Chapter 0159
This has been one of my biggest worry. I don’t want my child to view me in a negative
way. I could tell them the truth, but that would mean making his or her dad seem like a
F***ing sicko.
Mom stands up and comes to sit next to me. She pulls me into her arms and hugs me
close. I feel my
eyes start to fill with tears.
Damn hormones.
It’s okay baby, don’t worry about it. We still love you and we will love the baby.” Dad adds,
joining us.
We stay in each other’s embrace for a while before separating.
“Another grandbaby. This is so awesome. I better start shopping” mom says excitedly, her
face
transforming with the smile that takes over.

literally jumping up and down like a school girl.
“How many people can brag that they’re grandmas at forty three? I am a young and chick
grandmother and I still energetic enough to run around with my grandkids”

Dad and I laugh in amusement as mom twirls around in my living room like a ballerina.
Standing up, dad pulls her into his arms and k*sses her. He then spins her as mom laughs
in joy.
I smile at them. This is the kind of marriage I’d wanted. The kind of love I’d craved for. I
feel a pang in my heart, but I don’t let it bother me. I’d already let go of those fantasies.
I’d accepted that their kind of love
wasn’t in the cards for me.
After that, they stay a little before they leave. I felt like a burden had been lifted from my
shoulders. My biggest fear had been that they would reject my child. Seeing how in the
end they were excited to have an additional grandchild eased something inside me.
Soon Noah arrives and I get busy helping him with homework and making him snacks. I
like being organized, so I sort his uniform for the next day and everything he would need.
I had just finished when there was a knock on my door. Dragging my feet, I leave Noah’s
room and go to
open the door.
“Ava Sharp?” the delivery man asks.
Damn it. I need to change my last name. The Sharp’s name no longer belonged to me.
Yest
have a delivery for you
I roll my eyes. I don’t get why they always have to say that. I mean, I already can tell
you’re here to deliver
something. It’s obvious.
“I didn’t order anything” I tell him.
“Not my problem”
Rude. Maybe he saw me rolling my eyes at him. Before I can say anything, he shoves the
box into my
hand and walks away.
I watch his back in shock. Memorizing the name of the company he worked for. I didn’t
order anything.
but I sure was going to give them a one star rating and a scathing review.
Taking the box inside the house, I close the door and head to the living room.
“What’s that?” Noah asks, eyeing the package.
1 don’t know”
I debate whether I should open it or not. There is still danger looming around from the
reapers. What if it was a bomb or something?
I don’t get a chance to debate too much on it because Noah jumps up, takes the box and

“Noah!” I shout. My heart in my throat.
If it had been a bomb we would have been blown into pieces. Didn’t he have a sense of
safety?
“You do not open packages that you don’t know anything about!” I snap at him, trying to
calm my erratic beating heart.
He just shrugs his shoulder. “I was curious, so I opened it”
He looks inside and his face turns into distaste. “I thought there would be something cool,
but it’s nothing but a bunch of dresses”
Wait what?
1 take the box from him and check inside. I remove each one of the piece of clothes.
Slowly realizing that each piece is one from the mom and baby shop. They were all the
clothes I had tried and liked. The ones that I’d wanted to buy before shit happened with
Rowan.
How the hell. I stop the thought as realization sinks in. Rowan. The bastard must have
bought them.
nice dresses mommy. You’ll look beautiful in them” Noah says, just as the thought of
buning them crosses my mind.
