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

  • To Love You Hurts   You'll Never Be Able To Give Back What You'll Take From Me.

    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

  • To Love You Hurts   Utterly Useless.

    TOBIAS:My sedan comes to a screeching halt as I pull into Mattys’ driveway. Pulling the handbrake up, I don’t bother killing the engine and push the door open. Exiting the vehicle without slamming the door shut behind me, I race up the stairs, giving Link the death stare of a lifetime.“Where the fuck is she?” I growl, curling my hands into tight balls at my sides. Rage licks my flesh, setting every inch of it on fire. Without uttering a single word, he points to the door, indicating that she is inside. I bite down on my molars and shove my finger in his face. “You are fucking fired!” I bark in a breathy and murderous tone.So fucking fired!I vividly hear movement inside the house, like there is a struggle, followed by a muffled whimper and I spring into action, realising that my Keri could be in grave danger. I take one step back from the door and I kick it in. Link rushes inside, and my blood turns to ice when I see Keri pressed up against the wall with Matty trying to rip her pan

  • To Love You Hurts   Don't Leave Us.

    I slowly feel myself surfacing from the deep slumber that embraced me. Reaching across the bed, I search for the twins, and when I am met with air, I jolt awake in a frenzy as last night’s terror claws at my chest. I open my eyes, and my vision slowly adjusts in the darkness.“Tobias, is that you?” I whisper, squinting towards the far corner of a room that isn’t mine.Sitting in an armchair with the moonlight illuminating the room, Tobias is leaning forward with a bottle of Whiskey dangling between his wide-spread legs. He stares down at the bottle, tilting his head to the side as he swirls the amber-coloured liquid at the bottom.“Go back to sleep, baby.” He mutters in a soft tone, raising his head to meet my gaze. “It’s still early, and you need your rest.”I notice that he’s wearing nothing but a black pair of satin pajama pants. His hair looks damp as if he’s just stepped out of a shower, and the woody scent of his body wash faintly lingers in the air.“Have you been sitting in th

    TOBIAS:The soft caress of her lips is like a lifeline I desperately try to cling to. Warm. Soft. Sensual.I hate to think that this could be the last time I get to feel her like this as she passionately tries to kiss away my deepest and darkest fears. I’ll love her until my dying breath. It’s always been her, and it always will be. I am undeserving of her love, her warmth, and time.“Don’t speak… Just feel, Tobias. Use me for pleasure.”“Don’t say that,” I murmur, pulling away from our kiss. My gaze travels down her body, and she has no idea what the vision of seeing her in my clothes does to me.“I’m serious, Tobias. If now is all we have together. I want you to take what you need from me.”Lowering my pants down my hips, my cock springs free, and I watch through half-lidded eyes as she licks her lips like a starved little kitten looking for its next meal. She lowers herself onto her knees, gazing up at me, with the moonlight accentuating her natural beauty. I lean against the glass

    I shut my eyes, attuned to the strong and rhythmic pulse of Tobias’ heart, my body half entwined with his. His fingers glide softly up and down my spine as he lies on his back while his gaze remains fixed on the ceiling. We haven't slept; we've only been exploring each other's bodies on an intimate level, compensating for lost moments and creating memories that will linger for years ahead. I press my face against his chest, a deep sigh escaping my swollen lips as I cling to him with all my strength. I long for a chance where time could freeze, allowing us to savor the precious last moments that Kip has generously given us. The sun has risen, birds are chirping, and early morning traffic for churchgoers echoes through the room. There is so much I wish to say to Tobias, but I don’t want to ruin this moment. Though we showed each other how we felt about one another on a deeper level, using our bodies to express ourselves, I still feel like there is so much unsaid between us.“I want you

    As the front door to Kip and Elz home opens, I glance at Officer Marcus and give him a small smile that falls short of reaching my eyes – a silent expression of gratitude for his safe escort here. He offers me a brief nod, pivots on his heel, and walks away without uttering a single word.“Oh, my gawds, Keri!” El screeches as she yanks the door wide open and pulls me into her loving embrace.I lean into her, tears streaming down my face as my heart shatters further. I feel an overwhelming urge to express my emotions loudly. To express my frustration and lament that the universe and Gods have conspired against my happiness. Yet, I find myself without that feeling. I search within my soul to find my strength and muster the bravery to stand before the twins as they come rushing towards me.“Mummy, mummy… we missed you last night.” They say in unison as they fling their arms around me.El rubs my back as she gently pulls away from our embrace. Our eyes collide, and she utters the words, ‘

This time by choice.“You may now kiss the bri-” Before the priest finishes his sentence, I reach for my wife, crushing my lips against hers as I seal the deal between us. Keri smiles against my lips. “How does it feel to be a married woman by choice, baby?”“Perfect. How does it feel to be married and a father of twins?” She has a mischievous glint lining her eyes.“Like the lost pieces to my life have finally pieced themselves back together,” I reply honestly.I turn around and look at my children sitting beside one another with a large grin on their faces as they sit on the white chairs in the sand. Sawyer is holding a small bouquet of flowers, and Ryan, an empty small pillow that not long ago held our wedding rings. My gaze shifts further i

    TOBIAS:A persistent knock raps on the timber door, catching me off guard as I flip my steak over on the grill. Turning the BBQ off, I move my steak to the side, taking it off the heat so it won’t overcook. The banging on the door starts again, and my strides become larger until I reach the door and yank it open.“Why the fuck do you continue to bang on my-” The words fall from my lips when my gaze collides with Keris'.What the fuck is she doing here?How did she know I was here?Fuck… Fuck… Fuck…“Keri, I… Uh…”Slap!Before I can finish my sentence, her palm collides with the side of my face. Lifting my hand, I cradle my cheek, dampening the stinging sensation spreading across it. She looks pissed off. Like she could murder me, and I don’t blame her.“So, it’s true. You’ve been here for two months?” She hisses, enraged to find me here. In the same country and not behind bars like I should be.“Yes.” I state firmly, gritting my teeth.“You bastard!” She cries out, shaking her head. “

    THREE MONTHS LATER:“We need to reschedule today's’ meeting,” Mel looks up at me from her desk, sounding a little strange. “I’m not feeling well, and I need to go over the new contract Adem sent through for a new deal he wants to cut with us. I aim to be on my A-game before facing him.”“I can get Davis to come in and go over it with you? Two sets of eyes are better than one, and unfortunately, I’m still trying to get up to speed with everything going on as it is.”“Davis is unavailable today. He is at the hospital with Ava.”I know I shouldn’t ask, and I don't understand why I give a rat’s ass about her after all the grief she has caused me in the past, but I can’t help myself. “What’s wrong with my sister?” My voice sounds harsher than I had intended.Gnawing on her inner cheek, Mels’ brows furrow as she raises her gaze to meet mine. “She was standing on a chair, screwing in a light bulb when their oldest girl came running into the living room, accidentally colliding with the chair.

    “You need to stop being so hard on yourself, Keri,” El speaks softly, resting a gentle hand on my shoulder. “Under the circumstances, you have done a remarkable job with the twins, and one day, they will eventually realise that you have always had their best interest at heart. If there is one thing I know for certain, it’s that being a parent is a learning process, too. After you have given birth, you are not handed a parenting manual. You learn as you grow together as a family; sometimes, the road we pave isn’t easy. But it sure as hell is fulfilling when you reach the end of that bumpy road.”I take a moment to let her words sink in and wipe my eyes dry as I nod my head; agreeing with her. “You’re right,” I whisper, patting her hand that remains on my shoulder. “It’s been four years now, and I am still as clueless as I was yesterday on how to parent my children correctly.”“Everything that has transpired into this mess with Tobias and Coach Matty, isn’t your fault.
