Title: Chapter 5: Chapter 5 - T.M.I. (Revised)
the battle between Diya and Camille rages on - so freeeekin funny! those scenes are up there with Brandon and Diya. so glad (and proud) that Brandon opened up about the tattoo's past and that he was okay with dealing with Marisol (i'm with jaqua43 - get a dog, some milk and cookies or a vibrator, hahaha! stop calling MY MAN!!) - not happy with Diya though.
first she nags about the tattoo. gets upsets when Brandon doesn't want to talk about it only to get jealous/upset/guilty over a past ex and then pretend that she's sleeping...??!
i get that she was afraid that Brandon would see through her - i guess i wished she had given him a hug or something. instead she seemed a little bratty, lol!
hopefully after a little sleep and breakfast Diya's brain is going to work better and she will come up with a way to handle it...before asking the question - what happened to the baby?
dun dun dunn...!!
thanks for the long update - much appreciated! look forward to next instllment!
Author's Response: Brandon opening up to Diya was definitely a good thing for both of them, even if she didn't know how to handle it. I can see why you're not thrilled with her right now, but I can also see her POV.
Diya had just come off of telling a hard truth and dealing with the consequences, and giving Brandon the trust he asked for, only to be stonewalled when it came to another tattoo with no explanation as to why. Her response, albeit unnecessarily snarky, wasn't to nag him (at least not my version of nagging), but to suggest they not talk about the tattoo or any of the others. She got in her feelings about the lack of reciprocity--him wanting her to trust him with Marisol but being unable to trust her with the truth--and then didn't now how to get out of them.
Sleep might help her to be a little more judicious in her deliver, but there are other things at work that will ensure she'll live in her feelings. More on that next chapter.
Thanks for reading and commenting, Yuukiyanagi!
