‘Brian, Jacob,‘ she thought bitterly, ‘after all the contempt you showed me and forcing me to leave, why are you trying to come back into my life now? Why can’t you just leave me alone?‘

Jessica tossed and turned for most of the night, unable to fall asleep. Clutching her aching belly, she knew she couldn’t keep going on like this.

Fortunately, she had her appointment with Wesley tomorrow.

Jessica kept trying to numb herself, playing some soothing music in the background. Eventually, exhaustion took over and she drifted off to sleep.

“Alright, alright, divorce it is then. Don’t get so worked up, honey. I was just throwing it out there. Your wishes come first, of course,” Mom said.

Seeing Jessica’s agitation, Stella quickly soothed her.

“Jessi, if there’s anything bothering you, you can always talk to me,” Stella said gently. “Don’t keep it all bottled up inside. It hurts me to see you like this.”
