“I'lad you came back today I really needed the help,” Tracey tells me

I' I don't feel right In fact, I feel kind of faint as I grip the countertop for support

Tracey turns around as she finishes wiping a table and notices ht?” she asks with concern She has always been very caring and ht now

I have to adnant,” I say, coveringfaint”

“Oh,her purse

I lean on her for support as alk to the drug store across the street My boss leads us down the aisles until we find the pregnancy tests She buys one for o back across the road to the coffee shop Once we are inside, she flips the sign to closed

“Go ahead No one is here,” she says

I take the test and go into the bathroom I kind of already know, but I need to be sure I take the test Afterward, I sit nervously on the floor, waiting for the results My sto sickness or anxiety This is probably theat the tie

Ti the knot inI look at the test because I know I can't put it off any longer The results are positive, just like I expected I sit back down I feel like I' to faint

What the hell a his baby, nor can I go back to him I try and take some deep breaths to calht now

Throwing the packaging froet up and pace What I really need to do is get home I'm so damn tired fro that has happened I just want to rest and tune everything out for a while I' to do about this baby, and I wanted to be well-rested when I do that

Chapter 15 - Ben

I wanted today to be a good day I was hoping it would be when I was onas Isabel is around, nothing good can happen Cece was the only good thing in my life, aside from Katie, and now that is ruined All thanks to Isabel

I honestly don't know if things can get any worse than they are right now I'et rid of her Apparently, she was dumped by her tennis coach and is now back to stay This is all I need

I pick up ain No calls, no texts It remains silent Cece hasn't answered or returned any of my calls I dropped by her place when I was out earlier She didn't answer her door either, so I don't kno else to get ahold of her It's like she doesn't want to be found, although, after recent events, I can't really blame her Still, I would like the chance to try and explain to ht between us

I need to get ahold of her I need to talk and explain everything to her, but I haven't had a moment's peace with Isabel here Katie was thrilled to see her mommy when she woke up fro on and off, saying that she oing to go insane I tried going into my office, but Isabel followed ot how frustrating that is She's bitchy, and she's clingy I don't even remember why I married her

Now I' back and forth I try calling Cece again, but still no answer I hang up and clench the phone tightly in frustration I think Isabel is so, but she wasn't paying attention That's what led to Katie crying aboutCece

I can't believe things are happening this way Everything was so perfect a few days ago I wish I could go back to that ti, all thanks to Cece Now, all that has gone to hell because Isabel showed up
