocket when no one was looking will you come visit us again Chloe asked looking straight into Dick's eyes I will he replied confidently And you'll hang

on that high ladder again dick didn't go home immediately on the way he stopped by a laboratory he was determined to find out if Khloe was his daughter or not his mind told him it couldn't be but his heart wouldn't listen and pushed him to check dick didn't resist perhaps for the first time in his life he listened to his heart instead of being a prisoner of his rationality dick returned home tired but somehow fulfilled it had been so nice sitting in the kitchen with Rihanna chatting over coffee it felt wonderful to walk with her

little girl and feel like a hero how little the person needs for happiness for true happiness around 9 in the evening an email arrived from the lab with a pounding heart the man who longed for a family and children opened it blood rushed to his head he read the result 20 times but nothing changed he was the girl's father dick couldn't sleep that night it was good that the next day was a day off so he didn't have to get up early and go anywhere he kept thinking about how it was possible that his daughter

didn't die at Birth as the doctors had reported her death they were immediately given a death certificate for their baby had there been a mistake or had someone intentionally arranged this the image of Audrey with her cold eyes came to mind only now did Dick realize that his wife's eyes had never laughed her smiles were always for the photographer and there you don't have to reveal your soul you just need to present the Right image and choose the right angle he involuntarily remembered Rihanna's eyes radiant and sincere such eyes you wanted to look into forever

even though there was nothing extraordinary about them they simply made your soul feel warm and very calm Dick had been missing this feeling for many years dick decided that he had to find out the whole truth no matter what even if Rihanna forbade him from seeing Khloe it was her right the woman had raised the girl from birth after all a mother is not the one who gives birth but the one who raises the child as Folk wisdom says dick couldn't bear it any longer on Friday after work he bought sweets fruits and some toys

for Chloe and headed to the house by the railway by the time dick arrived the drizzle from the morning had turned into a full downpour raindrops drummed on the car roof the slide and the ladders on the playground puddles bubbled swallowing more and more raindrops with a pounding heart dick pressed the doorbell Rihanna stood at the door she had clearly just come out of the shower her hair was wet and her face was flushed hi she greeted him dick thought he heard joy in her voice hi sorry if this is a bad time no not

at all come in Chloe will be so happy to see you and I will too Rihanna blushed slightly two hours flew by a noticed they drank tea with sweets and played various games that dick had bought Chloe fell asleep right on the rug in the small living room hugging a black cat that looked so real dick really wanted to surprise the girl so he tried to choose something special he succeeded Chloe fell in love with the cat from the first moment and immediately named it Cherry Rihanna can we talk for a bit there's something I

want to ask you dick looked into her eyes when they had just put Chloe to bed together yes ask of course if I can I'll answer tell me Chloe she's not your biological daughter is she Rihanna raised her greay green eyes to dick and opened her mouth but couldn't utter a sound Chloe is my daughter the woman finally managed to say I won't give her to anyone calm down Rihanna I didn't come here to take your child away from you but just to understand what happened back then more than 4 years ago my wife Audrey

said that our daughter was still born and then we were given a death certificate Audrey Foster the woman asked sharply yes she's my wife ex-wife do you know something about her I only know that she tried in every way to get rid of her newborn daughter what do you mean dick didn't understand and Rihanna told him everything that happened more than four years ago in a small maternity hospital on the outskirts of the city Rihanna had a difficult pregnancy it was understandable the young woman had lost her husband when she was 3 months pregnant she

was left all alone without support she was put on bed rest about a month before the expected due date lots of IVs injections pills Rihanna was eagerly waiting for her daughter the fruit of her love with her husband there were few women in labor that night this maternity hospital was not popular among expectant mothers small on the edge of the city with not very new equipment they were planning to close it down or rebuild it Rihanna was already in labor when Audrey was brought in she kept complaining about the pain saying she didn't want this

child at all and that she had no time for kids right now as she had a big project coming up at work the women gave birth almost simultaneously but Rihanna's baby couldn't be saved asfixia and severe malnutrition Audrey gave birth to a perfectly healthy girl but the mother didn't even look at her child that's when Ranna made a desperate move listen give me your daughter she cried what you are willing to take the child Audrey stared at Rihanna I Can't Live I was so looking forward to my baby I recently lost my husband and now

my daughter has gone to heaven barely born you can't imagine what a favor you'd be doing me if we exchanged our children how lucky that we both have girls Rihanna looked so happy as if she had won a million dollars she paid the doctor and the Midwife they had nothing to lose both mothers agreed to The Exchange so there was no crime only helped to achieve what each desired a daughter for one freedom from a child for the other everything was documented Ed properly Audrey was discharged 2 days later and Rihanna went home with her

long awaited daughter even though she was not her biological child dick listened and couldn't utter a word he couldn't wrap his head around the fact that Audrey had done such a terrible thing she had deprived him of the happiness of being a father she must have lied about not taking any contraceptives Audrey never intended to let this happen again becoming a mother was not part of her plan for the next 10 years maybe more she had her photo shoots waiting she probably didn't even terminate the pregnancy because it was beneficial to her maybe the photographer

suggested some crazy project where a pregnant woman was needed it was never clear how Audrey was photographed she never talked about it and tried to change the subject if dick ever started asking questions now all of that of course no longer mattered What mattered was that Chloe was daughter and she was very lucky with her mother Rihanna tried to give the girl the best of everything although she was financially constrained fortunately the young mother managed to find remote work at a Transport company she adored Chloe and thanked fate that Audrey Foster had exchanged her for

the baby who had gone to a better place so early my God I blamed myself for years for not saving my daughter for not forbidding Audrey from running around to those silly photo shoots and all all this time my girl was living here dick pressed his forehead against his clasped hands elbows on his knees Audrey Foster Rihanna said slowly pushing an empty cup away you know I didn't even know she was married she looked like a young girl I can imagine how hard it was for you Rihanna touched Dick's shoulder they were silent for a

while how did you find out about all this Rihanna asked gently how did you find us you won't believe it or you'll think I'm crazy dick said slowly if you want I'll tell you everything I'll tell you the incredible story that happened to me on the road a few days ago yes I want to hear it please I promise I won't think you're crazy you're not crazy you're a very good person you would have gotten along great with my late husband he was just as kind and Soulful then dick told everything that had happened to

him on the highway that night when he was returning home from a business trip full of Hope yes dick it's all very strange and surprising Rihanna gathered her hair in a bundle at the back of her head with a rubber band which she quickly removed from the wrist of her left hand say you're not going to take my Chloe away from me are you I realized that she's your own daughter but no of course not Rihanna it's cruel to take a child away from from its mother just let me be in your life he looked

into her eyes thank you dick she put her hand on his wrist Rihanna's Palm was slightly cool and her skin was very soft dick suddenly felt like he wanted to hold this cute blonde against him and never let go again so you'll let me see Chloe and you too dick looked at the woman questioningly his eyes were waiting for an answer of course dick you have the right to do that but let's not tell Chloe the whole truth just yet let her get used to you okay whatever you say re that's what my mom used

to call me when I was little she smiled my mom called me rabbit when I was a kid why Rihanna wondered I loved carrots just to the point of insanity you're so full of it I have a bag of fresh carrots in the refrigerator can I get some they both laughed each of them was thinking about something different but a common thought crossed ranas and Dick's minds they felt as if they had met after a long separation that's what happens when you are separated from a friend for a long time and then you meet him

and realize how poor life was without him what only tricks do not make up a rascal fate to make two people meet sometimes they have to go through a lot of tests to then find happiness dick tried not to think about what he could do with Rihanna he just felt good in this house good that he had found his daughter and now he could communicate with her nor did Rihanna think about anything else dick burst into her measured life like a whirlwind this Whirlwind brought a sea of positive emotions and her and her cute baby

Chloe it was already getting dark outside the window and they were still sitting across from each other and neither of them wanted it to end there was clearly something amazing and unusual ahead of them fate wouldn't bring these two together so easily much less put them through so many trials
