A week later, Maya and Jason prepared for dinner with Liam and Skyler. Maya hadn't been feeling well the whole week, so she finally decided to take a pregnancy test. Maya locked herself in her bathroom and waited for the results. "Please don't be positive. Please don't be positive." She repeatedly whispered to herself. Maya put the test on the edge of the sink and paced back and forth through the bathroom as she waited. The last thing she wanted was to be pregnant. Maya always wanted kids, but after Jason's reaction, she decided not to. To make matters worse, Jason was already going to be a father. She just wasn't the mother of his child. "No, no, no, no, no," Maya whined when she looked down at the positive test. "Shit." Maya sat in the bathroom for a while before she got up and met Jason downstairs. "Are you okay?" Jason asked and frowned. "Yep."The two left the house and drove to Liam's house. The drive was quiet. Jason wanted to fix things with Maya, but Maya wasn't inte

Maya returned to the hotel in shock. She wasn't prepared to take care of two babies. Once Maya got back, she saw the envelope she had given Jason. She picked it up and hoped Jason signed it. When she looked through the papers, she saw Jason's signature. Maya let out a sigh of relief. It was finally over. All the pain and torture was finally over.Maya took a long bath and thought about what she would do moving forward. She had the means to sustain her kids, but the thought of doing it alone was frightening. As Maya sat in the bath, she placed her hand on her stomach and closed her eyes. She felt connected to her babies even though she hadn't met them yet. After Maya got out of the bath, she had something to eat and decided to go to bed. She was moving into her new house soon and needed the rest. Tomorrow, Maya planned on buying small things that she needed for her new home. She also needed to prepare a room for her babies, but had to know the genders first. *****Maya slowly walked

"So, I was wondering if maybe you could tell your parents about the baby," Celia suggested as she played with Jason's curls. Jason hadn't figured out how to tell his parents. As far as they knew, he and Maya were still married. "I first need to tell them about my divorce before I can mention a child." Jason pinched the bridge of his nose. "I'm glad you decided to leave her, JJ." Celia smiled. "She took a massive toll on your mental health." "It's the other way around. She left me." Jason corrected his mistress. Celia wasn't bothered by how it ended. She was just glad she had Jason all to herself. That is if she could get rid of Lily. "Well, either way, she's gone, and that's all that matters." Jason chose to ignore Celia and got up. "I need to take a shower." He said and grabbed a towel. "Going somewhere?" Celia asked. "I need to see my parents and tell them everything," Jason answered and turned the shower on. Celia smirked at Jason's words, and decided to head downstairs t

It had been nearly three months since Maya moved into her new house. She had settled in well and even opened up another book cafe. Nathan checked up on Maya once a week to ensure she was still alright. Maya was 16 weeks pregnant and had developed a slight bump. She smiled whenever he looked in the mirror and saw her little bump. There was nothing she wanted more than being a mother. Her next appointment was in a few hours. Maya was more excited about this one because she would find out the gender of her twins. She had a handful of names picked out but couldn't decide yet. By the end of the day, she would narrow her list of names. Maya got into the shower and finished up as quickly as she could. She wanted to take a long bath but would be late if she did, so she decided he would have a bath before he went to bed. She got out of the shower and dried herself off. It was windy outside but still hot enough for Maya to wear a dress. She decided on a knee-length sky-blue dress with a pai

Maya and Giovanni had been meeting up three times a week for a month straight, and Maya had developed feelings. She tried to shut them out, but Giovanni didn't make it easy. Maya's bump grew a lot more, so she knew she needed to tell Giovanni about it and end whatever they had. Giovanni was coming over for dinner, so Maya cooked him something. As always, she cooked something vegetarian. She felt upset for always making vegetarian options, but Giovanni told her countless times that he didn't mind. Christmas was a week away. Maya loved Christmas, but she had to spend it alone this year because she wanted no contact with anyone. Jason had contacted her daily for the past month, but Maya never answered. She had finally moved on and shut down her feelings for Jason. While Maya was finishing up in the kitchen, the doorbell rang. She knew it was Giovanni, but Maya wasn't as excited as usual because she had to end things and focus on her kids. "Hola, Mami. The food smells lovely." Maya'
