colored walls gave the restaurant a murky atmosphere, which acted as a cloak for her. After a minute or two passed, Ayana noticed a woman at the table next to Atticus. Where he was sitting, he had full view of the woman.
    The woman got up and sat at the table with Atticus. She passed him a note and smiled. He opened and read it. Ayana keep observing in amazement. Atticus smiled and shoved the note in the inside of his suit pocket. Her heart felt as if it was going to fall out of her chest. Gasping for breath, she ran out the door to her car and didn’t look back.
    Hurrying to her car, she jumped in and sped off before she could be noticed. After she cleared the scene, she pulled over to assemble her emotions.
    No! I don’t think so. Ayana Simmons, no more crying. You have to be strong now for your unborn baby. You’re still in a sensitive trimester and need to take it easy from now on. You’re in control and no one else.”
    It was time to let go and move on. She decided to move back to the States with her mother. Hating the idea of her mother being a part of her life, but knowing there weren’t any other options available as she knew she was going to need someone when her due date got closer.
    Feeling drained and hopeless, she gathered her things from Tess’s and stopped by to pick her mother up. When she entered the house, her mother stood in the doorway of the living room quietly. Her mother ran to her side, suddenly displaying a sudden interest in her well-being.
    Through gritted teeth, Ayana snarled at her mother and made her demands known. “Don’t! Don’t say a word to me, Mother! I can’t take anything else right now.”
    I can’t believe this. This is all bullshit.
    “Alright, darling. I’ll do whatever you say. I’m really sorry, babe. Maybe I can go talk to him,” her mother replied nervously.
    “No! Haven’t you done enough! I don’t want you to do a damn thing, Mother! There’s nothing here for me anymore. Pack your things, you got what you wanted. I’m going home with you to have my baby.”
    Her mother packed quickly. She then tried to make amends by helping Ayana and carrying her bags.
    “I promise I won’t say a word to you all the way home unless you speak to me. I swear it to you. But I just want to say I’m truly, truly sorry for my actions, darling.”
    Ayana suspected that her father must have really chewed her mother out. He was the only one who could bring her under some kind of control. She drove to the airport with her mother and called Tess on her cell.
    “Tess! Hey. I called to say goodbye. I’m leaving with my mother to go back to the States. There’s nothing here for me. I need some time to think and heal. I’m a wreck right now.”
    Tess became very concerned.
    “No! Cousin, I don’t think you’re thinking straight right now. I understand you’re in a lot of pain and confused about what to do. Come talk to me first. You need to talk to Atticus.”
    Ayana paused to gather her strength. “No I don’t. Atticus and I were going to meet a couple of hours ago, but when I got to the place we were to meet, I realized that this is just not meant to be.”
    Tess wept a little over the phone. “I don’t want you to leave. Aw, Cousin, I’m going to miss you!”
    “And don’t forget your promise, Tess! Do not share my secret with anyone, especially the Escobar family! I’ll call you when we get in and settle down. Goodbye, Tess, love you.”
    “I love you too, Cousin,” Tess responded sniffing.

Chapter Five
    Two months had passed since Atticus had seen Ayana. He was longing for her and still wondering why she stood him up if she really loved him the way she said she did. He thought she just decided not to pursue their relationship, but to run to the arms of Josh, who was a better suitor for her according to her mother. Atticus was spending the Thanksgiving holiday with Tess and August.
    He sat out on the patio and watched Tess and August’s interactions with each
