Hi everyone. Just adding a new Chapter and probably another one this weekend. I want to thank everyone for their reviews and ideas. It's nice to know that people are enjoying my story and it makes me want to continue it. Comments and Flames Still Welcome! 

Chapter 4

The Bennetts' House

Charity sat on her bed, looking down at a picture of her and Miguel. How could he hurt me like this? How could he sleep with my cousin Kay and get her pregnant, and then not tell me they slept together? What did I ever do to Kay for her to sleep with my fiancé? Was I not enough for him? Did I do something wrong for him to betray me like this? These questions running through her head over and over again, as the memories of finding out that Miguel and Kay slept together during her wedding. There was no point of going anywhere, since everywhere she went reminded her their love and his betrayal. Plus no matter how much her family and friends tried to comfort her; they didn't understand what she was going through. No one did, except for one person and she weren't sure if she could step in the house of her love to see them, or if they were up for talking. Charity had heard about what happened to Theresa after Julian and Rebecca took Little Ethan away from her. She heard about it when Grace asked Eve how the custody trial went. She couldn't believe that Rebecca and Julian would sink that low and that Ethan and Gwen adopted Little Ethan afterwards. She couldn't believe that Ethan would let that happen. She knew like everyone else, despite those who acted like they didn't, that Ethan loved Theresa more than anything, he was always telling Sam and Ivy how much he did, but he couldn't because of his obligation to Gwen. In Charity's opinion, Ethan is scared of true love, and the only reason he stays with Gwen is because of the non-risk it is to stay with her. Miguel's betrayal was peanuts compared to Ethan's. She could understand why Theresa pulled into herself, to lose your only child to your enemies and the person you believed was your soul mate betray you like Ethan did, she probably would have done the same thing. Despite Theresa's crazy schemes, her heart was usually in the right place, and she took responsibility for everything she did. Charity looked up to Theresa for that. She admired how Theresa always followed her heart and believed in fate and destiny, and despite everything she went through, all the pain she endured, she came out stronger than anyone would be. Charity knew that Theresa even helped Miguel when it came to showing his love for her and giving him advice. She herself had gone to Theresa for advice when she wondered about Miguel's love for her. Theresa was like a sister to her, and she'd never forget how much Theresa helped her. She slid off her bed, placing the picture back in its spot and stood up. She walked to her closet, pulled out her coat, and slipped it on. Heading out of her room, down the stairs and out the door. I'm going to visit Theresa, maybe I can help her or cheer her up plus it could help get my mind off of Miguel, she thought on her way to Pilar's.

Hope you enjoyed it. I know it's a small chapter, but it will be longer next time. Next Chapter coming up soon… Theresa and Charity talk about the future, and Fox takes Little Ethan to Theresa.
