Way Too Overprotective
Chapter 2:
Waking up bright and early, I went downstairs to find my mother cooking breakfast. "Good morning." I said as I took a seat at the island.
"Good morning dear, I hope you had a good night sleep?" Mom questioned. "Yes, I did. I had forgotten how comfortable my bed was." I laughed, trying to fix my hair.
"Yes well you haven't been home in awhile." She commented, trying to hide a smirk.
"I know." Sighing, "And I'm sorry for leaving like I did. Also I apologize for not contacting you over the past five years." Mom turned and smiled, "I forgive you Isabella, just don't ever do that again." She said sternly, gasping my hand before going back to cooking.
I realized how much I had hurt everyone and I knew I had to fix it and move on.
"So where is Dad?" I questioned, trying to change the subject.
"Your father had to go into the firm early." She explained, while setting my breakfast in front of me.
Father was one of Seattle's best lawyers and was usually always working. Mom came and set next to me, "Isabella there is something I wanted to talk to you about." She said, while starring at me. I looked up, knowing this subject would come up sooner or later.
"Yes." Turning to face her,
"Why did you leave? Were you not ready to get married?" She asked. Looking away, I prepared to tell her the truth; "Mom…" stopping. "I left because I was pregnant." I finally got it out.
A gasp ran through the now silent kitchen, "You were pregnant?" she asked, double questioning the situation.
I nodded, "Ok, so where is the child?"
Silence crept even louder in the room, making me shiver. I looked up, unable to look her in the eyes; "I lost it."
After my confession, my mother excused herself, leaving me to finish breakfast alone. She was either upset or in shock, at the time I had found out I was pregnant, I was scarred and engaged to be married to Edward. Eighteen and ready to head off to college with my soon-to-be husband, Edward was facing a huge internship right after high school and had been accepted to one of the best medical colleges in the country. I knew I couldn't ruin his life with a baby. Although the baby was coming at the wrong time I decided that I was going to keep it. The day I left Edward at the altar, I was five weeks pregnant; so I ran. With my trust fund kicking in soon and the money my parents had given me for college I had more than enough to take care of the baby, but I never got the chance. Leaving Edward and my family was the worse thing I could do for the baby and my health; from the stress I miscarried at just Ten weeks.
After the miscarriage I started seeing a therapist and applied for school at the University of Chicago; which is how I was lead home after I graduated.
The door slammed and shook me out of my thoughts, "Renee!" a familiar voice sang out in my mind. Esme Cullen. I turned to come face to face with Esme Cullen, the mother of Edward Cullen, the mother I had once called my own. "Bella your home!" Esme gasped as if out of breathe, shock spread across her face.
"Esme, it's good to see you." Standing up from the table,
"Yes as to you the same." She tried a fake smile, "When did you get home?" she questioned me.
"Last night." I answered, frowning. "Esme I'm so sorry…" I tired but was interrupted. "Bella I'm not the one you should be apologizing too." She glared. I expected this much from Esme, she felt as if I had betrayed her. I had left such a mess behind, "I understand that you are angry with me." Turning to leave, I headed up the stairs then stopped. "Esme please don't tell anyone I'm back." I asked.
"Why not so that you can leave again!" she yelled.
I shook my head continuing up the stairs, "I'll let you handle that Isabella1." She called after me.
All I could think was how was I going to get myself out of this mess.
