Chapter 42 - Katie

I’m still a little shocked. Yesterday, I found out I’m pregnant again. This time around, Mark is here, and I don’t think anything can tear him away from me and our children now, which gives me a sense of relief.

The love and tenderness he shows me is amazing. I have never thought in my wildest dreams I could have a relationship like this. It is perfect. Well, not exactly perfect, but as perfect as I can get. I feel so fortunate to have such an amazing fiancé and his parents are just as amazing.

I keep putting off the topic of where we will live after we get married. I’m so torn. I really want to go back home and be around my friends and Mark’s family, but the picture is always shattered when I think about my family. Why do I have such a hard family to deal with?

My dream now would be that my family can handle the fact I’m marrying the love of my life and we have children together, but I’m not going to risk my happy life with Mark by allowing my family back into our lives.
