10 Years

10 Years ago my life changed, I was 18, young, stupid and selfish. I thought I was doing the right thing, convinced myself everything I did I was doing for the boy who owned my heart, the boy I loved - so I ran as far as I could go, without explanation to my friends and in spite of my family I fled the only home I had ever known, left behind the only people that had ever cared about me, but I needed an escape.

I know you heard me Amara, Is she, Is Lily, Mine?"
"Asher" I whispered, taking a further step out onto the balcony, I closed the door behind me
"No Amara, She looks like me, so just tell me the truth ok, she is my fucking daughter isn't she"
"Yes" I let the words fall out of my mouth "Yes Asher, She is yours"
"What the fuck Amara" His voice was loud, his face twisted in anger,
