Living without a dad

Chapter 1: Memories flying back

I currently live in London, England with my 3 year old daughter alone in a 2 bed apartment. I have no family living near me as they all live in America. I have a few friends and a job that allows me to pay for what we need. My daughter, Alyssa, goes to a nursery close by whilst I work at the photograph shop I own and manage. You're probably wondering why I have no family and Alyssa has no dad. Well it all started when I lived back in rosewood 4 years ago...

I used to live with my fiancé, Ezra, above the brew which he owned and we were very close until the day I was going to tell him I was pregnant with our first child. About an hour before I was going to tell him, he got a message on his phone and Ezra was in the shower so I looked to see who it was, only to find he had been having an affair with me

"What's this?" I ask with an angry tone in voice showing him the message

"um... um... I um..."

"well?" My voice was raising at this point

"I'm sorry Aria" Ezra said with tears forming in his eyes

"Sorry? Is that all you can say?" At this point I ran to our wardrobe, packed a bag and ran off. I didn't know where to go so I just got in my car and drove out of rosewood and stayed at a motel for the night. 

The next day I went back to our apartment when Ezra wasn't there and packed all of my things and left a note on his desk so he would see it when he walked through the door. It read...

Dear Ezra,

I have left rosewood with all my things. Don't bother trying to find me you will be there for years. No one knows where I am and I never want to see you again. I've packed all my things except one thing, a photo of us on my nightstand. That means nothing to me anymore and never will. If you ever see me again, I will probably have someone else with me again, that may be girl or boy but they mean absolutely nothing to you. I hope your life is perfect with nicole and btw I left my engagement ring next to this note for nicole to have. 

Aria xx

I don't know  if Ezra has even bothered to try and look for me and to be honest I don't give a fuck if he has or hasn't. 

I moved to London 3 days after our argument and have lived here ever since. I was thinking of going back to Rosewood during summer as Alyssa gets 5 weeks off school in August. No one knows where I am or about my daughter so they will be shocked but Alyssa is great at meeting new people so hopefully that will help. I don't know whether it is a good or bad idea to visit my friends and family in rosewood during the summer but I'm going to take the risk. I've missed everyone except Ezra, of course, but it will seem weird seeing everyone again because it has been 4 years since I last saw all of  them. I have to hope that Ezra has moved out of Rosewood but I'm not positive he has. If I'm being honest, I'm not positive about much these days.
