What’s the next step?

A man and woman were walking out of the arrivals area. They looked about the same age, probably in their thirties. It wasn’t clear whether they were a couple or siblings, but right between them was a small figure that stopped Alex cold.Jasper.Her little face lit up when she spotted someone else. She immediately let go of the adults and ran toward a person standing a few feet away. That person crouched down, arms open.Alex watched silently as the son threw herself into the woman’s arms. The hug was long and warm. The woman kissed Jasper’s cheek, smiling as they started chatting happily.Alex’s jaw tightened.It was Gennie.Seeing her embrace their son filled him with emotions he didn’t expect, joy, sadness, and then jealousy. A deep, burning kind that made his chest ache.He left his luggage where it was and started walking toward them without thinking. He didn’t know what he was going to say, but he couldn’t just stand there and do nothing.Gennie was still crouched before Jasper,

I don’t have time for fake smiles and pretend friendships

Six Weeks Later Just like the day before, Genevieve woke up feeling sick. She jumped out of bed and hurried to the bathroom. Kneeling in front of the toilet, she emptied her stomach until she felt like she couldn’t anymore. When it finally stopped, she sat on the cold tile floor, breathing hard and completely drained of energy. After a few minutes, the dizzy feeling passed. She stood up, cleaned herself, and stepped into the shower, hoping the water would help her feel more alive. She stayed there longer than usual. When she got out, she dried off and walked to her closet. Not in the mood to think too much, she grabbed the first black dress she saw and slipped into it. With her bag in hand, she left the room. At the dining table, her little boy looked up and smiled brightly. “Mommy!” Jasper was dressed for school, swinging his legs as he ate his breakfast. “Good morning, ma,” Gloria, the nanny, greeted her. “Morning,” Genevieve replied, managing a weak smile as she joined th

I am not a child. Please stop treating me like one

Genevieve let out a sigh. "It is written all over your face that you do not feel well. So I am wondering what you are doing here." "Do you want me to call the doctor to come check on you? That might be better since you hate going to the hospital.""You are giving me a headache, Lucy.""I just want to make sure you are okay.""I am fine, I promise.""That is hard to believe. Your eyes look tired and your clothes are too plain today. That is not like you. You usually dress like you are trying to blind us with your outfits.""Then I guess the problem is yours if you do not believe I am alright.""I will leave you alone for now. But if you do not feel any better in the next two hours, I am sending you home."Even though she looked weak, Genevieve still managed to throw Lucy a sharp look."You can say whatever you want, but I will not apologise for caring too much.""What do you want for breakfast?""I have already eaten."Lucy quietly reached into her handbag, took out her phone, and st

Do you know my body more than I do?

"No, I do not. I am perfectly fine.""You are not!""What now, Lucy? Do you know my body more than I do?""You may know how your body feels better than I do, but you are not being honest with yourself.""Please stop this, Lucy. I do not have the energy for this right now. I feel too tired.""I do not need a doctor. I just need to rest a bit more. I will be fine.""You are still not going to eat? How will you get better?""I am not hungry. Besides, I cannot keep anything down, so there is no point in trying to eat."Lucy kept staring at her, but Genevieve looked away."Please pass the coffee. I am thirsty."Lucy finally gave in, reached for the mug of hot coffee, and handed it to Genevieve, who quietly said thank you and took it. Lucy watched closely as Genevieve lifted the mug to her lips and took a sip."Ugh!" she muttered, quickly placing the mug back on the table."What now?" Lucy crossed her arms."What did you put in it?""What do you mean by that?""It tastes off.""Genevieve?!"

Do not tell me you are backing out now.

Gennie ignored the knocks on her door without hesitation. They kept coming, steady and loud, but she refused to move. She had already switched her phone to silent the moment it began ringing.Time slipped away as she focused on her work. When she finally completed the task in front of her, another knock came. She checked her phone, it was past noon.She stood up and headed to the door, already prepared to face whoever she assumed was outside. But when she opened it, she was caught off guard.It was not who she expected.They stared at each other for a few seconds before the visitor spoke.“Hi.”Gennie’s expression turned cold. “Listen, Bessie. I am in no mood for this. I kept my promise. I stayed away from you and Jamie. If this is not work-related, which I know it is not, please leave.”Bessie stepped inside without waiting for permission and shut the door behind her.“I do not know why you think so badly of me, but I came here for a reason,” she said.Gennie crossed her arms. “How a

Getting nervous?

Genevieve and Lucy made their way out of the office and into Genevieve's car, with Lucy taking the driver's seat. The journey to the hospital passed quickly, and soon they were walking through the main entrance and heading straight for the doctor's office. Dr Nayla stood up the instant they entered the room."Good afternoon. I'm Dr Nayla," she said with a warm smile."Good to see you. Thank you for fitting us in at such short notice. And I apologise for running a few minutes late," Lucy replied."Not a problem at all. Dr Amber is a wonderful colleague, so I'm happy to help. Please, both of you, take a seat." She motioned towards the chairs positioned across from her desk.Lucy and Genevieve settled into their seats. Dr Nayla sat back down and reached for a clean medical chart from her desk, along with a pen."So this appointment has been booked under the name of Miss Woods. Which one of you is that?" she asked, looking between them."My friend here," Lucy said, gesturing towards Genev

God. Is she okay?

Lucy stared at her friend, her voice rising with disbelief. "Babe, what are you saying?""What do you mean by that? You heard exactly what I said.""Get rid of it? Are you joking?"Dr Nayla recognised that the situation was becoming too personal and that the two women needed space to talk privately. She stood up from her chair. "I'll give you both a few minutes to discuss things," she said before excusing herself and leaving the office.The door clicked shut behind her."I know you're not happy about this," Lucy said, her tone softening. "But please, Gene. How can you make that decision so quickly?"Gene turned to face her friend properly, meeting her eyes. "Do you even know who the father is?""Alex. So what?""Don't say things that will make me angry, Lucy. This is already difficult enough for me.""Do I need to remind you that Alex isn't my partner anymore? We separated officially. I don't know where he lives. I made it very clear that my son and I want nothing to do with him. And
