My parents drove me home with no explanations of why they had "business". I try to bring up the subject and they completely shut me off of the idea.

Ken had a plane to catch, he was about to cancel it but I insisted him to go. He clearly was busy and who am I to stop his organised schedule.

The car ride was pretty silent, and depressing. I could feel their wrath for Simon.

Once we got to the house, they sat down on the sofa, exhaustedly and put on some t.v while I cross my arms staring at them.

"Well...where's the congratulations?"
I asked.

"What is there to congratulate? I mean it may be your baby but it's also Simon's baby, that ruthless mouth boy." He frustratedly says, then bangs his fist on the table. Mum tries to comfort him.

"But it's still my baby, you can still- you know what? That doesn't matter." I sighed with sorrow.

"I see how the two important people in my life feel about my baby." I dashed up the stairs to my bedroom.

"Hunny wai-" was all I heard from mum before I slammed the door closed.
Next thing i know my heart began to hurt as it beats rapidly, tears began to gradually flow down my face.

Well it's only used two of us against the world right now. Me and you lil Mae or Leonardo.
The phone buzzes, I ignored it for a few minutes then it kept on buzzing continuously.

I sighed and checked my phone, some was from Ken asking if he should cut his trip short. Some were from Bailey, she's coming to see me and Tati too.

I unlocked my phone and scroll through my instagram. There's a photo of Ken in the Philippines standing on the tree.

He seems to be enjoying the pink top I gave him a month ago even though he said he hated it. I like the photo and commented 'thought you hated it? Wasn't your colour?'

And continue scrolling down until I find a photo sean having his arm around Kaycee's shoulders as they smile. They were pretty close.

She was wearing his merch and he was wearing hers. He captioned 'My weirdo...' I gasped and just as I do that, Tati and Bailey bust open the door which hurt my back so I yowled in agony.

I move away from the door, allowing them to come in.

"I'm sorry Soph, I didn't know you were there." Tats apologises then looked puzzled.

"Why are you there exactly? Did something happen?" She bombards me with questions.

"Tati, chill out she's probably still traumatised from the operation she had recently. Right?" Bailey calms her down.

I thought I would say it straight away but with how my parents reacted, and the situation I'm stuck in now is shit so I hesitate.

"Yeah, yeah you're right." I respond.

"Anyway, Gabe and I texted each other on the phone as friends I guess."

"But what happened to not keeping in contact with your ex." I stated.

"Well... I say stupid shit sometimes. I miss him a whole lot, I never knew it would be this difficult to be apart from someone you truly love." Tati replies in a heartfelt way.

"I felt that. You really do love him don't you?"

"Yes i do, but I don't want to be seen as the desperate one. Anyway he's gotta work for me to be in his comforting arms..." She says, daydreaming.

Bailey seemed dead. The feeling that everything is ending, life isn't worth shit.

"Bailey..." She still stared into space.
