Thirty six

Sienna

I stared at the curly haired... man in front of me. He definitely changed, he had a lot of stubble and his hair was a lot longer, he looked rough, tired and generally a mess.

"Where's Annabella?" Was all I could get my mouth to say.

"Sienna, listen to m-"

"Ashton, you have a minute to tell me before I call the cops"

"I don't have her" he said, and his signs of lying were... no where to be seen. He normally would play with his thumb when he lied but he didn't.

I stood there, "Ashton, I swear to god"

"Listen" he whispered while looking around. "Let me in, I have a lot to explain"

I hesitated for a second before stepping back, him pushing his way in and walking to the living room.

"So, explain" I said, sitting on the sofa opposite him.

"I broke out of prison the day I heard Annabella was missing, I came here, I've been trying to find her"

I didn't know wether to believe it or not, but something was telling me to believe him.

I just nodded in the end. "Any ideas?"

He shook his head. "I've missed you" he whispered. "I'm so sorry"

I just scoffed. "Of c-"

"No, listen, I regret everything, I regret everything that I done to them, every thing I done to you. It was so wrong and unethical and I'm disgusting-" he took a deep breath "I miss you guy, I miss hanging out every day, I miss having laughs, I miss you, I'm so generally in love with you still, and I love our daughter. I know that you would never bring her until my mum told me about the restorical justice we were going to have. I feel so shit about everything"

I sat there for a second, taking in his words, looking at the floor. "I'm sorry, Ashton, I-I just don't feel the same, about you, about everything, I don't believe your apology no matter how much you apologise because... because, if you were sorry you wouldn't have done what you done."

I saw him nod.

"I-I should go"

"Yeah, yeah you should"

Ashton stood up, me following him out.

"Wait, Ash?"

"Hm?"

"Where are you staying?"

"A little hotel down in some place called boardwalk, far out so I'm not recognised"

I just nodded and watched him walk out. "Bye Sienna, I love you"

I just nodded, turning and closing the door, my back against it as I slid down it. "Boardwalk"

I pulled my phone from my pocket and called the police straight away.

"Ashton just... he was here"

And that's when everything came flooding back, and I sat there sobbing and I knew that Ashton had lied to me, like he had all those times before, he had my daughter and were going to find her, dead or alive, I couldn't care less at this moment, I just wanted to see her, hold her, tell her I loved her one last time.
