Chapter 1 A MOTHERS SECRETE

In a beautiful radiant city of Irvine California, there lived beautiful girl named Emma ,who was abandoned by her parents after divorce , She grew up in the orphanage passing through difficulties with no one to carter for her . Emma grew up to be a beautiful and compassionate woman .Her love and dedication to others is something people admired her for . She was committed to her self and her work after leaving the orphanage at the age with some of her friends . She decided to work very hard for herself with the support of her friends whom she met at the orphanage.

Her goodness always brings favor to her but one thing that isn't favourable to her was her relationship with men. She always fell inlove with men who doest know her value.

So one day she decided to end every love affairs only to find out monthly later that she was pregnant from her past relationship and this was the hardest stroke she faced in her life thinking of keeping the baby or choosing herself first.

She sat on the edge of her bed, staring blankly at the wall as the words on the pregnancy test taunted her. "Pregnant." The single word seemed to mock her, a harsh reminder of the chaos she'd created.

She felt like she was drowning in her own mistakes. The addiction, the toxic relationships, the lost opportunities – it all swirled together in a toxic stew that threatened to consume her.

Her mind wandered back to her childhood, to the memories she'd rather forget. The neglect, the abandonment, the constant feeling of not being enough. She'd grown up thinking she was unworthy, that she didn't deserve love or happiness.

As she gazed at the test, she felt the weight of her past bearing down on her. She thought about the baby growing inside her, a tiny human who deserved a chance at life. But could she provide that chance? Could she be the mother she never had?

The questions swirled in her head like a maelstrom, pulling her under with their intensity. She felt like she was staring into the abyss, with no safety net to catch her if she fell.

Her mind wandered back to her childhood, to the memories she'd tried to bury. She remembered the small, neglected old orphanage, the sound of the orphanage matrons angry voice, and the feeling of being invisible.

Her mother, Sarah, who abandoned her, struggling with her own demons. Emma's father had left when she was young, and Sarah had turned to substances to cope with the pain. Emma had grown up feeling like she was walking on eggshells, never felt the love of her parents .

As she sat on the bed, her thoughts drifted to specific moments from her childhood. She remembered the time she'd come home from school, hungry and tired, only to find the cupboards bare and her mother passed out on the couch. She'd had to fend for herself, scrounging for scraps in the kitchen, feeling like a tiny adult shouldering the weight of her own survival.

The memories stung, but Emma couldn't look away. She recalled the arguments, the shouting matches, and the tears. Her mother's words still echoed in her mind: "You're just like your father." The implication was clear: Emma was flawed, unworthy, and destined for failure.

As she grew older, she had rebelled against her mother's expectations. She'd acted out, seeking attention and validation in all the wrong places. The relationships she'd formed had been toxic, with partners who'd taken advantage of her vulnerabilities.

Her addiction had started as a way to cope with the pain, but it had quickly spiralled out of control. She'd lost count of the number of times she'd promised herself she'd quit, only to fall back into the familiar pattern of substance abuse.

The pregnancy test on the bedside table seemed to mock her, a reminder of her failures. She felt like she was staring at a reflection of her own inadequacies, a symbol of the chaos she'd created.

As she sat there, frozen in self-doubt, she wondered if she had the strength to change. Could she break free from the patterns of her past and forge a new path? Or would she continue to repeat the mistakes of her childhood, doomed to relive the same cycles of pain and regret?

Her thoughts drifted back to her past relationships, particularly the toxic ones that had left her feeling drained and vulnerable. She thought about felix, her ex-partner who had controlled and manipulated her, making her feel like she was walking on eggshells.

As she reflected on those experiences, she realized that she had been repeating patterns of self-doubt and people-pleasing. She wondered if she was strong enough to break free from those patterns and forge a new path.

The phone rang, breaking the silence. It was Rachel, her friend who had always been a source of support and encouragement.

"Hey, Em, how are you?" Rachel asked, her voice warm and gentle.

She took a deep breath and shared her news, telling Rachel about the pregnancy and her fears about being a mother. Rachel listened attentively, offering words of comfort and guidance.

"I know this is a tough decision, Em," Rachel said. "But you're not alone. I'm here for you, and we'll figure this out together."

She felt a weight lift off her shoulders as she talked to Rachel. For the first time in a long while, she felt like she had someone in her corner, someone who believed in her.

As they talked, Emma realized that she had a choice to make. She could let her past define her, or she could use it as a catalyst for growth and change.

She felt a sense of relief wash over her as she hung up the phone with Rachel. For the first time in weeks, she felt like she wasn't alone in this journey. Rachel's words of encouragement and support had given her a glimmer of hope.

As she walked around her apartment, Emma noticed the small things that had been weighing her down. The clutter, the mess, the reminders of her past mistakes. She felt a sudden urge to clean and organize, to create a sense of order and control in her life.

With newfound determination, she started tidying up her apartment. She threw away old clothes, dusted off shelves, and scrubbed the kitchen until it sparkled. As she worked, she felt a sense of clarity and purpose that she hadn't felt in a long time.

As the sun began to set, Emma took a step back and surveyed her newly organized space. It was far from perfect, but it felt like a start. She felt like she was taking control of her life, one small step at a time.

The doorbell rang, and her heart skipped a beat. It was Rachel, arriving with a care package and a listening ear. She smiled, feeling grateful for her friend's presence in her life.

"Hey, Em," Rachel said, handing her a bag of groceries and a warm smile. "I brought some food and supplies. Let's get you settled in and talk about what's next."

She felt a sense of gratitude wash over her. With Rachel by her side, she felt like she could face whatever came next.
