Fantasy Becomes Reality

Chapter 126

I was staying at my dads and I told him what happened. As bad as I hated Jen it would be even worse staying with Andy and hating him. My dad got me a lawyer and once I actually physically had the divorce papers in my hand it terrified me. The fact that the person that I fell in love with and had two kids with was the person I hated most in the world. The fact that this all started at a dinner after graduation. What happened in two years was unbelievable and two months ago I wouldnt have traded it for a thing and now I would do anything to take it back. I felt like an idiot and I should have just listened to my dad in the first place. I wish I could go back to the day my mom got in the accident and prevented it in some way. Everything was just weighing down on me all at once and it was horrible.

I texted Andy to meet me at a coffee shop not too far from his house and we would sit down and sign the papers and I could bring them back to my lawyer and as I sat in that shop. Waiting at a table in the corner of the shop it sank in on what was really happening. That everything we've fought for and work on was coming to an end.

I'll never forget the look on his face when he walked into the shop. He went over to me and sat across from me and I felt my heart racing and I was so scared.

"Where are the papers? I have a meeting to go to. I want to be fast with this I'm supposed to be at work." He said and I looked up at him.

"Are you going to give them to me to sign?" He asked annoyed and I pulled them out of my bag and put them down infront of him he took my pen from me and bit the cap off the end of it and held it in his mouth as he signed them and handed them back to me.

"Is that it?" He asked and I nodded.

"I'm not going to try. In court I'm not-I really have nothing to lose. All I ask is for you not to take my kids away from me. I love them with everything in me." He said and he pursed his lips together and got up and walked out the shop and I had tears in my eyes. He signed them with no thought. He walked out with no hesitation and I didn't want him to. I just didn't know. I didn't know why I was suprised. I was ready to let go but at the same time I wasn't and I wasn't sure how to feel at that point. I couldn't believe he let go so fast and I was sitting there on the verge of tears. This was the scariest thing I've ever done in my life and all I did was sign a god damn paper.
