Amaija

I sit by the fridge with a pile of food laid out before me. It's after midnight. Xoi is streaming late, so he'll probably sleep at his office tonight. I woke up starving; this little one keeps me on my toes. Thankfully, my morning sickness has passed now, but these nighttime hunger surges have come to replace it.

"You're a greedy one, aren't you?" I scoop another chunk of ice cream into my mouth, savoring the taste.

"My heart..." I jump at the sound of his voice. He's talked to me about having these nighttime meals, but he's not the one carrying his big-headed baby, and Mama's gotta eat. I turn my face to the side to hide, then scoop another spoonful of ice cream and swallow it. Xoi laughs as he walks up to me.

"Babe, we talked about this; the doctor doesn't recommend it," he says.

"Babe, you don't want our child to starve, do you? The little one wants ice cream," I tell him.

"I think Mommy is the one who wants ice cream," he replies.

"And Mommy gets what she wants," I say back. I scoop another spoonful of ice cream into my mouth, throw the tub back in the fridge, then stretch my hands out for him to pick me up. He grins and obliges, scooping me up in his arms. I wrap my hands around his neck and my legs around his torso.

"I thought you were spending the night at the studio," I tell him.

"And stay away from you and our baby? Never." I smile, nuzzling into his neck, then jump suddenly.

"Wait! I left food on the floor!"

He kisses my lips and says, "I'll get it later because right now I want some you-and-me time."

He walks to the bedroom, puts me gently on the bed, and strips away my pajamas. "You're so beautiful."

He kisses my stomach before moving his mouth to my lips. He takes off his clothes quickly and throws them to the side. I laugh as he crawls onto the bed.

"What did you and my baby do today?"

"Completed some IVR for the game. What about you—how was work?" He slips inside me. I gasp, wrapping my legs around him as he begins to move slowly. I start grinding my hips to match his rhythm, panting as he thrusts harder and faster. Finally, we're at the edge. We climax together; he collapses beside me.

"Work was good, but I missed you two," Xoi says. He pulls me into his arms and kisses my neck.

"I can see that; we missed you too." He slips down to my stomach and kisses it before returning to my side and pulling me into his arms.

"My best girls," he whispers.

"I don't know what we're having yet."

He pulls me tighter and says, "I know it's a girl, and she'll be as pretty as you." I smile, my heart warming as I drift off to sleep, totally at peace and happy with my little growing family.


Two Days Later

Ding Dong. Ding Dong. Ding Dong.

I jump out of bed and run to the door. I peek through the peephole and scream when I see who's standing there. I pull it open.

"Zara!" I hug her tightly. Our parents are best friends, so we grew up together like sisters. Unfortunately, she lives in Texas, so I don't get to see her often, but we talk on the phone frequently.

"Aren't you glowing?" she says. I roll my eyes as I usher her in.

"I think they tell every pregnant woman that so they can feel better about getting fat," I respond.

"Maybe, but there's definitely a glow." I smile as she hugs me again; she pulls away and looks me over. "Seriously, you look happy."

"I am. My munchkin is healthy, my baby daddy is hot, and my career is doing well, so I can't complain," I say.

"How are you? I haven't spoken to you in... wow, a month. I feel terrible."

"I'm doing well. We both have busy lives, and you're pregnant." Zara screams and grabs my hands; I grin as we embrace again. "I can't wait to be an aunt; that baby will be adorable." I rub my stomach and smile.

"Enough about me and the munchkin; what have you been up to?" I ask her.

"Work, work, and more work. Oh, and of course, the divorce has been finalized; I'm looking forward to being young and single again." She's two years younger than me and got married to her high school sweetheart right out of high school.

"I'm sorry you and Marcus didn't last," I say as she follows me into the kitchen. I grab a glass of lemonade for me and a glass of Moscato for her.

"His jealousy was getting too hard to handle. It was always, 'Who are you with?' 'Who's that colleague?' 'Why are you five minutes late getting home from work?'" she says. I hand her the glass and sit; she follows.

"He always loved you, maybe more than you loved him."

Zara smiles. "I know he did, but it was love that felt like a prison more than a romance. I don't want a love that's suffocating."

"I understand. That's what I love about Xoi—we can be apart and still be together. I trust him, and he trusts me; I don't need to ask him where he's going or check his phone."

"That's great. I know Xion was worried about his age and, how do I say this... lack of career," she reveals.

"Your brother too? Ugh, Jaden's been on me about it. He has a career, and age is just a number; Xoi is very mature, and he's been nothing short of amazing during this entire pregnancy," I say in Xoi's defense. I know they were never fond of him, but I think they're being too harsh.

"You know me. I want you to be happy, so if Xoi makes you happy, then I'll support you two."

"Thanks, that's why you're my favorite." She laughs.

"But seriously, do you see yourself marrying him?" I pause for a second. I've never thought about marrying Xoi. When I met him, I thought of him as my hot young boyfriend, not my future husband. But I love him, so I suppose I would marry him.

"If he asks, I would probably say yes." She takes a sip of her champagne and eyes me. "Probably?"

"Well, he's so young," I reply.

"You knew that before you started riding his—" I laugh.

"You can say 'penis,' you know. I don't know how you're so reserved when your mother is... not," I tease her.

"I have my father's personality, thank God. But did you know she told Marcus to get a life and a real job and stop watching her daughter? Her exact words," Zara adds.

I snicker. "Aunt Kenya didn't."

"Oh yes, she did," Zara confirms.

"What life is he supposed to have? You were his life." She sighs. "That was the problem. He's a struggling author, and I'm a med resident with a sizable trust fund. He probably believed I would have left him for one of the doctors I worked with. Most men can't handle it when the woman makes more money."

"That's why my baby is so special; he doesn't care that I make more."

"I said men, not boys," Zara retorts.

"Not you too!"

"I'm joking; I like the little preteen," she says.

I grab a cushion and smack her with it.

"You're becoming just as bad as Jaden and Brin."

"Jaden? How is he?" she asks after hearing my brother's name.

I roll my eyes; she's had a crush on him since we were kids. "Not this again."

"Is he single?" she continues.

"Yes, but you know he sees you as his sister," I frankly tell her.

"That's so unfair; we aren't related."

"Tell him, not me."

"Maybe I need to show him I'm all grown up."

"Right, like your 'striptease' two years ago at the cabin when you were still married. If that didn't tell Jaden you were grown, I don't know what will."

"It wasn't good lighting, and it was accidental."

"Right," I say and roll my eyes.

"Shut up, and let's go."

"Where are we going?" I ask, slightly confused.

"I need retail therapy—something sexy. Plus, I need to get you a baby gift."

"The baby shower is months away."

"I'll get you something now and another one when the baby shower comes around." I was hoping for a quiet day inside, but I wouldn't mind getting some shopping done with one of my favorite people.

"Come on, let's go!"

"Okay, okay, I'm coming."

  • My Donor   Chapter 4- I love her

    AmaijaAn hour later, we are walking through the mall downtown. Zara bought a couple of lingerie pieces and a teddy bear for the baby. She's also purchased a couple of gender-neutral baby clothes that look too cute to pass up. A little exhausted and hungry, we stop at an ice cream stand to get two cones."So, do you think Jaden will be happy if I show up in a trench coat and lingerie?" She's not yet done with her 'Jaden questions.' I sigh."What if you show up and he has someone over?" I ask.She shrugs, "I would just leave.""Wouldn't it break your heart?""No, I'm not in love with him... I'm just trying to see what that mouth does," she replies.I groan. "That is my brother, so I don't want to know that." She laughs."All of y'all are nasty, Mom and dad, Brin, you, every single one of y'all." She is still laughing as something, or someone, catches my eyes. I tilt my head to the side, staring at the person who looks a lot like Xoi. He's walking with someone, and his hands are around a

    Amaija“Oni-chan!” I whine. It’s been a week since I found out Xoi is a two-timing piece of shit. Since then, Jaden has discovered that the apartment Xoi films in—well, I own it. He bought it with my money, signed my name on the mortgage, and lives there with his girlfriend of five years.I was the queen of idiots in this relationship, but the worst part is that I miss him. How do I miss someone who lied to me and used me? I feel the tears coming again, but I push them away. He’s not worth my tears.“Oni-chan,” I call Jaden again.“Imoto?! Are you okay?”“Yeah, can you pass me the remote?” He frowns but grabs it.“Imoto, I have a lot of work to do,” he tells me.“Oni-chan, I need a hug.” He sighs, sits beside me on the couch, and pulls me into his comforting arms. After a moment, he pulls away slowly.“We changed the locks on your apartment,” he informs me.“Good.”“We also served them an eviction notice,” Jaden adds.“Good. I can’t believe he was such a piece of shit.” Jaden bites his

    AmaijaI’m lying on the couch in my apartment. It’s been a month since I moved back in, and all I do is go to work, come home, and watch movies. My family keeps bugging me to go out, but why would I? Everything can be delivered nowadays—everything except a man, that is. But I’m off those for the next few years.It’s Saturday, and I’m in the middle of my routine: ice cream and N*****x. I chuckle at a joke on the TV when the doorbell starts ringing. Ugh. I know it’s someone from my annoying family. They mean well, but trying to drag me out of the house every weekend isn’t helping.Ding dong! Ding dong!I turn up the TV; they’ll leave eventually.Ding dong! Ding dong!My phone starts ringing. I ignore it. It vibrates—a text from Brin. Ugh, not her. Anyone but her. She and Federico just got engaged, and while I’m happy for her, I can’t show it right now.“Open the door before I break it down, sis!” Brin yells from outside. I read the message, groan, and shuffle to my feet. Stomping to the

    EriqI sit naked, my balls freezing, as this man pays me to pose for him. How are we in the same profession, yet he can afford to pay someone while I can barely cover rent?“Higher—lift your leg higher,” Pavlo instructs.“This is as high as it goes, Pavlo,” I reply. He scowls, stands, and walks over, leaning in close.“Hey, hey, no touching,” I remind him.He smirks. “Having fantasies about me, Enrique?”“It’s Eriq, asshole. You’re the one paying to stare at my ass,” I glare back.“True, your body is a work of art. Now spread it wider.”“This doesn’t feel right. I already feel a cold draft on my balls,” I complain.“And what magnifique balls they are,” Pavlo says.I want to punch him in the face, but I’m two months behind on rent, my paintings aren’t selling, and I refuse to ask my parents for money again. So I clench my fist and follow his instructions. He nods, returns to his seat, and continues painting. Another hour of torture passes before we’re done.“Splendid!” he exclaims final

  • My Donor   Chapter 8- Telling Everyone

    Amaija“Are you sure about this?” Brin asks. I nod as we scan pages of sperm donation information. Krystel emailed me a couple of days ago. It’s been two weeks since I decided I want a baby, and so far, I’ve only told Brin.“I’m positive, Brin. Stop asking.” She sighs.“What if you meet Mr. Right, but you’re pregnant by some stranger?” she prompts.“If he’s Mr. Right, he won’t care,” I reply.“What man wouldn’t… Federico!” Brin calls her fiancé, who pops his head out of the kitchen.“Sì, bellezza?” (Yes, beauty?) He walks in and gives her a long, passionate kiss. Why did I even come here? I should’ve told Zara—we could’ve wallowed in our singleness with ice cream and N*****x.“Miele (honey), would you care if I were pregnant by another man when we met?” Brin asks.“Of course not, bellezza. You’re my soulmate. Even if you were pregnant, you’d still be mine.”“Ahh,” Brin coos before they kiss again.I roll my eyes—ugh, here they go. I should’ve picked Zara. “Can you two stop that?”“Stop

    EriqI grab the painting and bolt for the door. I’m supposed to meet the buyer in ten minutes, but I was up all night finishing it and overslept. “Fuck!” I snatch it and dash out as Glen climbs the stairs.“I don’t have time for your shit today, Glen. I told you no.” I brush past him, heading down to my car—a beat-up ’98 Charger. It was Dad’s until he gave it to me at sixteen. I was so proud of it, driving it everywhere until I got my bike. I still love it, but I miss the rush of riding.I slide the painting into the backseat as Glen approaches. “Come on, it’s easy money.”“For you, maybe. I don’t want a bunch of kids with my DNA running around that I don’t even know.” Having a kid means something to me—I can’t do it carelessly just because I’m broke.“The odds of someone picking you are low. You’re a broke art school grad—not exactly the model specimen these women want,” Glen says bluntly.“Thanks for telling me I’m worthless. Now I’ve got to go.”“That’s not what I meant…” I ignore h

    AmaijaOne Month Ago“We’ve been looking for a month. I don’t know why you’re so picky with donors when you aren’t that picky about who you sleep with,” Brin says. I roll my eyes as we pull into the parking lot of the latest sperm bank.“I’m making a human, not just getting off. I have to pick the perfect man,” I reply.“There’s no such thing as a perfect man,” Zara chimes in as we exit the car.“Trouble in booty-call paradise?” I ask, amused. She’s been singing a different tune lately.“Your brother’s an asshole. Can you believe he wants to sleep with other women?” Zara says.“He’s my brother, so yeah, I can believe it. He’s a great son and an even better brother, but a good boyfriend? Nope. You knew that going in, though.”“I know, but I thought—”“You thought your vagina would change him?”“No. Well, we have great sex. So why does he need other women?”“Jaden’s a manwhore. You need someone like my Federico,” Brin boasts.“Oh, will you shut the hell up about Federico already?” Zara s

Did you plan this after finding out who my family is?" I clench my fist as my anger builds—the nerve of this woman."Last night, you tried to sexually harass me," I say."Sexually harass?" she replies, furrowing her brows."Yes. First, you called me your baby daddy, then you tried to kiss me. Then you fainted. I couldn’t find anyone who knew you, which meant I had to leave work early—and let me tell you something, woman, I need all the money I can get.""I—""I’m not done talking. After I piled you into my car, you decided to pee because my car looks like a toilet. Then you started fighting my headrest, calling it Xoi." Her eyes widen as I continue.

    AmiPanic and disbelief crash over me as Brin’s words echo in the night air. Eriq waking up right then doesn’t help. He blinks, dazed, realizing Brin and I are half-carrying him between us.“Ami?” he mumbles, glancing at Brin.My heart races. Did he hear her? How’s he going to take this? Maybe he’ll be happy—I cling to that tiny hope. It’s not the perfect moment, but I was going to tell him eventually, so maybe this is fine.“The baby,” he says, reaching out to touch my stomach.“Eriq—I was going—” I start, but he leans in and kisses me. It’s soft, warm, and sends a whirlwind of feelings through me—confusion, surprise, and something deeper. Does this mean he’s okay with it?“Eriq?” I whisper as our lips part. “Are you…”“I love you.” He smiles, resting his head on my shoulder.Relief floods me, washing away my fears. His second “I love you” tonight hits me hard—he loves me, and he’s fine with being the father. It’s like a boulder’s been lifted off my chest, and the emotions I’ve been

    AmiWe stumble out of the tenth store of the day, bags in hand. I didn’t want to come out, but I’ve had a blast. Shopping and lunch with the girls felt amazing—it’s been ages since we’ve all been together like this. Now, though, I’m ready to head home and crash with my man. I wonder how he’s holding up. Dad promised to keep an eye on him, so I hope he’s okay.“Where should we go now?” Aunt Kenya asks, snapping me out of my thoughts.Where should we go? I frown. “I think we should head home. I’m tired, and my feet hurt.”“Tired?” Aunt Kenya raises an eyebrow. “You’ve been sitting most of the time. How are you tired? More like you’re itching to get back to that man of yours. You can survive a few more hours without him.”“Auntie!” I yelp, my face heating up.She laughs, loud and unapologetic, shaking her head. “You’ll see him soon enough. Come on, we’ve got five more stores to hit today.” She strides off.“Mom,” I groan as the others follow Aunt Kenya.“We’ll head back soon, sweetie. We

    EriqI can’t stop smiling as I peel the potatoes. Her mother likes me. I’ve got one ally in my mission to win over Ami.“Mom!” Jaden bursts into the kitchen, snatches the peeler from my hand, and glares at me.What’s his problem? He’s acting like he did the first time we met.“Mom, why didn’t you tell me you needed help? Why’d you ask him?” he demands, his eyes still boring into me.“I didn’t ask him. He offered. You can help if you want, but he’s already on the potatoes. Why don’t you make the dough for the fried dumplings?” Mrs. Klein suggests.“Okay, Mom.” Jaden tosses the peeler down, walks over to her, and kisses her cheek.I shake my head, bewildered, before resuming my task. We work together in near silence for a while.“Are you two done?” Mrs. Klein asks after some time.“Almost,” I reply, glancing at the potatoes. “Only three left. Anything else you need done?”“I’m nearly finished, Mom. You can have me do it instead,” Jaden says, rushing over with flour-covered hands.“You ca

    EriqI glance back at Ami, and sure enough, she looks worried. Our eyes meet, and I offer a reassuring smile before her mother pulls me away. Judging by Mrs. Klein’s warm attitude toward me, I don’t think this will be as bad as Ami fears, but I know she’s anxious for my sake. It means I hold some place in her heart, even if she doesn’t love me yet. That thought gives me hope—hope that soon I can tell her I love her. I’ve been holding back for weeks, and it’s starting to feel suffocating to keep those three words inside.“I bet he’s Asian,” someone says as we approach the family room.“No, this one’s white,” Jaden replies.“White? That’s new. How old is he?”“I don’t know,” Jaden admits.“I bet two hundred and fifty thousand he’s twenty-four.”“I’ll take that action.”“No, you’ve already met him, so you and Zara are excluded.” I chuckle, amused by their banter. They remind me of my own family. I guess all families are alike, no matter how much money they have.“So, 250—who’s in?”“Ahem.

    AmiI pull on my pants, then my shirt, and grab my shoes. We’re getting ready to leave for Jamaica soon. I frown. Two weeks with my overbearing family isn’t my idea of a good time, especially since I’m still a bit annoyed that Mom felt the need to blackmail me into going. She can be so frustrating, but I can’t stay too upset. Eriq was right—the entire family rearranged their schedules just so I could be there. Even if it’s overbearing, it’s sweet.I feel a gentle stretch at the corner of my belly, pulling me from my thoughts. I smile as I reach down and touch my stomach. Every time I feel them move, it fills me with joy. Our baby.“Daddy and I can’t wait to meet you,” I say softly. A sigh escapes me, my heart heavy with the secret I’ve kept. I haven’t told Eriq this is his baby. I meant to, but then his father got sick, and Mom changed the trip’s date, so the timing never felt right. I can’t drop this news on him and expect him to handle two weeks with my family at the same time. I’ll

    EriqI inhale deeply, trying to calm myself as I stare at the arrogant jerk smirking at me. I want to punch Flavio’s teeth in for what he pulled today. However, they outnumber me and are probably all armed. I glance at the three men in the room: one by the door, whom I recognize from the picture, and two others standing behind him.“Welcome to the family business,” Flavio says.“The family business is an auto shop, Flav. What the hell was that today?”“This is the new family business. Your little friend will remain untouched if you comply.”Anger surges through my body. I clench my jaw, resisting the urge to lunge at him.“I already told you I’m not interested in whatever nonsense you’re involved in. This isn’t the life I want to live.”“Are you living the life you want now? I’ve seen that pretty little thing you’re with. What will happen when she needs money for her hair or nails, but her boyfriend is broke?” I chuckle at the thought of Ami needing money from me.“You won’t find it fu

    EriqMy heart nearly stops. I sprint out of the room, ignoring Glen’s shouts as I race for the door. What if Flavio kidnaps her? I’ve never seen him physically harm anyone, but he once set my apartment on fire to get what he wanted. What else might he be capable of? I should’ve known better than to bring her here. I should’ve suspected he might be watching Glen. I should’ve moved away to keep her safe, but I stayed because I couldn’t bear to leave her. Now she’s in danger, and it’s all because I couldn’t stay away. If he touches her, I swear… I gritted my teeth as I bounded down the last flight of stairs and burst out of the building. I run to the car—she’s not there. I scan the area, but she’s nowhere in sight. Grabbing my phone, I dial Flavio’s number. He picks up after the second ring.“Where the hell is she?” I demand.“So, she is important to you?” he taunts.“I swear, if you lay a finger on her, I’ll bury you six feet under.” My voice shakes with a mix of anger and fear.“Finally

    “She did what? How do you know it’s broken?” Eriq asks, holding the phone to his ear. “Well, I’m in the middle of something. I’ll let you know.” He pulls the phone away as his friend’s voice rises in a frantic scream.“What’s wrong? Is it an emergency? We can cut our date short,” I offer, concerned.“It’s…” He hesitates, then presses the speaker button so I can hear.“Are you seriously going to leave me here?!” Glen shouts through the phone.“Yes, call your parents,” Eriq replies coolly.“I don’t want my parents to see me like this!”“Then call an ambulance. I’m busy. I told you to stop picking up random women.” I furrow my brows, puzzled. What does a random woman have to do with this?“She was hot, and you know our health insurance is terrible. I can’t afford the emergency room fee—especially after getting robbed,” Glen whines.“A woman robbed him?” I ask, stunned.“Yes, and she also, according to him, broke his, um…” Eriq trails off, looking uncomfortable.“Broke what?”“His… his… uh

  • My Donor   Chapter 33- Dates and Dicks

    Finally, Ami and I are going on a date. It’s a bit late considering everything we’ve already shared, but better late than never. I just hope she enjoys it. She’s accustomed to the finest experiences, and I’m certain this won’t measure up to some of the extravagant dates she’s been on. Still, I hope it’s enough because she deserves nothing less than the best. My smart, loving, tough cookie with a heart of gold. My little weirdo. The memory of her crawling into my room on all fours makes me chuckle. I couldn’t believe she was the one sneaking off with my shirts, but knowing my scent comforts her fills me with the greatest joy. It means she’s attached to me. Maybe this thing between us will grow into something more than a fling. For me, it already has, but I can’t quite read her. I know she likes me, yet I’m unsure how deep her feelings run. I want to ask, but I’m afraid of what she might say. I shake my head, pushing away thoughts of the future. I need to focus on the present and make to
