  &quot;Tristan,&quot; I whispered to his distressed form.
  &quot;P-please tell me that was a lie.&quot;
  I didn't say anything because I couldn't lie to him. He was supposed to find out, just not like this.
  He turned back and faced me with teary eyes. My face gave away the fact that no, it wasn't a lie. His face contorted in pain.
  He grabbed my shoulders and shook me. &quot;No, please tell me it's all a lie. You-you're playing a prank on me, right? It's not funny. Stop it.&quot;
  &quot;I'm sorry you had to find it like this.&quot; I said quietly.
  He let go of me. &quot;No.&quot;
  He strode forward and walked past me into the room. I followed him.
  Olivia looked shocked and scared. &quot;Tristan.&quot;
  He looked like he wanted to yell but once he was close enough to her, his eyes dropped down to her flat stomach.
  &quot;I'm sorry.&quot; It pained me to see Olivia so broken,

  &quot;What is it? I want to go home,&quot; he finally said impatiently.
  &quot;I wanted to apologize for causing all of this. She started keeping her distance from you because I told her to. I caused you two a lot of pain and heartbreak and I'm truly and deeply sorry for it.&quot;
  &quot;It's not your fault. But what did Olivia mean when she said that you were at fault for the abortion? I didn't understand how.&quot;
  &quot;She was scared of how I'll react if I got to know about the baby. Like I said, she avoided you because of me and she still went against me and got pregnant. I didn't know that my words would affect her so much that she'd choose to abort the baby. But I didn't even know that she was pregnant before today. You know that too.&quot;
  He nodded. &quot;I don't think it's your fault.&quot;
  &quot;Me too. My only fault was that I kept you two apart. I'm sorry.&quot;
  

  &quot;You must've been so scared. The doctor mentioned about some complications-&quot;
  &quot;Oh, scared I was. But not for me. I was scared about what I was about to do at that time. I was going to kill someone. Someone that did nothing wrong and was only the product of my stupidity.&quot;
  I shook my head. &quot;Please don't blame yourself. You did what you thought was right.&quot;
  &quot;I didn't think it was right. If I had even a slightest idea that you and Tristan wouldn't object to the baby or criticize me for it, I wouldn't have done it.&quot; I could feel her regret rolling off of her in waved.
  &quot;You've got to know that I would never criticize you for something like this. I don't know about Tristan but I would never.&quot;
  She looked at me with sad eyes. She didn't say anything so I asked because I had so many questions.
  &quot;Why did you trust Heather with this? 

&quot;Tristan,&quot; I whispered to his distressed form.
  &quot;P-please tell me that was a lie.&quot;
  I didn't say anything because I couldn't lie to him. He was supposed to find out, just not like this.
  He turned back and faced me with teary eyes. My face gave away the fact that no, it wasn't a lie. His face contorted in pain.
  He grabbed my shoulders and shook me. &quot;No, please tell me it's all a lie. You-you're playing a prank on me, right? It's not funny. Stop it.&quot;
  &quot;I'm sorry you had to find it like this.&quot; I said quietly.
  He let go of me. &quot;No.&quot;
  He strode forward and walked past me into the room. I followed him.
  Olivia looked shocked and scared. &quot;Tristan.&quot;
  He looked like he wanted to yell but once he was close enough to her, his eyes dropped down to her flat stomach.
  &quot;I'm sorry.&quot; It pained me to see Olivia so broken, she barely managed to get the words out.
  &quot;Why did you do it? Just give me a reason
