I turn white as those ugly words fall from Regan's mouth. My eyes rake over him in disbelief.
When he rushed in here, I was thinking that he was here to see how beautiful I looked.
Dressed in my new diamonds, courtesy mum and dad. And my beautiful hair held in a low bun. I had no idea he was here to break this sort of ridiculous news to me.
I release a humorless chuckle and step back. Tears sting the back of my eyes as I watch him in disbelief.
"You know, you've always been a joker." I palm my face, shakily.
I search his eyes, looking for any proof of a tease in his expression. But I know better. I know that Regan isn't joking. His tight features reveal that much.
Frantically, I rush to him.
"Regan please…Please don't do this to me. I will be crushed if you do this. Where will I hide my face?" I hold his hand, desperately. He pulls them away, holding my shoulders.
