Chapter 15 If Only

• Ethan's POV
• Yesterday, I had seen Chloe the happiest since she and Ariana came to live with me. I could easily tell that she and her best friend had a very strong bond, and she had her every happy. I found myself wishing I could do the same for her. She wasn't really sad, but I knew that she was burdened and constantly scared because of our daughter. I was scared too, but Chloe had been with her all her life, and she had seen the worst of everything.
• I had an important meeting today at work, but I kept getting lost, thinking of her. I remembered our kiss and how she had reacted to it. She would not talk to me, unless it was necessary, and it was usually because of Ariana.
