Chapter 63: 30 Seconds Away

(Maya's POV )

Spending all this time with Aspen made me realize she wasn't my tiny little girl anymore, she was my growing girl. She was learning more and more each day and I couldn't express how proud I was to be her mom.

"Any seziures?" Liam asked when he came home for lunch. "One this morning, " I sighed. "How is she feeling?" He asked me. "I'm okay, daddy," Aspen told him.  She set down her crayon and looked up. "Do you feel sick?" He asked her. "No," she sighed. "Liam, please just give it a rest," I sighed. "Where are you parents?" He asked.  "They have are day planned for the two of them," I explained.

"I get to spend the day with mommy!" Aspen cheered.  I smiled. Ever since I got my new job I haven't been able to spend much quality time with her, and it broke my heart.  Aspen was my life, and not spending time with her was rough. "You are lucky!" Liam explained. Aspen just laughed and held up the picture she was drawing.

" It's One Direction family!" She cried. The picture brought tears to mine and Liam's eyes. "It's wonderful!" I cried.   Everyone was in the picture and Harry has a bow in his hair. "Why does Uncle Harry have a bow?" I asked her. "Because he wore mine," she told me. "So silly," I laughed. I looked at Liam who was crying. "Aspen, go wash up for lunch," I told her. I waited for her to leave and then turn to Liam.

"What's wrong?" I asked him. "Nothing, why?" He asked mr. "Cause I know you and something is bothering you," I told him.

"I never thought Aspen would have to go through something as terrible," he sighed. "Lee, she's a strong little girl, she will get through it," I said as I hugged him. He didn't say anything he just hugged me back. I heard him sniffle trying to hide the tears. "Don't cry babe," I whispered. "I already made her hurt once I don't want her to hurt anymore," he cried.

One bubble. Two bubble. Three bubble. I loved bubbles. Uncle Harry even got me my own bubble maker. You flip a switch and bubbles fly out. I washed my hands and my face. Mommy said to clean up so we could eat lunch, even though I didn't want to eat lunch. I would do it for mommy. 

I'm not used to having daddy home. It's not the same as it used to be. I liked his doctors, they had cupcakes with sprinkles. Mommy says daddy is home for good so we can be a family again, but we are a family already. I don't get it. I think Daddy made me sick. I think he did it to me. I can't tell anyone that though. They would be mad. I wish Uncle Harry was my daddy, he cares more than Daddy does.

"Harry said he was going to stop by later," I told Liam as I set down my phone. "Yeah, he said he had something for us," he sighed. "Liam! Aspen does not like Harry more than you!" I cried. That's all he has thought about for the past two months and honeslty it drove me insane.
