"I will try my hardest, aunt Kate". After replying, Anna hung up. She waited for Beth to get out of the car, watching as she did so. Anna wanted to run. She really did wanted to run away. If only she'd have a little chance to escape from here,but wouldn't that be more embarrassing?
Noah had not read or responded to her text which had her wondering what was wrong. He usually doesn't waste any time to respond to her no matter how busy he is.
"Come Anna, we can't stay in the car all day." Beth called for her and she bit her lips. Oh today's going to be the worst day for her. She didn't know if she should come clean to her sister in law or do it before the entire family. Yes they'll be mad at her, but she'll have to blame her silly husband more.
Noah is solely responsible for the lies and deciet. After all, it was his idea in the first place. She was willing to tell them the truth, but he refused, and now he is not here to defend her or stand up for her.
