HAILEY

Taking in a deep breath, I sat down next to him and tried to keep a little distance between us. But, trying keep space with someone, while also trying to show them something on your laptop is like an impossib

task.

It was taking a lot of control not to push him off the couch.

He was sitting too close.

His arm brushed mine, and for a second, it reminded me of the nights when he used to cuddle up again

me and watch movies. The only moment when he could be soft with me.

But, this was different.

This was a man who was a complete stranger. Someone I didn’t know, and whose intentions and motive

were unclear.

“When did you find out?”

“That I was pregnant? Few days before our third anniversary. I planned to tell you on that day. I already h

Next to me, on the hospital bed, was a baby. Wrapped in a blue blanket, with a small hat on his head, the newborn was sleeping, and his little face was pressed against his mother’s arm.

It was the most precious thing in the world, and there was no mistaking the love in my eyes.

I could remember the day like it was yesterday, and the joy I felt when I saw him, and held him in my arms

was the most amazing feeling.

There was no way in the world that I could describe it.

Dominic leaned forward and his fingers grazed the baby’s face. His touch was soft, and his gaze was fixe

on the picture.

“He’s beautiful. So tiny. You looked exhausted. Not just from the labor, but from life itself. Looked like having him was the only good thing that had happened in your life.”

“Yeah, it was. I was struggling real hard. Had to get hustle between being pregnant, working two jobs and attending college. I went into labor during my final exams and I thought my life had ended and I wouldn’t be able to achieve the dreams that I worked so hard for. But, I did it. The examiners were kind enough to

Willing myself to not get emotional, I cleared my throat. “Well that’s enough about me. What’s more important is what I have on him.”

Dominic didn’t react, but the expression on his face remained unchanged. I closed the file and opened another folder, and Dominic moved closer to me.

I kept talking, and didn’t realize how much I was telling him, until it we got to the final photos in the album which was his sixth birthday photos of last week.

I could have stopped there, but looking at the pictures, a part of me was reluctant to close the laptop.

For the first time, I shared with him what I couldn’t six years ago.

The things he should have known.

And the realization hit me hard, because, the moment I started talking about my son, all the anger and the

hatred disappeared, and it was replaced by the overwhelming feeling of love, and the happiness and joy

that I had for him.

My son was the love of my life, and the only person who had a part of my heart.

Looking at the pictures, and the smile on his face, a small smile appeared on mine, and the bitterness in

my voice disappeared.

For the first time in my life, I was happy.

It was the happiest I had ever felt. I was proud, knowing that I was raising the perfect little human, and I

was doing the best that I could.

He was a gift.

A blessing, and the light of my life.

And for the first time, the darkness inside of me went away and a light shined, illuminating my path
