Life After the Storm

It's been a hard couple of days since Landon hasn't talked to me and Jayden is staying away. I'm unsure of what is happening, but I just let it go. I have been so consumed with Jayden that I forgot I'm about to become a mother.

My belly has been growing, I am starting to feel flutters in my stomach, I'm uncertain if that is the baby moving. I think that I have blocked out my pregnancy on purpose. Just because I'm scared and not sure how I'm going to do this. I know that I will find a way no matter what. I just wish I wasn't scared of what is coming.

I have been spending most of my time in my cabin just relaxing. Forgetting how good it feels. All of a sudden, I hear a knock at the door, uncertain who it is I grabbed my robe to put it on. I walk over to the door and I open it hoping that it is Jayden, but when I open the door to my disappointment it is not Jayden.
