~{PETER'S POV}~
*
"....have you thought of having children with this gentleman?"
I unintentionally tensed but refused to look down at her because I feared what she may say.
At the same time, I felt she would say something I wouldn't want to hear and it had me clench my jaw in nervousness.
When she didn't answer, I glanced at her and found her looking like she had been struck by realization and that was all the answer I needed.
My eyes dulled and I smiled in pain as I looked back at our counselor, Apostle John.
He shifted his attention to me with a neutral expression but from the way he looked at me, I knew he was somewhat consoling me and that hurt.
What had I been expecting?
That she would happily want children with me and live happily with me?
Did I seriously think she would want that after she had clearly told me her motive?
