Emma The day I’ve been dreading was here. I was afraid of the truth getting out, but never in my wildest dream did I think that Ava would be the one to reveal it. I’ve tried so hard to keep it a secret. It was my shame to bear, and now everyone knew. Rowan knew. Among everyone, he’s the one I didn

I had my pick from a large pool. Soon, I started to forget about Emma. There was no use crying over a girl that didn’
I’d been scared, to say the least. I didn’t know how to be a father. For heaven’s sake, I’d never even been near any babies. It was overwhelming, but I knew I loved the baby already. “She wanted to get an abortion. I couldn’t let that happen, so I threatened her.” I take a deep breath, feeling my t
Ava My brain cells were totally fried. I’ve been sitting here since Calvin left about an hour ago. I asked him if Noah could stay the night at his house today and he agreed. I was still trying to grasp all that I learnt today. It was too much information all at once. I didn’t know how to handle a
