Alfie pov
I don't want Niomi part of our day. Every time I look at Niomi all the bad memories come back. Niomi comes round most days. I'm just sick of looking at her.

I came downstairs and Zoe was playing with Sophia which was so cute. I picked up Sophia and said how's my little princess. I tickled under her chin and Sophia let out a little giggle. I gave Zoe a quick peck on the lips. What's your plans for today? I ask Zoe. Niomi is coming around in a bit. Zoe said. I do a fake smile. Great. I say. Are you ok? Zoe asks concerned. Yeah I'm just thinking about a meeting I have later. I say. Ok so you want some lunch im making some for Niomi and I. Zoe asks. No I will get something after the meeting. I say.

Niomi came in a hour later. I grabbed my keys and said I was going to my meeting.
But the truth was there was no meeting I'm just sick of Niomi. I go to Poppy's house.

When I arrive at Poppy's I sit on the sofa and sigh. Are you ok? Poppy asks. No I'm not I hate Niom she keeps interfering in my life. I say.  Alfie talk nto Zoe about it. Poppy said. I can't Zoe trusts her and she's happy I can't ruin that. I say. But Alfie your lying to Zoe and you and Zoe never lie. Poppy says. I know I just can't be in the same place as her and now she is part of the wedding. I say. Niomi might have changed you don't know Alfie. Poppy says. I know she hasn't she is the exact same as she was and I know she is up to something I just have to figure out what it is.
