Olivia sobbed as Felix sat beside her and rubbed her back. Olivia didn't know why nothing could go right in her life. She kept losing everyone. First Elliot, and now the first man she ever managed to love after her first love had passed away.

"Trevor still loves you, Olivia. You didn't lose him." Felix spoke. 

"Felix, I'm not his wife. I will never be his wife again. He loves Angie, and he won't love me ever again because she's back. They are meant to be together. We aren't." Olivia whimpered. She rubbed her swell gently as her son squirmed inside.

"Honey, come home with me," Felix spoke gently.

"No... I'm going to go home to my mom... and my girls." Olivia breathed as she brushed tears from her cheeks.

"Do you want me to drive you over? Then I can pick you up tomorrow for work." Felix spoke, as Olivia stood slowly as her body shook.

"I'm not working tomorrow, Felix. I don't even know if I'll get out of bed tomorrow."

Trevor sat numbly on the edge of the bed as he prayed for Olivia to walk through that door and come home to him. Ember was in her bedroom, unaware of what was happening at all. He wanted to keep it that way because he didn't want his daughter to know that her mother was actually alive... not until he was ready to approach it.

"Daddy?" Ember whispered as she came into her father's room. She was in tears because she didn't like that her family was falling apart once again.

"Em, what are you doing up?" Trevor asked quietly.

"Go after Olivia. Please." Ember begged.

"I tried... she doesn't want anything to do with me anymore." Trevor frowned.

"What did you do to her?" Ember asked quietly.

"Ember, we can't talk about this right now. I need time."

"What did you do?!" Ember cried as the doorbell rang downstairs. Trevor stood quickly and walked to the window. He looked down and saw Angie standing on the front porch. Now was not the time.

"Go back to bed," Trevor spoke, as he quickly moved past his daughter before going downstairs. He looked behind him to see if Ember had followed him before answering the door.

"Angie." Trevor breathed, before being attacked with a hug from his first wife. She kept her arms wrapped tightly around his body as he awkwardly tried to figure out what to do at this moment.

"Let me stay, Trev. I want to stay here with you and Ember." Angie sniffled.

"Ember doesn't know yet, Angie. I don't want to tell her right now." 

"You don't want to tell her that her mother is alive?" Angie asked, her voice shaking as she spoke.

"Daddy, who's here?" Ember asked as she quietly came down the stairs. Trevor turned around quickly and tried to block Angie, but she moved past him and looked at her daughter.

"You are so beautiful." Angie whimpered as she looked at her daughter.

"Who are you?" Ember asked as she crossed her arms over her chest.

"You don't know who I am?" Angie asked, and Ember shook her head.

"I don't... are you the reason why my father and his wife are no longer together?" Ember asked, and Angie turned and looked at Trevor before swallowing hard as she turned back.

"I'm your mother, Ember. I didn't die in the accident... I got tossed from the bus and lost my memory. But I got better and I'm here now. I'm your Mommy, Ember. C'mere, sweet girl." Angie spoke, and Ember stared at her mother with wide eyes.

"My Mommy is dead... Olivia is my mom now." She mumbled.

"Ember-" Angie started, but Ember shook her head.

"YOU DIED IN THE CRASH!" The girl screamed before ran back upstairs and into her room. She slammed the door as Angie turned and looked at Trevor.

"Does she not believe me?" Angie asked quietly.

"Angie, you've been dead for 7 years. I didn't believe you at first." Trevor whispered, before looking back at the door.

"Do you not want to be with me?" Angie whispered.

"I'm confused right now... but I still love you."

"Then stay with me."

Olivia slept most of the time after she found out her husband's first wife was still alive. She didn't know what to think or how to feel about this all. She knew that she had to do something with her life because she was 22 weeks pregnant at this point and needed to take care of the three kids she was going to have. She had to take care of herself to make sure her son was healthy, and she had to make sure her girls still knew they had her, even if they didn't have Trevor anymore.

"Hey, sweetie. I haven't seen you in almost a week." Serena spoke, as her daughter walked downstairs in her uniform. It was hugging her belly that had seemed to grow a little more in the last week.

"I need to go to work." Olivia breathed.

"Honey, you can stay home," Serena spoke.

"No... I need to go to work. I need to make money."

"Are you going to call Trevor?" Serena asked, and Olivia shook her head as she fought off tears.

"No... he's probably messing around with Angie. He doesn't love me as he loves her... We probably would have been living a lie if she hadn't come back."

"He loves you and he has been calling here every day. He is asking how you are doing and how that little boy is. Let alone all the questions about Adalee and Ainsley." Serena spoke, as she reached out and gently touched her daughter's stomach. Olivia looked at her mother for a long moment before shaking her head.

"I'm a horrible person, Mom. I shouldn't have married Trevor when I knew he was still hung up on Angie. And I need them to be together now. For their sake and for the sake of Ember." Olivia mumbled. She walked over and grabbed her water bottle from the fridge before turning and walking from the kitchen and to the front door. She opened it slowly before stopping and swallowing hard when she looked at Trevor standing there.

"Babe, we need to talk."
