Lily's POV
" So dad, you know the Dawson's?" I ask.
"I knew his mother and father." He replays.
Jason just stands the for a minuet, then he looks a me.
"Im really sorry Lily, I have to go." He said with sorrow in his eyes. I nod my head an walk To the door.
"You must invite your parents for dinner tonight, how about 7?." My mother asks.
"I'm sure they would love to." Jason says with that perfect smile.
Me and Jason say our goodbyes and I walk back into the house. I hear my mum and dad talking.
"Why did you invite the Dawson's here? " my father asks.
"Because I am trying to make up for the mistake i made years ago."she replies looking down at her hands
"What mistake?" I ask. My mum and dad look at me. .
"Honey, I'll tell you later." My father says not looking at me.
"NO, YOU WILL TELL ME NOW! I HAVE HAD ENOUGH OF THE LIES AND SECRETS"I shout. My father looks at my mother the nods his head. My mother clears throat and begins to tell the story.
"I had just left collage and I was dating John, that Jason's dad by the way. So anyway, I was in love with him, I loved him so much, but my parents didn't approve because he was poor." She wiped a tear from her eye, then continued.
"We met up I secret, every week.We would just sit and chat about things that had happened. One day my mum and dad told me to come home early and that they had a surprise for me. So I went home and saw a young handsome man sitting in a chair. It was your father. I broke up with john because i had met your father. After me and your father had been dating for about 3 months he proposed to me. I said yes and everybody was happy Until the week before the wedding."she looks at me for a moment before continuing.
"I reserved a letter from John telling me not to get married to your father, but I didn't listen. It was the eve of our wedding and John decided to show up. Me told me he still loved me and to be honest, apart of me loved him. He was my first love after all. I told him to stay away from me and to never to speak to me again. He listened and didn't return. A couple of years later I received a wedding invitation. My collage friend Lily was getting married to John. I went to the wedding and me and John became friends again. Everyone was happy until one night I got a phone call saying that him and lily was in a car crash.I rushed to the hospital and that wasn't easy because I was 5 months pregnant with you and Cory.When I got there I saw him sitting with Lily. She was badly hurt in the accident and she was also pregnant. They rushed her into surgery because they thought there was something wrong with the baby. They were in there for hours and when they finally came out they had bad news. They managed to save the baby boy but not lily. I did the only thing I could think of. Run away. I haven't seen John in years and I know he got remarried but I have felt bad for so long because of what I did, I really want the chance to say sorry to him in person." My mother finishes her story.
"Is that why you named me Lily ?" I ask my mum.
she nods her head.I just sit there for a little while trying to get it all in my head. I stand up and give my mum a hug and whispered
"It is the right thing to do".
I tell my parent that I'm going to get ready for dinner and walk into my room. I quickly get ready, then flop on to my bed. Before I know it my eyes are starting to shut and i'm in a deep sleep.....
