To Love You Hurts You Owe Me That Much.
“Are you sure you are well enough to watch the twins?” I ask El, who is lying on the sofa with a heating pad on her pelvis. “I can always reschedule. It’s just my yearly check-up at the dentist.”She waves me off, “yes, go. It’s only my monthly cramps that Aunt Flow likes to bring with her during her visits.” She sighs, turning her head to look at me. “I’ll take some painkillers and the twins, and I will do some arts and crafts while you are gone.”I gnaw on my inner cheek, “are you…”“Keri, will you just leave already?” El sighs, sitting upright as she gives me a pointed look. “It’s just cramps that will pass soon. I’m not going to die, or let your kids run a muck.”I raise my hands in the air and slowly start to back away from her, “okay…” I chuckle.Now I know why Kip pops around home more than usual during the second week of the month. El is quite scary when she is on her period, and I hate to think what she will be like when she finally conceives.“Just make sure you bring me a l

Tobias staggers backward, and I press my palm over my thumping chest. My heart feels like it is desperately trying to rip through the layers of skin and expose its vulnerable state. Calmly, he picks up the fallen chair, sets it upright, and collapses into it. His gaze is trained on the floor in front of him as we remain still. The pair of us are too afraid to disrupt the silence between us as we try to figure out how we got here.I wonder if he is blaming me. Conjuring up scenarios in his head of me setting out to trap him to demand a substantial payout to keep my mouth shut. Surely, he wouldn’t be so foolish to think that after I haven’t attempted to contact him all this time.“I was told that I was infertile,” he mutters as his brows knit together.“You didn’t wear protection, Tobias. Not once, and El told me that if you…” My voice trails for a beat. “That if you were to ejaculate multiple times in a short span, there was a small chance that you had one or two good swimmers.”His ga

TOBIAS:It’s been two days since I returned from Australia.Two days after confronting Keri and hearing the words from her mouth. ‘The twins are yours, Tobias. You are their biological father.’The words swirl in my mind like a vortex sucking me in. You think you know someone and then bam… They do something that makes you question every little detail in your daily life. I haven’t been able to think straight, and I’ve pushed back every important meeting scheduled for today. Not only is Keri fucking with my mind, my business is taking a hit too.For a long time, I believed that I couldn't have children, so I didn't see the need to use a condom. It never crossed my mind to imagine myself as a father. After receiving the results, I handled the situation with composure and dedicated all my time to Landry Enterprises. I suppose you could say that I made the decision to nurture my company, guiding its growth and development into something indescribable.A large part of me is still in denial

I sigh, shaking my head, knowing that these two will clash like unbreakable links in a chain.“Why don’t you two sit down and watch some TV while Tobias and I step outside for a bit to chat?” I offer them a bright smile, pretending that I’m not secretly freaking out on the inside.“I don’t feel like watching TV.” Ryan says as he glares up at Tobias.Tobias turns his head to the side. He doesn’t utter a word, but I can sense that he is displeased with Ryans’ attitude, and I don’t want him to say something that will only upset Ryan further. To someone who’s looking in from the outside, Ryan would appear to be a spoiled little brat who needs to learn his place. But to me, he is being protective, earning his status as the man of the house.“Alright, how about you take the tin of cookies up to your room with Awez and do some arts and crafts?” I give him a pointed look.Please don’t start, kiddo…“I have some grown-up things that I need to address with Tobias.” I add, gnawing on my inner che

TOBIAS:I feel a chilling sensation coursing through my veins, making me shudder as I take my place behind the steering wheel. She truly gets on my nerves. Drives me delirious with rage. It's clear that she perceives my desire to be involved in my children's lives as a threat. If I had any intention of taking them from her, I wouldn't have bothered coming here. I'd be sitting in my office, effortlessly orchestrating the assigned duties of a team of lawyers.I’m not a heartless bastard. Well, not to the point where I could tear my children away from their mother because, even I know how it will affect them mentally. All I want is to be involved in their lives. Parenthood isn’t a part-time gig; it’s all or nothing, and I want to give them my all. I’ve already missed their birth, four birthdays, and four Christmas seasons with them, and she aims to make out that I’m the one who is being unreasonable here.Surely, I’m not the asshole!I accelerate out of the driveway, and the rear tyres s

“Run, Ryan, run!” I jump up and down on the sideline, clapping as I cheer Ryan on during his tag rugby game.The kid is incredibly quick on his feet. His speed is truly impressive, and his side steps are equally remarkable. I'm not surprised he still has both of his tags securely attached to his waist while most of his teammates only have one. He also looks truly adorable with his tiny boots and mouth guard securely in place. I thoroughly enjoy watching his matches every Saturday, engaging with the other tag rugby mothers, and bringing oranges for the boys to enjoy during the half-time speech delivered by coach Matty regarding their performance.“Hey, Keri…”I turn to the side and smile at Matty—Ryans’ coach. “Hey, Matty,” I say as I return my attention to the field. “I think it’s safe to say we have this game in the bag.”Matty chuckles, clapping his hands as he yells at one of the kids to move further down the field as he is standing offside. “I think you’re right,” he replies, shov

“But I want to have pizza with my friends,” Ryan whinges, kicking the back of the front passenger seat. “We always go out and eat when we win.”I sigh, looking into the rearview mirror, narrowing my eyes at him. I hate it when he gets like this. It reminds me of Tobias — always throwing a tantrum when things don’t go their way. After the little dilemma with coach Matty on the field, I think it’s safe to say that the line between our relationship has been blurred.Possibly burnt.“I want to have pizza with Tobias,” Awez pipes up, doing a happy dance in her booster seat. “I like him. He is kind.”A small smile tugs on the corners of my mouth. That’s typically Awez, always giving everyone the benefit of the doubt. She isn’t one to judge a book by its cover, and occasionally, I find myself wanting to be a little more like her when I grow up.“He’s not my dad!” Ryan growls, kicking the seat once again. “I have no dad. I won’t call him dad.”My eyes grow wide as I slam on the brakes, being m

After dinner, I entrusted the care of the twins to Elz and Kip. I shared with them the events that took place during Ryans' game and Mattys' actions. I suppose it's fair to say that my emotions are completely legitimate because they, too, were furious. Kip was determined to come out here and confront Matty personally, but I pleaded with him not to. I explained that it should be me who has a serious conversation with him.I've been waiting at the end of his driveway for the past two hours, pondering his whereabouts with growing impatience. He should have arrived home by now. The pizza dinners typically don't last this long, and I start to question if he's returned to the club to attend to some matters.I glance at my watch, and it's already past nine. I'll wait for another twenty minutes before giving up and deciding to return in the morning, hoping to catch him before he goes to church. Tobias never replied to my message earlier. I sincerely hope he doesn't believe I fabricated an exc
