The Single Mom's Second Chance Chapter 25
Daniel:It’s the second day of our family holiday and I am loving every second of it. I’m so grateful that Alice had this idea. I can’t remember the last time I had a break, and I can already feel the weight being lifted off my shoulders.I’ve asked Alice if I can borrow Joshua for a few hours. I’d like to spend some one-on-one time with him, so he gets the chance to know me better. I think out of all the children he’s struggled the most with the mess his dad has caused. I want him to know that I’m not trying to step into his dad’s shoes or replace him but I’m here for him anytime he needs me.Yesterday Joshua showed an interest in the bikes you can hire so we walk over to the hire shop to get one. As we step inside Joshua notices a wall covered in fishing gear that can also be hired.“Wow, I’ve always wanted to go fishing”“Alright mate, we’ll do that after our bike ride”“Yes! Thank you”.We hire a tandem bike but instead of sitting one in front of the other we’re side by side. We h

I wake up after a blissful night’s sleep and see the room is covered in dappled light where the sun is shining through the trees. I’m the first one awake so I quietly get up and make myself a coffee. Penelope walks over for a fuss, so I give her a big squish and then take her outside. Although it’s still early morning, the sun is warm, and I enjoy the hot coffee as I settle down on a garden chair. Penelope is sniffing around near the woodland, and I notice a deer standing dead still in the overgrowth. I’ve never been this close to a wild deer before. It's so majestic. I quietly call Penelope over before she catches the deer’s scent and as she trots over to me the deer quickly darts away.I hear little voices coming from inside the caravan, so we head back in and see Daniel with boxes and boxes of mini variety cereals trying to get all the children the one they want, it looks like chaos as they’re all arguing over who’s having what.“Guys, we’ve got loads, don’t panic, you’ll all get w

After Daniel opened up about his past, I now understand just how much Hailey affects him.“Why don’t we all go on a family holiday”, I suggest. “We could stay in a caravan somewhere close to a beach, where they have children’s entertainment, and we can relax”.“Do you know what, that sounds perfect”.We look online and find a cute little place near Great Yarmouth called Wild Ducklings. We can all fit in a deluxe caravan, and they even allow dogs. They have availability for the following weekend, which gives us plenty of time to pack and get everything organised.The children are super excited to be going away as one big family.The drive to Great Yarmouth was much louder than when we went to Cornwall but nowhere near as long and everyone seemed to enjoy the journey.We pull up to a wooden sign overhead saying ‘Welcome to Wild Ducklings’. The road leading to the reception is lined with logs and we’re surrounded by woodlands. It looks like the perfect place to relax for a week. We get o

I don’t know what Daniel has been through with Hailey but seeing him so angry and stressed with her sudden arrival is starting to upset me, so God only knows how he must be feeling right now. After we settle the children into bed, we snuggle up on the sofa and I decide to see if he will open up and talk about it because I think he is about ready to burst.“Daniel, are you ok? You seem really stressed and anxious right now. I know it’s none of my business but if you want to talk about what happened between you and Hailey, I’m here for you, no judgement. Bottling things up can really mess with your mental health.”A silence falls between us which is a first as we are always laughing and joking around with each other. I can see his face going red, tears welling up in his eyes and I’m starting to wonder if I did the right thing in asking. The silence is broken when Daniel takes a deep breath and says,“Are you sure you want me to tell you? This I’m sure is going to upset you and I don’t w

Daniel:Alice calls me over to the front door. To my shock and disgust I see Hailey standing in the doorway. I never thought I’d have to see her again. I’m full of hatred for this woman because of how she treated me and for leaving Izzy without a mum. Seeing her there now makes me feel sick, I don’t want this woman anywhere near Alice or the children, she’s pure toxicity.“I’ll leave you to it” says Alice as she walks back into the living room, shooting me a look of concern.“What do you want?”“Nice to see you too! I’d like to see our daughter thank you very much”,“Hailey, you left, you don’t get to walk back into Izzy’s life whenever it suits you”,“She’s MY daughter, I can do what I like. I’ve moved just across the road. I knocked on your door, but your old landlord was there and said you’d moved here. Nice of you to let me know you’d moved on!”“I don’t need to tell you anything, we haven’t seen you in years’”,“Yes, well she’s still my daughter and my other children are now enro

I wake up the next day nestled into Daniels arms. I watch his chest rise and fall as he’s breathing, still fast asleep. This is the best sleep I’ve had in months. I feel calm and content. The police have finally caught Dylan and I’m back where I belong, lying in bed with Daniel.I finally feel like we can move on from all the drama and negativity and I can see a light at the end of the tunnel. Last night Daniel and I spent hours talking about where we want our relationship to go, we feel like we have so much time to make up for and this time there’s nothing and no one standing in our way.We’re going to tell the children that we’re together when they get back from their holiday with Grandma and if that goes well, we desperately want to move in together. As my house is bigger than Daniel’s we would live here to start with, but because this house holds a lot of bad memories, we are going to look at moving as soon as possible. I can see us making a lot of new happy memories here though a

Waking up the next morning, I feel rough, my head is pounding, and my face feels wet, actually, my whole body feels wet. I open my eyes, and I’m covered in damp tent. I hear the lads outside giggling.“Liana are you awake?”“mmmm”“Those dickhead boys have pulled all the pegs out of our tent!” Liana attempts to sit up, but we’re lost inside the wet material. We struggle around trying to find the zip to get out of the tent and the laughter from outside gets louder.“You wait till we’re out of here” shouts Liana “I’m going to hunt you down!”I feel like hiding in my sleeping bag for the rest of the day. I’m tempted to message Daniel to see how he’s doing. I just want to know that he’s ok, it’s driving me crazy not speaking to him.Liana see’s me staring at my phone,“what’s up chick?”“I just want to know that he’s ok. My heart didn’t hurt like this when I found out about Dylan’s affair. I feel like mine and Daniels paths crossed for a reason”,“So, tell him why you had to break up with

It’s been months and Dylan is still on the run. It has been an extremely trying time. I’ve tried to pull myself together for the sake of the children and have started working again, however I am a nervous wreck. Any time I hear noises outside my house, I panic, thinking it could be Dylan. I’ve been driving the children to and from school every day so there’s no risk of us bumping into him on the journey. When I pull up at home, I run from the car to the house and triple check everything is locked. The police are still searching for him, but they’ve had no sites whatsoever.My mum has stepped up and visited often, I hate seeing the worry in her eyes.“You need to get away darling” she had said the last time she visited, “let me take the children away for a while in the summer hols, and you get yourself a well-deserved break”.She’s aware of the reason why I had to break up with Daniel and see’s how much it still hurts. I’ve managed to avoid him most days on the school runs, he keeps hi

Thankfully Daniel’s neighbours had noticed the flames quickly and called the fire fighters before the fire caused any damage internally, so he and Izzy still have a home to go back to. I’m disgusted at Dylans behaviour, he could have killed an innocent man and child. Stupidly I didn’t screenshot his messages, so I have no proof it was him to offer to the police. I don’t know what’s going on in his head, but I know what I must do. I need to break up with Daniel.I’m devastated, but it’s the only way to keep him and Izzy safe. I can’t tell Daniel about Dylans threats as I know he’ll never accept that breaking up is the right thing to do.I tell Daniel I need to drive the children to school the next morning as I have an appointment with their headteacher and asked if we could meet afterwards. I informed the head of Dylan’s actions, and the school is aware that under no circumstances is Dylan allowed to collect the children, and if he is seen they are to call the police immediately. I als

Chapter one
1 / 13 Where do we go from here? Chapter oneThere I was, twenty-nine years old, three beautiful children and divorced. Who would want me now?I had always dreamt of being a mum and a wife, one of those 1940’s wives you would see in the movies. I loved my family life, looking after my three babies, helping them with homework, cooking and cleaning while the children were at school and having a nice hot meal ready on the table for when my husband got home. Everything seemed perfect, that was until I stumbled across emails, I clearly was not meant to find….’Work is so fun with you Dylan; I can’t believe you threw water on my top and made it go see-through’.’I liked what I saw, and I really like you Stacey, we should meet up more often’.‘What about your wife?’‘I’ll tell her I’m going to see my friends; you make me feel so different, I want to be with you’.There it was in black and white, and my world came tum...
