She Didn't Have Time

Chapter 1

My marriage isn't going great. Nick and I have a daughter named Leah who's two years old.

Since I've given birth to Leah, Nick has been acting strange. He's not the romantic guy I met several years ago who gave up his dream job to be with me. The love between us faded when I found out he was sleeping with other women. A few nights ago he came home late and unsurprisingly drunk. He made cry Leah for hours. When he met my mom she told me my life would be better without him. But I couldn't just leave the man I'm in love with.

"Good morning Demi," Nick said coldly.

"Good morning honey." Demi replied kissing Nick's cheek. She got out of the bed and started to walk over to Leah's crib.

"Why do we have that baby anyways ?" Nick asked an angry tone in his voice.

"We made love on our honeymoon because we wanted to have a baby." Demi replied as she started rocking Leah.

"I don't remember that." Nick said still feeling angry.

"What's your problem ?" Demi asked rudely as she let Leah play in her playpen that was next to her crib.

"EVERYTHING." Nick yelled.

"Don't yell Nick please you know how sensitive Leah she gets scared when you yell." Demi replied as she sat down on the bed and touched Nick's shoulder.

"Leaving my job is the most stupid decision I ever made." Nick said as he quickly let go of Demi and searched for his suitcase.

"What are you doing honey ?" Demi asked with a confused look on her face.

"I'm leaving." Nick replied.

"Nick please don't. If you want to go back to your job, go ahead. I'll stay home and take care of Leah while you go to work." Demi said with a serious look on her face.

"Too late I can't Demi, I decided to quit and I can't go back." Nick replied as he yanked his clothes out of his closest and forcefully slammed his suitcase and started walking down the stairs angrily.

"Nick please don't leave. " Demi said as she tried to get him to stay and followed him outside with the baby in her arms.

"LET GO !" Nick yelled as he threw his suitcase in the back seat.

"Nick. PLEASE. PLEASE STAY !" Demi replied trying not to cry.

"Goodbye Demi, you're better off without me. I'm not what you need." Nick said as he drove off in the bright sunlight without looking back.

(Demi's pov)

I walked back inside the house. It felt like my heart was torn out of my chest. I slipped the gold wedding ring off my finger and threw it in the garbage without thinking twice.

A stranger has more compassion than that man could ever have. At least a stranger wouldn't leave someone with a two year old.

I walked into the kitchen and I opened up a bottle of baby food that was in the cabinet. I started feeding Leah.

I don't need him. I can survive without him. I don't think taking care of a baby is that hard.

I would call Marissa or Selena but my inner gut is saying the more they don't know, the better.

Leah refused to go to sleep. I tried rocking her to sleep, singing a lullaby. Nothing worked. She had her pink bunny rabbit. Then I noticed that she was missing her favorite pink blanket she always slept with.

I searched the whole house until I remembered it was still in the dryer. She threw up on it so I had to wash it. I returned to the crib blanket in hand. Leah was still crying so I rocked her back and forth. I began to sing a song called "World Of Chances". I always sang it to her to get her to sleep.I put her down in her crib. I tucked her in with the pink blanket and I kissed my baby's girl head.

Soon enough I fell asleep, exhausted from the very stressful day I had endured. I just hoped that tomorrow would be a good day.
