Goodbye to You
"If you walk out that door, Carl, you'll regret it."
I'd been planning to share with him the good news tonight—that I was pregnant with our baby. He'd always said he wanted a child, but now, he was nothing but rotten.
Carl didn't say a word. He stayed silent until the candle burned out completely, leaving us in the dark.
"Hailey, it's just this one time," he finally said. "I've already explained it. After this, I won't be involved with her anymore. Why can't you just let it go?"
