Short chapter to begin with, sorry i haven't started on a sequal to Returning yet, i havent had any bursts of inspiration and I feel like whichever path i take the story it will become boring, i got inspired with this story by Sinead on Hollyoaks, she WILL be featured in this story but it is not a collab with hollyoaks :) please R&R and let me know your thoughts :) other chapters will be longer! x
For me, Lauren Branning, life was never easy.
I had a one and a half year old daughter, Kira-Jo, her dad is my cousin.
She never see's her dad as the last time I saw him was when we decided to try and rebuild our relationship, cut long story short, I was a recovering alcoholic, he didn't want to get in the way of my recovery so we took things slowly, that was before I caught him in bed with my on and off best friend Lucy.
That was when I decided enough was enough and moved back down to Exeter with my mum. It wasn't until I arrived back where I found out I was pregnant, I didn't know how to tell my mum, I didn't even know how far I was gone as the last time I had had sex was way back in April, with Joey.. call it 'make up' sex as he forgave me for forgetting his marathon.
I booked an appointment at the nearest hospital to get everything checked out, I found out i was 8 and a half months pregnant.. I couldn't believe it at first as I had no signs, no sickness, no symptoms and most of all.. no bump.
They showed me on the screen a beautiful baby growing inside me, I felt my ears water up, how could I not have known I was pregnant?
Anyway, I'm rabbling on.. I couldn't tell mum, she'd only make me put it up for adoption or worse, so I gathered some money together and moved down to Liverpool where me and Kira now live in a flat looking out onto a river bank
Its hard to afford money to keep me and Kira living, I need food in the fridge, clothes on her back and I just cant afford it.
So every night, I'd leave her with a friend I'd come to make called Demi, I told Demi I was just going to work, well technically I was.. what Demi didn't know was the name of my job was prostitution.
PLEASE R&R
