2 years later..
I had been clean from cocaine for about two years life was great Claire was almost 7 years old and I hated her growing up so fast before my eyes she looked like Brian mostly but she had a smile like mine one that could light up a room and eyes that could capture a boy's heart in a minute I didn't want her thinking about boys right now I wanted her to stay my little girl for as long as possible.

Eric wanted to take me out to lunch to celebrate my milestone event he was already downstairs waiting for me to get ready I applied the last of my makeup before grabbing my clutch and heading for the door I had logged into my instagram account to check my number of followers when I had checked my messages from my direct message box one had popped up from Emma. That's surprising I thought.

From Emma :
Michelle I know we haven't gotten off on the right foot but I wanted to apologize with the way I treated you when you brought Brian home that day I really wanted to thank you for that I gave birth to a beautiful baby boy Brian and I haven't decided on a name yet but were getting there.

After reading that message, I put my phone back into my purse and looked out the window I wondered how Brian was handling life as a father to two children must be hard for him I understand but he chose to have another child besides me putting him down like I usually do I should support him and be there for him and I'm deciding to do just that from now on.

Notes

I almost forgot an epilogue! I'm slow at these a sequel is in the works.
