Laughter and shrieks echo through my home as I playfully chase after two little ones, their tiny bodies free and unburdened. They find it absolutely hilarious when they escape from the bath, and I playfully chase them with clothes in my hands. I must confess, I enjoy it just as much. My little ones have reached the age of four, bringing immense joy and filling my heart with love beyond measure. Our home is a place of joy and excitement, where love permeates every corner.Ryan, being the oldest, possesses a striking resemblance to his father with his dark, wavy hair. He possesses a fiery and easily provoked temperament, displaying dominance and intelligence while also being incredibly attached to me.And then there's Sawyer. We affectionately refer to her as Awez. Despite her resemblance to her father, with her dark hair and big, round eyes, she possesses a distinctiveness that sets her apart. Compared to Ryan, she is small and has a calm and peaceful demeanor, with a very gentle and

He stumbles back when his gaze stares at my screen, his jaw clenches as his brows knit together. “Mummy? Mummy… who is that man? He doesn’t look like our uncle?” My darling children cry out, confused and most likely scared. “Tobias… I…” “You’re a mother?” He spits out with venom as if it’s the most disgusting piece of information he has ever heard of. My shoulders sag with defeat as my chin touches my chest. “I… yes,” I whisper, too afraid to utter another word in case he uses it against me. “Are they…” His voice trails off as he passes me my phone. “When were you going to tell me?” He asks in a deep voice that sends a plague of goosebumps to erupt across my skin. I sink back against the door, overwhelmed by a flood of tears streaming down my face, consumed by sorrow. He is extremely upset, and I fear that he will take them away from me, leaving me powerless to prevent it. I lack the financial resources that he possesses to prolong this legal battle indefinitely, with the intenti

Attempting to inhale deeply only intensifies the tightness in my chest, leaving me feeling light-headed as a wave of unease crashes over me. I should have anticipated this inevitable moment after Tobias confronted me after his father's funeral. But I suppose I was somewhat foolish to think that Tobias would have willingly distanced himself from me once he discovered that I was pregnant and had deceived him by claiming that Kip was the father.Throughout my adolescent years, I discovered that when you inflict enough emotional pain on someone, they become accustomed to suffering, much like a physical wound. If you don't resolve the situation, it could have serious consequences, like bleeding out. Unfortunately, my relationship with Tobias only brings us both immense suffering.I'm well aware that Tobias shares my sentiments, and when life has taken control of you, inform of the tragic events that have unfolded. It’s near impossible to allow something so heart-warming, like love, fill th

It’s been three days since Tobias showed up unannounced, and I’m hoping that he has come to his senses and returned to New Zealand. I’m so tired, the sleepless nights have been getting to me lately, and I’m so paranoid that I catch myself constantly looking out my living room window or over my shoulder when we are out in public.I steer the car into our driveway and notice a black sedan is parked up in front of the house. My stomach begins to churn, and my grip tightens on the steering wheel as the driver gets out of the vehicle and stands next to his door with a placid look on his face.“Who is that man?” Awez asks, rubbernecking out the window as I drive past him.Lifting the handbrake, I kill the engine and put the windows down to let enough air into the vehicle. “I’m not sure, honey girl, but I’m about to find out,” I say as I unbuckle myself and turn to face both her and Ryan. “I need you both to stay here while I talk to the nice man and see what he wants, okay?”Awez nods her h

Tobias staggers backward, and I press my palm over my thumping chest. My heart feels like it is desperately trying to rip through the layers of skin and expose its vulnerable state. Calmly, he picks up the fallen chair, sets it upright, and collapses into it. His gaze is trained on the floor in front of him as we remain still. The pair of us are too afraid to disrupt the silence between us as we try to figure out how we got here.I wonder if he is blaming me. Conjuring up scenarios in his head of me setting out to trap him to demand a substantial payout to keep my mouth shut. Surely, he wouldn’t be so foolish to think that after I haven’t attempted to contact him all this time.“I was told that I was infertile,” he mutters as his brows knit together.“You didn’t wear protection, Tobias. Not once, and El told me that if you…” My voice trails for a beat. “That if you were to ejaculate multiple times in a short span, there was a small chance that you had one or two good swimmers.”His ga
