Isabella pov

"I.. Isabella?!"She slowly turns around staring at me in shock.

"Yes, that's me"She looks back at Ariel and her eyes widen.

"Is she yours?"I nod my head pulling Ariel close to me.

"I see you didn't die, it's a good prank you pulled"I say harshly,her face suddenly falls and she looks down at her feet.

I run my shaky hand through Ariel's hair looking at her, trying my best to seem okay in front of her.

"Baby,why don't you go play with some of the kids here, I'll be right there"She nods and runs of,I grab my dress lifting it from the ground then walking towards the balcony,she follows behind me still looking down at her feet.

I walk outside breathing in the fresh air trying to calm my nerves.

"Isabella let me just explai-"I cut her off.

"What is wrong with you? Where the hell were you?"I ask shaking in anger.

"You have to forgive me, I didn't mean to leave you"I shake my head in disappointment.

"Sure you didn't, yes of course don't worry it's alright, I forgive you, let's go party and celebrate your rise from the dead"I say sarcastically.

"There are things you don't know, please let me explain"She grabs my hand but I yank it away .

"Don't even,you left me with that monster without hesitation,you didn't even think of how it would affect me!"I yell at her and she shakes her head,tears building up in her eyes.

"Do you know what happened when you left?Your husband moved on in less than a year,your husband started hitting me every day and all the time he did that he knew you were alive! He married another woman so I'm assuming you two also got divorced behind my back"Her eyes widen.

"H...He hit you?"She covers her mouth in shock, I nod my head forcing a smile.

She's faking it,I know she is.

"Not the worst part,your husband and his friends tried to rape me...Mom THEY TRIED TO RAPE ME AND IF MY HUSBAND AND HIS FRIEND WEREN'T THERE I WOULD PROBABLY BE DEAD"She gasps,tears streaming down her face.

"Then two days ago,I was almost raped again,sexually assaulted and you know what job your daughter does? Something you didn't have in plan for me"She stares at me confused and then she realises.

"....N...No"She stutters, I lean on the fence smirking at her.

"Oh yes,your daughter sold the studio you loved so much, your daughter got married a long time ago behind your back, thanks to you, good job mom, you've done an amazing job"I clap my hands giving her a nasty glare.

"You should be proud of yourself,good job".

"I'm doing everything you told me not to, EVERYTHING".

"Y...You didn't....Y..you wouldn't"She repeats five times in a row shaking her head abruptly, I cross my arms watching her fall on her knees.

"Don't cry now, it's too late for that, and to think I was blaming myself for your death,fake death"I laugh coldly.

"I was so stupid"I say and she bursts into even louder sobs.
