NORMANI

Just when I was ready to settle down with Ricardo, I could already picture us married, him moving to California, literally living each day like there wasn’t another, and fate had to fuck me up again. So much had happened in these past few months and it was insane. The period the kids and I returned to California from Puerto Rico, Ricardo had slept with a childhood friend of his and had knocked her up which according to him he wasn’t aware of. So while he was here visiting, shortly after the twins party, he got an emergency call from home. The summary was he had to marry her because she wasn’t going to give birth outside of wedlock. It was fucked up because I was already starting to develop strong feelings for him. I cried for several days and he did too. He never wanted to hurt me and I got it, after all, it was I who told him to move on when I was leaving.
