-"You'll never know when it happens love is a strange feeling" had said Ilene
-"But Is there a written path to love Mummy" had asked Serena
-"No dear… there is no such think. Each of you will have to make your own path to find love"
-"I will never fall in love… girls are such a nuisance… just look at Serena"
And then fights used to start again
End of flashback…
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
*~ *~ Chapter ten: an uncertain future ~*~*
Serena walked back home thinking about all the recent events… 'so much has happened and nothing will be the same again… never'
As she got back home… Ilene was waiting for her
-"We really need to talk Serena" she had said
-"I know mother, I know"
The two of them went to the kitchen where Ilene had prepared some tea and some cookies… 'Mom, you're still the same' Serena thought sadly… After settling down and eating a few cookies, Ilene started
-"Have you decided on what you're going to do?"
-"About what?"
-"Everything dear… your studies for one thing" Ilene stated before hesitating and continuing "…and… Darien?"
-"I don't know… I want to continue and get into university.. unfortunately, I never finished high school.. and…"
-"It's not too late Serena"
-"I know… it's just that… well, it's not easy going back …"
-"Rena, I'm glad you what to continue"
-"Mom, I want to be strong? Will you help me?" Serena asked
-"Of course dear, of course"
-"Somehow… I will need to deal with Darien by myself…What should I do?"
-"Only you can answer that Serena, only your heart and soul can guide you"
-"How come you were so sure about Dad?"
-"Well, you know, those days, it was not as complicated… our parents had practically arranged our meeting… and… well… Ken was just as adorable.." Ilene was giggling as she was remembering her first meetings with Ken
-"Mom, I'll need time… I'll need time"
-"You'll have all the time you need" interrupted Ken as he entered the kitchen
-"Dad?"
-"But I'd be glad if you… could finish your studies"
Both women looked at each other and laughed
-"I was planning on doing so Dad" Serena answered between giggles
-"I'm a happy man then"
-"I never realised how much it was important before leaving for Paris… never" she commented "Now I know…I've learned how much studies are important…"
*~*~*~*
The next morning at the Tokyo University campus
-"I would like to fill in for the paramedic degree please" Serena started
-"I see you want to become a nurse" the lady asked her
-"Yes, I would love to heal people…" Serena thought and to herself 'I need to be healed as well…"
-"Okay miss… here you are"
-"I have to fill all this… oh my gosh…it's going to take ages…"
-"I'll help you don't worry miss" the lady said laughing, "you're lucky that there is no one else"
-"Thank you so much…" Serena was genuinely happy
After the casualties… name, address… and so on … the education part came in
-"I haven't finished high school" Serena said unsurely
-"Are you planning on finishing your high school?"
-"Not really… it's too much of bad memories…"
-"Okay… you're lucky that the university can accept you… however, you will need to take a special university entrance exam… that's the only condition required" the lady told her
-"That's fine with me…thanks so much for everything Mrs Shunto
-"You're welcome Ms Tsukino" she answered back "You'll get a paper in about two weeks with the dates of the exam… best of luck"
With that Serena left the university entry bureau. 'I'll be starting a new life… let's make the most out of it'
As she was walking around the campus… she noticed a familiar face
-"Molly, it's you!!!!" Serena asked with a little excitement as she recognised one of her high school friend
-"Rena?!?" Molly was taken aback… "Is that you? What are you doing at the university? And why did you not call or anything as you came back …"
-"Oh Molly… I'll explain… I promise… but not right here…" Serena stated seeing curious faces looking at he
-"Oh… sorry, I have to introduce you to Mike… my future colleague … he is doing medicine just like me…"
-"Nice to meet you Mike"
-"The pleasure is mine" he answered
-"Molly, I'll catch you later, kay?" Serena told her …
-"No problem Rena…" she laughed
-"Thanks, I'll call you"
-"See you then later"
With that, Serena was out… and was at the but stop waiting to get back home and tell her parents. 'Molly has changed so much… I can't believe. Obviously… motherhood must be changing you quite a bit'
Serena was amazed by what Molly was doing… she was married, with kid and was continuing her studies and planning to become a surgeon… 'It had always been her dream…'
Her thoughts was cut short as she heard her name being called
-"Serena…" a voice called out from a sports car
-"Er…Darien?"
-"Yeah… what are you doing here? Came to see Molly?" he asked her
-"I saw her… she seems fine" Serena told before adding "I'm going to continue my studies… seriously this time"
-"Hey Rena, need a trip back home?"
-"No Darien, I'd…"
-"Come on Rena… I can see you are dying to get into this car…"
-"Okay… one condition…"
-"Whatever you want sweetie" he laughed
-"I get to drive"
'I shouldn't have spoken so quickly… Now it's too late… just hope she can drive properly'
-"I can drive Darien" she told him seeing his hesitations
-"Fine then, lets check that out"
Twenty minutes later… Serena stopped the car in front of her house
-"Waouh… you can drive after all" Darien said
-"Why… you macho man…" she laughed…
One could think that Serena and Darien were acting like they used to fight as kids… somehow, the two were very tensed. As Serena opened the door and got out… Darien jumped to the driver's seat and asked her about her plans
-"My plans… what plans?" she asked him back
-"For tonight? I'd like to have dinner with you?"
-"I'm not sure that's such a good idea"
-"Please Serena… we need to get things cleared between the two of us"
-"Okay then, come and fetch me at 8.
-"Fine.. see you tonight Serena" Darien said before driving away…
*~*~*~*
That evening
-"Sharp to time I can see" Serena commented
-"Yes I am"
-"And where is Matthew?"
-"With my parents… they are looking after firm"
-"Oh…okay"
-"Serena, where do you want to go?"
Serena did not answer immediately… She starred at Darien and then she told him she wanted to go to his country house…
-"Did I hear you clearly?" Darien asked her
-"Is there a problem in going there?" she answered back
-"Well… no… it's just that…"
-"So… if there is no problem… let's get going…" she continued
The driving towards Darien's country house was very silent… both of them were looking ahead of them… nothing more, nothing less…
*~*~*~*
At the country house
Serena was rather nervous being with Darien… 'He seems to be in the same state as I'm in'
Serena sat down on the leather couch and looked up at Darien as he spoke
-"Sere… do you want to drink anything…" he asked her
-"Some juice would do Darien" she replied
-"Okay, just give me a minute" he said and went to the kitchen to fetch some apple juice
'Give you a minute… my love… I've already waited for so long now…'
-"Here we are" Darien came back with two full glasses of Apple Juice "Still your favourite, right?"
-"You haven't forgotten…"
-"Of course not … Sere… I haven't forgotten a thing…" he said huskily as Serena was drinking her apple juice and nearly choked
-"Darien…"
-"Please… just give us a chance of happiness… I … find it so hard …"
-"And what about me?"
-"I love you Serena"
He bent down and reached for her lips… and kissed her lightly. Serena tried to fight this but could only give in as her heart was beating fast… As Darien pulled out… he sat near Serena and just took her hands and kissed them both… in a way a lover would do so… and she blushed.
He reached again to kiss her… but this time she stopped him…
-"Darien, please…" she had said
-"What is it my love…"
-"So much has happened … I'm not sure…" she said
-"Care to talk about it?" Darien asked her
-"I'm not sure…" she was hesitating…
Seeing her hesitations, Darien insisted
-"Tell me Sere, what is wrong? What happened to you in Paris" he cautiously asked
-"Nothing Darien, it's nothing really" she said with blank emotions and looked intensely at Darien.
-"What is wrong my love" he asked her
-"Darien, do you really love me?"
-"Do you doubt about my love for you?"
-"Prove it Darien, right now, right here"
Darien kissed her with full passion… letting his heart speak freely… Serena answered back as well with equal passion… her hands roaming all over his chest … before tearing off his shirt
-"Serena, do you realise you tore one of my best shirts?" he said surprised
-"I can do much more than that Darien..." she said before getting back her hands back into exploration…. Serena meddled with his pants before unbuckling his belt and removing his pants… before moving away from Darien.
Serena began then to dance in front of him… a dance she only could perform… and it was a marvel for him… She was stripping…
-"Man… I would believe you've been doing that all your life" Darien exclaimed
Serena looked at him but did not answer him… she continued her performance… as though in one of her hottest shows…
Darien was glued to her… his mouth open and watering over her movements
'He like all the others… only for my body' Serena was thinking
As she removed her last garment, Darien was fully aroused… and it was clear that one thing was on his mind right now…
Serena slowly approached Darien… Darien was now lying on his back and Serena placed herself on top of him… Darien placed his hands behind her and pushed her roughly towards him… and with no preliminaries… just entered her…
*~*~*~*
A few hours later…
-"Tell me my love…" he asked her suddenly "what has happened to you in Paris? did you get hurt.. did…"
-"Nothing could have hurt me Darien… nothing the way you have hurt me…"
-"I love you Serena… you know that, don't you? And I know you love me as well… we are destined to be together?"
-"Then why did you leave me?"
-"My love… I… want you to become my wife… and you will see how deeply I love you, for now and always… Serena, I would be honoured if you would accept marrying me" Darien asked her, producing a ring in front of her eyes.
-"I love you Darien, I always had and probably always will…" Serena added with tears
- "…My love…"
-"Please Darien, let me finish… you have a child… and I…"
-"We will have tons of kids Sere… I" Darien tried to intervene
-"I don't … I'm terrified on getting anymore children… my first one was taken from me and now…"
-"Sere, Matthew adores you"
-"I'm not his mother, I'll never be"
-"You could try"
-"NO, don't you understand???"
-"I'm trying to… but you're making things so complicated"
-"Darien, as much as I love you… we … cannot continue this way any longer… it's not fair… not fair for all of us"
-"Are you giving up on us Sere? Is that what you're trying to say" said Darien angrily
-"You gave up on us when you slept with Katarina" Serena answered back fuming at his comment "How dare you try and criticize me… You never wrote to me and … fell for another woman… and I'm supposed to be understanding? Is that what you're trying to make me understand"
-"I cannot change the past Sere… but..."
-"Unfortunately nor can I… but you cheated Darien, you… you…" Serena was in tears
Darien slowly took her in his embrace and just held her tight
-"I'll never leave you again my love, never"
-"I don't know Darien… "
-"Don't you trust me?" he asked
-"NO" answered Serena coldly pushing Darien back "Just leave me alone Darien"
-"But Sere…we've…" he was not going to give up so easily
-"We've what? Made love? Is that what you're getting at? So what?" she stated furiously.
-"You let me down last time after sex… just this time… I'm careful… I'm on the pill… so I won't get pregnant Darien… No way…"
-"You're saying that now my love…"
-"Just let me go…" Serena tried to get out of the bed put his hand caught her wrist "What are you going to do?"
-"Sere…"
-"Now what are you going to say" she snapped
-"Fine then, just go away… but before you leave… I need to understand what made you want to come to my country home, make love to me and then decide you don't me any longer?!?"
-"Are you the police or something??? No, I have no obligation to answer you…"
Darien resigned and let go her wrist… Serena quickly got dressed, not caring to see whether Darien was observing her or not… she then left his house and, managed to catch a cab…
Darien could not help wander 'What's her point? Why did she want to make love to me, admit she loves me and then leave me?'
Darien waited a few more minutes before getting dressed up and left his country home and go back to his parent's house to fetch Matthew before getting to his apartment…
As Matthew was exhausted, he quickly fell into his bed… and slept few seconds after…
'Damm this apartment seems so empty…' Indeed he had moved in with Katarina when he married her… and then Matthew came into scene… 'Dammit Serena, why was I not there for you… for our child'
Darien was angry, angry at himself… 'I'm a foul…'
That night, he could not sleep… he was thinking about Serena 'Why did she go… we could have been together…"
*~*~*~*
Meanwhile…
Serena was in her room… thinking of her evening out with the man she loved 'How stupid I am… why did I leave him like that? What is he going to think?' Her tears were flowing down her cheeks… 'Darien… you're like any other male I saw in Paris…' Serena was feeling the other men's eyes on her and was totally disgusted by what she had done back then… 'I'm a whore… It's just as if I'm one… just that I never fucked them …' and while she was trying to think clear… drowsiness fell upon her and she fell asleep…
*~*~*~*
The next day…
Serena woke up and still felt dizzy from the events of last night… she loved Darien so much… 'so much that it hurts me like hell' However, she did not want to suffer… and seeing Matthew would only remind her of her child… but not having Darien reminds her of him as well…
She decided to seek advice and called up Molly
-"Hello, Molly speaking"
-"Molly, it's me…"
-"Rena? Is anything wrong?"
-"Well, I don't really know… I love Darien… but…" Serena was not sobbing
-"Rena, do you want me to come over?"
-"I'd really appreciate"
-"Give me about half an hour, okay?"
-"Fine"
*~*~*~*
A little later …
-"… But you love Darien"
-"I do.. but I'm not sure I could cope with my unborn baby, Matthew, Katarina…"
-"He loves you"
-"But he got married to someone else…"
-"Rena… I could say the same thing…"
-"What do you mean?"
-"Serena, you were dating Seya… I know he was … is … really attached to you … but now… I'm with him"
-"What are you tried to get at Molly?"
-"We all make mistakes Serena … and … we need to have many experiences or choices in order to make the right decision…"
Flashback…
-"You'll never know when it happens love is a strange feeling" had said Ilene
-"But Is there a written path to love Mummy" had asked Serena
-"No dear… there is no such think. Each of you will have to make your own path to find love"
-"I will never fall in love… girls are such a nuisance… just look at Serena"
And then fights used to start again
End of flashback…
-"You're probably right Molly… its just so hard to accept…"
-"Rena… after all… when you had no news of Darien, you dated Seya…"
-"Do you think he will still want me in his life now?"
-"Of course… he loves you… probably always had… you should go and see him Rena… if you want, I can drop you in front of his office… and go and fetch my son"
-"Okay Molly… just give me a minute"
*~*~*~*
In front of Shield's Corporation Ltd …
-"Thanks so much Molly…"
-"No problem Serena… I have to go now"
-"Bye…"
Serena was standing outside for a long time and then decided to go inside the office premises…
-"May I help you M'am?" asked the receptionist
-"I am here to see Mr Shield" Serena answered
-"Do you have an appointment?" she asked
-"No but…"
-"… I'm sorry but Mr Shield has asked me not to disturb him unless it is really important" the receptionist answered arrogantly
'Well, well… she does not seem to like me much… I guess Darien finds it amusing in having his employees falling for him'
-"Could you tell him Mrs Tsukino is here with an offer for a big contract" Serena told her
-"Oh I'm sorry" the receptionist told "You're only here on business"
'What kind of receptionist is she?!?'
-"Mr Shields I have a Mrs Tsukino with a contract order" said the receptionist
-"What the hell?" Darien answered
-"Do you want me to send her out ?"
-"No tell her to come up Theresa"
Theresa looked at Serena for a second before giving her the details of how to go to Darien's office
Serena managed her way and knocked at Darien's door and entered…
-"Serena what are you doing here?"
-"Darien, I don't know what to say…"
-"You told Theresa about a contract… I see you can come up with stories easily"
-"No I haven't lied at all…"
-"Oh… so then, it's for business you're here… I was hoping… well…"
-"Darien… I came here to deal with a life offer" Serena told him tried to hide a smile
-"What… are you nuts… where are you working?!? Do you want to kill me or something???"
-"Well… not quite… I was thinking of some other arrangement actually" Serena was now grinning
-"I don't get it … I'll need you to make things a little simpler"
-"Darien… I was told that many paths lead to love and that we need to follow different ones to find the right one"
-"Are are you trying to get at Serena?" Darien asked her, a little unsure
-"I love you Darien, I always had and probably always will…"
-"Sere…. please don't tell me that you've come here to break me again …"
-"Darien, I'd be honoured to become your wife"
End
Okay, okay… I could have finished with their marriage or something or with Serena ending up having kids and becoming a grandmother… Anyways, don't forget… it may be hard… but there is always someone special you'd be looking for… and, as a friend of mine told me once "if you love someone, you must be willing to let him/her go… and if you're meant to be together… he/she will come back to you"

-"Nothing could have hurt me Darien… nothing the way you have hurt me…"
-"I love you Serena… you know that, don't you? And I know you love me as well… we are destined to be together?"
-"Then why did you leave me?"
-"My love… I… want you to become my wife… and you will see how deeply I love you, for now and always… Serena, I would be honoured if you would accept marrying me" Darien asked her, producing a ring in front of her eyes.
-"I love you Darien, I always had and probably always will…" Serena added with tears
- "…My love…"
-"Please Darien, let me finish… you have a child… and I…"
-"We will have tons of kids Sere… I" Darien tried to intervene
-"I don't … I'm terrified on getting anymore children… my first one was taken from me and now…"
-"Sere, Matthew adores you"
-"I'm not his mother, I'll never be"
-"You could try"
-"NO, don't you understand???"
-"I'm trying to… but you're making things so complicated"
-"Darien, as much as I love you… we … cannot continue this way any longer… it's not fair… not fair for all of us"
-"Are you giving up on us Sere? Is that what you're trying to say" said Darien angrily
-"You gave up on us when you slept with Katarina" Serena answered back fuming at his comment "How dare you try and criticize me… You never wrote to me and … fell for another woman… and I'm supposed to be understanding? Is that what you're trying to make me understand"
-"I cannot change the past Sere… but..."
-"Unfortunately nor can I… but you cheated Darien, you… you…" Serena was in tears
Darien slowly took her in his embrace and just held her tight
-"I'll never leave you again my love, never"
-"I don't know Darien… "
-"Don't you trust me?" he asked
-"NO" answered Serena coldly pushing Darien back "Just leave me alone Darien"
-"But Sere…we've…" he was not going to give up so easily
-"We've what? Made love? Is that what you're getting at? So what?" she stated furiously.
-"You let me down last time after sex… just this time… I'm careful… I'm on the pill… so I won't get pregnant Darien… No way…"
-"You're saying that now my love…"
-"Just let me go…" Serena tried to get out of the bed put his hand caught her wrist "What are you going to do?"
-"Sere…"
-"Now what are you going to say" she snapped
-"Fine then, just go away… but before you leave… I need to understand what made you want to come to my country home, make love to me and then decide you don't me any longer?!?"
-"Are you the police or something??? No, I have no obligation to answer you…"
Darien resigned and let go her wrist… Serena quickly got dressed, not caring to see whether Darien was observing her or not… she then left his house and, managed to catch a cab…
Darien could not help wander 'What's her point? Why did she want to make love to me, admit she loves me and then leave me?'
Darien waited a few more minutes before getting dressed up and left his country home and go back to his parent's house to fetch Matthew before getting to his apartment…
As Matthew was exhausted, he quickly fell into his bed… and slept few seconds after…
'Damm this apartment seems so empty…' Indeed he had moved in with Katarina when he married her… and then Matthew came into scene… 'Dammit Serena, why was I not there for you… for our child'
Darien was angry, angry at himself… 'I'm a foul…'
That night, he could not sleep… he was thinking about Serena 'Why did she go… we could have been together…"
*~*~*~*
Meanwhile…
Serena was in her room… thinking of her evening out with the man she loved 'How stupid I am… why did I leave him like that? What is he going to think?' Her tears were flowing down her cheeks… 'Darien… you're like any other male I saw in Paris…' Serena was feeling the other men's eyes on her and was totally disgusted by what she had done back then… 'I'm a whore… It's just as if I'm one… just that I never fucked them …' and while she was trying to think clear… drowsiness fell upon her and she fell asleep…
*~*~*~*
The next day…
Serena woke up and still felt dizzy from the events of last night… she loved Darien so much… 'so much that it hurts me like hell' However, she did not want to suffer… and seeing Matthew would only remind her of her child… but not having Darien reminds her of him as well…
She decided to seek advice and called up Molly
-"Hello, Molly speaking"
-"Molly, it's me…"
-"Rena? Is anything wrong?"
-"Well, I don't really know… I love Darien… but…" Serena was not sobbing
-"Rena, do you want me to come over?"
-"I'd really appreciate"
-"Give me about half an hour, okay?"
-"Fine"
*~*~*~*
A little later …
-"… But you love Darien"
-"I do.. but I'm not sure I could cope with my unborn baby, Matthew, Katarina…"
-"He loves you"
-"But he got married to someone else…"
-"Rena… I could say the same thing…"
-"What do you mean?"
-"Serena, you were dating Seya… I know he was … is … really attached to you … but now… I'm with him"
-"What are you tried to get at Molly?"
-"We all make mistakes Serena … and … we need to have many experiences or choices in order to make the right decision…"
Flashback…
-"You'll never know when it happens love is a strange feeling" had said Ilene
-"But Is there a written path to love Mummy" had asked Serena
-"No dear… there is no such think. Each of you will have to make your own path to find love"
-"I will never fall in love… girls are such a nuisance… just look at Serena"
And then fights used to start again
End of flashback…
-"You're probably right Molly… its just so hard to accept…"
-"Rena… after all… when you had no news of Darien, you dated Seya…"
-"Do you think he will still want me in his life now?"
-"Of course… he loves you… probably always had… you should go and see him Rena… if you want, I can drop you in front of his office… and go and fetch my son"
-"Okay Molly… just give me a minute"
*~*~*~*
In front of Shield's Corporation Ltd …
-"Thanks so much Molly…"
-"No problem Serena… I have to go now"
-"Bye…"
Serena was standing outside for a long time and then decided to go inside the office premises…
-"May I help you M'am?" asked the receptionist
-"I am here to see Mr Shield" Serena answered
-"Do you have an appointment?" she asked
-"No but…"
-"… I'm sorry but Mr Shield has asked me not to disturb him unless it is really important" the receptionist answered arrogantly
'Well, well… she does not seem to like me much… I guess Darien finds it amusing in having his employees falling for him'
-"Could you tell him Mrs Tsukino is here with an offer for a big contract" Serena told her
-"Oh I'm sorry" the receptionist told "You're only here on business"
'What kind of receptionist is she?!?'
-"Mr Shields I have a Mrs Tsukino with a contract order" said the receptionist
-"What the hell?" Darien answered
-"Do you want me to send her out ?"
-"No tell her to come up Theresa"
Theresa looked at Serena for a second before giving her the details of how to go to Darien's office
Serena managed her way and knocked at Darien's door and entered…
-"Serena what are you doing here?"
-"Darien, I don't know what to say…"
-"You told Theresa about a contract… I see you can come up with stories easily"
-"No I haven't lied at all…"
-"Oh… so then, it's for business you're here… I was hoping… well…"
-"Darien… I came here to deal with a life offer" Serena told him tried to hide a smile
-"What… are you nuts… where are you working?!? Do you want to kill me or something???"
-"Well… not quite… I was thinking of some other arrangement actually" Serena was now grinning
-"I don't get it … I'll need you to make things a little simpler"
-"Darien… I was told that many paths lead to love and that we need to follow different ones to find the right one"
-"Are are you trying to get at Serena?" Darien asked her, a little unsure
-"I love you Darien, I always had and probably always will…"
-"Sere…. please don't tell me that you've come here to break me again …"
-"Darien, I'd be honoured to become your wife"
End
Okay, okay… I could have finished with their marriage or something or with Serena ending up having kids and becoming a grandmother… Anyways, don't forget… it may be hard… but there is always someone special you'd be looking for… and, as a friend of mine told me once "if you love someone, you must be willing to let him/her go… and if you're meant to be together… he/she will come back to you"
