A/N: Heyy all…long time no see, sorry for the long wait but I've been busy with university and everything else in my life. Anyway I'm having a slow week for once so here's Chapter 6 comin' at ya!

April 22nd, 2004

"Mom. Mama!" Meghan's voice pierced through the fog in my brain.

I opend my eyes I was lying on my stomach on a cold, hard concrete floor. AsI

pushed myself up, a hot flash of pain seered through my left arm. Megan looked

as pale as I felt as she helped me sit up. I felt something warm running down the

side of my head. "Mom you're bleeding" Meghan's voice was shrill. I reached up

and whenI pulled my hand away it was slick with blood. "Here mom" I watched as

Mehghan reached into the pocket of her jacket and pulled out a napkin(why my

daughter keeps this stuff I have never been able to figure out, but now I was

thanking God that she did.

She gently pressed the napkin to my forehead, applying pressure. she smiled at

me "first aid courses are coming in handy." she said. I couldnt help but smile too.

"Mom do you remember anything?" Meghan's voice was soft but scared. I felt a

sharp flash of empathy for my daughter. She was only 13 but she had been through

more shit than most kids her age. Meghan had pretended not to care when kids at

school had taunted her about her dad, shje had held hersef together while watching

her mother battle cancer and now...

I shook myself and replied "Not much Meg, but Im sure it will come back to me."

Meghan looked at me, tears streaming down her cheeks. "it was Daddy. He did this Mom."

I knew then that the only person who could possibly be behind all of this WAS my

ex husband. Ryan, I knew would do whatever it took to get Meghan and also

I knew that if he had to hurt me to get her he would.
