my information. You know where my parents live and therefore I will inform them that one day…you will be back for my number, address, whatever he requires. Delete my number from your phone I don’t wish to hear from you.
“I’m sorry if you think I am being a bastard, but it’s my way of dealing with this mess, if I stay here I will only torture myself further, and I don’t want that for neither one of us. I hope you get everything sorted and Kacey gets better and makes you happy, giving you everything that you missed out with, with our son. I am not saying another word, but walking away. Take care…” he said stern.
He turned around to walk abruptly away from her.
Sophie struggled to see anything with the tears that filled her eyes. She sat down on the bench before her legs gave way. Her heart shattered into pieces, aware she had fucked up big time, annoyed he wouldn’t allow her to say her peace. She could see how angry he was maybe one day, one day, he’d forgive her and she would make sure soon that Sabastian was aware of his father.
She ached in every limb like never before. Her world emptying of the one person who had supported her through her troublesome times, who had listened to her on her darkest days, showed her the compassion and care she craved for over so many years. Yes, she had made mistakes when expecting Sabastian, but she did what she felt had been right at the time. She just wished Calvin knew how much she suffered back in those days, weeks, years, and still today. How the pain killed her, but she couldn’t, no-one understands the hardest decision of her life.
She would confess she had pushed all her problems to the back of her mind, hoping they would be forgotten yet…now she had hurt more people than ever first suspected, Calvin, his parents, her own mum and dad. Now the pain hit her…traumatising. How can she carry on with her life knowing Calvin suffered from her choices? She was exposed, the truth out, she had now to live with it for the rest of her life. She wished Calvin would forgive her in time, but, could he, would he? The thought of never seeing him again destroyed her. He’d been guardian angel, now…gone, walked out of her life.
Crumpled up on the bench while sobbing her heart out lifeless. Her life slipping through her finger, she made one mistake…well several but, having Sabastian adopted had been the worst.
How could she forgive herself?

Tears flooded ran down his cheeks while he sat in his car unable to drive, no-way he could make sense of everything that had happened. He had been through hell the last few weeks, being by her side, helping her, yet she had held the biggest secret for all those years. His son. He wondered if he could carry on with his life and wait for the one day Sabastian would contact him, either way he would be there with arms wide open. He bet there would be no end of questions, how could he blame Sophie? He doesn’t wish to ruin his son’s illusion of his mum that would be far too mean. He would have to tell the truth, tell him he’d had no idea he was alive, breathing or that his mum, Sophie had even been pregnant…
He wiped his eyes in anger, knowing he had to stop these tearful moments and man-up. He couldn’t. Everything he’d discovered broke him. Killed a part of his soul. He’d lived for many years being a man, never allowing anything to get to him, and especially never showed his emotional state and now…frigging Sophie Richards dropped the biggest bombshell on him ever to mankind. What the hell had she been thinking? In fact, he didn’t care the reality had been she’d never told him, nothing had been his fault, other than planting the seed inside her.
He’d spent all these damn long years pondering about her wondering where and what she’d been doing. Never had his thoughts been far from her. Only the stupid woman hid a massive secret. He hoped in the future Sabastian would not blame him, or resent him when they
