Jennifer Jareau's Daughter

Chapter 5

Max's POV:

I'm in the car with Jennifer we just dropped off Sarah and Miles. I put in my headphones making her think I'm listening to music as I watch her dial a phone number. I watch her nervously wait for them to answer. Until I see the contact "Hubby" that's when I freeze. She's married and didn't tell me. My thoughts are interrupted as I hear the man pick up.

"Hey honey you on your way home?" The male asks

"Yeah. Will I need to tell you something." Jennifer says

Will thats her husband's name. I make a mental note to ask why she didn't tell me about him later. I see Jennifer look my way and I quickly turn my head towards the window. Once I see her turn her eyes back towards the road I take out one of my headphones. I look at Jennifer as she continues talking to Will.

"I had a daughter named Max ten years ago. I gave her up she found her way back to me and I know I should have told you about her. But, she's with me right now. I'm getting my parental rights back. I'm sorry Will. I understand if you hate me." Jennifer says

"Babe it's okay. I can't wait to meet her. I wish you would have told me sooner. I understand why you haven't until now. I do have one question what happened with her father?" Will asks

"He was a one night stand once I told him I was pregnant he ran. He didn't want to be involved." Jennifer answers

"Well I'll let Henry know he has a sister coming. I'll go prepared the room for Max. Everything will be okay JJ. I love you." Will says

"I love you too." Jennifer says as she hangs up

Once Jennifer hangs up I put my other headphone back in. I look at my iPod. I put on "Down with the Sickness" by Disturbed. I not only have a step father but a brother. How couldn't she tell me? Was she that ashamed of me? She literally didn't tell her husband until now. Why did she keep Henry but not me? I thought she was too busy with work to have kids. Am I that bad? I can't help as anger starts to rise in me. She never wanted me I realized. I am lost in my thoughts that I didn't even notice the car has stopped. I look up to realize we are back to my hellhole of an orphanage. I get out of the car not even looking at Jennifer as I enter the orphanage I go straight to my room slamming the door leaving Jennifer downstairs with Mrs Kane. I lay in my bed after locking the door grabbing my lighter the one thing to give me release. I roll up my sleeve seeing all my old burns. Before I can do anything my door opens revealing Mrs Kane and a very shocked looking Jennifer. Oh no Jennifer just learned about my deepest secret. The only people who knew before was Sarah and Miles. I can't help but question what is Jennifer gonna do now?
