Now or Never.

Chapter 40

It's been a few months since we have heard from Nicole. I'm relieved but also scared. Who knows what she's up too.
I can't lose him, not again. Not now.

Julia is now 8 months old. A daddy's girl.
I'm blessed with the most beautiful family.

" Juliette?" Kane says as he walks into the room. I shut my lap top so he doesn't see that I've been stalking his ex and her pregnancy.

" hmm?" I say an stand up off the bed.

" you'll go crazy watching her everyday! " he says an points to the laptop with his empty hand, Julia in the other. Crap.

I smile and walk to my little girl, not saying anything to kane.

" your mom set up family pictures today. We should get ready. " he says as he steps into his closet. We moved into a bigger house, our house. I nod and take Julia to my mom to get her ready!

" EVERYONE READY? We need to go now." My mom yells as I finish the last strand of hair.
Kane laughs at her and she sticks her tongue out at him. They have gotten closer since Florida. Ugh how I miss they Keys.

We arrived at the place where the photographer told us too meet her. It's a old barn, very rustic. Good thing we all wore flannels.

" hello? Yeah. I'm busy at the moment. I'll leave soon." Kane says on the phone. Must be Jeffery.

I wish we could be normal, ya know? Normal family, getting pictures taken. But that will never happen.
We took a lot of pictures. Julia loves the outdoors. She's such a little me.

" hey baby, I gotta go." He says an kisses my forehead. I nod. Disappointed.
I watch him walk to a car that's he's for him, he leaves. I have a bad feeling about this.

We made it back to the house. Julia is down for a nap. Curiosity took over me, I grab my laptop. To see if Nicole has been up to anything.. to my surprise she has.

She posted a picture.. at a baby doctors appointment.. with Kane..

My heart dropped. My faces feels hot. Tears start to roll down my face.
Why does he do this to me? Why not tell me the truth? After all honesty is the best policy.
I throw my phone at the wall. Hoping it shatters, but doesnt.

My mom comes running in. Grabbing me. Holding me. Not saying anything. She knows how stressed and depressed I've been about all this. The laptop shows the pictures of Kane an Nicole's baby. And Kane with her..

My mom shuts it an continues to hold me. Trying to calm me down.

————————————————————————

Hours pass. No sign of Kane. Nothing. I've finally calmed down. Julia is more important than anything and anyone. She needs me. I need her. Nothing will change that. Not Nicole, not Kane!

I lay in bed, my eyes feel heavy.  I fall asleep, stained cheeks, puffy eyes. I cried myself to sleep.

I'm awaken by noise. Odd. It's 3:15 in the morning. I turn on the side lamp an kane is standing in the bathroom. Packing? I stand up an make my way to the bathroom.

" your leaving? " I laugh. Pain is the last emotion I'm feeling right now. He stands there. Not saying a word.

" fine! Be that way! Leave! " I yell. Not caring at this point.
" juls." He says softly.

I ignore him an walk to his closet and throw his clothes out. I'm to pissed off to even care. Julia is sleeping in my mother's room anyway.

" I knew it! I fucking knew it! It's all been bullshit to you! " I spit out. Tears threatening my face. 

" you wouldn't understand Juliette." He speaks.

" oh? No? What don't I understand kane? That your standing in OUR fucking home, packing your stuff, leaving? I'm so glad this b.. " I shut myself up.

" I'm sorry baby. " he says coming closer to me. I step back.

" don't you dare fucking come near me! " I laugh again. He picks his stuff off the floor and walks out.

" I love you Juliette.." he says an turns around an leaves.
