SELENAThe car pulled to a stop outside the hospital, and for a moment, we just sat there, not moving. Christopher's knuckles were white as he gripped the steering wheel. The silence was deafening, and I wasn't sure how to break it. I didn't want to make things worse, but I couldn't stand the stillness any longer."Are you angry with me?" I asked, my voice trembling. My eyes welled up with tears as I stared at my trembling fingers, unable to look him in the eye. I was afraid of what he might say.He sighed heavily, running his fingers over the steering wheel. "I wish I could be angry with you, Selena," he said, his voice heavy with emotion. "But I can't. I just can't." He shook his head, his frustration evident. I felt like my heart was breaking, hearing those words. I didn't know what to say, or what to do."I'm sorry," I said, my voice small and vulnerable. It was a phrase I had uttered so many times in the past few days, that it felt like a broken record. But this time, it felt dif

CHRISTOPHER As we pulled up to the hospital ward, I saw a figure sitting on a bed, reading a book. From the distance, I couldn't make out who it was, but I had a feeling that it was Mr. Edward. I saw Selena tense up beside me, her fingers gripping my sleeve tightly. I knew she was nervous, but I also knew we had to go in.I leaned close and whispered in her ear, "You've got this. Don't be nervous." I gave her hand a gentle squeeze before releasing it from my sleeve. I knew she was feeling anxious, but I also knew that she was strong enough to handle this. I gave her a reassuring smile and took a deep breath.Selena took a deep breath, and I could see her resolve hardening. She gave me a small nod as if to say that she was ready to face whatever was on the other side of the door. She reached out, her hand trembling slightly, and opened the door."Edward!" Selena called out, her voice shaking slightly. The man looked up from his book, his eyes widening as he saw her standing there. A s
Mommy, I Want You To Marry Daddy! 51 — His confession.
CHRISTOPHER I walked over to the person and sat down next to them, taking the empty seat beside them. They didn't seem to notice my presence, their head still hanging low as they wept. Their sobs were now softer, their grief seeming to have subsided slightly. I sat there, unsure of what to do or say. I just wanted to be there for them, in case they needed anything.I cleared my throat, trying to find the right words to say. "Hey, man. Are you good?" I asked softly. I wanted to let him know that I was there if he needed to talk. I could see that he was struggling, and I wanted to offer him a listening ear.I raised my hand and placed it on his back. The man remained silent, his shoulder trembling slightly under my hand. I kept my hand there, hoping that the gesture would offer him some comfort. I was starting to feel a bit anxious, unsure of what to do next. But I knew that I needed to give him time to process his emotions. So I waited and hoped that he would eventually open up to me
Mommy, I Want You To Marry Daddy! 52 — Meet my son.
SELENA"What did she say?" I asked, as I approached Christopher, who was holding his phone between his shoulder and his ear. He gave me a quick glance and a tight-lipped smile and then turned his attention back to the phone call.I could tell that he was trying to focus on the conversation, but I was curious to know what was going on. I tried to be patient and wait for him to finish the call, but my curiosity got the better of me.As I started to turn away from him, he shook his head and grabbed my hand. I stopped in my tracks, unsure of what to do. He continued talking on the phone, motioning for me to wait. I stood still, trying not to fidget or move around too much. It was clear that he wanted me to stay put until he was done with the call.I could feel my heart beating faster, my mind racing with questions about what was happening with the babysitter. I tried to remain calm, but I was starting to feel anxious about the situation.Christopher gave me a sheepish smile as he put his
Mommy, I Want You To Marry Daddy! 53 — He's such a sweetheart.
SELENA"I can't believe it!" Mitchell exclaimed, a big smile spreading across her face. She couldn't stop staring at Liam, who was sitting on my lap, happily gazing back at her. "You have a son? How did this happen?" She looked at me, her eyes wide with curiosity. I let my gaze dropped to the floor as I thought to myself; perhapsI had made a mistake by bringing Liam out. A huge mistake at that."Crazy right?" I said, laughing nervously. I took Liam's hands in mine, starting to clap them together. He giggled, completely oblivious to the tension in the air."Not crazy," Mitchell said firmly, raising her index finger for emphasis. Her face lit up with a bright smile, and she leaned forward, fixing her gaze on me. "It's just... unexpected. But it's not crazy at all." She reached out and placed her hand on my arm, giving it a reassuring squeeze.I met her gaze, feeling my own smile forming on my lips. "Thanks," I said, feeling the tension in my body start to melt away. "I really appreciat
Mommy, I Want You To Marry Daddy! 54 — It's wrong to keep him a secret.
SELENA"You're buying way too much," I said, looking at the cart, which was already overflowing with children's books. I grabbed a stack of books from the top of the pile and placed them back on the shelf. "That's enough," I said firmly.Mitchell frowned, clearly disappointed by my decision. "But he needs more books," she protested, reaching for another stack of books."I know he does, but you're buying more than he needed.” I grabbed her hand and started pulling her away. After dropping Liam off at the playground, Mitchell had insisted that we stop by the bookstore to buy some children's books. I knew she had the best intentions, but I was starting to feel overwhelmed by the amount of money we were spending."I just want to make sure he has every book he needs," she said, her eyes pleading with me. "It's not like we're going to do this every day."I sighed, knowing that she was right, but I still felt uneasy about having her spend so much money. "I know," I said softly. "But I think

SELENAAfter watching Liam play, it became clear that he must be hungry, so we decided to get some lunch at a nearby restaurant. It was a small, family-owned place, and the staff were friendly and welcoming. We sat down at a table, and the waiter brought over some menus.Mitchell picked up the menu, scanning it with interest. "This place looks delicious," she said. "What do you think, Liam?" she asked, turning to the little boy who was sitting in his high chair."Hungry!" Liam exclaimed, clapping his hands.I chuckled, adjusting him on the seat."I'm going to get a pizza with pineapple juice," I said, glancing at Mitchell, who was still looking at the menu. "For me and Liam, of course."Mitchell finally looked up from the menu, her eyes sparkling with amusement. "Pineapple juice?" she asked, raising an eyebrow. "Are you sure that's a good idea for a toddler?"I shrugged, grinning at her. "Why not? Live a little!"She laughed, and I could see that she was warming up to the idea. "Alrig

PEDROIt was already late and I was still stuck in my office, going through some documents, when my phone started buzzing. I glanced at the caller ID, and my heart sank when I saw that it was my secretary. I knew it must be important, but I wasn't in the mood to talk to him. I tossed the phone aside, resuming my work.But the phone started buzzing again, insistent and persistent. I sighed, knowing that I couldn't ignore it any longer. Reluctantly, I picked up the phone and answered it. "What is it?" I asked, my voice curt."More documents?" I scoffed, rolling my eyes as I looked back down at the papers in front of me. "I haven't even finished with these ones yet."There was a pause, and then my secretary's voice came through the line, sounding hesitant. "It's not about the documents, sir," he said, sounding a bit nervous. “Good.” I exhaled and then dropped the call.Just as I was about to turn off my phone, it started ringing again. I clenched my jaw in frustration, knowing that it
