Adam's: POV

June 12th 2019: New York

We arrived to the airport and I took our luggage out of the taxi. We walked in and terminal was full of people. I hoped no one would recognize us. The trial was very tough. I can't bear to answer more questions about my ex-husband.

I booked three tickets to London without problems. Then we went to a store and looked around. Both newspapers and gossip magazines wrote about me and David. A few hours later we were on the plane to start a new life.

"Are we free now dad?" asked Emily

"Are we free now dad?" asked Emily. "I never thought this day would come." I said. "It feels good." replied Eric. I hugged my children and cried softly. "He was sentenced to life in prison, he can't hurt us anymore." I said. Emily hugged her Stitch doll, she was still scared.

"I love you and Eric with all my heart, I don't let anybody hurt you two." I said. "We love you too dad." she replied and I smiled. "Try get some rest, it has been a long day." I said. "Good night." replied Emily and fell asleep. "Good night honey." I whispered.

We arrived in a rainy and overcast London. I drove to our new house and parked the car outside. "Well, it's not much but it's home." I said. "I think it's brilliant." replied Eric. "It's beautiful." said Emily. Thanks guys." I replied with a smile on my face.

I unlocked the door to our house and walked in. I dropped my bags on the floor and sighed tired. This week has been a hell. I feel completely exhausted. I didn't think it would be so difficult to move. But this was the best decision for us.

"I think we'll be fine here." said Eric. "Yeah." I replied. "I can't believe we live in London now." said Emily happily. I chuckled softly at her. "Who wants pizza?" I asked. "Me." said both Emily and Eric.
