My triplet brought me a husband Chapter 73
73: DiamondOn seeing Shirley, I stopped in the doorway leading to the living room and kitchen. She looked like she was multitasking between making mashed potatoes and baking cookies. It's been over five years since I last saw her, and five years later and five years older, she was still as hardworking as ever. Shirley carried this warmth around her, the way she speaks, the way she smiles, the way she makes everyone feel welcome. Although I hadn't really spoken to her after the whole drama that came along with the divorce, but the few times we saw, she wore a look of apology on her face and told me every time in the days leading up to the finalization of the divorce and the divorce itself that she was sorry about what Lennox did. Something that Lennox had never said then. She was the only one that felt and knew that I had truly been wronged. Everyone just went about the whole thing like it was normal for a married man to cheat on his wife with his wife's sister and even go as far as i

LennoxEvery July 4th, I had the job of picking out the wine from the cellar. It was something my father used to do when I was little but now, all grown up, he delegated the duty to me because I could now tell the difference between good wine and bad wine. Not that we had any bad wines in the cellar, my father always got the good stuff and saved them for special occasions like today. As I was browsing through the merlots, I stumbled upon a bottle my father and I had popped the day before I was to get married. I don't know why he had wanted to attend my bachelor's party, but he was so keen on it. I would have brought him along but my friends weren't really digging the idea of my father going with us to a club of strippers and what not. So, on the night before my wedding, he brought me out to the pool side and with a bottle of Quereu merlot, and he made a toast to a long lasting and happy marriage. We spent two and half downing glass after glass of wine as he educated me on the best

DiamondI never envisaged this day panning out like this. Sure, I knew that being in the same space with my ex husband and his family wasn't exactly ideal but I resigned to not think about it, move past and focus on doing something for Karl who has been nothing short of a very helpful friend to me. But the day had barely even started and here I was, trapped in a cellar with the one person I'd rather not be trapped in. At the thought of spending even the next minute alone with Lennox in the cellar, I shook my head and began banging on the gate. “Is anybody there?” I screamed at the top of my lungs. “Can anybody hear me?”Lennox threw his head back and groaned out in frustration. “I have told you, Diamond. Nobody can hear us. Everybody is outside and the only person indoors was my mother who is probably smoldering my brother with her hugs right now. Plus, even if she was in the kitchen, it would take a miracle for her to hear you. That's why it's called a cellar, it's below the build

DiamondMy heart was racing in my chest as I listened keenly to Lennox. I wasn't supposed to be feeling this way, I knew too damn well. But I couldn't control how my heart was palpitating as I anticipated what next he had to say. Was it going to make me feel better if he said he still had feelings for me? Was it going to somehow undo everything he did to me? What even was I expecting to happen? That he would leave his wife for me? Wait, no. Did I want to get back together with Lennox? I had never for once considered the possibilities of any of these questions. Ever since I came back to New York, the goal had been to stay away from Lennox because I needed to protect my children from him. Protecting my heart was never the question because why would I go back to a man that cheated on me? Why should I still feel anything but hate towards him? As the saying goes, fool me once, shame on you. And if you fool me twice, shame on me. Yet, with all of these thoughts, my heart seemed to have a m

LennoxI felt my heart constrict in my chest when I turned back to see Karl kissing Diamond. Though that wasn't what hurt me the most. Five years ago, I was angry at myself for doing such a despicable thing to such a beautiful and kind woman. And after Tim said these exact same words, I knew that it was time to tender a real apology to Diamond. For some reason, I thought it would have been easy—not rendering the apology, but her forgiving me. Maybe it's because I imagined she had moved on, considering she had three kids now. I didn't stop to think of how I might have felt if I was on the other side of the fence. And Diamond did a very good job spelling it out for me. To say I was disgusted and disappointed with my actions back then would be an understatement. But I always said that saying sorry couldn't fix everything and maybe this is one of the cases. I felt a pang in my chest at the thought that Diamond might never forgive me. I had no idea how much I had hurt her until she expl

Diamond Lennox didn't seem too enthusiastic about me playing football. Or maybe he didn't like that I was on the same team with Karl. Or maybe the little reminiscing we did down at the cellar shook his mood. Anyways, I tried not to care. I was handed a blue t-shirt with the number, 7, body written at the back. There were always enough shirts printed in different sizes just in case anyone decided to play; just like I did this year. Since I was on the blue team, the ever competitive Jeremy was the captain. We huddled up in one corner as he began to dish out instructions and talk tactics. “Diamond, you're going to be the wide receiver.” He said to me and I nodded in affirmation.I have never played football before but I have watched enough of it to know that the wide receiver’s duty is to catch passes in the area. Surely, that can't be too hard. “So here's going to be the game changer,” Jeremy continued. “Diamond, as much as you're on the side, I'm going to need you to alternate bet

DiamondFor the next few hours I was at the villa, I tried as much as possible to avoid Lennox. After the game, we headed to the dinning in the backyard and had the meal of our lives. It was the perfect comic relief following the intense game, and the intense interactions between Lennox and I. After eating, we played some games and talked about life with one another—though nothing too serious. At the start of the day, I was regretting saying yes to Karl. But into the picnic, I found myself enjoying every bit of it. At about 7pm, the guests began to troop out. Considering my ride was with Karl, I had to wait for him to be done catching up with his parents who hadn't spoken to him in a long while. So I went to the pool area which was empty, rolled up my jeans and put my legs in the water as I sat by the edge of the pool. With a glass of wine in hand, I hummed along to the music playing in the background. I was enjoying that moment of peace and quiet until Lennox waltzed into the area.

Lennox The holiday was over and we returned to work in the hospital. Today was the day the senator's doctor was coming in so Diamond and I didn't have any classes. We planned to do a study session later, now that that patient was within close proximity and study, but that was just about it. The day was smooth sailing, there were no emergency surgeries, just a few minor ones. I didn't have so many patient rounds that day. With some scheduled patient consultations, and review of some medical records, I waited patiently for when the patient would come in. At about 2:30 pm, a nurse knocked on the door to my office. “Dr. Winthrop,” she called and I looked up from the files on my desk. “The senator and his daughter are here.” “Okay, thank you, Amara. I'll be down in a few minutes.” I closed the files and arranged them in one corner of my desk before going down to receive the senator. Diamond was already at the reception doing the formalities when I showed up. “Good afternoon, Senator
