Chapter 13

Josh pov.

I think we better sit down and talk. It's not easy to talk about this but you see the reason it's just me and Emma tonight it's beacuse we only got each other in this lonesome world.

My mom Emma passed away when my sister was just 3 years old my sisters has my mom's name she's a splitting image of her. When my mom was pregnant for Lisa the doctor told my dad Nathaniel that it will be very risky that either he will lose mom or lose the child and migth even lose both of them. My dad couldn't live without my mom she was his life. So he said he wanted to save her at any cost. Yet in God's mercy both my sister and mom made it out safe.

Everything was fine and we were a happy family until mom developed cancer. It devasted my dad causs after my mom gave brith her body was weak and she was getting alot of health complications. Until it was too late I remembered her in that hospital bed holding my hand asking me to promise her that I will never leave Lisa that I will never make her miss a mother's love. She asked me to always be there for Lee. She kissed both of us and put my sisters hands in mine before leaving us for good.

My dad was devasted he could not Handel the absence of my mother. He developed a drinking habits and gambling he almost ran the compamy to the ground so I stepped in and to take charge at a very young age. I had to run a business take care of the house and my bby sister.

Lee had it tough ever since then my dad should lock up in her room she wasn't allowed to go out. He used to swear her and curse her any chance he could get

One day I was delayed in an office meeting and came home to a drunk father hitting my sister speaking to her harshly. He drilled it in her head that she was the reason our mom is no more. So I stepped in and stopped all of it.

Lee was about 10 when our father passed away. He passed away on our moms brithday 5 October in a car crush due to drunk driving. Since then it's just been us too I worked hard to bring my sister up the way she is today. So hence why we came alone today.

I never knew I was almost crying until Miranda took me in a hug and Liam.

Well Josh it's oki I'm so sorry for your loss. I'm. Glad to say you a fine young man. You were so young but you strived for your sisters and yours future.

Yes dear Liam is right you have raised her well. And you not alone well you are dating my daughter and I couldn't have more children after her so now I'm. Blessed to have 3

Thank you both for understanding thanks so much. Uhmm liam I love your daughter I would treat with nothing but love and respect I never loved any girl up till now besides shanel. If I was with girl it was to make Lee happy but I promise I will take good care of her.

Finshed setting the table to eat and I'm starved shanel is waiting can we eat now the food smells are gona to kill me if I wait any longer.

Dinner was good all this time I held shanels hand under the table with all those sweet looks from her dame I was hard for her. The way I love you rolled of her lips made me ache to have her now.

I snapped out of my thoughts when Lisa started crying next to Miranda. All I herd was Miranda saying now she's her daughter to. I hope Lee is oki.

Lisapov

I got a call from emillio yes that ass while Josh was talking he just pissed me to the max. He acts if nothing happened and wants me back. How can he do such. With the little selfesstem I have left I did the one thing I needed to do i blocked him from everything black listed his no ghosted him. I decided I was done. I over herd the convo my brother was talking to shanels parents and it made my heart shatter in a million pieces. I was a mess but showed not a trace of it.

I took it as my queue to call everyone to eat as the table was set. Seeing Josh all. Lovely dovely on shanel made me beem with joy. Unfortunately I won't have that love. I complimented Miranda on the scrumptious food she made all it took was for her to say I was her daughter to now for me to be a sobbing mess.

I saw Josh looking at me and rushing to my side asking me if I'm okk. Miranda had me close to her hugging me. As if she knew that I needed a mother's hug right now. I was too numb to even speak.

Lee bby princess are you oki talk to me princess I'm right here what happened. Lee stop crying you know I can't stand you shedding tears.

I saw him glance at my phone I sill had the call log since I was sill taking everything of him out of my phone. I saw the way shanel had to hold him back as his hands were balled in a fist. I saw anger and pain in his eyes I decided to stop myself crying a river.
