Emily pov
It's Sunday night we Jamie Toby and I are on the couch watching Despicable Me for the millionth and one time for some reason I always think about my mom get thing happy memories
Hey, boys, I'm gonna go head up to bed I say giving them each a kiss goodnight
I make it up the stairs to Jamie's and I's room and instantly fall asleep on the cloud-like mattress I have become used to
Momma daddy wake up I can't be late okay okay sweetie we're up come on let your mom get ready...
What is this I think to myself my mom is alive and with Jack
I found myself eating breakfast with my mom Jack and Toby THIS IS INSANE MY MOTHER IS DEAD MY FATHER DOESNT WANT MY BROTHER AND me I but yet here I am and here they all are looking happy loving and alive
So my mom said looking at me how does it feel to be graduating what I thought to myself
Hmmm graduating hmmm good big accomplishment I decide to play along knowing now I am dreaming
Okay let get going said, Jack,
Now I'm at school back in my cap and gown in a line of students that never meant anything to me the principal was now calling my name and I was walking out of nowhere a guy gets up from the crowd
Walking towards the podium I realize it's Jamieson..oh what is really happening right now is this how I subconsciously wish things would've gone in my life?
Ms could I please say a few words about Emily I know its unconventional but its important okay my principal said without arguing
Dear my sweet Emily
I haven't known you long but I do know you are a strong and smart young woman and one day you will have everything you deserve in life
Those words sound familiar.....
Hopefully, this is something you feel you deserve because I love you and want you in my life for the rest of our days will you marry me he said looking at me as he drops to his knee
This is a dream already know that so what's the harm in saying yes to a question I will never get asked but as soon as I go to open my mouth I'm being pulled away from a scene I never thought I wanted to see and into a grassy field
Hello, Emily, it's my mother again this time she is in the dress she was berried in
Okay what is going on mom
Well nice to see you too come here
Oh, mom, I miss you
I know darling watching you is not the same as being there
What is all of this though
Well it's about you and Jamieson I want to make sure that you're not confused that boy or man is your boyfriend, not your father I understand that he came into your life when you were looking for help and Toby just gravitated to him and he takes amazing care of you both but
mother this is crazy I know Jameson is not Jack
are you sure
yes
Emily listen your father left walked out not all men will do that I believe Jamieson is good for you but I think you are looking at him as a father figure and to you, that means leaving you haven't opened up to him really he knows what he knows cause he has seen it, first-hand hun, I know you care for this boy and you don't want to lose him but I think before you can really move forward with him you need to have your father tell you anything you may not understand
mom he left you us for someones you raise someone else
and that someone else happens to be your boyfriend
and it was when she said that, that it all clicked and I woke up...
I don't trust my boyfriend because he was raised by a man who left his first family for one of no blood relation.....
