IAN's POV
It'd been three days since Nonna's party and I still couldn't shake of the sadness in me. Who could imagine that all thiswhile that Zach's been bragging about his new girl, she turns out to be Tori? My TORI? And the baby she was with. Herbaby for a fact since the adorable child called her 'mommy'. Why did it feel like I knew the child? Plus she had some ofmy features. Dark brown eyes and curly brown hair. Wait! What if Tori was already married?
Don't be a dumbass. If she was married would you have seen her with Zach?
TORI'S POVI was in the grocery shop down the road when a white Bentley drove past us. I saw it cause I was at the window. It wasrear to see such cars in this neighbourhood. But then I remembered Zach had a lot of cars and he's been coming here a lotlately. Maybe he's the one. I quickly made my way to the counter and paid for the food items I got. I walked a smalldistance and noticed the car was parked in front of my apartment building. Oh. It must be Zach. Just then, Rita startedcalling. I didn't see it necessary to answer when I was just about two minutes to my home, that would be wasting herphone credit.I walked up to my door and opened it with
IAN'S POV"And as you walk out of that door, walk out of my life as well."Those words kept playing in my mind. I couldn't concentrate on my driving. I kept running my fingers through my hair infrustration. I could tell she was lying. I knew her so well. I could tell when she was lying and when she was not. The lookin her eyes...she could hardly look at me.And Dahlia? She is such a lovely child. I can't get my mind off her. Asking for a DNA test would simply be an insult toTori. I mean, I've not been there for the past four years. Not that it was intentional. I really tr
TORI'S POVThe week passed by so fast and it was already Monday morning. I looked at my daughter in her new school uniform. Shelooked so pretty. I enrolled her in the same school with Bella. At least, she should know someone so she won't be lonely. Ibecame teary eyed looking at my little princess as she kept posing happily for me. She was beyond excited to startschool."I look great, right momma?" She asked in a cheerful mood.I smiled and nodded, pulling her into a bear hug. "You're so beautiful. I bet you'd be the prettiest girl in your class." I toldher, increasing
TORI'S POVI was so lucky that Rico gave me another chance to work for him. I was grateful that he understood my situation. He's agood man and if i wasn't so stuck up with my past and issues with guys, I'll have given him the chance he'd been askingfor.Finn was super excited i was back to working with him. I mean, I had only been gone for a week but he made it seemlike i was gone for a whole year. He even promised to treat me to dinner. Of course, Dahlia included. He was so happythat I enrolled Dahlia in school, saying....'finally, her smart mouth would be put to good use.' I laughed at his corny joke.
TORI'S POV."So tell me honey, what was the favorite part of your day?" I asked Dahlia as i made some chicken sauce. Zach said hewould stop by to see Dahlia no matter how much i told him its not necessary. He insisted, saying he had a rough day andDahlia and I were the only people he wanted to see at the moment.Dahlia looked up at me from the story book she had in her hands. "Being introduced to everyone in class."
IAN'S POVLuck was on my side.... the moment i reached the school, i saw Andrea. She was friends with Tori back in high schooland always rooted for the two of us. She was beyond excited to see me after so many years. The cute young brunettefrom high school had grown so big. Apparently, she is a teacher in the pre school and had stayed back after classes to getsome work done. That's why i was lucky enough to see her. When she inquired about what i was doing in a pre school, ihonestly did not know what to say. I scratched my forehead."Wait....Do you have a child enrolled here?" She asked with so much enthusiasm.
TORI'S POVA week had passed since i met Andrea and Ian. I honestly don't know why Ian was in that school. Something was notadding up. Is he now stalking my daughter? I hope not. As for Andrea, I wasn't ready to talk to her. She never didanything wrong. She was in Canada when Ian left me and had no idea about my pregnancy. I just couldn't face her andtell her i did not finish school or achieve any of my plans because i got knocked up. So for the past week, i begged Ritaand Susan to drop and pick up Dahlia from school.I had to work
TORI'S POV"Uhhh...aunt...i came to see..." Zach was going to answer but the doctor walked out.The male doctor looked up from the chart he was holding. "Dahlia Donovan?""Yes...I'm her mom." I chirped in immediately.Ian's mom scoffed. "Its not strange you got knocked up so early."I ignored her and looked back at the doctor. "How's my child?"The doctor looked at Zach. "Is this her father?"Ian's mother looked shocked. "Zach? No way."
