He had been kind enough to rent a separate suite for her and the baby, because after all they were on a date and he was courting her. However, Andrea had given him a key for emergencies and this was one. “Honey! Can I come in? I need you!” she shouted, barely sticking her nose out, and Andrea finished opening the door for them, surprised to see Loan so distressed. “Sure, Thorcito, come in. Is everything okay?” Between the two of them they managed to get Loan to sit down and explain what was going on. “Well… you can always go ask, right?” Zack encouraged him. “Do you have her full name?” “Yes, it’s Danna MacKenzie, she’s one of the best skaters on the Scotland team, but I didn’t see her with them last night,” Loan said. “So yes, it could very well be that she didn’t want to see me, but she’s not on the team either?” she denied insistently. “I don’t know, my instinct tells me otherwise.” Andrea nodded with a sigh. —In that case it’s better to find out. How about you two stay here and I stop by the training rink? —Andrea said. —No… no, I have to go myself—Loan murmured. —Honey, you can do it, but remember that if the matter is delicate, one of her friends won’t talk to you like she would talk to me—Andrea reminded her and Loan finally agreed. Thanks for reading on LeeNovelas.com. Andrea gave the baby her bottle, ate breakfast quickly and immediately headed towards the ice rink where the Scotland skating team was training that morning. When she arrived she found a very special scene: there were several girls skating around the rink, most of them were training alone, doing complicated spins and figures. Andrea approached one of the team members who was sitting on the benches and greeted her kindly. —Hi, I’m Andrea, I’m a friend of Danna MacKenzie and I was hoping to see her at the Championships, but I haven’t been able to locate her, she said. Do you know where I can find her? The girl looked at her nervously but Andrea just kept smiling. “Well, Danna didn’t come this year,” the girl murmured. “Can you tell me why…? Or at least give me her phone number? It’s really very important for me to find her,” Andrea insisted and her worried expression seemed to convince her. Remember.

She shifted several times in her chair but finally gestured for him to sit next to her and began to tell her the little and the much she knew about Danna. Fifteen minutes later Andrea took her cell phone and spoke to Zack. “You better come right away, Loan has to hear this,” she said seriously and Zack didn’t make her repeat it. Andrea waited for them impatiently and as soon as they entered the door she dragged them to one of the rest areas. “Loan, this is Selina,” she introduced them. “Selina, they are my daughter, my boyfriend Zack and his brother Loan.” —S—ure… nice to meet you… What can I help you with? —the girl murmured shyly. —I need you to tell Loan everything you told me —Andrea asked her.The girl shook her head. “Listen, I told you because you’re your friend… but I’m not going to repeat it to the four winds!” she got upset. “You have to tell him, because Loan is the… interested one,” Andrea explained to her and the girl opened her eyes wide. “Is he…?” she asked, pointing at him and observing him carefully. “Yes, I think so, so please tell him.” By that moment, Loan’s heart was already beating at full speed and he was desperate. “Please tell me what happened with Danna,” she begged and Selina nodded, addressing him. “It was last year. Two… two or three months after the last championship,” the girl murmured. “Danna asked for a vacation just when we were going to start a new routine, the coach didn’t want to give it to her and then we heard him talking to Danna’s mother, he told her that she had a lot of talent, but that he wasn’t going to take her back after a year away, that she had to choose between her career and… “So what?” Loan rebuked her. —And the baby —Selina said and he put his hands to his head, stunned. —Baby…? How…? Danna was pregnant? He wanted the earth to swallow him up right there, but not precisely because he hated the idea, but because he didn’t know what had happened to her. —What happened, Selina? You have to tell me! What happened to Danna? —he begged her. —Look… the truth is that we don’t know. Danna’s mother forced her to continue with the practices and assured the coach that she already had a date to solve that —the girl answered nervously. But in one of the practices… well… the coach forced her to do an axel, it’s one of the most difficult jumps… and Danna fell. Loan pressed her lips together while covering her mouth with her hands. —Did she lose…? Did she lose the baby? —she asked desperately. —The truth is that we don’t know. They took her to the hospital because she was bleeding a lot… and Danna never came back. We tried to locate her, but her mother never came back to the rink either. Loan remained silent, sensing what had happened. He didn’t want to think of the worst, but he didn’t feel much hope after hearing that. Still, he had to make sure. “And do you know where she lives now? Do you have any information on her so we can find her?” he asked, hoping that Selina had something for him. “Well… maybe I know something that can help you.” Loan desperately took out his cell phone and asked Selina to write down everything she knew about Danna, her address, phone number, everything. Unfortunately, the only thing Selina knew was that Danna lived in a town half an hour away from her rink in Scotland, she gave her her old phone that wasn’t working anymore and the names of a juice shop she always bought from. Although it wasn’t much information, for Loan it was like having a map in his hands. They said goodbye to the girl, thanking her, and left that rink.“Because Loan is the… interested one,” Andrea explained to her and the girl opened her eyes wide. “Is he…?” she asked, pointing at him and observing him closely. “Yes, I think so, so please tell him.” By that time, Loan’s heart was already beating at full speed and he was desperate. “Please tell me what happened to Danna,” she begged and Selina nodded, addressing him. “It was last year.

Although it wasn’t much information, for Loan it was like having a map in his hands. They said goodbye to the girl, thanking her, and left that rink.”I have to go find her,” he murmured. “I have to know what happened to her. Maybe the baby wasn’t mine, or maybe she lost it, but Danna… I can’t stay without knowing what happened to her. I wouldn’t be at peace for the rest of my life.” Zack and Andrea understood perfectly, so they wished him the best and said goodbye to him an hour later as he left the hotel. “Do you think he’ll find her?” Andrea asked. “Loan is tenacious and he cares a lot about that girl, it doesn’t matter if it’s been a casual thing so far,” Zack replied. “But us Keller boys are family men and if his is out there, I guarantee he’ll find her.” Andrea sighed with concern. “I hope so, because I really feel sorry for that girl,” Andrea murmured. “Besides, she must be very young… what is she? Twenty-three years old?” Zack nodded and put an arm around her shoulders. But he trusted his brother and that he would resolve everything for the best. —Well, now that we’re alone, how about I take my two princesses on a special tour? —he said to Andrea in a flirtatious tone and that romantic trip resumed in an instant. They strolled through the shops and bought gifts for everyone, however there was a very special one that Zack discovered in one of the windows. He entered that store alone and bought the small jewel that was not too expensive but very pretty and meaningful. Those days that followed were memorable for the three of them. Adriana of course would not remember anything, but she was the main figure in each photo. Finally the day of their return arrived and when they settled on the plane Zack put that small velvet box in front of Andrea. She opened it surprised and inside she found the beautiful pendant of a heart with two chains. The pendant could be disassembled into two, a larger heart and a smaller one, one for her and one for Adriana. —I love you — Zack said looking into her eyes while hugging the baby. I love you both with all my heart. I hope that every time you look at them you remember this time we spent together. Andrea held back her tears, because she was really happy, and let Zack put the chains on them. “We love you too,” she replied. “And we love you forever.” Zack kissed her on the lips tenderly… and neither of them imagined how much that love would be tested in the following weeks.This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
