All Chapters of Too Young To Want Him: Chapter 101 - Chapter 110

The nurse had just walked out of the hospital room, leaving it unusually quiet. Marcus remained close to the door, still holding his phone very tightly in his hand, and Lydia stared at him, her eyes no longer wet with innocence but with bewilderment and pain. The reality that she had just received could not find a peaceful dwelling in her heart.However, Lydia broke the silence and said, very slowly, “Daddy, I do not understand something.”Marcus looked at her, and he was already aware that this discussion was not going to be light. "What is it, sweetheart?"Lydia sat more erectly on the bed, and her small fingers grasped the blanket. Why did Ava not stay? Why not stay?... if Ava saved me... Why didn't somebody tell her how important she was?Marcus opened his mouth, and he had no words now. The burden of guilt fell on him once more."She thought..." Then he started slowly, then paused."She thought what?" Lydia asked firmly.” Did she think that we did not love her?”Marcus turned his

Ava stood outside Lydia’s hospital room, her fingers tightly gripping the strap of her bag as her heartbeat echoed loudly in her ears. The hallway felt unusually quiet, yet her thoughts were anything but calm. She had imagined this moment many times during the past few days, but now that she was truly here, fear slowly crept into her chest.She wondered if coming back had been a mistake.Riley stood beside her and gave her shoulder a gentle squeeze. “You don’t have to rush,” she said softly. “She’s been waiting, but she’ll understand if you need a minute.”Ava swallowed hard and nodded, though her eyes remained fixed on the closed door. “I’m just… nervous,” she admitted quietly. “I don’t know how she’ll look at me.”Riley smiled gently. “She looks at you the same way she always did.”Ava took a slow breath, trying to calm herself before finally lifting her hand and knocking lightly on the door.A small voice came from inside. “Come in.”The sound of Lydia’s voice made Ava’s chest tigh

Marcus was standing in the hospital passageway, utterly frozen.The words he had just heard in the room were refuted in his head."He doesn't know."“I did not want him to have the burden of understanding that my child was killed when trying to save yours.”Every line dealt him a blow on the chest. During the weeks, he had assumed Ava had decided to terminate the pregnancy without thinking of the family. He had been mad, wounded, and persuaded that she had broken his trust.But now the reality was before him like a storm that he could not get out of.Ava had not betrayed him.She had made sacrifices of it all.Marcus gradually moved away from the door, his breathing irregular, as he strove with an effort to assimilate the truth. His hands were shaking a little, and he leaned against the wall as though his legs no longer had the strength to support him."How could I not see it?" he whispered to himself.The door at the back of him opened.Marcus looked up.Lydia was there looking up at

It was later in the evening, and Marcus was outside Daniel's house on the porch, yet the night was colder. The light in the door was soft yellow and fell gently over the deserted driveway, and the quietness of the neighbourhood made the smallest sound seem bigger than normal. Marcus rubbed his hands together, though it was a pointless attempt to warm them, but his thoughts were concentrated on one thing.Ava.Ava was sitting on the side of her bed, staring at the floor, inside the house. She had not gone far since Daniel had informed her that Marcus was still out there. She kept peering at the window, despite her attempts to restrain her, every few minutes."Why is he still there?" she whispered to

Ava had finally crawled out of her room into a quiet living room. Her eyes were pink, and her face still bore the hurt that she had been bearing so long. Marcus was heard outside the house by her. She knew he was still there. Each minute he stood waiting outside increased the beating of her heart, and it increased at the same time the anger within her.This is because Marcus was standing close to the window when she entered the room. Daniel was standing a few steps apart, observing both. The atmosphere was heavy.For a few seconds, no one spoke.Marcus stared at Ava as though he was scared that she would vanish between one blink and unhappy.
