Chapter 17

• *BAILEY*
• Everything I ever wanted in life could be written down on just a single piece of paper; I wanted to be the girl that got the best man, the one with the best job, the latest car or phone on the market, it wasn’t enough to be alive. I wanted to be both alive and seen, to be the girl that everyone would remain talking about once I left the room.
• And of course I worked towards that and I achieved most of it but along the way I fell in love, in the most stupid of ways; given a choice two years ago I would I have gone back to my old life. Asked my sister to come and play wifey to her cheating husband but then a child came along. Karl is the most beautiful baby I have laid eyes on and there is something about having a child that makes you grow in ways you never thought you would.
