It was a tough life for Molly. Her main concern was her son, Tommy. The constant changing of schools and towns wasn’t good for him. He started bullying other kids and starting fights. She never imagined that one call to the principal’s office would restore a part of her life she thought was lost.
Molly sat quietly across the table from her husband, Nigel, as they shared a tense lunch. The clinking of cutlery was the only sound breaking the heavy silence between them.
Nigel’s frustration was evident in the way he poked at his food, barely taking a bite. His brow was furrowed, and his mouth was set in a tight line.
Finally, he muttered under his breath, “This is overcooked,” pushing his plate away with a look of disdain.
Molly felt her heart sink at his words. She had tried her best with the meal, but it seemed nothing she did ever pleased Nigel anymore. His next words cut even deeper.
“And why can’t you get your son to behave? He’s always causing trouble, and it’s making our lives more difficult.”
The way Nigel referred to Tommy as “your son” stung. He never called Tommy “our son,” always distancing himself from the boy.
Despite being together for so many years, Nigel had never fully embraced Tommy as his own.
Tommy wasn’t Nigel’s biological child, but Molly had hoped that, with time, he would come to love him as a father should.
But instead, the constant moving and instability seemed to be tearing their family apart, with Nigel’s impatience growing more pronounced with each passing day.
Nigel had struggled to find stable work, bouncing from one city to another, taking on whatever part-time jobs he could find.
Each time he lost a job, they would uproot their lives again, packing up their belongings and moving to a new place.
Molly had tried to be supportive, taking care of Tommy and doing her best to keep their small family together. But for Tommy, who was only eight, the constant upheaval was taking a toll.
Every time they moved, Tommy had to adjust to a new school, new friends, and new teachers.
It wasn’t surprising that he had started acting out in school. He had changed schools three times in the past year alone, and it was becoming harder and harder for him to keep up.
The frequent relocations meant that he never had a chance to settle in, to feel like he belonged anywhere.
Molly worried about him constantly, knowing how much he was struggling but feeling powerless to help.
The phone rang suddenly, breaking the uncomfortable silence that had settled over the table.
Molly reached for it, dreading what the call might bring.
When she heard the voice on the other end, her heart sank further.
“Mrs. Jones, we need to talk about Tommy,” came the voice of Mrs. Kolinz, the school principal. Her tone was serious, and Molly knew what was coming.
“His behavior has been disruptive, and we’d like you to come to the school tomorrow to speak with his teacher.”
Molly sighed, her heart heavy. This conversation was inevitable. She agreed to meet with the teacher, hoping against hope that this wouldn’t lead to another expulsion.
If Tommy was kicked out of this school, finding another one willing to take him in would be nearly impossible.
The weight of the situation pressed down on her as she hung up the phone, feeling more alone and helpless than ever.
The next day, Molly walked into the school with Tommy’s small hand firmly in hers. The halls were quiet, but her heart pounded with each step they took toward the principal’s office.
The walls seemed to close in on her, amplifying her anxiety. She could feel Tommy’s grip tightening, a reflection of his own unease.
She wished she could comfort him, but her own nerves were too overwhelming.
As they approached the door at the end of the hallway, Molly noticed that it was slightly ajar.
She took a deep breath and peeked inside, seeing the familiar figure of Mrs. Kolinz, the school principal, seated behind her desk.
Standing next to her was a man with his back turned toward the door. Molly’s breath caught in her throat as she realized who it was.
It was him. Christian. Her ex-boyfriend from nearly nine years ago. The man she had once loved deeply and the man who left her.
Christian looked right into her eyes, and she knew he recognized her too. But they both understood it was better to keep it to themselves for now.
Molly quickly pushed her thoughts of Christian aside, forcing herself to focus on the situation at hand. This wasn’t the time to dwell on the past.
Mrs. Kolinz glanced up as Molly and Tommy entered the room.
“Mrs. Jones,” she began, her tone professional and firm, “thank you for coming. Mr Rogers, the boy’s teacher, and I need to talk with you about Tommy’s behavior.”
“It’s been quite concerning lately, and we can’t tolerate any more disruptions in the classroom. If this continues, we may have to ask him to leave the school.”
Molly’s heart sank as she heard those words. She had been dreading this conversation, knowing that Tommy’s behavior had been getting worse with each move they made.
But this school was their last hope, the only place that had agreed to take Tommy in after so many rejections. If he got expelled from here, she didn’t know what they would do.
“Please, Mrs. Kolinz,” Molly pleaded, her voice trembling with emotion. “Tommy just needs more time to adjust.
“We’ve moved so much, and it’s been really hard on him. He’s not a bad kid; he’s just struggling to find his place. This school is our last hope. If he has to leave, I don’t know where we’ll go.”
Mrs. Kolinz softened slightly, her eyes showing a hint of sympathy, but she remained firm in her stance.
“We understand that Tommy has been through a lot, Mrs. Jones. But we have to think about the other students as well. We’ll give him one more chance, but if there’s another incident, it will be his last.”
Molly nodded, her heart heavy with worry. She knew the odds were stacked against them, but she had no choice but to hope that Tommy could turn things around.
As the meeting ended, she gently guided Tommy out of the office and down the hallway toward the car.
Her mind was racing, filled with fears about the future and the challenges that lay ahead.
Just as they reached the car, she heard a voice call out to her, a voice that sent a shiver down her spine.
“Molly, wait.”
She turned around slowly, her heart pounding as she faced Christian.
“Tommy, get in the car and wait for me,” she said softly to her son, who obediently climbed into the backseat.
Molly watched him shut the door before turning back to face the man she never expected to see again.
Christian’s voice was soft, but the weight of his words hit Molly like a ton of bricks.
She could see the genuine concern in his eyes, a concern she hadn’t expected to find after all these years.
He had always been a caring persson, but hearing him now, admitting his regrets, was something she hadn’t prepared for.
“Christian…” Molly began, her voice barely above a whisper. She struggled to keep her emotions in check.
“You made it very clear back then that you didn’t want the responsibility. You walked away without looking back. What’s different now?”
Christian’s expression softened, and he took a deep breath, as if trying to gather the right words.
“I was scared, Molly. I was young and stupid, and I didn’t realize what I was giving up. Not a day has gone by that I haven’t thought about you… about what we could have had.”
He exhaled.
“When I saw Tommy, it all clicked. I see so much of myself in him, and it made me realize what I missed out on. I can’t undo the past, but I want to make things right now.”
“Nigel is Tommy’s father now,” Molly said, though her voice lacked conviction.
“I’ve made a life with him, and I can’t just throw that away.”
“I’m not asking you to throw anything away, Molly. I just want to be there for Tommy. He deserves to know his real father, and I want to help him in any way I can.”
He came closer.
“I’ve seen kids like him before—kids who are acting out because they’re missing something important in their lives. I know I can be that for him, and maybe… maybe we can find a way to make this work.”
Molly’s heart ached with the weight of the decision she faced. She knew Christian was right—Tommy needed more than what Nigel was providing. But admitting that felt like betraying the life she had tried so hard to build.
“Please, just think about it,” Christian said, his voice gentle but pleading.
“I’m not asking for an answer right now. But I want you to know that I’m here, and I’m not going anywhere this time.”
Molly nodded slowly, her mind racing. “I’ll think about it,” she whispered, her voice filled with uncertainty.
Christian gave her a small, hopeful smile. “That’s all I ask. Take your time, Molly. I’ll be here when you’re ready.”
Molly returned home with Tommy later in the evening. She decided to take her son for a ride after school and have dinner out. As she opened the door, the familiar sight of Nigel sprawled on the couch greeted her.
His shirt was rumpled, and a half-empty bottle of whiskey sat on the table beside him. The room was dim, and the air smelled of alcohol and stale air.
Nigel had lost yet another job, and rather than facing his problems, he had chosen to numb himself with drink.
Molly sighed deeply, her heart heavy. This wasn’t the life she had envisioned for herself or her son. She walked him to the bed; he was already sleepy, and as soon as he touched the sheets, he closed his eyes.
She glanced around the small, cluttered apartment, filled with items they had collected over years of moving from one place to another, never really settling.
The decision she had been avoiding for so long suddenly became clear. It was time to leave, to give Tommy a better life, one where he could feel stable and loved.
Quietly, Molly packed a few bags, gathering Tommy’s clothes and his favorite toys. She checked if Nigel woke up, and after seeing that he was still asleep she went for her son.
She moved with a sense of purpose she hadn’t felt in years. When everything was ready, she gently shook Tommy awake.
“Come on, Tommy. We’re leaving,” she said softly.
Tommy rubbed his eyes, still half-asleep. “Where are we going, Mom?”
Molly smiled, her heart swelling with a newfound sense of hope. “We’re going to stay with someone who cares about us. Someone who wants to be part of our lives.”
As they left the apartment, Molly felt an enormous weight lift off her shoulders.
For the first time in a long while, she felt like they were on the right path, heading toward a future that held promise and happiness—a new beginning for both of them.

They donated the $14 million they collected from the sale of the images to their organization, the Maddox-Jolie-Pitt Foundation.
In a 2008 Rolling Stone interview, Brad Pitt talked about how the paparazzi invaded their personal lives, stating, “Well, we get run out of every major city.” That’s the cause of my b****ing. These photographers are pursuing the kids as they call out their names.
All eyes were focused on the couple and their growing family, though.
At the age of fifteen, Vivienne Marcheline, who went by her mother’s name Angelina Jolie, is widely recognized as one of the most stunning young women in the world. She is the youngest of six children, with her twin brother Knox being a few seconds older.
Given how stunning her parents are, it should come as no surprise that their children share their beauty.

Her father is the well-known actor Jon Voight, who played Angelina Jolie’s father in the Lara Croft: Tomb Raider movie from 2001. She continued, saying, “I could not look at myself in the morning if I did that.” I would not be interested in a man who had an affair with his wife.

The Tomb Raider star explained that every child has reaped tremendous benefits from having a cosmopolitan upbringing.
They’re genuinely amazing people, and I think their sheer quantity has greatly influenced one another. Not that I led anything, really.

Jolie told Entertainment Weekly that she didn’t think Vivienne would be in the film and that she thinks parents should give their children the freedom to make their own decisions.
“Although they like coming on set and making brief cameos, our kids are not actors in our eyes. That’s not at all what Brad and I hope to accomplish. However, none of the other [performers], who were three and four years old, would come up to me. It had to be a child that liked me and didn’t run from my eyes, claws, or horns. It had to be Viv after all.
Although Vivienne is now assisting her mother in creating the Broadway musical adaptation of The Outsiders, which is scheduled to open in April 2024, her only performing credit to far is this one.

News that Viv “reminds me of my mother in that she isn’t focused on being the center of attention but in being a support to other creatives.” “She is very thoughtful and serious about it, and she works really hard to figure out how she can contribute to the theater.”

Jolie spoke with Harper’s Bazaar on the loss and said,Following the death of Vivienne’s bunny during surgery, we adopted two cute but little rabbits with disabilities. They have to work in pairs.
