LEAH’S POVI stared at his quickly sent reply with a complicated look on my face. But before I could even type another message, my eyes widened when I saw him suddenly calling me.My hands holding the phone slightly trembled. But I shook my head, trying to regain my composure.I cleared my throat, before finally answering.“Sorry for the sudden call.” Brixton’s deep and husky voice rang on the other end of the line, making my heart race even faster.“I was… we were just so happy about it.” It was odd how I could seem to hear his smiling voice at this moment. I didn’t even know how to respond. I felt tongue tied as soon as I heard his voice.“Did I… bother you?”I took a deep breath, gathering my thoughts and stopping myself from getting distracted before I finally spoke.“No.” It was all I could manage to say, still feeling perplexed at the sudden call.There was a silence at the other end of the line before I heard some rustling noises. I blinked my eye, but then I heard another voic
LEAH’S POV“Uncle Hudson! Uncle Brixton!”The kids’ excited voices rang out through the area as they called out to them, running towards them with bright smiles on their faces.Hudson and Brixton also started walking towards us, both have gentle smiles on their faces at the sight of the triplets. Once both Calvin and Clyde reached them, they quickly ruffled the two boys’ hair, and I couldn’t help but notice the affection radiating from their every gesture.I slightly tightened my hold on Bella’s little hand as I felt her wanting to rush towards them too.“Be careful, sweetheart.” I murmured softly, gently reminding her not to run off.We all came to a stop in front of Hudson and Brixton. My heart race even faster now that I was already facing them – and the kids too. I tried my best to act normal, but the complicates emotions swirling inside me were hard to ignore.I raised my head and suddenly met Hudson’s gaze. I was slightly taken back when I noticed a glint in his eyes which I cou
LEAH’S POVI watched as Brixton held both Calvin and Clyde’s hands on each side, guiding them as they walked towards the entrance of the place.For a moment, I stood on my spot, unable how to react the sight in front of me. Bella being carried by Hudson, both Clyde and Calvin being held by Brixton… it made a swirl of emotions washed over me.Seeing the children so close to the men who were their fathers, but were so oblivious to that truth, made me feel complicated. A hand seemed to be gripping my heart as I stared at them.“Mom, let’s go!” Clyde’s voice snapped me out of my thoughts.That’s when I realized that they were now looking at me expectantly, they paused on their steps as if waiting for me to come. I was stunned for a moment, but heat quickly rose to my cheeks, but I managed to smile and nod at the kids.“Alright, I’m coming.”The place was quiet and serene, with only the sound of waves and the fresh breeze greeting us. The whole area was beautiful, but there were not many p
THIRD PERSON’S POV“You have a what?!”Penelope’s exclamation echoed through out the room. She was wearing a shocked look on her face as she paced back and forth in front of both Hudson and Brixton who were sitting on both sides of the couch respectively.Her face still held a bewildered look as she stopped in front of them, placing her hand on her hips. “You’re telling me I’m an aunt now?!”Hudson and Brixton exchanged glances. Both were wearing serious yet helpless expressions on their faces.Brixton let out a sigh, crossing his arms. “We’re more surprised than you are when we first found out about it too.”Penelope took a sharp breath, her expression that of exaggeration. “Why didn’t you tell me immediately?”“We wanted to take things in our own hands,” Hudson finally spoke, his tone low and serious. “Besides, we need to take everything slow with her and the kids.”“I thought you’ve just taken an interest in her,” Penelope spoke after a while, narrowing her eyes at them. “I was eve
LEAH’S POV“Mommyyyy!!”I smiled at the sight of the three adorable kids running towards me. I also quickened my steps, finally reaching out to them as they all hugged my thighs.A chuckle escaped my lips as I crouched down, ruffling Clyde and Calvin’s hair and kissing Bella on the cheeks.“Did you have fun?” I asked them in a soft tone, still crouching down as I face them.Bella giggled while nodding. Clyde and Calvin also nodded in full enthusiasm with wide grins on their faces.“It’s super fun! Uncle Hudson and Uncle Brixton brought us to a very wide playground. We also met some new friends there!”“And we eat delicious foods too!”A sudden warmth spread through my chest as I listened to their words. Out of the corner of my eyes, I can see Hudson and Brixton a few feet away from us, standing beside their car.They were also looking towards our direction. So, I stood up, finally glancing towards them.Our eyes met, and for a moment, I felt my heart race once more. Yesterday, I told
LEAH“Mommy… Uncle Hudson and Uncle Brixton are so niceeee! Can they just be our daddy?”Bella’s innocent question struck me like a lightning. My heart skipped a beat a beat, and my mind raced as I tried to process what she had just asked.The three of them were now staring at me, their eyes wide as they waited for an answer I wasn’t even prepared to give.I swallowed hard, feeling my throat tightening. I couldn’t think of any words to respond. But then, Calvin’s soft voice cut through the silence as he stared at his siblings.“But we already have a daddy, right? He’s away at work…” His innocent and thoughtful tone echoed through the room.The three fell silent once more. Calvin’s statement hung in the air, and their little faces were now deep in thought.My heart clenched as I realized the consequences of the lie I had told them in the past – about a daddy was always busy, who was always away and couldn’t come home.“But daddy is always away…” Clyde was the first to break the silence
LEAH'S POVMy heart swelled with emotions. I knew there was no turning back now. I already made the decision, and my kids deserved everything in this world.I nodded at Bella, forcing a small smile on my lips despite the complicated emotions I was feeling. “Of course, you can, darling.”Their faces lit up once more, the pure joy and excitement couldn’t be concealed on them.“We have a daddy now!” Clyde exclaimed, grinning ear to ear as he faced both Bella and Calvin beside him, his face showing a proud and happy look. “And we have two daddies at that!”His words earned a giggle from Bella and also an eager nod from Calvin.I watched them silently. Seeing their reactions somewhat made my heart feel a little lighter. It made me happy as long as they’re happy.“Alright, it’s getting late. You should go to sleep now.” I said in a gentle tone, tucking them once more on the bed.“Mom, can we see our daddies tomorrow? Or will they still be busy?” Calvin asked me another question.I hesitated,
LEAH’S POVI watched my angels timidly take a step forward as they stopped in front of Hudson and Brixton. My heart swelled with a mix of emotions I could barely contain. This moment has been long anticipated, yet I equally feared for it to arrive, and its now unfolding before my eyes.Hudson and Brixton – they were now no longer just the uncles in the eyes of my children. Today, they were finally being recognized as their fathers.“Daddy…” Bella’s small voice was filled with a hesitant warmth as she looked up at both Hudson and Brixton with wide, hopeful eyes.Calvin and Clyde followed suit, their voice low and shy yet filled with emotions.Then, I noticed how Brixton and Hudson’s faces softened. The usually unreadable masks they wore melted into expressions of genuine warmth and gentleness. They crouched down to the kids’ level, their eyes flickering with emotions that seems to tug something deep inside me.“Hey there, little ones.” Brixton spoke in a gentle tone, his voice filled w
