Chapter 89

  I try to wipe my tears off my cheeks as I stare at my picture with Ben and Landon over my dresser.

  “Hugo's not gonna take Ben away from you, he promised me that he won't and I won't let him.” Landon adds. “I know him and he's not gonna do that to you.”

  I exhale heavily as I wipe my tears from my cheeks and tried to smile as I watch Ben’s smile on the photo and Landon’s smile too. "I just want you here with me right now." I whimper softly.

  "I'm so sorry for not being around with you.” He says sadly. “I should have been there. I am so sorry. Don’t worry, I'll book a flight to New York right now. I'm coming for you love." He tells me and having Landon is already reassuring.

  I slightly smile. “Okay. Thank you Landon.”

  "Have you tried talking to Ben about Hugo?" Landon asks.

  I shake my head as I answer, "Not yet. I can't seem to.... Find the right words on how to say it to a six year old." I laugh humorlessly as my tears kept falling.
