And then James was offered a full ride scholarship states and states away from our past.
We gripped onto that like a lifeline. With his young twin sisters in tow, we left that old life behind. I put my entire life on hold to help him raise those sweet girls so he could focus on his dreams and laid mine to rest.
It wasnt all bad, I am still in the medical field, I still skate and watch as many hockey games as I can
But I thought that James and I were on the same page. I thought that he loved me as much as I loved him.
One regretful night leads to these two pink lines and then he walks into my clinic with his new girlfriend on his arm. And now I feel like my life is over.
