"I do now".
"You look different". She lookedup and down. "But I can't put my finger on why".
"I've gained a little weight". I didn't think it was that noticeable and yet it didn't stopfrom finishing off the nachos. "I can't stop eating". "Huh". She gasped. "You're pregnant".
"No, no I'm not and I wish people would stop assuming that I am". I dumped the empty box in the trash and went back to making tea. "So, other people have noticed?".
"We're not here to talk about that". I didn't want to sound rude, but I was done with the pregnancy chat.
"Right".
And now I felt terrible. She is the person I should be talking to about this but instead there was this wedge stopping that from happening.

"I want to know why you said it". I placed a mug next to her before taking a seat. "Just tellthe truth so we can put this to bed and move on. I want my best friend back". "I was jealous".
I made a face. Jealousy had never been a thing between us. We were best friends from preschool, practically grew up as sisters and now she was tellingshe was jealous.
I didn't believe it for a second.
"I was jealous of you, of Jake and your relationship. Everything was going great for you. Luna of the pack, mate of the Alpha. Everyone loves you".
"Mom died, gran left, didn't have a dad growing up. Yeah, because my life is something to be jealous of". "Like I said I would take it back if I could".
"So, you said all those horrible things because you were jealous of me. You put a wedge in our relationship because you were jealous?". I was pissed off at that.
"I'm telling you the truth. You wanted the truth. I grew jealous of how everything seemed to be going for you and it seemed like I was being pushed out of your life because you didn't needanymore". "That's bullshit and you know it".
"You can't say our relationship hasn't changed".
Our relationship hadn't changed, we changed. We were both mated and pretty much settled. But our friendship had changed because we let it.
"You're too important tofor us not to fix this. I want you in my life Lana, I want you at my wedding and I want you to be an auntie to my kids".
"I want that also". She spoke.
"Then can we put this behind us and get on with our lives?".
"I'd like that and again I really am sorry. I haven't been the friend you deserve. You're my sister Leah and I love you".
"I love you too".
"Can we please talk about the elephant in the room now?". She asked.
"Not yet I want to know what happened with your mom".

I couldn't wrap my head around what she was telling me. Her mom was om sick, but she wasn't sick. She made out she was really unwell so that Lana would go hfor a few days.
She tried to make her stay. "She had the flu Leah, she made out she was dying all to getto go home".
"Has she changed?".
She shook her head. "Still drinking and guess what she has another new boyfriend. That was the real reason she wantedto go home. Apparently, he's the one this time". "I'm so sorry Lana". Her mom was never the best, but she was still her mom. She brought her into the world, gave her life but she was never really there for her.
"I should have known but when she toldshe was sick all I could think Ο Π about was how bad our relationship was couldn't have my mom die thinking I hated her". "And now?". I asked. "I'm done for good this time. I cut all ties before I chome. She knows not to contactagain". "You're my family you do know that right?".
"Yes, I do, and I want to keep being your family. I almost ruined our relationship; I wouldn't know what to do if I didn't have you in my life".
"I'd always be in your life Lana. We're sisters and our bond is too strong just for it to be thrown away over a stupid argument".
"So, we're good?". She asked.
