Pregnancy was turning out to be boring.

However, what really got to Evangeline was how her relationship with Walter had gone down the drain. With her emotions already on a roller coaster because of the baby, she felt more down in the dumps than 

ever. 

She needed to vent, and who better to turn to than Alex? Of course, she did not expect him to show up so fast. 

“Evie, are you and Walter seriously done for good?” 

Alex had seen the storm clouds on their marital horizon for ages and had braced himself for their split. However, it was actually happening, and it felt strange to him in many ways. 

“Obviously. What other choice is there?”

If it were that simple, she would have married Alex in the first place instead of going through all the drama with Walter’s reluctance to tie the knot. 

“We backed your split because you guys didn’t have kids. Evie, you’ve got Walter’s baby on the way now, you’re a mom–to–be. You have to think about the big picture.” 

“What ‘big picture? is there any doubt the Fosters can’t provide for a child?” 

Evangeline and Alex had never had a real fight before, but this time, she was genuinely upset. She had called Alex over, hoping for a bit of comfort as she prepared to close the chapter on her first love. 

She had not anticipated it turning into this kind of confrontation.
