Chapter 0146
Rowan
Today we were having our monthly get together. The Woods and the Sharps have made
this a tradition since I was about five years old.
Our families have always been close. Mainly because our mother’s have been best of
friends since they
were little girls.
It made logical sense that their children would end up being best friends too and that both
families would
be close.
“Dad, why are you driving so slow? You’re going to make us miss grandpa’s barbecue
stake” Noah complains, his brows pulled together in irritation.
If it wasn’t for Noah, I wouldn’t even have gone. I used to love them. Especially when I
knew that Aval wasn’t going to be around. When I knew that she wasn’t invited.
I used to think it was the only place I could escape her. That being in a room where
everyone except Noah. hated her guts was the best place to be.
Now though, it doesn’t F***ing feel like that anymore. Instead I hate myself and the rest
for the pain we
have put her through.

I’m going as fast as I can“I answer him.
“No, you’re not. You’re driving slower than a ninety year old grandma!” He huffs in
annoyance.
Did I just get fried by an eight year old boy? I shake my head and chuckle before
increasing the speed just
a little bit.
The moment silence reigns in the car, my mind immediately goes to Ava.
She looked F***ing radiant when she opened the door for me.
To me she looked like a damn fertility goddess in a white flowing dress, long curled thick
hair, her small baby bump and her beautiful flawless skin.
I was shocked by my reaction when I wanted nothing more than to take her in my arms
and lock
purselves in her bedroom for hours.
reaction to her is something that has never happened before and it took me by surprise.
haven’t been able to think about anything or anyone except for her. She’s stuck on my
mind and nothing I
It F***ing scares me how obsessed I am with her. It’s not once or twice that I found myself
wondering what she’s up to. Whether she’s eaten or not. Or whether she’s getting enough
sleep. I keep wondering if i should hire someone to help her around the house.
Those thoughts shake me to my core. I’ve never been one to take on more when it comes
to Ava. Now, the need to take care of her is almost consuming and it’s wrecking havoc
inside me.
“Dad?” Noah calls.
“What?”
“We are here”
I had not realized that we were already parked outside my parent’s house. I don’t know
how we F***ing got here. I was so lost in my mind that I had been driving mindlessly.
I know how F***ing dangerous that is. Especially when I have Noah in the car with me, but
I just can’t help myself. Thoughts of Ava keep consuming me.
“Come on, I’m sure your grandpa has saved some stake
atmosphere away. 2
for you” I say just so I can push the awkward
“Are you okay dad?” He asks instead of getting out of the car.

I didn’t like that I was worrying him. I also couldn’t tell him my
beautiful mother.
“Yes. I just have a lot on my mind, but it’s nothing to worry about”
Problem was in the form of his
He nods his head and unbuckles his seatbelt. We get out at the same time.

“Ma!” Noah shouts before running to her.
I’ve missed you my Noah”
She bends down and catches him as his b*dy collides with hers.
It has always been obvious that Kate and James love Noah despite what happened with
Ava.
Everyone loves Noah, we just didn’t love Ava because of the sin we thought she had
committed against me and Emma
re’s your mom? I sent her an invite” She asks, straightening and looking behind us.
“Oh, she’s not coming,” Noah informs her. “She went to visit grandma Nora and grandpa
Theo. She was excited. We didn’t get to see them last week because they were on a
business trip”
Noah doesn’t seem to notice, but I do.
I see the moment Kate’s face falls. The moment pain flashes in her eyes. This has to be
painful for her knowing that Ava was building a relationship with her biological parents and
that no matter what she tries, she will never have a close relationship with Ava.
She had burned her bridges. Hurt Ava too much for her to forgive and accept her. Ava
wanted nothing to
do with the Sharps or the Woods.
