"Tell me, tell me why did you all do me like this? Why is everybody so mean---so meaaan to me." She was having a mental breakdown and by the time, Ryker could find a spot to park the car safely, Kathleen had already messed it up.
"I wanna see how you all will feel if I die," having no reaction of sympathy from others made Kathleen desperate. It was sad that whenever she tried to pick herself up and move on, one thing or other pushed her back to the ground.
"Kathleen! We will talk about it okay? Just please let me drive." Ryker was having a hard time in keeping the concentration on such a busy road as he was concerned Kathleen might end up hurting herself.
She didn't listen to him and took the belt off, her mind has entirely blocked the thought of her being pregnant. Depression and anxiety won since nobody helped her feel better.
As she attempted to hit the steering wheel again, the car hit a bump and Kathleen collided with the dashboard but not very hard
"Congratulations, Kath!" Ryker said in his melodic voice with a smile of happiness covering his lips. As he got closer to her, she couldn't help but open her eyes wide enough to express the shock she had received.After stopping close by, he bent over her and gently gave her a peck on her forehead, making her close her eyes and letting the tears fall down freely."You did it for me?" Ryker stepped ahead to drag a chair and sit by the bed, slouching down to stare at her face with no
Once Kathleen was discharged from the hospital, she was welcomed with a decorated home. Things were finally looking good for Kathleen; her only stress was about her brother.Her mother did call her and apologized for not being able to come and see the baby, but that was it.Kathleen was also a little busier with Juan but thankfully, Ryker was a good help.
"You wanted revenge? Revenge for what? There was no crime committed," The moment Lewis announced the news to her, Kathleen felt her feet going numb."He tried to kill you," She stated as she recalled the texts she had seen in his cellphone, the diary she had read in his stuff."Look at you, accusing your husband in front of me so that you can make a way back in this family. If you really wanted to help me, you'd go for the cops, not for a marriage." Lewis didn't want to believe in
Things weren’t the same after that day. Ryker who had been super nice to her after the birth of their son had changed completely. He wouldn’t speak to her or care for her, his focus was back on the brand and shows.“Can we talk?” Kathleen had gathered enough strength to speak to him after three days of ignoring the subject. She stood in the doorway of his room, her dull eyes watching him work on the laptop.“I don’t have a free time to waste on a useless conversation with you. I’ve some important things to deal with.” Ryker didn’t even raise his face to look at her. His ignorance after raising her hopes so high was something too painful to deal with."Ryker, I just want a few minutes of your life." Kathleen felt humiliated to be begging for a few minutes of someone's life with who she had a baby."So that you can ruin the entirety of my life?" He slammed the laptop's head shut and glared at her w
"Are you doubting me? You think I lied about Cain keeping me captive and trying to force himself on me?" Kathleen was now holding back her tears as she had to be in her full senses in order to defend herself."So, he didn't drop you home?" He parted his lips to aggressively let out a sigh, showcasing his anger and frustration towards her lies.She took a pause to comprehend whether to deny again or tell the truth because the lie wasn't going to do her any good at this point,
Ryker had left the apartment after he had poured his heart out to her.Kathleen had been crying ever since that happened. She felt responsible for all that had happened to their relationship. She blamed their inability to communicate and thought that them always keeping secrets from each other was the major cause of their relationship’s failure."I was the reason behind the destruction of our relationship," She cried, sitting on the floor with Juan's crib.
Roy saw Jamie getting in the car with Paul and leaving right before his eyes and he couldn't even do anything to stop her. He had his bags in his hands and nowhere to go. In this moment of helpless and loneliness, he badly needed her support. He had always supported others but nobody was by his side now. He had asked his friend for a place but now that Jamie wasn't with him, he couldn't go and be the only male with 4 female roommates, the room his friend has found for him. "I nee
After a few hours of lying down in the bed after being rejected by Ryker, Kathleen couldn’t fall asleep. She gave up on the idea of trying of going to bed when Juan woke up and started crying. At least she had someone with her, someone who she could call hers. “Oh, hey!” she reached him and picked him up in her arms very gently, “Are you deciding to pull an all-nighter?” Kathleen smiled very weakly at her baby while rocking him up. The baby was probably bored in the room, Kathleen took Juan and his teddy to the living room and settled on the couch. She had been busy watching Juan play when Ryker came out of his room, wearing a tux and looking all fresh. She quickly understood he was headed out to celebrate his birthday but didn’t know where he was going. Kathleen saw Ryker getting ready for his birthday, wearing his best suit and doing his perfect hair. He looked charming like always, she watched him perfecting his looks before he stepped closer to the couch
