Life is sometimes twisted. Two faced and bittersweet. You never know what to expect. And that's the magic of it. You wake up everyday with a new mystery revolving around you. New people on your path. New destinations on your map. Because that's just life.

That was that day in Olivia's life. She had to go against the dangerous people. And for the first time it was feeling weird. A feeling in her stomach made her feel nauseous about her decision. Like that time she was traveling in Boston one week ago.

For the first time she was afraid of her life and for her career. With one move both of them could've been destroyed. In the blink of an eye. That easy it was.

But now she had to take the most important decision in her life. Interpol trusted her and that was the biggest step she could make in her work. But there it was another issue that made her have second thoughts...

"Can I have time to think about my decision?" She asked her boss.

"You have till the end of the week. They need an answer as soon as possible. And Olivia they want you." He told her and she nodded and left his office.

On her way to the toilet she met Alex and he noticed the melancholic cloud above her head.

"Amor you okay?" He asked her softly.
She didn't reply, she just went straight on the restroom and threw up the moment she found an empty one. Alex was behind her.

When she finished she went to wash her face when she acknowledged his presence.

"You don't seem fine Olivia, what's wrong?" He asked her more demanding this time.

She didn't reply and went to clean her face. When she was done she took a deep breath and turned to face him.

"It seems that your condom didn't work..."she said a bit sarcastically.

A happy and shocking smile was painted on his face.

"You're pregnant..!" He stated in a whisper.

But his happiness disappeared when he saw Olivia's blank stare full of desperation.

"What is wrong amor?" He asked once again concerned.

"I'm not ready to be.." she tried to say, but stopped to block her tears.

"I'm not ready to be a mother Alex..." she said and her ears went teary.
He went closer to her and hugged her.

"Baby no one is ready to be a parent. But we all figure it out.." he said in a way to calm her. But that made her turn into her aggressive mode.

"You don't get it. I will never be ready to be a mother with the kind of life I chose. It's dangerous. My job is to be out there catching criminals, not changing diapers!" She yelled at him with tears in her eyes.

"We will talk it out home." He tried to calm her, but in vain.

"What home? Yours? Mine? You see, we don't even live together and you want us to be parents!" She argued.

"If you wanted an 'our' house you could have asked. But you wanted our relationship like this!" He told her with his voice a bit raised.

"And you should've been more careful then, since you knew our kind of relationship! Or you may did it intentionally!" She accused him.

"This is not you talking right now." He said to her while pointing his hand on her face.

"We will talk when you're calm.." he said and left her behind.

"We have nothing to talk about!" She yelled at him and burst into burning tears.

She knew already what was her next step...
