The white cage

Chapter 34 : My birthday

26 April,

Melania woke up alone in bed, she wished Donald stayed with her, she missed him so much, and she was feeling really bad, for avoiding him in the last couple of days, but she couldn't look at his eyes, after what happened

She wondered how she's gonna live with it, she wished she could just forget about it... But she can't, and to make things worse, Peter is always smiling his ridiculous smile, which drives her crazy...

There was a knock on her door, she took her robe and put it on

Melania : Come in...

Amalia : Hey princeska

Melania smiled at her : Good morning mama

Amalia : Vse najboljše moja hči ( Happy birthday my daughter )

Melania : Thank you mama

Amalia sat next to her daughter, and wrapped her arms around her

Amalia : So how are you doing ?

Melania : I'm fine, and you ? How is dad ?

Amalia : We are good, umm I need to talk to you about something

Melania : What is it ?

Amalia : Honey, we think we umm... Your father and I are thinking about getting back to Slovenia...

Melania couldn't believe what her mother was saying, she didn't see this coming... They seemed happy here

Amalia : Princeska say something...

Melania : Why mama ? Did anyone upset you ?! Hey, do you guys need anything ? I'll fix it mama, just tell me what's wrong !

Amalia smiled sadly : Honey we are over 70 years... We are not getting any younger-

Melania : Come on Mama ! My husband is in his 70s too !

Amalia watched as her daughter broke down into tears, she knew that she wouldn't take it well... Unlike Denis and Iness, they both understood and accepted their wish...

Amalia tried to wipe her daughter's tears : Honey... Don't cry please... You'll be fine, we'll talk every day on the phone, and we'll come to visit you !

Melania : No, you can't just leave... Why now ? After all this years ?! And I... What about me ? 

Amalia : Honey you'll be okay, you're a strong woman look at what you-

Melania trying to compose herself : I know mama, I'm strong but you can't leave me and Barron, please...

Amalia : Honey... I don't know

Melania was desperately trying to change her mind : No you can't leave... You can't go there, come on mama, Iness and Denis are here, I'm here... You'll be alone there, mama please... I need you with me here

Amalia was finding it really hard to resist to Melania's pleading eyes, and a part of her wanted to stay with her daughters...

Amalia : okay honey...I'm gonna talk with your dad... It seems like you always get what you want, don't you young lady ?

Melania smiled : It's my birthday mama, can't you spoil me a little ?

Amalia : I can't believe that my little girl is 48 ! By the way, How did you fix things with Donald ?

Melania's smile faded instantly : Well he didn't cheat on me, it was just a diner with Ivanka and Pence and their spouses...

Amalia : Ohh thank God ! But why are you sad ?
