Chapter 20
River's POV
"River!!!!"
I turned around as slowly as I possibly could in fear of who I thought it was, which is my mother. There was no way she was out of jail yet it was just too early. This can not be happening.
I began to breathe harder as my palms were releasing sweat faster than lighting but I could not give up like this I had to be strong for my baby and for Ethan.
I turned completely and my Mom was standing there with a look of disappointment in her eyes.
"How did this happen?How did you pregnant by a married man? What are you stupid?."She asked giving me a look of hatred as my eyes were roaming I caught Diana from a distance rushing out and I knew it was her that was up to no good. She was always up to no good. I knew it was her who gave me the poison but I could not tell Ethan that it would ruin his trust with Diana. I could not be the reason for that. "Mom let me explain."I said trying to catch her hands in my embrace but she backed away and began walking the other direction."Aiden had cancer."I yelled and in a matter of seconds, shivers went down my spine from saying that deadly word as my Mom stopped.
"What?"
"He..he a...he had um a brain tumor and if I did not do something quick he would have-"I began trying to breathe as tears were running down my face," and you Mom you were in jail you would have gotten out after many years later.I was supposed to be the surrogate mother but things did not work out trust me if I had another option I would have taken it."
"I do not know what to say all I know is I am very disappointed in you but I will be here for you because giving up a child is not easy River you wonder how they are doing almost every second of your life-"She said and I quickly cut her off from the words she was saying she must have given a child up and who told her I wanted to give up my child.
"I am not giving up my child I can't,"I said motioning my hand in the air," and what do you mean by giving up a child is not easy?" I asked, with surprise and her eyes widened.
"I was just saying."She said walking towards the house. I knew my Mom when she is hiding something she usually ignores me but I was not going to allow her to ignore it.
"Mom, "I yelled getting a hold of her hand gently but she could not look me in the eye and that made me sure she was hiding something from me.
"You have an older sister but she um....um has a different father. I got pregnant with her in my last year of high school and um we were not married. His name was Landon we were from different socio classes so our parents separated us after your sisters birth. His mom proved that I was an unfit mother so I could never see her."She said and I could feel the despair in her words as she was speaking. "Do you know where she is now or he is?"
"I have no idea what happened to her father but I found out when I was in the jail because she came to visit me."She says with her eyes swelling up from all the tears she has been giving out "Your sister is Diana, River."
Shocked, would be an understatement of how I really felt.
Something about what she said made me want to throw up the dinner I just consumed and for some odd reason, I couldn't look her in the eye.
Did this mean I had to forgive her for all the harm she's caused me and my child or should I go about my life as if theres no common relation between us?
I mean she does it but does that make it right?
