The Big Secret

Chapter Eleven

The cover of my book is changed.  Thank you to secutegrxnde for the amazing cover!!  I love it.  No word's can describe how appreciative I am.

Roxanne POV

The sun rose like a flower opening, gifting its petals onto the world. A beautiful morning greets each day with hope.

The thought of Ryan’s child growing up without a father infuriates me, the idea of a fellow lady experiencing a full pregnancy without the father of the child there makes me sad. What happened to her could happen to anyone, including myself.  No women  deserves to be treated like that.
I grew up without a father  figure, I never got the opportunity to even call him by daddy or write a fathers day card for him. I don’t know much about him but I know he made his choice.

I know that with all my flaws and troubles of being a teenager, it can be difficult to raise a child alone. A difficult job to do without a male in a household, however  seeing my mom raise me without any complains shows how brave she is.   To be loved by her is such a blessing. She is a mother and a father, a sister and a brother, a cousin and a friend.  She makes growing up without him unrecognizable.
I don’t have any hatred towards him. I believe that no one should be without a father in their lives. Because of her,  I am much stronger, independent and responsible. 

Reality is that my heart broke when 'Mandy' mentioned her relationship with Ryan. Could I have been such a fool to believe he was back for me.  What really is Ryan back for? Why would he run away from his responsibilities? Who is Mandy and what really is her relationship with Ryan that got to do with me?

My heart will not bleed for an information received with no proof, Mandy could be an imposter. But though, how did she find out about me? What is Ryan up to?

As I bother myself with questions I have no answers too, I take a quick shower, curl my hair and wear blue shorts and a crop top. I decide to go over board by applying a simple natural make up.

“Hi there” a smiliar beautiful voice says closing the door to my room.
Am glad Cassie is here to see me, I need a friend in times like this but I can't  tell her whats going on.
Smiling at her,  she makes her way to me,gently plays with my curly hair as she starts to talk.

“Rox, I have known you my whole life, you are my best friend and I love you. I know there's  something bothering you, infact I can see it. What is it? And the girl I saw you with, who is she?” She requests sounding desperate filled with care and love.

                     Christopher!!

I scream when I realise his the only one that could tell me everything.  He probably knows everything.

“Were you even listening”? she shouts.  I can tell she's getting angry.

“I would like to tell you what is going on, and I will just not tonight. I have to go now, I was on my way out when you entered." the determination of my voice is deep and am sure it scares Cassie so before she stops me or ask me where am going, I quickly grab my handbag and place a kiss on her cheeks.
“see you later”.
"Are you going to Christopher"? 
I close the door to my room before I could get the chance to answer her and take my feet downstairs as fast as I could, grabbing my moms car keys and am out.

Whilst in the car driving to Christoper,I think about the worst that I could hear, am I ready to know what is really going on or are my emotions taking the best of me. My thoughts are stopped when I realise I am at Christopher's  house.  

                        _________________

“Hey beautiful what do I owe this surprise visit”? Christopher  welcomes me in his beautiful home.
As I step in the house I cant help but notice how spacious it is. The living room is charming and all the furniture is vintage with a little bit of elegance. This is a breathe taking home.
Smiling as he leads the way to the living room.  

“Chris, do you  know anything about Ryan's  return? My adrenalin flows. 
“He is ba-ack fo-or you, yes for you" he's voice trembles.
If this was the truth I would have felt it.
“Don't ’t play  dumb here Chris, am serious just tell me the truth, does Ryan have a child”?
I catch him off guard and now the spotlight is his. I look him straight in his eyes so I could tell the situation is getting uncomfortable for him. He stays silent for a while and that makes me even more curious.

I want to know what is going on.  But I would rather hear the truth from Ryan himself.

"Never mind Chris, I don't want to know anymore, thank you for your time".
I didnt give him a chance to respond, because I rushed out of his house in tears.
