I had to leave. There was nothing sane about the whole situation. My baby was gone before it even had a chance to experience anything in this world. Cindy had tried to kill me because she saw me as a threat to her relationship with Killian. But Killian and I had no real relationship, and I didn't think it would ever go anywhere.
I needed some time to myself. This was something I should have done when Justin died. I should have just left. But I didn't, and my life became a living hell.
My mother was stunned to see me when she opened the front door of our house. I was standing there casually with my suitcase. I slid past her to enter the house while she was still dealing with the shock of my unexpected presence. Yes, I was no longer meant to live
