The weekend was amazing spending time with the girls and it was extremely heartwarming as I watched them bond with Malia as she grew attached to each one individually.

Aria,Emily and Spencer decided to take 3 weeks absence to make up for lost time. As much as I protested against them taking a break from college they reassured me that they would work hard and just hand in assignments online to meet deadlines. It took a lot of convincing on their part to get me to drop the subject and just accept it.

Today Malia was 3 months old,and my dreadful day to finally step out onto the streets of Rosewood to go get her checked by her new pediatrician at the hospital. To say that I was nervous was a huge understatement. I was freaking out. My mom reassured me that I would be fine and that I had nothing to be ashamed of since I didn't get rid of my problems I just dealt with it like a responsible adult,not saying that Malia was a problem,actually she made my world 3/4 whole.

I got her dressed and headed to the Hospital. By the time we arrived she was asleep in her stroller. The hospital was kinda busy for a normal monday morning. So I waited a good 15 minutes before I could go up to the front desk and ask for an available appointment for the local pediatrician. Just as I was done and the nurse told me to take a seat I'll be seen in the next 10 minutes I heard my name being called and I immediately froze.

I turned around slowly bracing myself for the face I would be caught staring at like I was caught red handed back when Detc. Wilden came knocking at my door because of shop lifting days.

I turned around to be faced by my worst foe.

"Hanna,I thought that was u"

"Hi Kate,how are u?" I asked pretentiously.

"Good,I work here as an intern during my breaks,deciding to become a doctor took a lot of guts for me to fully complete all the tortuous studying but I thought 'hell it couldn't help getting a lil practice'" she finished off promoting herself.

After I just simply nodded and we were in silence for a good two minutes she spoke again.

"So what brings u here? I heard u left Rosewood. Well I see u're back,everything okay with ur health?"

Just as I was going to reply Malia let out a cry and I had to see to her. Generally she was a good baby but lately she just had to force mommy into spilling the truth out and stop running from it.

I turned around and picked her up from her stroller. Kate who obviously didn't notice it behind me now had bulging eyes as she saw me see to the precious baby in my arms.

"Ssssshhhhhh baby girl,I'm here." I calmed Malia down.

"Wait- she's urs?"

"Yes she is"

"When did this happen? Why doesn't Tom know about this?"

Just as I was going to tell her the nurse tapped me on the shoulder.

"Ms. Marin? Dr. Jones is ready for u"

"Thank u,nice running into u Kate,see u around." I kindly excused myself and took the stroller into the doctors office.

After Malia had her shots done she was a little cranky,so we headed straight home so that she was fed and put down for her nap. I managed to clear the house up and got to watch some tv when I heard two cars pulling up,one was my moms but I didn't recognize the other one until the driver got out.

It was my DAD.

He looked fumed with anger and disgust and was glaring at my mother as she walked towards the front door. I knew I had to brace myself for a whole lot of yelling.

They barged in,me still on the couch,didn't move an inch. They started whisper-yelling until I cleared my throat to make my presence known.

"You guys can stop arguing,I'm in here. If u have something to discuss involving me don't hide and do it secretively." I was totally not in the mood for this bullshit.

I had it up to here with my Dad,if u can even call him that,like he deserves the title. He would only care about me when I either was in trouble or mocking and shaming the Marin name. So whatever he was about to say was sure going to make me lose my cool and spill all the anger I had towards him for the last 5 years ever since he left.

"Oh Hi sweetie" my mom greeted me.

"Don't 'Hi sweetie' her" my dad began is ranting.

"Tom-" my mother warned him.

"No Ashley...Hanna? What the hell?! I have to find out by Kate that I'm a grandfather?!" Anger raised in his voice.

"I knew she would tell u as soon as she could,always stirring up some trouble to keep her entertained"

"Well,it wouldve been nice hearing this from my daughter herself."

"Well we can't always get what we want its called life." I was beginning to get irritated and couldn't stand the constant accusatory tone he was giving me.

"I'm ur father,Hanna,u thought I shouldn't have known about u being pregnant and having a child?"

That was it,the 'I'm ur father' bit took the cake. The last straw and that blew my mind that he used that line on me. My face immediately changed to a new level of anger and my mother stood and watched my entire demeanor change with that one line of utter bullshit come out of my 'fathers' mouth.

And I snapped. "Look DAD,I don't need to tell u what's happening in my life I'm not supposed to tell u,those are things u have to do. U aren't my boss that I have to check in with to tell him how my process was keeping up after a tiring week of work. U only want to be a dad or what was the term u used 'father' when it suites u. Yes I had a beautiful daughter and she's totally precious. But I didn't feel I needed to tell u that I was becoming a mom. U weren't there for me through all the other hard life lessons I endured during my teenage years,where were u then? Huh? When my best friend went missing? When I was run over by a car? When my best friend turned out to be my tormentor? When my boyfriend got shot? When I needed u to send me to college? When I was locked up because of false accusations? When I was kidnapped? I WAS FREAKING KIDNAPPED for crying out loud! U weren't there for any of those tough times. And let me guess u aren't here to congratulate me are u? U're here to fix a 'problem' right? Like when I totaled Seans car or was arrested for shoplifting or the time everyone called us liars because of Ian and I was on the headlines. U came to make sure the family name was protected right? Well there's no need for that. I don't care about ur family freaking name,I'll change it if I'm such an embarrassment so there u have it. Don't let the door knock u on the ass as u leave." With that he stood flawed at my outburst and I just swiftly walked past him and went to check on the only thing that gave me joy,the face of my little angel.
