Ava knew she couldn't tell him the truth because how could she tell him that she was not actually sick but had lies so that she would not see him but fate had been cruel because he had appeared at her front door instead, so she lied for the second time that morning. She was on a roll.

"I just feel under the weather. I think I might have caught a cold" she said, hoping he would believe her. He studied her as he seemed to consider her words, and then nodded.

"Oh it must be the day out at the tent. I hope you feel better soon" he said.

"Thanks" she replied, feeling guilty for lying to him but also knowing that she was doing it for the sake of her sanity.

She watched as he stood up, preparing to leave.

"I think I should go now, and give you some space" he said, and Ava nodded. She walked him to the door and opened it for him.

"Take care of yourself" he said as he stepped outside.

"I will" she replied, and he turned to leave. She closed the door, and leaned against it, her heart pou

    It was a blessing that her kids were till kids because if they were teenagers, she could only imagine the kind of trouble this situation would have caused.Ava and Ethan followed behind, walking side by side. Ava could feel the tension in the air, and she knew that they needed to talk. But she didn't know how to start. "So," Ethan said, breaking the silence. "How have you been?" Ava took a deep breath, trying to calm her nerves."I've been good, you know. Keeping busy with work and the kids." She said, trying to keep the conversation light. "That's good to hear. I'm glad you're doing well." Ethan said, and Ava could hear the sincerity in his voice. It made her feel a bit more at ease. "What about you? How have you been?" Ava asked, genuinely curious. She hadn't heard from him in a long time, and she wanted to know how he was doing."I've been doing okay. Work has been keeping me busy." Ethan said, and Ava could tell that he was choosing his words carefully. "But I have to admit, I

    The rest of the visit to the museum was spent in relative peace. They all enjoyed looking at the exhibits and learning about the art and the artists who created them. When it was time to leave, Ava felt the kids were sad and she herself didn't want the day to end, but she knew that it had to. Just before leaving she dragged Ethan aside, "We need to tell them that you're their Father" she said plainly without mincing words. The truth was that she didn't want to hide the truth from them anymore, especially now that they have met him."Okay Ava. I second that but are we going to do that here?" He asked, looking around at where they were starting outside the museum."No of course not. Maybe we can all go to my house. I believe they'll be more comfortable hearing this in their home than anywhere else" she offered and Ethan nodded."I think that a good idea" and with that they all piled into the car and headed back to Ava's house. Ethan was following her own car behind because he didn't

    She knew that they still had a long way to go, but she was hopeful that they would be able to heal and move forward together."Can we go play video games now?" Jason asked with a hopeful look on his face. Ava smiled. "Absolutely. I think that's a great idea. I think we could all use a little distraction." The kids cheered and ran off to the living room, leaving Ava and Ethan alone. "Thank you for telling them for me." Ethan said, his voice full of gratitude. "It wasn't easy, but I think it was the right thing to do." Ava said, feeling a sense of relief. "I know it was. I'm just glad that they seem to be taking it well." Ethan said, a smile on his face. "They're amazing and I believe that it's relatively easier because their still kids and I'm so thankful for that" she heaved a sigh of relief and Ethan smiled because he shared the same sentiment too."I think you're right." Ethan said. "And I think it also helps that you're such an amazing mother. You've done a wonderful job wit

    Ethan could not sleep when he finally got home because he was too giddy with excitement. Who would have thought that a mere visit to the museum with his nephew, Alex would result to him running into Ava and even reconciling with her to an extent. He was so glad that he had agreed to go to the museum with Alex because he had almost cancelled last minute because he was not feeling like it but because he already made a promise to his nephew, he had to come through and throughout their drive home, Alex didn't stop teasing him. The teenager was so annoying but Ethan was not going to deny the fact that he in fact enjoyed his company all the time."I like her you know" Alex said breaking the silence in the car."And I think you have to do everything in your power to make sure that you both don't remain any stupid friends" he said and Ethan glanced at him."What? You both are madly in love with each other and you know it" Alex shrugged his shoulders without looking at his uncle.Ethan didn'

    Continuation Jeff nodded his head in understanding. "I get where you're coming from, but don't you think that it's time for you guys to stop dancing around the subject and just be honest with each other about how you feel? I think that's the only way you can truly begin to rebuild your relationship." He said, looking Ethan in the eye. Ethan thought about what Jeff had said, and he knew that he was right. "You're right, I need to be honest with her, and with myself. I can't keep pretending that I don't have feelings for her, because I do. I love her more than anything but I need to take it one step at a time""I understand. You just be fine my man " "I will. So why did you call at such an odd hour?" Ethan asked with mock seriousness and Jeff chuckled."I was bored for a bit and I decided to call. This contract I just got is bursting my ass" he complained and Ethan laughed. He knew that when ever he complained about a job he got then it actually meant that he was having a lot of fun

She took a few deep breaths, and then she tried to get back to work. As she worked, she couldn't help but think about what had just happened. She was grateful that Philomena had come in when she did, and she couldn't help but wonder what would have happened if she hadn't. She shuddered at the thought, and decided to put it out of her mind.
