Chapter 10 – NIcole's POV

What will I do? What will I tell him? What ... ?

How do you tell someone that you have a child together? That the said child , which he by the way doesn't know, was in an accident with its gradpa and is in a hospital.

I don't know how badly she is injured or how my dad is. All that was said to me – ‚There was an accident. Your child is injured. Come to Hospital St.Mary. (She lived in the town so she must know where it is, okay?)

And I know he wants an explanation. His eyes tell me so.

My unsure eyes travel behind Chase. I glance at Ray and he offers me a small smile and for the first time I think maybe everything will be okay. Marianne will be fine.

And maybe ... maybe it's time.

It's time she gets to know her father and he her.

I start to feel the tears falling from my eyes again and I lower my head. I can't face them when I whisper the sentence which will change Chase's whole life. And I can't stand the thought that he may start hating me for keeping the knowledge of my ... his ... OUR daugher from him.

My words are hard to catch by ears when I whisper : „It's my daughter. She had an accident."

Ma gaze settles on Chase and I wait for some reaction. I can only see shock.
