Raffael

She went into the room and I followed behind her. Aurora was lying on the bed while the doctor was examining her.

“What’s wrong with her?” She asked.

“At the the mother?” The doctor asked.

“Yes.”

“Luckily, it’s nothing too serious. Just a slight headache and fever. She should be better by tomorrow.” The doctor said. “She should be awake in a couple of hours. I’ll come back to check on her.” He left the room.

She rushed to her side and sat down on the chair beside the bed. I stood at the side and watched her. She buried her head in sheets close to her.

She stayed in that position for a few seconds then I heard sobbing. I went to her and saw that she was crying.

“Hey, what’s wrong?” I asked.

“I’m a bad mum.” She said.

“Why do you think that?” I asked.

“I didn’t even notice my daughter was sick before I left the house. What kind of mother am I? I also lost her, twice while I

Go back inside.” I said.“Then why are you yelling?”“Camilla, I think we should tell her now.” My grandpa said.“I don’t think it’s the right time. I’m not in the right state for this.”“Camilla.” I left and went into the bathroom. Everything Raffael said was true. Was I a bad mother for keeping her away from him?I didn’t know when I started crying. I was selfish. I wish I hadn’t run into him that day at the office. I wished had just stayed out of our lives.I thought about it and realized I was being selfish again. I didn’t want him in my life but what about Rory? She needed her dad in her life. Why was I depriving her of the one thing I didn’t have growing up? A dad.“Camilla, can I come in?” Skye asked knocking on the bathroom door.I didn’t reply but she came in anyway.“Oh, Camilla.” She said and wrapped her

It was exciting hearing the word daddy come out of her mouth even though I had heard it a million times from Jason.“Really? That’s nice.” Camilla said.“It’s in the car. I’ll go get it.” I said and stood up.“I’ll come with you.” Aurora said.“No, Rory. Let him go by himself.” Camilla said.She sat back down with a sad expression on her face. It’s like Camilla didn’t think she would be safe with me alone.“Wait for me. I’ll be back in two minutes.” I said and went out the door.I got to the car and I brought out the doll house from the back seat. I was contemplating bringing it with me and I decided to just put it in the car.I went back up and rang the doorbell and Camilla came and opened the door for me and I went inside.“Here you go.” I sai

The drive there wasn’t quiet as Rory and Raffael were chattering, Rory, doing most of the talking. After 10 minutes, we arrived at her school and we escorted her to her class. Raffael said his goodbyes and went to wait in the car while I went in to talk to her teacher. “Ms. Ruth, can I speak with you?” I said when I approached her. “Yes. Is there a problem?” She asked seeing as my demeanor wasn’t good. “There is.” I said. “My daughter came home the other day and complained that some of the girls in her class have been teasing her about not having a dad.” “I’m sorry about, Ms. Brown.” She said. “So I was thinking maybe you should talk to the girls and maybe their parents. They should also apologize to Rory.” “I most definitely will do that. I will talk to the girls and make sure they apologize. I’m sorry about it, it’ll never happen again. I’ll make sure of that.” “

She'll talk to the girls and their parents and make them apologize.” She said putting on her seatbelt.“Ok. Do I need to drive you to the office?” I asked and started the car.“No, you can just drop me off at the house. I go to the office by myself.” She replied. I knew she would say that.

It's not her fault you decided to whore around and not know the father of your child.” The other woman said.“Excuse me.” I was taken completely aback by what she said.“You heard me right. I have to
