Yesterday I gave birth to a baby girl. She was healthy and weighed 4 pounds 5 ounces. She was the most beautiful girl I had ever seen. She had black hair and brown eyes.
It felt great holding the baby.
I can imagine her still in my arms if I close my eyes.
My daughter was placed on me after she was born. My skin was in contact with hers, and she looked around the room, taking everything in.
I held my daughter for thirty minutes before the nurses took her away from me.
Dex entered the room and placed the cheque on the table. He looked at me. "You're not needed anymore, Ava. I hope you have a wonderful life." He exits the room without looking back at me.
After Dex left, I cried myself to sleep.

The doctors gave me the discharge papers this morning, and I was allowed to leave. On the way out of the hospital, I was escorted out by security, as Dex wouldn't let me see my daughter for the final time.
My daughter is going to grow up without a mother in her life.I don't want her to grow up like that.
Right now, I'm standing on the roof of my apartment building with a bottle of wine in my hand. In my other hand, I am holding an ultrasound photo of my daughter and the cheque for 1 billion dollars.
Putting the bottle to my lips, I take a long swig.
If I jump, nobody would notice.
Climbing onto the ledge of the building, I look over Los Angeles. I can see the skyline of the city from where I'm standing.
The San Fernando Valley is close by, and the Hollywood sign is noticeable from the roof.
Taking another swig of wine, I start to sway.
I need to get off the ledge.
Climbing off the ledge, I put the bottle on the ground and looked at the cheque before pulling it apart. I threw the cheque in the air and watched the pieces fall to the ground like confetti.
I have to get away from here. I need a fresh start.
