Chapter 37
Chloe: You know what Brady maybe it is time that you and Philip take part some fault in this.
Brady: What in the hell is that supossed to mean?
Mimi: I agree you guys need to quit taking the easy way out and blaming Shawn. Yeah Shawn messed up but everything that goes wrong in Belle's life can't be Shawn's fault sooner or later you have to put some of the blame on yourself and your sister.
Philip: How dare you say this is my fault. I love my sister.
Mimi: Do you Philip? I am not sure. Ever since you got back you almost have forgotten about her and what she is going through. Did it ever occur to you that you have abandoned her. I am willing to take responsibility for my part in this but when are you two going to wake up and see that your sister was hurting and she needed you.
Brady: I can't believe that you two are turning this around on us.
Chloe: Well believe it. Did you tell Belle where you were going to be. Did you offer to come stay with her? I mean less than 2 days ago Belle had her heart broken and we all abandon her. Granted that Shawn is the one that broke her heart but he is still there trying to take care of her.
Brady: You want to talk about taking care of Belle? Let me tell all of you something. When we were stuck back on Phatos, I was the one who took care of Belle. On days when she couldn't even get out of bed, I took care of her. I was there for her and Philip, taking care of both of them at the same time. Do you know how hard that was?
Philip: Belle wasn't easy to take care of when she was pregnant. She was a nightmare.
Chloe: Ok so you took care of her while she was pregnant but what about now? She still needs you, Brady.
Brady: I just assumed that when we got back here, Shawn would take over. I mean Philip stepped up and is helping Mimi with her kid.
Philip: I love Landon and I would do anything for him. Is it so wrong of me if I want to spend time with Mimi and my son instead of my sister and my niece?
Mimi: There is nothing wrong with wanting to spend time with me but you shouldn't forget about Belle.
Chloe: Belle just had a baby and she is hurting because of Shawn. Everyone left her to take care of the baby by herself. Did it even occur to any of us that she might not know how to take care of Zariana? No! But did we care? No we didn't care.
Mimi: After I had Landon, I had no idea how to care for him. I had to learn with the help of Craig and lots of books about babies.
Philip: I just can't believe you are going to blame me and Brady for the way Belle is acting.
Brady: Why are you blaming us? I did my best to take care of my sister. I even tried to kill Shawn.
Shawn: I still remember the pain too. But Mimi and Chloe are right. Belle has been alone a lot since you got back.
Brady: You broke her heart. Don't you even start with me.
Shawn: At least I'm trying to make things better with Belle. At least I'm here. I had no idea how to even reach you tonight. Craig had to tell me where you might be at. What would have happened if there was something he needed to know that only you and Philip could answer? What would I have done then.
Shawn broke down into tears and handed Zariana to Chloe and ran down the hall.
Brady: He is running away from the guilt just like he ran away from Belle.
Chloe: You know what Brady maybe it is time that you and Philip take part some fault in this.
Brady: What in the hell is that supossed to mean?
