Anne's P.O.V
I know I have not been myself these past few days and I know that I have taken it out on Liam and I know that I shouldn't have and still shouldn't, but this weird feeling is making me act out these past couple of days. It all started on Monday with me not being able to handle the smell and taste of salmon. I love salmon and would literally eat it for every meal if I could.
This morning I woke up feeling nauseous and my favourite clothes did not fit me like they used to.
Damn no, not again. I knew what was wrong with me. I made a doctor's appointment for myself. I called Liam and told him about this but left out the part of me thinking I was pregnant and that I was going to the doctor. I didn't want to make him all excited and happy and then that wasn't the case as it could also be my cancer that is back, even though the marker tests and exams ha
Liam's P.O.VI was so worried about Anne but I knew I had to attend all the meetings I had left on the schedule for today and then right after that I could leave and go see what is wrong with my wife if she is at home yet. My last meeting ended an hour before closing time and I packed up and left to go home. As I was leaving, I told my PA that I was heading out to a meeting and that I wouldn't be back to the office this afternoon again. If Juliet finds out that there wasn't a meeting, then I'm screwed, but I don't give a damn at that moment. She will hopefully understand today's reason.Anne's P.O.VThe irony when you think you know what is wrong with you and you are starting to get excited about what you thought and then it isn't what you thought it was. My cancer is back. Since I never stopped the medication they gave me as well as the follow-up sessions and they just don
Five and a half years laterAlexia's P.O.V (Anne's Daughter) "Hi, I'm Alexia and I'm six years old."Mummy and daddy have told me that they have placed me in a school nearby. They said it would be fun with a lot of friends my age and toys to play with and a nice lady that is going to look after me and teach me some nice things and help me get smart like mummy and daddy. I don't want to go. I haven't been away from either mummy, daddy or grandma my whole life and I'm honestly scared that I won't be able to make any friends and that everyone will laugh at me because of that.Mummy and daddy said that they would be there to pick me up this afternoon afterwards and if it was really that bad they would take me to go for ice-cream. I love ice-cream, especially the green and brown flavour that has the little brown drops in it. Mummy always says it's little drops of poop, but I kno
Anne's P.O.VWith Liam going out with the guys, I had to go and get Alexia from my mums and I decided that I would have her decide where she wanted to go and eat out tonight, since I just wanted to put my feet up and forget about work for the evening. Have a little girly fun with my number one girl in my life."Mother, where are you? Mum?"She is always here somewhere in the house, especially when she has Alexia over, otherwise she would have let me know she was taking her out. Maybe she's in bed or in the gym. Yes, this house has its own gym. The bedroom is empty, the gym is empty.... splash... What was that? It sounded a lot like the pool, so she must be in the pool.When I arrived at the pool area, mom and some weird man I didn't know were kissing. Not your usual kiss, hey. I think I even had a little blush going on. Omg my mom has a boyfriend! I cleared my throat and they both froze."Hey, hone
Eight months laterAlexia's P.O.VI had had a bad nightmare so I went and climbed into bed with my mummy and daddy. I knew I wasn't supposed to bother mummy because she hasn't been sleeping well these last couple of weeks because my little brother was kicking her when she was trying to sleep. Mummy put my hand on her belly once and then he kicked me too. I giggled because it had tickled me. Not wanting to bother mummy, I stayed as close as I could to daddy.I woke up feeling wet and when I touched my pyjamas they were full of water. Maybe Darren had kicked mummy so hard that she had wet the bed. I started shaking daddy to get him awake to check if mummy was okay because she was making funny faces and she looked hurt."Go to sleep, Alexia. Please don't bother your mum.""But dad, mum is in pain and she wet the bed."Right after I said that, dad shot up from the bed and ran ov
Two years laterAnne's P.O.VAn excited eight-year-old walking the halls in a beautiful pink blush dress practicing her flower throwing skills is what woke me up this morning. My little girl is so excited because she gets to be the flower girl at her grandmother's wedding today. She has been walking the halls of the house practicing the best way to throw the flowers and to make sure that she has the right technique according to her, for the last five weeks, we had been planning the wedding. She really had the cutest way of asking her to be her flower girl. Mum asked me to be her maid of honour since her friends are all judging her for being happy with another man who isn't my dad, Donald. It took her such a long time to get where she is today to even be ready to move on from him and they are at the moment only making it worse. Mum couldn't stay mad at them. She even sent out wedding invites to them but forgot the pe
Two weeks laterAnne's P.O.VI had decided that maybe it would be nice to have Elizabeth and them here to see her two grandchildren and so I invited them and made sure that they had everything they needed to attend.Alexia's party is today and Elizabeth, Ernie and Arnold are coming too. Me and Liam explained everything to Lexi and she understood. When they had arrived, Elizabeth and her family looked so out of place and almost scared to say anything, so I walked over to them and started a conversation."Hi, thank you for coming!"I even threw in a few hugs all around to make them feel more welcome."No problem, thank you for the invitation."Just then Alexia came running to me."Mommy, look here what granny bought me for my birthday!"She made Elizabeth feel more bad or out numbered because she couldn't afford anything in the price range."That's nice, did you thank her properly?""Yes, of course, mom."She turned towards Elizabeth and looked confused."Hi, who are you?"Before I coul
Ten years laterAnne's P.O.VTime really flies when you are having fun. That is what we have been doing for the past ten years. Alexia is at the legal age and still my happy little girl. She and her brother Darren get along fine. I have heard that kids with an age difference between them fight like cats and dogs, but these two are playing nice. Might begin changing now with Darren reaching his teen years and Alexia exiting them. Who knows, we will have to wait and see what happens.Alexia is turning eighteen today. Her gift from me is a brand spanking new car, she had been dropping hints about it all the while we have been teaching her how to drive. Liam, on the other hand, is planning his but won't tell me what it is. As if I can't keep a secret from our little girl.Anyways, her car was delivered late last night with a bow and everything and her keys I wrapped in wrapping
Luke's P.O.V (Alexia's Boyfriend) I get the feeling that she doesn't want me to meet her parents. Why I don't know, but after trying for the last six months she finally agreed to let me meet them. I knew about the dinner because my dad was going and I knew about the formal attire as that, is all that dad could talk about. His invite to be at a Jones-Watson family party. I arrived home and told my mom and dad I would be joining them tonight. They looked shocked to say the least, they always had to force me to go or drag me with them, but here I am telling them that I was going on my own free will. I would freak out too.My parents know about me and Lexi and she has met them so many times when she has come over or in passing. Making it no problem for me to have a perfect gift for her ready on time for the party and her birthday. It is a beautiful diamond necklace that I had designed from scratch and one of its k
