Chapter 114: IT IS COMPLICATED, MR LANCASTER
Though, there was no real need for telling Dante all this truth, in fact Dove did not even know why was she telling him these.
But she just felt like telling. Because maybe he trusted her? She hasn’t even told her grandfather any of it yet. Lisa knew, because she was a little part of it, and Dove was thankful for it.
But Dante? He was a complete different person who had nothing to do with it, even if he did not know. But Dove still did not why was she telling him all this.
After she was done, she smiled at him a little bitterly and said, "Now maybe, the image you had of me must have shattered. What Cara Davis said there, wasn’t all completely wrong, Mr Davis. I really don’t know how the father of my child is. And all I have ever heard from him was a letter? Was it from him, I don’t even know that."
It would be a lie if Dante said that he wasn’t shocked to hear all of this. After all, now that listened the whole gravity of the situation back then, from Dove herself did he understand it.
He then looked at her, and asked, "So you still believe in that letter? Are you still waiting for him?" And as he asked that, his heart beat caught speed. Because her answered mattered a lot. After all, that letter was sent by him himself!
On being asked this, Dove smiled a little and said, "It is complicated, Mr Lancaster. It would be wrong if I said that yes, but then it would also be wrong if I say that no."
Dante did not understand and looked at her in question. Dove took a minute and then said, "I am not really waiting for anyone Mr Lancaster. After all, it has already been four years and no one showed up. In fact I don’t even know if it was something real or someone just pranked with me.
If someone was to come, then he would have come by now, Mr Lancaster. There was no name, no address, just an promise of support." Dove then sighed and said again, "But then that letter, it was also something that held me during some times, when I thought I would just shatter.
