"I don't want my children to think that their mother is a whore... Like how they made me think about my mother," she said "Like how you made me think about my mother."
That didn't seem like a good idea.
Maybe I should stop them?
"We shouldn't do this," I said.
"Yes, we should." Riley said, "She deserves this."
"No, but this is bullying," I said.
"No, it's not." Jacob said, "Our Mom cries everyday because of her! She deserves this!"
I wasn't really sure...
But it was too late for me to react!
Everyone ganged up against her, and started singing, "Happy birthday to the daughter of a whore!"
"My Mom is not a whore!" She shouted, "She's not a whore!"
"Yes, she is!" Jacob said, "Our Dad was married to our Mom when they had an affair. She is a whore!"
"She is not!" She shouted.
I rubbed my face.
Was there anybody out there who had fucked this worse than me?
"Look Bella..." I said, "I'm extremely ashamed of my past actions."
She didn't say anything.
"I know there were plenty of times where I should have reacted, but I didn't," I said, "I'm really ashamed, and extremely sorry. I'd change a lot of things if given a chance. I know I have fucked up really badly... But please, please... Believe me! I'm really sorry for everything."
"But I don't want to go through any of that again," she said, "And I don't care if you're sorry for it or not. I just... All those memories flashed across my mind today, and I don't think I would want to have any kind of relationship with anyone from the most horrible period of my life."
"Bella, please..." I said.
"We need to end this," she said, "I don't see any reason to continue this."
