Emma.
“I don’t know what to do, Molly,” I tell her, almost in tears. “They’re so mad at me right
now.”
Mom and Travis have refused to pick up my calls or even talk to me. After the disaster at
the get- together, I haven’t seen them or talked to them.
Travis ignored me, and mom kicked me out of the house the moment the small function
was over. It had been awkward as hell. Absolutely no one talked to me. It was like I didn’t
exist. Was this how Ava felt in
the past? It F***ing stinks.
“I kept telling you to tell them the truth, but you never listened.” Molly’s voice brings me
back to the
present.
She was right. Every time she mentioned that topic, I would shut it down before she even
got a word out. The moment I learned of my pregnancy, she begged me to tell them, but I
refused. She’s been trying for

I the past eight years. It never worked because I never listened to her. Sometimes I would
even get mad. We would argue and then end up not talking for days.
“I know,” I whisper tiredly.
I haven’t been able to sleep. I had so much going on in my head that it was difficult for me
to find peace

“No, you don’t. I don’t think you understand the kind of pain you’ve caused not only your
family but also Gunner and Calvin. A child is a blessing, yet you treated yours like he was
an omen. You hid his existence.
like he was nothing. I still don’t understand why you did that or how you managed to do it
in the first place.
It was easy, honestly. I didn’t want a child in the first place. It was so easy to continue as if
he didn’t exist
and to forget about him because I never wanted him. People give up their babies every
day, so I don’t
know why everyone is all up in my ass because of Gunner.
1 don’t need a lecture, Molly. I need a solution on how to make my family forgive me so we
can forget about everything and move on,” I ground out through clenched teeth.
“Do you even F***ing hear yourself? You don’t want a lecture, but that’s exactly what
you’re getting.” she firen back. I’ve supported you in a lot of things, but you know Gunner
and Cal are the only ones with Whom I never agreed to what you were doing to them.
You’re my friend and I’m going to call you out and any that you’re a nasty bitch for how

Why couldn’t they just F***ing understand? Is it a must that I love Gunner simply because

“Well, guess what? Your precious Rowan has a child with someone else, and from the looks

Ava
va has managed to make me look like the devil to her angel. She’s the caring and loving
mother, while I’m the evil bitch who doesn’t want her own son. She has managed to ruin
my perfect image. Why couldn’t
she just keep her mouth shut?
“I love you, Emma, with all my heart, but I am glad that Ava exposed the truth. It’s time
for you to
grow up
and take responsibility. Gunner needs his mother. You’ve tried running away from this for a

time for you to stop and do what you’re supposed to do. It’s time you acknowledge that
you’re a mother”
