"So you're saying that, you can't remember anything?" Adam says with a confused look
"I know you think I'm crazy but the last thing I remember is falling asleep at Dylan's party" I say running my hands through my hair
"Dylan's party 5 years ago?" Adam says and my stomach completely drops
5 years ago? I'm 25, how the hell did this happen
"Yes, but I remember it like it was yesterday adam I swear to god" I say begging him to believe me
"Okay, okay I believe you because I know you wouldn't make this up" he says sincerely
"Thankyou" I say pulling him into a hug
"What's going on?" I spin my head around and see Dylan standing there
Me and Adam explain everything to Dylan as mike puts Harper down for a nap, it takes some convincing but he finally gives in and believes me
"So what are you going to do" adam asks
"What can I do adam I mean I don't even know why I'm here" I say, my voice straining
"Okay just calm down Elle, we can figure it out" adam says sounding nervous
We all talk for about 5 minutes and mike walks back in the room, with Harper still in his arms
"She refused to go for a nap so I said she could stay up for a little bit" he said smiling
I feel lost for words, I never wanted to be a mother I don't know how this dynamic works
"O-okay that's fine" I say and the worried look grows even deeper on mikes face
Harper sits happily on the couch talking to Adam while mike is in the kitchen again, I walk slowly into the kitchen and look at him washing the dishes.
Maybe I should follow Adams advice and tell him the truth. Maybe he would understand me, as my husband... I repressed a chuckle. Who would have thought that I would have a husband and a kid at the age of twenty-five? Not me, certainly.
"What's up with you" he says softly walking over to me
"We have to tal-" I'm interrupted by Harper running into the kitchen
"Mommy uncle Adam and Dylan are leaving" she says and holds her arms up for me to lift her up
I smile and pick her up, nervously and she snuggles into the crook of my neck
I walk into the living room and give adam and Dylan a hug goodbye and they give me a look as if to say that I should tell mike
They leave and Harper is still lying contently in my arms, I walk into the kitchen but mike isn't there, I hear the shower running so I place Harper in her high chair
"Hungry" she says looking over at me with her big eyes
"I can make you something" I say smiling
I made her some toast with strawberry jam and poured her some milk and placed it down in front of her
"Really?" She says excitedly
"Of course..." I say quite confused
She took a huge bite of her toast, smiling.
She ate in silence looking very happy, I smiled. She was starting to talk quietly to herself . And I started thinking myself, How did this family work? Did I have a job that I liked? Did Mike have one? Who took care of Harper during the weekdays?
If violet could see me now she would have laughed, hard at seeing me being a mother
Violet. I suddenly had a picture of her in my head, where was she why haven't I heard from her, we kept in touch every single day before, what had changed
"M-mommy"
I am snapped out of my thoughts, I look over at Harper, her face was tinted red and her breathing wasn't right
"Harper are you okay?" I say standing up from my chair
"Mo-" she started to say but held her throat and started coughing heavily, then tears fell from her eyes rapidly
I started panicking. What was happening to her? What did I do?
I started screaming mikes name over and over, he came hurtling down the stairs, his hair a mess and he had thrown on the first thing he could see.
"Oh no, no, no" he said panicked taking harpers face in between his hands "Harper what did you eat, Harper?" He says before looking down at the toast she hadn't finished "oh my god, is that strawberry jam" he says instantly picking Harper up from her seat "you gave her strawberry jam! She's allergic to it Elle what the hell is wrong with you!"
He ran to the door with Harper
"I'm taking her to the hospital" he said panicked
"I'll go" I say with tears welling in my eyes
"No" he said angrily and slammed the door behind him
I laid down on the couch, crying. Mike had looked so angry. Harper had been struggling so hard to breath. I was terrible at this.
Whoever put me in here... if anyone is listening, please, let me go back to my old life. I don't want to hurt anyone here.
