Chapter 31

Hanna

I woke up the next morning feeling sick. I didn’t think it was morning sickness because everything I’d read online told me that wasn’t supposed to kick in for another week. Yesterday had been absolutely insane, and Kason was supposed to have found out differently than that. I couldn’t believe Marcus had actually raised his fists to him and my dad wouldn’t even talk to me after the encounter. I thought, on some level, my father would be happy. At least Kason was a family friend and not some stranger.

But the look on Kason’s face…

I ran to the bathroom and started heaving into the toilet. Yesterday’s events slowly started to dawn on me, and all I did was feel sicker. Kason hadn’t believed me when I’d told him I hadn’t done it on purpose, and that had killed a part of me I knew I was never going to get back. Marcus wanted nothing to do with me and my father couldn’t even look in my direction. My mother wouldn’t shut up about baby stuff, and I knew she was grating on everyone’s nerves. Kason didn’t answer any of my calls or text messages, in which I pleaded with him to meet me somewhere.

Anywhere.

I had to get out of this house, and I had to do it soon.

I had honestly thought I was going to be much more excited about all of this. After all, this had been the deal in the beginning: get pregnant with the world’s most perfect man, then cast him aside so I could live my life. I knew my mother would be happy about me being pregnant, but I’d never stopped to think about how to field my father and my brother. I had just assumed they would be on board if it wasn’t Kason, which was why I’d thrown the idea out the door when Kason and I had agreed to keep using protection.

I was such a naïve little idiot.

I’d gotten what I’d wanted all along, and now it just felt like I was lonelier and more lost than before. I wasn’t sure of anything anymore, and all I could do was sit by the toilet in my bathroom and sob.

I finally found the energy to clean myself up and change my clothes. I took a long shower and tried to clear my mind. After I dried myself and got dressed, I went downstairs. Marcus was nowhere to be found, and my mother was out with the car. I found my father sitting on the porch with a cup of coffee that was getting cold. He was just staring off in the distance with a scowl on his face. I knew I’d made him angry, but I was hoping he would talk to me.

I needed someone to talk to me.

“Hey, Daddy,” I said. He stayed silent and didn’t even turn his head toward me, so I took the liberty of sitting down beside him. He kept his eyes trained on the horizon while the sun slowly rose in the sky.
