True love

Chapter 11 | 7 years

We took a walk in the park today after school. I was with Lane and we were playing tag while mommy and daddy were talking. I overheard the sobbing.
"Taylor, we do you continue to deify me? We are supposed to speak with one voice! I have been telling you that the decision you've made is the wrong one... I know I said I was all for it but honestly I need you here."
"Why are you so controlling? I thought the purpose of having a wife was to support each other! All we have been doing is fussing at each other lately! Now come here."
He hugged mommy with a smile. Mommy leaned in closer starting to kiss him but stopped in her action. She picked up his collar of his jacket and sniffed it.
"What... What's this smell?"
"What?"
He picked up his own collar blushing and looking confused.
"I didn't. I mean I did- it's not what you think."
"No. No more. I'm done Taylor. leigh!"
She called for me and I grabbed lane's hand to make him come faster. Daddy grabbed mommy's hand and tried to hug her again.
"No! Get off of me! I can't trust you!"
"Autumn I made a mistake!"
"A mistake that will change this relationship. It was enough. I'm leaving. I'll stay at Rebecca's house. She's been having trouble too."
"But the thing is-never mind."
"Tell me, or I swear you will never see Leigh again."
"I..."
He broke down sobbing.
"If I told you.. You'll be broken even more."
"Don't tell me-Rebecca... No she wouldn't do it."
"She didn't try to... I made her..."
"Oh my god! Why? What? You need to be in jail instead of just separated from me and Leigh."
"No please! Don't leave you are my everything!"
"Well apparently not."
Mom came towards me and Lane.
"Mom? Where's daddy going?"
"On vacation for 25 years or life."
"What?"
"You'll understand when your older."
"Are you okay? You seem sad."
"I'm terrible but we have a lot of stuff to do like pack and move. You'll be spending the night with Lane for a while."
"Yay!"
Me and Lane said this at the same time. We looked at each other and laughed.
When we got home I was sent to my room to put my stuff in boxes. When we were done, which didn't take long because we didn't have a lot of stuff, we took it next door to lane's house.
"Hey! I got the call. I'm so sorry."
"No I'm sorry he did it to you."
"Don't worry I've checked and everything I'm fine."
"Does Clark know?"
"Yea.. But we've been having some difficulties."
"What do you mean?"
"He can't stop staring at this."
