2 Months later- Moving day: SeptemberI was gigantic, I had no idea how I was going to do this move. I was packing while Steve and my father would move everything. I was so excited to be done this step. The baby was expected in December, we planned out a wedding in May. I refused to get married with this big belly, even though I enjoyed being pregnant I didn’t want my wedding pictured to include me being pregnant.Steve was so excited, he went up the house with Bethany for a few days and got all the painting done with the colors I chose and somehow managed to find time to find a job while he was up there. He was starting in 2 weeks so he could help me get settled.He was going to be working in the mining industry here in town, I didn’t even know they had one but it turned out they were doing exploration mining. He would be working 7 days on then 7 days off. We had the truck loaded, I sort of laughed I had the two men here who helped me move the last few times too, but this time

5 months later: MayIt was been a crazy few months, I have been a stay at home mom of 3 kids, while Steve worked a lot and also planning a wedding. We’ve decided to have a backyard wedding since we had a huge backyard to have guests in and we didn’t have many people coming. We both didn’t have much family and our friends well they sort of stop coming around much as we start having kids.We still haven’t heard from Bethany its been almost 8 months and it has been quite the challenge to get Heather to doctor appointments and stuff since we weren’t her legal guardian. I could tell Steve was really hopeful she would be here today to support us and meet Junior but I was doubtful.Tomorrow was the big day and Steve took the next few days off to help me set everything up, luckily we had a caterer coming to take care of the food, we rented tables and chairs. We spent the entire day setting things up, my father was taking the three kids with him at the hotel while Steve was staying with the

Steves POVI was up extremely early this morning as I headed to the house to start getting ready, I didn’t sleep good when Kay wasn’t next to me. I starred up to our window contemplating sneaking up there for a little bit but I knew that was supposed to be bad luck. We’ve had enough bad luck I didn’t need anymore.I began moving things around and keeping my mind busy as Hank showed up with the kids, my little cousin was on baby duty today. She was only 12 but we were all here to help her out she just needed to play with them and she was so proud she was taking care of babies.Hank was helping me out when he got a call and headed into the house, I began to worry about Kay, I hope she wasn’t getting cold feet. I watched as Hank walked in, I was looking for my phone and I couldn’t find it. I hope she wasn’t trying to get a hold of me, I knew Hank would fill me in when he got back.I continued to place the chairs and fix up the arch, I also had a few gazebos to set up and put some tab

The next day we woke up early to head to the hospital to visit Bethany, we left the kids with my father. We were supposed to go spend a few days at his cottage for a little time away but with everything that happened with Bethany we figured we should stick around. Once we got to the hospital and signed in we asked to see her when the doctor came out,“I’m sorry you can’t see her.”Steve shook his head, “She’s my sister I just want to know if she’s okay and see if she needs anything.”The doctor looked through her chart as he shook his head, “She checked herself out last night and refused treatment. We had a psychologist talk to her and he deemed her fit to make the choice.We got her blood work back and she had several opiates in her system.”Steve looked at me and back to the doctor,“How is she fit to leave, she tried to kill herself, and left her daughter with us. She doesn’t even want to see her, she nearly ruined out wedding. She obviously has some sort of depression going on.”

Steve got home pretty late, I stayed up anxiously to see what happened. He walked up to me and gave me a gentle kiss on the lips that lasted just long enough, once he pulled away he walked into the kitchen to grab a glass of water. He’s mind was somewhere else as he was drinking his water looking out the window.“Are you hungry babe, I can make you something?”He shook his head, “No I’m good thanks babe.”I waited for him to say something else but nothing else came out.“How did the visit go? Is he dating Bethany?”He looked over at me and nodded before having another drink. He’s eyes were fixed outside in the dark, I walked over next to him and wrapped my arms around his waist as he held onto me. We stood and started into the darkness until Steve pulled away,“We should head to bed babe, we are going to have a late night tomorrow.” He gave me a smile but I could tell it was forced.One thing I learnt about Steve over the years was the way he handled things, he always kept everything
