CHAPTER ONE- Not happening
"You think I can just give Phoebe to you and Liam. We'll just raise them together like we planned," Steffy said looking down at Hope.
"Her name is Beth," Hope said tossing her blonde hair moving closer to Liam. Like she was claiming a prize.
"While I am happy for you and Liam things aren't the way they were before. I have to do what is best for Kelly, myself, and Douglas," Steffy said coldly.
"What are you saying?" Liam asked his brown eyes looking over at her.
"Well, I know what happen wasn't anyone fault. We were all lied too, but it hurts to much. I love her as my own. And I think what is best for me is take to Douglas back to New York, where Kelly and I will stay," Steffy said firmly.
"I am Douglas's mother now," Hope said.
"You were his stepmother. I know you and my brother are getting divorce. He is going to get the help he needs and Douglas will stay in New York with his grandmothers. That is what Caroline would want. You aren't going to be Douglas's mother," Steffy said firmly.
"And Kelly. You can't just take her away…Please Steffy," Liam pleaded.
"You left me while I was pregnant with Kelly right to Hope's arms. You got her pregnant before our child was born. Liam you put me through hell. I won't go through that again. Be with your dream family. Kelly and I will be okay. I have clarity. You are always going to let Kelly and I down. The best thing for her is to be raised in a stable home without you," Steffy said firmly.
"You can't take Kelly away from Liam. She'll be better off here and so will Douglas," Hope said shocked at hearing Steffy's words.
" I went through hell too. I thought my daughter was dead and now you are taking my other daughter away too," Liam said shocked by her words.
"Not just one child Liam. I am pregnant again. This new baby, Kelly, and Douglas will be away from here. I am moving to New York with the children, and there isn't anything you can do to stop me. Carter helped me file the paperwork. I now have sole custody of Kelly. In an envelop coming to you in the mail is a paper asking you to sign away all your legal rights. I want to raise my children on my own without you Liam," Steffy said leaving their cabin slamming the door behind.
Her stomach felt like it fluttered but she couldn't be sure. New York would be a new start for her, Kelly, and this new baby. She did not need anyone to help her raise these children. Yet on the drive home, she couldn't help but feel tears coming to her eyes.
Not from losing Liam but from losing her sweet daughter Phoebe.
