FRAY THE BREAKFAST WENT WELL AND I loved the fact that Sev enjoyed scones more than pancakes like I did. He was a quiet kid and the whole meal, all he’d said was “Mommy, this is my new favorite food” to which Autumn replied with a small laugh and eye roll. It showed as if they had their own private joke. Autumn must’ve noticed something on my face as she explained that Sev had said that at least two dozen times now, claiming food as his favorite which troubled her when I’d asked her earlier about his favorite food. Sev and Autumn had a whole ritual, a whole life that I knew nothing about, and that had nothing to do with me. Seeing it made me a little uncomfortable, and I really couldn’t say why. When Autumn said goodbye to Severus, he didn’t get teary at the fact that he was going to spend the day with me, someone he had just met today, and I took it as a good sign. It didn't look so good after the front door closed behind Autumn. Sev put down his toy and stood in front of me. I was

I was humming along with the fading classic song in the background while chopping the strawberries. Occasionally I paused to glance at Severus who sat on top of the counter with Thor munching his favorite snacks. A smile widely spread across my face. This felt good, this felt normal. It surprised me how something so simple, so mundane such as cooking while having my son sitting on the counter in front of me could bring joy. I put the chopped strawberries into a bowl and placed the knife on the kitchen isle behind me, far away from Sev’s reach. Even though I knew he wouldn't touch the knife, I wasn’t dumb enough to put sharp objects anywhere near three years old. “Dad?” I swallowed. When would I stop doing that, getting nervous all of a sudden just because he called me ‘Dad’. “Yeah?” “What are you doing with the strawberries?” He placed Thor on the counter, steadying the small action figure so it stood with its two feet, then he leaned in to take a peek at the bowl of strawberries.

This 2nd update of the day is dedicated to Merlinda Pancho Pi who has voted for this book. Grazie mille!＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊AUTUMNTHIS WAS WEIRD. Definitely weird. How else would you describe sleeping next to your ex? Okay, I stood corrected. He was not my ex. We had never been boyfriend and girlfriend. No. We had slept together once —not exactly once, but you know what I mean—and it was a one-time thing. Albeit it resulted in me carrying his child, it did not necessarily make him my ex unless there was a term called ex-one-night-stand which I doubt its existence and logic.My head turned slightly, very slowly to the right and my eyes caught his dark blonde head bowed, his forehead nearly touching Sev’s. They looked so much alike. So much that it made me envious because I did not see any part of me in Sev even though I’d carried him in my womb for eight months and twelve days.I still remembered how small Sev was when he was born. I cried when I first saw him. Not only because it was a touchi

Grazie mille! Thanks to your vote, POTI finally is promoted on GN App under the Billionaire tab - POPULAR! Here is a chapter to celebrate!＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊AUTUMN“AUTUMN,” CHARLOTTE, MY ASSISTANT CALLED ME from behind her desk as I walked past it. “I’ve called Anna’s Wondrous Treats and they said they could lower the price for Derek and Michelle’s wedding as long as we book them for Yeni and Layla’s wedding.” “That’s great!” With Derek and Michelle’s many requests — in which one of them included a magician— it would help a lot if we could save some money from the catering. I flipped my wrist over and looked down at my watch. Seven PM. With the New York traffic, I was sure I’d be late for dinner. I knew it since two hours ago when the meeting with Yeni Parker and Layla Hall became longer than planned. Frazier had called twice today. He had mentioned that Sev was showing him around and introducing him to his friends and teacher. From what I’d heard so far, it seemed that they were having a g

Grazie!＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊Autumn’s POVI PUT MY PHONE on the phone holder and Face-timed Steven while waiting for the red light to turn green. He picked up at the second tone, faster than usual. “Hey, sis, what’s up?” I glanced at the view of him sitting on his sofa, his gaze was moving back-to-back on me and what I expected was the TV. “Do you think I am a man-repellent?” I blurted out straight from the jar.“What?” He finally fixed his gaze on me. “What’s that?” “Just now Charlotte and I had a talk and she mentioned that I had this repellent thing on. Something to shoo men away. Be honest with me, Steven, do I have it on me?” Steven looked a tad uncomfortable. “You’re a single mother and a businesswoman, sis. You have a lot going on and a lot going on for you.” “True.” I took the left turn and then sighed. “Still, I’d like to think guys find me attractive. Like I’m a

I WAS ABOUT TO UNLOCK the door when my phone rang. I pulled my phone out of my bag and looked down at the caller ID. Aubrey Vincent. It was Tyler’s mom. Should I answer it? My finger moved on its own and before I knew it, I had my phone pressed on my ear. “Hi, Aubrey.” “How are you, Autumn?” “I-I’m good.” I cleared my throat in the hope that it would shake off this nervous feeling I suddenly had in the pit of my stomach. Previously I had never felt nervous talking to Audrey yet now, I could hardly keep my fingers from fiddling. “How are you? How’s everyone back in D.C.?” I started pacing in the hallway, glancing at the door every now and then. “We’re all good.” There were a few seconds of silence before she heavily sighed. “Look, I know you have a lot going on right now and I’m probably the last person you’d like to talk to but I really have to talk to you.” Now I felt bad for making her feel this way. I couldn’t help it. Talking to my ex’s mom whom I used to be very close was
Pulling Off The Impossible NINETEEN
FRAY I SWALLOWED HARD. Bollocks! It was hard not to cry when Sev was holding my hand tightly as if he was afraid I was going to leave. He brought me to the classroom inside the daycare where other kids were playing on the carpeted floor. It was even harder when he introduced me to his teachers and some of his little buddies. Parading me around as if to say, “See, I told you I have a dad.” My heart was breaking right there in the middle of the room surrounded by children. It ached so badly. But it immediately was healed the second Sev wrapped his arms around my legs and begged me to sit and play puzzles with him. At noon, Autumn called to check up on Sev. We had a brief video call before her next client came. The next phone call was the one I had been waiting for for days yet when it finally arrived now, I was a bit down about it. It was from Doctor Albright. “Mr. Ronan, we have the result.” “And?” I asked, feeling a bit impatient but at the same time afraid to hear the news.

AUTUMN I SMILED AS I WATCHED SEV sleeping in the middle of the bed, his arms stretched out and his mouth slightly opened. I turned around, leaving the door slightly open, and walked towards the living room where I had some work needing to be done. I always had the habit of bringing unfinished works home so that I could do them when Sev was sleeping. That way it wouldn’t cut any time I spent with Sev. I was halfway through the second draft when I heard his light footsteps followed by his voice. “Aren’t you going to sleep?” “No.” I moved my attention back to my laptop screen again. “I have to finish them so we could still go to the zoo tomorrow.” The couch dipped and I was suddenly aware of his presence. I gripped the paper a little tighter and turned to face him. “Go to sleep, Fray. You don’t need to wait for me.” “Fray,” he drawled. “It has been a while since you called me that.” Feeling slightly nervous about our closeness, I put my laptop aside, then stood and moved to the
