My Baby and Me
"I refuse to wallow in self pity. I will be strong for my children, I have to be." Making that vow, Theresa gets up and goes back to the living room, watching as Ethan and Gwen move to another room.
Just go, Ethan, go get the hell out of my life. Vowing to be strong, Theresa smiles as she sees her daughter reach for her from Fox's arms.
"Are you alright, Theresa?"
"Yes, Fox. I'm going to make it, and by god, I will stay strong for my children."
"You're a brave woman, Theresa." If only Whitney can be as brave as you. Fox thinks to himself.
"Well, I have my friends and my family, and most of all, my children. I can make it through anything."
"That's right. Ethan doesn't deserve you, Theresa. You deserve a real man. One that will be there for you and your children."
"Funny you say that, Fox. The only man I ever envisioned myself with was Ethan. I never even wanted any other man but him."
"Well, sweetie, now you have to try and move away from that. Ethan is a man like any other, and he has his faults."
"Apparently."
"Trust me, Theresa, you will find the right guy for you."
Yeah, Fox, but the only right guy for me is Ethan. "I guess."
"Come on, we need to go home. Maybe it's time you just focus on your children now, you know?"
"Yeah. Can you give me a few minutes by myself with Jane?"
"Sure, just don't be too long, the pilot will be here soon."
"Alright."
Taking her daughter into her arms, Theresa sighs. "Oh, baby. All I ever wanted was to be a family with your daddy. And now, he hates me. He doesn't want me anymore. How can I go on, knowing that I'll never have your father in my life as my husband? What have I done for my children but caused pain because of my foolish ways? No more, I promise you. From now on, it's just you, me, and your big brother. I promise you, baby, no man is going to get in our way."
