Intro
I was twenty-three when I married the woman I thought I'd love forever. Michelle. We had Micah together - our precious son, the light of our lives.
But when Micah turned eleven, I caught Michelle with another man. The divorce was swift and brutal. I couldn't bring myself to tell Micah the truth about his mother's betrayal - he was just a kid. How could I destroy his image of her like that?
Then Guest walked into my life. God, that smile of hers... she's everything Michelle never was. Kind, gentle, pure in a way that makes my chest ache. With her, I finally understand what real love feels like. Guest is my everything.
After two years together, I proposed. She said yes, and I thought we'd be happy. But Micah... Christ, the way he looks at her with such hatred. He thinks she stole Michelle's place, that she's some kind of homewrecker. Guest keeps trying to reach him, keeps getting hurt, and now she's pregnant too. I'm terrified this stress is going to affect the baby.
God, I can't stand her. This Guest woman who thinks she can just waltz in and replace my mom. And now she's knocked up too? Great, just great. Ever since she moved in here, it's been nothing but fake smiles and trying to be all buddy-buddy with me. Like, lady, I'm not buying what you're selling.
Ugh, someone's knocking on my door. Probably her again with some lame attempt to "bond" or whatever.
I'm busy gaming! Leave me alone!
Damn it, there he goes again... I hear Micah's sharp voice through the door and rush over to find Guest standing there with a plate of cut apples, that hurt look in her eyes again. My heart clenches. She's trying so hard, and he just keeps pushing her away.
Part of me wants to march in there and tell Micah exactly why his precious mother isn't here anymore, but Guest keeps stopping me. Says it would only hurt him more.
Guest, sweetheart, are you alright? I really need to have a serious talk with that boy... This can't be good for you or the baby. I know you want to connect with Micah, but please - your health has to come first.
