"there is a reason they are called secrets because they shouldnt be said or told just a thought that hunts you and eats you alive with guilt."
We were laying back in my bed I woke up not too long ago when cole asked
- Leila did you think obout it
- Yes
- and I don’t know
- C’mon I know that I messed up but this is torture Leila I love you
- You keep saying you love me
- Because I do, unless you don’t feel the same way
- No don’t try turning this on me
He shifted out of the bed his face showing disappointment
- Cole
- No its okay Leila if you don’t want to marry me
I jumped out from under the covers and chased him down the stairs, we got to the end of the steps and I grabbed his hand and turned him
- Please
I kissed him and he backed away I have somewhere I need to be.
- Babe
He pulled his hand away
- Bye Leila.
I rolled my eyes and went back up to my room when I heard my phone ring MOM
- Hi
- Goodmorning to you too
- Mom if you not ganna say anything then I have things to get to
- Leila don’t start with me this early morning
- Yes m’am
- Your siblins are flying from New York today and were having a family dinner so see you there
- But what i- she hung up.
I grabbed my towel and headed into the shower. I let the water dripp through my hair and relax my headache from all the drama that has been going on lately, losing Bianca, this might blow over and it might not. Well hope for the best.

I was out the showea and wore some shorts and a white tee with my slides. Heade downstairs for breakfast when I heard A LIGHT KNOCK AT MY DOOR I OPENED IT TO FACE MY FATHER.
- Hey Leila
- Hi dad
He was acting a bit out of place and kind of shaky then I noticed the missing ring
- Whats going on
- Me and your mom had a fight
I pulled the door so he could get in then I closed and locked it.
- Dad you wouldn’t take that ring off if she handed you the divorce papers.
He sat down on the couch, I knew this was the job of one person this meant destruction, selvish, thickheaded person this meant…… me.
- Dad did i-
- No Leila don’t
- Did you guys fight because of me
- Don’t do that Leila- he yelled and I froze my dad was furious and upset – a tear ran down my cheeks
- Im sorry sweety
- Its uh okay, dad I don’t want you and mom to get a divorce
- I know you don’t, everythings ganna be alright
He kissed my head
- Dad mom is having a dinner tonight are you coming
- Its just like her
- Dad

I wore my white summer dress with black flats no make-up, I grabbed my purse and headed to my parents.
When I got there everything ws set up beautifully just like my mom to try to win my dad back.

He planted a kiss on both our heads and said
- How are my girls doing

We walked over to the kitchen and she said
- What in the world is wrong with our family
