I'm okay.
Everything is okay.
Nothing bad happens.
Do not worry about me.
You don't have to care.
I can handle it myself.
I'm honest.
I'm fine.
Come on, I'm not lying.

Fine... I'm lying.

Kayleigh's POV

   I stood up. "What?" I asked, suddenly furious.

   "Kayleigh, sit down." My father reprimanded.

   I grudgingly followed his instruction.

   "Jack agreed that is the best option. Besides, if the baby is a boy, I could use an apprentice. And if the baby is a girl, your mother will know how to properly raise her." My father said.

   I bit my lip, trying not to cry. "I see Father." I said.

   My father smiled. "I knew you would understand. There will always be more babies." He said.

   I faked a smile. "I need to be going now." I said.

   "Alright." My father said, gesturing for me to show myself out.

   I opened the door, and walked out of the office building like normal.

   Eddie opened the door to the car, and I jumped in, and closed it behind me. Then, the tears started flowing out.

   "Miss Kayleigh?" Eddie asked uncertainly.

   I looked at him. "I just need to get something out of my system. Drive me to the orphanage, would you?" I asked.

   Eddie smiled and nodded, not questioning anything.

   I opened my purse and pulled out a tissue to wipe the tears from my face, then quickly re-did my makeup, for a lady would never go out in public looking like I do.
