Hayley

I watch Xander’s Range rover until I can’t see it anymore. I think I’m in shock. I lift my hands and wipe my wet face with my fingers. I slowly turn and walk up the main staircase to my room. What have I done? My reasons for not telling him don’t even make sense anymore. The tears start rolling down my face again as I stare into the distance with unseeing eyes. Oh God what have I done?

Xander is the best thing that has happened to me. How could I have screwed this up so badly? I have to make this right. I grab my phone and dial Xander’s cellphone number. As the phone rings in my ear, I hear Xanders ringtone and turn to see his cellphone charging on the side table. He didn’t take his phone with him.

I fall back onto the bed and hold Xander’s pillow to my chest. Big ugly sobs rack my body. God how do I make this right? I am such an idiot. He

    Hayley I can’t concentrate on work. I think of Xander and I being at odds with each other and I randomly tear up. I thought him showing up this morning was a good sign but now honestly I don’t know. I’m actually scared about him picking me up later. What if he says he doesn’t want to be with me anymore? What will I do?Stop it Hayley. Stop playing the victim. Make him hear you. You were stupid but you didn’t do anything maliciously. When he calms down he will see that. God I miss him so much. I miss him holding me and sleeping next to me.I thought work would distract me but its even harder trying not to cry around people. I could see a few people looking at me funny and I had to lie about my eyes being swollen due to allergies.I spend the whole day at work being miserable. Even the busyness of the lab isn’t enough to distract me. When home time

    Xander Seeing the doc, makes the whole drugging episode so real. He asks us to take a seat as he retrieves the results from his bag.“Hayley, I know you are in the medical field so I will let you take a look at this.”Hayley takes the medical report from the doctor and slowly goes through it. Her eyes widen on something and I can tell the change in her demeanour means its something serious.“You did a Beta-HCG test?”“Yes dear its standard practice in a case like yours.”“Wait. What’s a beta-HCG test?”Hayley keeps quiet but the doc responds, “It’s a pregnancy test Xander.”“A what test?” I say looking at Hayley.“Congratulations son, your wife's pregnant.”

    HayleyDr Guzman recommended a few gynecologists. I chose the only female one, because there was no way I was letting another male down there, especially with Xander in the room.Todays my first ultrasound and I am so nervous. I look around the doctor's room. The weird looking sterile stainless steel equipment makes me want to cringe. Xander follows my gaze and I see him trying to figure out where it goes and he looks horrified. If I wasn’t so horrified myself I would probably laugh.Doctor Simone Belle walks in all smiles. I like her. She is very approachable and knowledgeable and I feel at ease in her presence, knowing I’m in good hands.“Mr and Mrs Dominic,” it’s so nice to see you again. How have you been?”“I've been well Dr Belle, just anxious to see this baby.”“Then let’s no

    HayleyThe sky is dark and the stars are out before everyone finally heads out. To say I am tired is an understatement. I am emotionally and physically drained.

So on what should be one of the happiest days of my life, I am plagued with insecurities.Like everything else he does, Xander has embraced being a dad. It’s heart warming how excited he is.

    HayleyXander and I end up having a heart to heart on the way to work. I take him up on his offer to ask as many questions as I want to and truth be told it really helps me get to know my husband on more than just a physical level. I finally feel like I have a right to know these things about him just like he has a right to question me.I ask about his family because I only know what Gran told me. I wonder if he remembers his parents because I am in my twenties and I know losing my mum would crush me. What about a five year old boy losing his parents? What must that feel like?Xander tells me how he barely remembers his parents. His whole life has always revolved around Gran being his only family. He explains that while he only remembers their image from photographs, he remembers the way they made him feel…loved.

    HayleyMy last day at work is bittersweet. I have been coming to this job almost everyday for years, since I’ve finished campus. I did want to leave before…but for a better job, I never dreamed I would be in the position to leave just because I could and still be financially secure.If I weren’t so financially secure, I don’t think I would be as cool about having these babies as I am, even with Xander around. I would probably be stressing about how I would afford medical bills, diapers and formula. The list would probably be endless because I am the type of person that likes to be prepared. Now, thanks to Xander that load is off my back.Even though it is my last day at work, I don’t get to do much relaxing because the lab is so busy. The lab managers had a month’s notice but they still haven’t found my replacement and it makes me feel sad for my co-workers. Walking away from here, I actually count my blessings.About an

    HayleyThe door swings open and I freeze in shock. I expect to see Tash but standing in the doorway with a bottle of water is not Tash but Keith and not just any Keith, but a very badly beaten up Keith. I barely recognise him.“Whoa, what are you going to do with that?” he says, pointing to the statue and holding his hands in the air as if he comes in peace. I stare at him for a moment, still in shock not quite knowing what to say.“Keith, why am I here? Where’s Tash?” I croak out, my voice cracking from the dryness of my throat. I raise the statue in my hand higher as he takes a step closer.“I will answer all your questions Hayley but I think you need to drink some water first,” he says as he offers me the bottle of water.“What? So you can drug me again”“No. I won’t do that again. I’m sorry. It was necessary at the time. Look…,” he says opening the bottle and taking

    Hayley“So how does it feel knowing you don’t have to go to work today or any other day for that matter?” Xander asks me as we lie in bed exhausted from a very intense round of sex.“Surreal. It feels surreal…You’re not going to the office today are you?”“Is that a serious question? Ofcos I am not going to the office. There’s no way I am leaving your side for the foreseeable future beautiful, especially not after yesterday. I don’t ever want to feel like that again.”“How did you guys find me?

    HayleyAfter Amanda dropped the unexpected bombshell, we pestered her to no end for details.Eventually she said, “All I will say is that he doesn’t know what he wants. Not all women are prepared to settle for crumbs. I deserve better than that.”With that cryptic statement we all looked at her a bit dumbfounded, wanting to know more but not knowing how to ask. My sister in law, never one to be shy, tried to prod a little more but that was all Amanda was prepared to say.“Guys can we please change the subject, I don’t know why I even opened my mouth”“You opened your mouth because you needed to get it off your chest. I for one am glad you did,” replied my sister in law.I had been stuffing my mouth with mini pizzas and hadn’t said much until now, busy trying to digest my food and what could

Xander is about to tell her to be careful with me but I shake my head to indicate no to him and he keeps quiet.“Child I am too old for this. You and Helen both in one day…” she cries on my shoulder.“It’s okay Hannah. Don’t cry. Gran and I are both fine” I say as I gently rub her back. “Can we go inside now? Whatever you made smells divine and I am starving.”Chef smiles at that because she loves feeding people.“Xander said Zola wouldn’t eat. Has she eaten anything yet?”“No she hasn’t but I suspect that will change now that you are here.”“Poor baby let me go feed her before everyone gets

    HayleyThe doctor kicks Xander and I out after allowing us a quick minute with Gran.When we leave Gran’s room, I notice that everyone in the waiting room has already noticed the commotion in Gran’s room and are looking at us with huge grins on their faces.“I can’t believe that worked,” says a stunned Xander beside me.“Me neither!” I grin back at him.“Is your Gran really awake?” Amanda asks Xander.“Yes. Thank God.”The atmosphere is so different from just a short while back. Everyone is happy and chatting. I almost can’t believe that so much has happened in the last few hours. I am just glad everything is the way it should be now.When the doctor comes out to speak to us, the room goes quiet as we wait to hear what she h

Xander introduces me to his friend Carlos, whom I only saw in passing at our wedding.The guys leave Xander and I to take one of the Range Rovers, while they squeeze into the other two cars parked on the tarmac at the airstrip.“Xander this is ridiculous. Some of them can come with us. We have so much space.”“Don’t worry about them. They will be fine. Besides, I don’t want to share you with anyone just yet.”“How are my babies? I can’t wait to see them.”“They are fine. They missed you too. Especially Zola. Chef called me to tell me she wouldn’t eat…and you know how much she loves food.”“Oh no. My poor baby.”&ldquo

Just held onto me so tightly as if his life depended on it.When we enter the plane, Dr Guzman is already waiting for us. Xander places me down gently on a chair that’s already in the reclining position.“Hi Dr Guzman,” I say smiling at the worried looking doctor.“Haley my dear, I am so glad you’re okay. I was worried sick about you. Are you hurt? Are you dizzy.”Xander is still silent. He is standing behind the doctor paying careful attention me.“Erm…I am not feeling dizzy anymore. Whatever he gave me is starting to wear off.”I notice Xander’s jaw clench but I have to tell the doctor about the fall. I am worried about the babies.

There has to be a car around here somewhere.“I didn’t go through all this trouble just to let you go so easily honey."I hear Keith’s voice from the open doorway. There is a trickle of blood running down his forehead but it doesn’t seem to bother him. I quickly turn, feeling dizzy again, to see him pointing a gun at me.“I’m going to let what you just did slide and put it down to shock but don’t you ever fucking do that to me again Haley. I promise you, you won’t like the consequences. Now get your ass back in this house or I will drag you back.”I want to tell him to fuck off but I haven’t regained my strength and I still
