10, 15, I called Emmett's phone like four times in a row and just text him like, are you okay? What's going on? I knew something was wrong. And you know what? I pictured for a moment, I'm like, maybe he wrecked his brand new truck. He's going to need me. We're going to go to this hospital. I'm going to take all five of these babies.

And for the first time in a long time, he's going to be sitting there humbled and actually need and want his family. And we're going to be there. And this is what's going to heal us.

I don't even know how long I was asleep when I heard the pounding on my door. So I slowly walked myself to my door, and I remember opening it, and I'm like, it's going to be cops, and they're going to be like, come with us. We have him. Instead, it was three detectives who were all in street clothes.

And they're like, we just really need you to sit down. And we all walked in and sat around this giant leather couch that Emmett and I had saved forever for and finally had this dream couch on our dream house.

For the first second, I'm like, okay, he's shot, he's at the hospital, they're going to take me there. And I think the detective knew. He was like, Ashley, he was shot in the heart and in the forehead.

And I just remember thinking, like, there's no way this is my one answer. I said, I just needed something to fix, not break my entire life and break my family and leave these kids fatherless and leave me broken for the rest of my life is what I thought in that moment.

On the video footage at Walgreens, you see Rob, his truck pulls up in just like a normal stall. You can see his whole truck. And in the video, you see him get out of his truck with his hands in his pocket. And as he's walking inside Walgreens, his hands don't leave his pocket.

He's like frantically looking through Walgreens and you can see through the Walgreens cameras, him going up and down every single aisle.

So it's not just the incident of your husband was cheating on you and now he's dead and this guy killed him. It's like every insecurity just grows inside of you. And so the disassociation and the fog isn't just you went through this moment. It's what did that moment tell you about yourself and what do you think everybody else thinks about you now?
