Epilogue Pt.1

Megan's POV

5 years later...

"But mommy, I don't want to eat my asparaguses." My four year old daughter whined.

"You have to. Remember what happened to me when I didn't eat my asparagus?"

"Your thumb fell off."

"Exactly. Now hurry up, I have to take you to your daddy's house." I said while wiping my hands on my apron.

"I don't understand mommy. Why don't you live in the same house as daddy anymore?"

"Because sweetie, some people live like that. Now hurry up, your dad is expecting you at 8 o' clock."

"Okay mommy." She said, shoving the last piece of asparagus in her tiny mouth and hopping off her stool.

She came prouncing back, her cute little pigtails swaying to the side of her face.

"I'm ready mommy!"

******************************

I got out of the car and anxiously made my way to Jale's house. I held Lucy's hand as she hopped skipped and jumped to her see her father.

"Daddy!" She squealed, a huge smile on her face. She jumped into his arms and he twirled her around without glancing at me.

"How's my little princess doing?"

"Good!" She giggled.

I smiled sadly. I really wished Jale and I weren't seperated. I really did.

But time goes on, things change. 

And I have cancer.

My lip quivered and I turned away. I got into my car and slowly drove to my house.

It's crazy.

I've never been more scared than I am now. It's almost funny, actually. I was in a gang, I killed people, I watched people get killed. I was never worried about myself. I'm not worried about myself.

I'm worried about Lucy. I don't want her to grow up without a mother. I want Lucy. I want to watch her grow and become a woman.

Is that too selfish?

Perhaps, but I was never a good person.

And that's the thing. I want to be a good person. I want to be good person for Lucy.

But I can't.
