I’d like to believe Beckett’s words. Neally do. Who would want to have these boulders pressing on their chest be knowing the girl your husband was supposed to marry is just right around the corner?

He hid this fact from me, and now I’m left with no other choice but to deal with this

I stare into Beckett’s eyes, debating my choices. I can either pretend that I am fine with everything and lie to mys some sense into this man and tell him that I am not just some dog he can command to sit at his will. I am human feelings, and I am his wife!

I sighed, leaned back a little, and met his gaze. “I can’t deal with this right now.”

‘No. I can’t be around you right now. I need time to think.” I had always put his welfare first before mine; now, I an choosing myself over him. This is not just a simple matter of meeting his ex. Sophie is his wife–to–be before me!

my chest was from my anger and not the weather.

The grass was soft against my shoes, and I was careful not to step in anything that could trip me over. Beckett wo reason to get close to me if the happens.

“But I did,” I sighed, and as a gust of wind swept by, I felt my chest growing lighter. “She sounds amazing, you know. A made her sound so perfect.”

“She’s a child, Andi,” Beckett exhaled.

“But children don’t lie.”
