She hates me. My own daughter hates me because of a decision I made. If only I had stayed then she wouldn't have said all those words.

"Mommy Aislinn I want to go home" Ezlynn said.

"I know baby we will go home after grand pa is fine okay" I said and she nodded.

Ezlynn is the daughter of my friend Adley who passed away in a car accident when Ezlynn was four and I had to adopt her. Her father is no where to be found and I don't really care about that since she has me in her life.

"Alessia doesn't like me" Ezlynn said.

"No honey she does she is only angry at me. Don't worry she will be your friend" I said pecking her forehead.

"Come on let's go meet Grandpa" I said getting up and she followed. I glared at Mariah on my way to Dad's room and she did nothing but smirk at me.

"Daddy" I called and Dad looked at me with a wide smile.

"My princess. I missed you so much" he said and I went over to hug him.

"Is that my little princess Ezlynn?" He asked.

"Hi Grandpa Kaiser" Ezlynn said coming over to hug Dad.

"I missed you two so much" Dad said and I smiled.

"How long will you be staying?" Dad asked.

"Until you are better" I said and he smiled widely.

"Why don't you stay. Alessia isn't the same without you" he said.

"She hates me Dad. She hates me. She thinks I left because I didn't love her anymore" I said and Dad looked at me sadly.

"It's okay dear everything will be okay" he said hugging me.

"Go and take your rest. It must have been a really long flight" Dad said and I nodded.

"Mommy I want to go to the park and I want to visit Grandma" Ezlynn said.

" Go ahead it's been long since you visited your mother's grave. I'll be fine don't worry about me" Dad said and I nodded.

"Wait, where are you staying?" Dad asked.

"In one of Mom's house. Dad you have to understand why I can't stay here but I promise to always visit you" I said and he nodded.

"Dad can I take one of your cars?" I asked.

"Of course baby it's also yours" he said and I smiled.

"Let's go Ezzy" I said and we walked out of the house.

We first went to the cemetery to visit Mom. It's been three years since I last came here. I really wish she was alive. She was my best friend and now she's gone.

"I miss my mom" Ezlynn said.

"Me too but then you know she's in heaven looking after you right?" I asked and she nodded putting the flower on mom's grave.

Lenaya Marie Santiago

From:15-2-1982 To:18-5-2009

A loving mother and wife.

I just miss Mom so much.

"Mommy let's go to the park" Ezlynn said and I nodded. We got into the car and got some McDonald's before heading to the park. Ezlynn sat by me instead of playing with the other kids her age but I forced her to play and she had a lot of fun.

"Aislinn" I heard a voice I didn't want to hear for the rest of my life.

"Aislinn please listen to me let me explain" Darius said.

"Explain what? Why my own daughter hates me? Or why my own husband cheated on me with my step sister before we got married and after we got married?" I asked.

"Please Aislinn let me explain. It's not what you thought it was. Please forgive me. I swear I never meant for that to happen. Please Aislinn. It was only a one-time thing but before I knew it it became an occasional thing. I really didn't mean to hurt you but then I was in love with Mariah. I was going to tell you about it. I'm really sorry Aislinn" Darius said and I held everything in not to slap him.

"Wow. So you think everything will be perfect after this? You are one amazing person Darius. Thanks a lot for the explanation. Thanks for letting me know you never loved me. Thank you so much Darius. Thanks so much for the wonderful explanation of why you cheated on me" I said and he tried touching me but I slapped his hand away.

"Don't touch me" I said.

"Please Aislinn forgive me. I didn't mean for that to happen. I swear" Darius said.

"Sure. Go away I don't want to see you ever again" I said.

"Please Aislinn forgive me. I swear I'll fix everything. I'm really sorry please. Aislinn. I love you Aislinn please" I really want to slap him now.

"Don't touch me. I don't love you the only thing I feel for you is hate. I hate you so much Darius. I can't believe I was a fool for not seeing who you truly were. You are an asshole Darius and I regret ever meeting you" I said and he just held unto me.

"Please Aislinn" he said going on his knees.

"Let me go Darius" I said.

"Please. I will tell Alessia the truth about why you left just forgive me" he said.

"I said let me go Darius. Tell Alessia whatever your story is. Because of your cheating and lying ass my own daughter hates me. I really hate you Darius" I said.

"Mommy Aislinn I want water" Ezzy said and I nodded.

"Okay let's go get you a bottle of water" I said snatching my arm from Darius' hold.

"Aislinn please wait" Darius said and I ignored him.

"Mommy why was Alessia's father holding you?" Ezzy asked.

"Nothing. We were only talking" I said.

"Okay mommy" she said and we went to get two bottles of water before she went back to play and after some time we went home.

We had our dinner and I played with Ezzy for a few minutes before tucking her in.

"Mommy Aislinn please sing for me" she said and I.

Oh my darling. Oh my darling.

You'll forever be in my heart

Forever stay close to me

Even in your darkest days.

I'll be right here by your side

And never forget that I love you

Forever and Ever

I sang and after a few minutes she fell asleep. I gave her a peck on her forehead before walking into my bedroom.

I picked up my laptop and decided to do some work but a headline caught my attention.

Oh gosh no.
