00:28palms this was supposed to be our first trip since i lost our baby a year ago he claimed it
00:33was a top
00:33level military emergency i almost would have believed it if my dad weren't a major general
00:37if something serious had happened my dad would have known first walker he's just a colonel command
00:41wouldn't call him before my dad yeah at first i thought maybe i'd gotten it wrong maybe he hadn't
00:45lied same turn same gate same road back to base for a second i thought he really had told me
00:49the truth
00:49but my gut said otherwise i knew he was hiding something we stopped outside the officer's
00:54housing pound inside the whole place was set up for a party string lights hung over the lawn
00:57folding tables ran across the yard the air was thick with cigarette smoke beer and barbecue
01:01i frowned what the hell was this i got out of the car what's going on ma'am you didn't

01:15past
01:16him and ran in then i saw him walker stood there with his arm around a young woman she was
01:21tucked
01:21against his side cheeks pink his hand rested gently on her stomach then she looked up my blood ran
01:27cold it was lily the girl we saved on that mountain road a year ago i still remember that night

01:43up the army doctor
01:44told me i'd lost the baby and that i might never be able to have enough it's all my fault
01:48i'm so sorry
01:49lily dropped to her knees beside my bed sobbing and blaming herself for everything after that
01:53always quiet always look guilty then one day walker said it like it was nothing let her stay
01:57you need someone to look after you and just like that lily stayed on base what i never saw coming
02:01was this walker sleeping with her getting her pregnant and letting the world think she was his
02:05wife congratulations colonel hale a son on the way when walker saw her like that his eyes softened
02:10then like he couldn't help himself he leaned down and kissed her it was a long kiss when it ended
02:15his
02:15thumb lingered at the corner of her mouth then he went still across the noise in the crowd he saw
02:20me
02:21standing at the front gate mrs hale you must be thrilled a grandson coming and a sweet girl like
02:26this carrying him you're a lucky woman guess tonight we finally get to meet colonel hale's wife even his
02:30hard-faced mother diane was smiling in a way she never had with me walker looked like he was off
02:33of the world and lily the more they praised her the more shy she acted pink cheeks downcast eyes she
02:37just kept slinging closer and closer into walker he saw me panic flashed across his face he instinctively
02:42pushed lily away my i walked straight toward him slap before he could finish my name i slapped him
02:48hard across the face this is your so-called base emergency mission the entire party went dead
02:52silent lily reacted first screaming and rushing to walker's side caressing his face as if he were
02:57the victim maya how dare you slap the blow sent her stumbling back and walker rushed to hold her up
03:04i was about to speak when a violent force threw me to the ground carter you bitch my son doesn't
03:10want

03:20everywhere people yelled insults and some were already calling for the military police to drag
03:24me emboldened by the crowd lily flashed me a triumphant smile but in the blink of an eye that
03:28snug look was gone her eyes filled with tears and her voice turned weak and trembling why can't you just
03:33leave us alone maya i know you're divorced you you can't have walker's children but he's always
03:37wanted a son but if it makes you feel better you can still visit him when the baby's born
03:42maya was shaking so hard she could barely breathe she wanted to ask him when the hell they got divorced
03:49she wanted to ask him loosen rangers but he cut her off well under hard damon that's enough he
03:56shoved lily behind him like she was the one worth protecting his jaw tightened and a vein stood out at
04:03his temple maya are you ever going to stop you couldn't give me a child and i still tried to

04:25nothing more we can do back when the doctor said she might never have children again walker's mother
04:29screamed and begged him to leave her but walker said no he held her and told her he loved her
04:34he
04:34told her it didn't matter whether she could give him children he told her he would never divorce her
04:38not in this lifetime what a joke every word had been a lie maya slowly pushed herself off the ground

14:32father
14:33daughter Diane who'd cursed me minutes ago now fond over my father and hurried over come now we're
14:43family just a little misunderstanding my father's boot slammed down on the marriage certificate on the
14:58ground

15:05every word slammed into Walker making him shake
15:09there are you here

15:15but my father cut him off with a sharp gesture
15:20investigate this get someone from the county clerk's office here immediately now
15:35she finally understands
15:44Walker what do we do
15:53waiting

16:08as if holding the whole world
16:20dad
16:22dad
16:22i'm sorry
16:38she knew that from this moment on
16:41she would never have to face it alone again
16:45and the reckoning
17:12the truth is never buried
17:21he didn't need to say a word
17:23because every second that followed would make Walker wish he were dead
17:29within 10 minutes the truth came out
17:31Walker used his position to make the county clerk record his marriage to Lily
17:34even though we hadn't filed for divorce yet
17:36good
17:37very good Hale
17:38Walker shook so hard he could barely stand
17:40he looked ready to beg
17:41but no words came out
17:43he just
17:45take him
17:46soldiers ripped the insignia off Walker's uniform on the spot
17:49minutes earlier he'd swaggered like he owned
17:54diane threw herself forward to beg for him
17:58but an MP shoved her aside roughly
18:01she crashed
18:02she crashed to the ground and wailed
18:06everyone went quiet
18:07the loudest shouters now hid in the corners
18:10trembling in fear
18:11afraid dad would go after them next
18:14and that their husbands would also be taken away
18:16Lily sat there clutching her stomach
18:19pale as a ghost
18:21come on sweetheart
18:24dad's taking you home
18:28he wiped the blood from my face
18:31his jaw tightened
18:32instantly
18:34in the rearview mirror I took one last look at the crowd at the gate
18:38they looked stunned
18:40like they still couldn't process what had happened
18:44they grew smaller and smaller until they vanished
18:47and I finally looked away
18:49does it still hurt
18:51I'd been sure he'd blame me
18:53for not listening to him
18:55for insisting on marrying Walker
18:57for dragging myself into this nightmare
19:00but he didn't
19:01he just looked at me
19:03gentle and heartbroken
19:05I hung my head and bit my lip
19:09the silence in the car was suffocating
19:15dad
19:18I'm sorry
19:20in that moment
19:21all the pain I'd held back burst out
19:24I hung my head
19:25to hide it
19:27no
19:29it doesn't hurt anymore
19:32you've been through enough
19:34cry if you want to
19:35back then
19:36we were both wrong
19:37it wasn't all your fault
19:38maybe if I hadn't pushed you so hard
19:41you wouldn't have been so set on marrying him
19:43maybe you wouldn't have left home
19:44I wouldn't have lost you for all those years
19:47if I'd been there for you
19:48that bastard never would have dared treat you like this
19:51I sniffed hard
19:53for the first time
19:54I realized how stupid I'd been
19:57I'd thrown away a father as gentle and loving as him
20:00for a man like Walker
20:05come on sweetheart
20:06let's go home
20:07mom's waiting for you
20:17this time
20:18she was finally going home
20:32she finally let go of all the pretense and strength
20:45he remembered her as a little girl
20:47ponytail bouncing
20:48laughing as she ran into his arms
20:55dad
20:57I'm sorry
20:58I should have listened to you
21:04silly child
21:18mom never stopped waiting for her
21:20never
21:27dawn was coming
21:28so was hers
21:30everything would be okay
21:31because she finally knew
21:34she wasn't alone
21:38the car rolled slowly up the driveway
21:40before it stopped
21:42mom pushed open the front door
21:44and hurried out
21:44still wearing her apron
21:46holding a spatula
21:48clearly running straight from the kitchen
21:51my baby
21:52who did this
22:04let's get inside first
22:06the table was covered with my favorite food
22:08the smell of roast meat and gravy filled the house
22:10mom tried not to look at my injuries
22:12but she couldn't help it
22:13her eyes kept drifting back
22:15and each time she looked more heartbroken
22:17only two years
22:18only two years
22:18and he's done this to you
22:19that bastard
22:21I ate in silence
22:22unable to say a word
22:25leave him
22:26you have to leave him
22:28if I'd known he'd hurt you like this
22:30I would have stopped that wedding
22:32no matter what
22:34it's handled
22:35and just like that
22:36the three of us
22:37found our way back to each other
22:40we sat and talked
22:41trying to make up for the lost years
22:51suddenly
22:51a loud miserable wail
22:53came from outside
22:55Maya

26:01his eyes were bloodshot
26:03unfocused
26:04like he hadn't slept in weeks
26:05his fingers curled and uncurled
26:08trembling
26:11at first he tried to fight

27:10I pulled away
27:11and looked her
27:12straight in the eye

27:14is above
27:15the law
27:16you heartless bitch

27:22I said nothing
27:23I just turned
27:24and walked out
27:26dad followed me
27:27out of the courthouse
27:28outside
27:29what now
27:32I took a deep breath
27:33and looked up
27:34at the sky
27:35clear
27:36bright blue
27:37for the first time
27:38in a long time
27:39I felt like
27:40I could really breathe
27:41I want to do something
27:42that actually matters
27:43something real
27:44I want to help people
27:45that's my daughter
27:46dad smiled proudly
27:47in college
27:48I'd majored in medicine
27:49I dreamed of being a doctor
27:50then I met Walker
27:51and I let that dream go
27:53now I finally had a chance
27:54to pick it back up
27:55to hold a scalpel again
27:56after that
27:57life moved on
27:58I worked at a small local clinic
27:59my days were busy and simple
28:01and the worst of my past
28:02slowly faded
28:02then Rue one day
28:03I heard his name a Hale
28:04Walker Hale
28:05I heard his family
28:06brought him up
28:07while we were talking
28:07total mess
28:08my hand paused
28:09I didn't say anything
28:10just listen
28:11it turned out
28:12that the second Walker fell
28:13Lily dumped him
28:14got rid of the baby
28:15and hooked up
28:15with another colonel
28:16right away
28:17Diane flew into a rage
28:18and attacked Lily
28:19leaving her half paralyzed
28:21and on a ventilator
28:22in hospital
28:22Diane was arrested
28:24and reunited with her son
28:25in prison
28:26God I heard
28:27she may never wake up
28:32I was quiet
28:33for a moment
28:33then closed
28:34the chart in my hands
28:39room 3 needs a dressing change
28:41Dr. Carter
28:42a nurse gently nudged me
28:44sounding worried
28:46I smiled
28:48when I stepped out of the ward
28:50I saw the sky had cleared
28:53after days of gray
28:54the sun was shining
28:57Dr. Carter
28:58the director's looking for you
28:59a nurse called
29:01from the end of the hall

29:36the form back
29:43when I walked out
29:44of the office
29:45sunlight hit my face
29:49somewhere in the distance
29:50I heard kids laughing
