21. Don't Want To But Have To

_________________...~ ~ ~ O L I V I A ~ ~ ~."Oomph!" I tripped backward by the momentum with which my monkey charged onto me as soon as the door of the elevator opened. I would have fallen flat on my butt with her in my arms if it was not for Jackson who caught me from behind, his hands landing straight on my breasts again. I looked up and glared at him as he steadied me and he immediately retreated his hand. Good choice, mate, good choice. I bent down and quickly picked my daughter up, peppering kisses all over her face as I wrapped my arms tight around her while carrying her out of the metal box. "Are you okay?" I asked her.Kelsey nodded her head vigorously, her eyes wide. "I'm fine, Mommy. The misters were nice. They said they had to go on a trip and couldn't play with us anymore. That's why they brought us home."She looked over my shoulder at Jackson."Daddy!" She grinned at him. I stiffened as I turned around to face him.Jackson's eyes lit up as he took a tentative st

22. Bro Talk

____________ ...~ ~ ~ J A C K S O N ~ ~ ~.I had lunch with my daughter, my wife and her annoying friend and then continued to stay with my kid till late afternoon.And then unceremoniously, Sarah Hopkins kicked me out while Kelsey was taking a nap.I smirked as I turned off my car.How long was Hopkins even going to be here?She was going to be gone today or tomorrow and then I will have my girls all to myself. And then, it will be easier for me to have Livy where I wanted her.I got out of the car and passed the keys to the valet, strolling towards the elevator with a bounce to my step. My daughter knew who I was. And Olivia knew that she could not fight me now. Everything had just gotten ten times easier in just a couple of hours. Reaching the hotel room, I was not surprised to find William at the bar. The man had not left the hotel suite since we had gotten here. "Someone looks happy." William raised a brow as he took a sip of his whiskey. "Olivia went down and gave you h

23. Dinner Plans

_____________...~ ~ ~ O L I V I A ~ ~ ~."How about this?" Kelsey stepped out of her closet wearing a tie dye t-shirt and a purple tutu."Seven out of ten." Sarah said after pretending to inspect the outfit for a moment.I couldn't help but laugh at the expression on my daughter's face. She looked absolutely confused and adorable. "Why not ten?" She asked pouting."Because, my little fashionista, we need something that will make you shine brighter than a star in the sky!" She exclaimed, kneeling down to her level. "Let's keep looking, okay?"Kelsey nodded and disappeared back into the closet, her giggles echoing around the room.Sarah turned to me with a knowing look, her smile disappearing as soon as Kelsey was out of sight. "You okay?""I will be." I sighed, running a hand through my hair. "It's just...I can't believe he's back in our lives like this."Sarah nodded solemnly. "I know it's a lot to take in, but we're in this together, Liv. Whatever happens, I'm here for you and Ke

24. Bye Bestie

_____________...~ ~ ~ O L I V I A ~ ~ ~.William smirked, looking over at a confused Jackson - or pretending to be confused Jackson - and back at me. "Your husband has been keeping detailed tabs on you since the day you left."I turned to Jackson with a glare on my face."Husband?" Kelsey grabbed my attention with her big confused eyes. "Mommy, you are married? To who?"I looked at her, my heart racing. This was definitely not the time or the place to have this conversation. "We're not married, Kelsey. Not anymore.""But who is your husband?" Kelsey asked. She looked around at Jackson. "Is Daddy your husband?"Jackson cleared his throat, looking at me with a mix of hope and hesitation. "Well, technically, we're still married, Kelsey," he began."But that's not what we are here to talk about, sweetheart," I interjected quickly, cutting him off. "We're here to have a nice dinner and enjoy each other's company, remember?"Kelsey looked back and forth between us, clearly confused by t

25. No More Us

_____________...~ ~ ~ O L I V I A ~ ~ ~."She is out like a light," Jackson said as he closed Kelsey's bedroom door behind him."Thanks for carrying her," I murmured, trying to keep my voice steady.Jackson nodded and followed me into the living room."What is it that you want to talk about?" I asked, my arms folded tightly across my chest.Jackson took a deep breath, his eyes on the floor before he looked back up at me. "I know I have a lot to make up for, Olivia. I've been thinking about everything since I saw Mom's letter. And now, with Kelsey... I just want to be in her life. To be there for her in a way I never was for you.""Jackson, this isn't just about you and me anymore," I said firmly. "It's about Kelsey and what's best for her. I need you to understand that."He nodded slowly, taking a step closer. "I do understand. And I'm willing to do whatever it takes to earn your trust back. Both of your trusts."I shook my head. "Nothing is ever going to happen between the two of

26. Packing

_____________...~ ~ ~ O L I V I A ~ ~ ~.Jackson had texted me earlier in the morning saying that he would pick up us.I was still doing some last-minute packing.Jackson had said that he would take care of accommodation when we got there. But I could always stay at Sarah's.I did not want to stay with my parents.I had not even told them that we were coming, or that Jackson was back in our lives, or that he had dropped the bomb on the status of our marriage.But I knew that I had to.The last thing I wanted was to cause more drama, especially for Kelsey.So, I took a deep breath and picked up the phone to call my mom.Cassandra Smith had not changed one bit in the last five years - she was still the charming socialite and host and overbearing mother, who was never satisfied with what I did.The phone rang for the longest time before she picked up. Knowing that my mother was attached to her hand device like a second skin, I could imagine she was in the company of someone else. And

27. Flight Back Home

____________ ...~ ~ ~ J A C K S O N ~ ~ ~."That's not enough, Mommy. Kiss Daddy better." Kelsey demanded.I raised a brow at my daughter's demand.Kiss Daddy better?I really liked that idea."No need for that, monkey." I pretended to be the good guy. "Daddy is not sad. Mommy is right about Daddy not knowing how to tie your hair anyway."Olivia shot me a look that could have frozen the Sahara desert."Kelsey," she said firmly. "Mommy and Daddy are just friends now. No more of that, okay?"I bit the inside of my cheek to stop myself from smirking - try selling that to our daughter, wifey.Come on Kelse, show her whose daughter you are! Get what you want from her!"Mommy!" The stubborn pout was on. "We are not going anywhere until you kiss Daddy."Olivia's eyes shot to me, a silent plea for help.But I was enjoying this too much."Okay, okay, Kelsey," I said, stepping closer to Olivia, my hand on her shoulder. "I guess I can get a kiss from your Mommy for doing a good job on the bu

28. Grandpa

_____________...~ ~ ~ O L I V I A ~ ~ ~.The scent of home was something else.It was true that I had uprooted my life and moved across the country, that this was not home to my daughter.But it was where I had grown up, where I had met Jackson, where I had gotten married, where I had fell in love, and where I had felt the most pain.It was a homecoming I was not sure I was ready for.As the plane touched down, my stomach churned with a mix of anxiety and nostalgia.Home.There were two cars waiting for us on the tarmac."Grandpa!" Kelsey yelled as soon as she sighted my father."Dad?" I was confused.I had told my mother that we would talk about where we were staying. Why was he here when we hadn't had that talk yet?Jackson looked over at me. "You didn't tell me Daniel was coming.""He didn't tell me either." I sighed.Jackson took Kelsey's hand and led her down the steps of the plane while I took a moment to compose myself.My father, Daniel Smith, was a man of few words. But h

29. Another Confrontation

________________...~ ~ ~ O L I V I A ~ ~ ~.Kelsey asked me why we were not riding with her Daddy on the way to my parent's house.My Dad was not at all happy to hear that but he kept quiet for the sake of his granddaughter.Jackson followed us in his car.I wondered why he was doing it.Could he not just go to his place? What was the need for coming to a place where even the lawn weed hated him?"Mommy, why is Grandpa mad?" Kelsey looked at me, her voice filled with innocent curiosity."He's not mad, sweetie," I said, trying to keep my voice steady. "He just has a lot on his mind.""I am mad." My Dad mumbled.I gave him a flat look.Did I really need to verbally remind him that I already had a four-year-old to deal with?Did he have to be stubborn and make things more difficult for me than it already was?"See!" Kelsey pointed out. "I told you Grandpa was mad.""Grandpa won't be mad anymore after I talk to him, monkey. It's grown-up things. You are just a baby. You won't understa

30. Best Son, Worst Husband

________________...~ ~ ~ O L I V I A ~ ~ ~."I am making this more difficult for you, aren't I?" Jackson asked after dinner with my parents.Kelsey had fallen asleep in my father's arms and he had insisted that we stay for the night.And Jackson had refused to leave, going as far as to threaten to wake Kelsey up if he didn't get to stay.And then he had the audacity to ask me if he was making the situation harder for me.No shit, Sherlock!"Jackson," I hissed, my eyes flashing as I turned around to face him. "You have no idea."I was in the balcony, drinking a cup of chamomile tea. It helped me sleep. I needed it especially after he appeared back in my life."Olivia, we need to talk." I didn't know why he had followed me outside.All I knew was that I really did not want to talk to him now, or ever. But I needed to say this one thing."You are an absolute piece of shit, you know that?" I asked."I know." He made no attempt to defend himself."Do you even know why I am saying this
