Chapter 232

• Now that's not exactly how it went with my situation but that's what I'd always hoped it would become.
• "Well sure that's traditional, but your relationship isn't traditional. You can't expect to just fall into a traditional partnership when everything has been very...non-traditional" She doesn't say anything in response, nodding at me to continue my point. I sigh and sit forward slightly before I elaborate.
• "Poppy , you dated a married man and now you're pregnant, this isn't traditional. Nothing about this has been traditional. That's why you guys could never master the whole boyfriend girlfriend thing; because every time he went to see you he had to take off his wedding ring. Every time you talked on the phone he had to take it in another room or call you back when his wife was asleep. Everytime you went out in public together it couldn't be anywhere near where he worked or lived in case someone he knew saw you two. This isn't a traditional relationship, and it probably never will" I watch as the words sink in for her. She sits down on the edge of the coffee table in front of me, her face completely expressionless. I don't want to be harsh with her, but this is grown up shit now, she's got to face facts.
