Dear Riley,
Congratulations on getting married , I am so happy for you. I am so sorry that I could not attend. Aspen had a dance competition this weekend and I could not miss it. I promised myself my daughter would have a better life growing up than I did. She is so beautiful I wish you could see her already seventeen and ready to take on the world. Isn't it funny how the times change.
We were so in love, you and me. Though I could tell you weren't happy. Though you said you would take care of Aspen and I, I could see that you resented the fact that she wasn't really yours. You resented the the fact that I had gotten raped and knocked up, that you weren't my first. This is why, the truth finally revealed. I couldn't keep you with me and force you to stay with me when you were so unhappy. The longer I stayed the more unhappy I began to get too.
I have so many good memories with you. I hope you can have what I have with Lexi that I do with Braxton. I finally found peace in my life and I hope you and your wife have a lifetime of happiness together.
I just discovered, that Braxton and I are expecting a baby sometime in the fall. I haven't told Aspen that she is going to be a big sister yet because I don't know how she will handle it. I know I should tell her but, I think the best idea in this situation is to tell her once I get further along, just in case I have a miscarriage. I don't want to get her hopes up.
Love, Raven Brock
