Chapter Text

Hi, I'm Evan. I'm 24. I have 2 kids, a 1-year-old, Vango and a 5-year-old, Kaitlyn. I'm a single father working 3 jobs every day.You're probably wondering where the mom is, don’t worry, I am too. One day she was here; the next day she wasn't. She went completely missing, only leaving a note that read:

“Dear Evan,I didn't want to do this, but I felt as if I had to. I am unhappy and just want to be myself again. I thought this was what I wanted all my life, and I only realized it wasn't once it was too late. I wish this could have turned out differently. I will love you forever and will think about you and the kids every day. I'm so sorry it had to end this way.

Sincerely, Zoe”

It hurt a lot seeing that she was the love of my life for 8 years. We planned our whole future together just for it to be ripped to shreds. I try not to think about it too much.She left shortly after our youngest child was born, which was completely unexpected.She was so excited to have another baby on the way, although it was probably all an act.

The kids and I have been getting by, for the most part. I have to have my mom over a lot to watch them while I'm at work.My dream was to go to college and get a well-paying job in a field I enjoy, but I couldn't afford it, and none of the scholarships ever worked out.

Enough with that, time for some good news: Kaitlyn starts kindergarten tomorrow! I took off work to make sure I'd be able to drop her off and pick her up.

I wouldn't want to miss that special parenting moment.
