Savannah sighed as she sadly looked through a family photo album, stopping when she saw the last picture.
It was the first and the only ultrasound photo that she and Deacon got before Savannah lost the baby.
Closing the photo album, Savannah began to think about why her marriage had hit a rough spot.
A part of her wondered if Deacon had blamed her for losing the baby.
Still, she knew the real reason was that he had wanted to try for another kid right away, but Savannah decided to have a birth control implant that would last up to at least three years implanted into her.
Yes, she should have talked to Deacon about it before she did it, but Savannah was traumatized from waking up in her blood.
Savannah tried to explain to him that she could have the implant taken out whenever she wants to; she just wasn't ready to have another kid just yet.
The tension between the two has gotten so bad the only time Deacon will speak to Savannah is in front of the kids, and when they're alone, their conversation is only about the kids.
Savannah now sleeps alone at night, Deacon having moved to the guest bedroom. The only people who know what's going on with the couple are Savannah's parents, Daisy, and Hondo.
Looking at the time, Savannah decided to start getting ready since she was going out with Daisy that night. When she was finished getting ready, Savannah saw that it was about time for Deacon to be home, so she stood and waited by the door only to cut him off when he came in.
"Good, your home. You may not be speaking to me, but you can listen. I'm going out with Daisy tonight, Madisyn is with my parents. So are Lila and Victoria, they both wanted to go. I'm sorry that I didn't ask you first, but I was supposed to tell them no and tell Madisyn she couldn't go with her grandparents. Also, I might be home late, and at some point, you're going to have to talk to me because the kids are starting to notice and ask questions." Savannah tells him before walking out the door and getting into her car meeting Daisy at this bar she wanted to go too.
"You are one hot looking mama in that outfit Savvy," Daisy tells her best friend as they walk into the bar.
"You don't look so bad yourself," Savannah replied as they go to order their drinks and head to a table.
"So, how are things going between you and David?"
"The same since we last talked. Daisy, please be honest with me, do you think me and David may have rushed into the marriage because of the twins?"
"That's a hard question to answer. The night you two had dinner with your parents to tell them about you being pregnant again, David asked your dad if he could marry you."
"I never knew that. Sometimes I feel like my marriage is coming to an end." Savannah tells Daisy as she begins to chug down her drink.
"Wow, sweetie, slow down on the drink. Now I'm no fortune teller, so I can't tell you what exactly is going to happen with your marriage, but maybe all of this is happening for a reason as a sign of some sort. I don't know if it's to tell you that maybe you did rush into the marriage, the only person who can figure out that you are." Daisy tells her before getting a phone call from Luca, telling her that she needed to come home.
"Sweetie, I have to go. Jack is teething, and Dominic can't get him to stop crying." Daisy says, standing up.
"Go, I remember those days. I'm going to stay here for a little bit longer and think about what you said. I'll be ok, I promise." Savannah replied as she went to get another drink.
