Our Father.

TOBIAS:I pull up next to the curb in front of the building, and I toss my keys to Benson to park it in the underground car park. I've had fuck all sleep, and I'm in the shittiest mood of all moods to be had. This is the last place I want to be, but there is a certain someone I need to speak with, and it requires a face-to-face conversation.“Have a great day, Mr. Landry.” Benson casually says as he makes himself comfortable behind the steering wheel. It's probably the highlight of his day parking my sedan. “You, too.” I walk in through the front doors of the building and stride to the bank of elevators. Tony, the attendant, gives me a polite nod as he pushes the button. “Good morning, Mr. Landry.” “Morning.” I stare at the doors as I straighten the knot on my tie. I can feel all eyes on me as I wait. Hurry up.“Beautiful day today,” Tony says, trying to make small talk so it's not awkward between us.But it feels very awkward to me. “It is.” I lean forward and press the button.

Mr. Landry.

Laughter and shrieks echo through my home as I playfully chase after two little ones, their tiny bodies free and unburdened. They find it absolutely hilarious when they escape from the bath, and I playfully chase them with clothes in my hands. I must confess, I enjoy it just as much. My little ones have reached the age of four, bringing immense joy and filling my heart with love beyond measure. Our home is a place of joy and excitement, where love permeates every corner.Ryan, being the oldest, possesses a striking resemblance to his father with his dark, wavy hair. He possesses a fiery and easily provoked temperament, displaying dominance and intelligence while also being incredibly attached to me.And then there's Sawyer. We affectionately refer to her as Awez. Despite her resemblance to her father, with her dark hair and big, round eyes, she possesses a distinctiveness that sets her apart. Compared to Ryan, she is small and has a calm and peaceful demeanor, with a very gentle and

No. Please...

I watch as Tobias and Davis make their way out of the chapel side by side with their heads hanging low. The sensation of grief and loss is painted across their features, revealing the depth of their pain.It was a lovely service. The chapel is overflowing with people who have shown up to pay their respects to the late Mr. Landry for the second time. Light chatter fills the open space as everyone steps out of the pillars to follow the half-brothers outside.“I'm curious to know if Janice buried an empty casket or if there was some other poor soul in there…”“Poor Tobias. He has been through a lot in his life to last him another two life times. He really was dealt a shitty hand, wasn’t he?”“They are half-brothers? Well, no wonder why Janice faked his death. She wanted to get her claws on everything she was entitled to. I would have done the same if my husband cheated on me with my sister…”I glance at Kip from the corner of my eye, shaking my head. It's truly astonishing how individual

Just A Bad Dream.

He stumbles back when his gaze stares at my screen, his jaw clenches as his brows knit together. “Mummy? Mummy… who is that man? He doesn’t look like our uncle?” My darling children cry out, confused and most likely scared. “Tobias… I…” “You’re a mother?” He spits out with venom as if it’s the most disgusting piece of information he has ever heard of. My shoulders sag with defeat as my chin touches my chest. “I… yes,” I whisper, too afraid to utter another word in case he uses it against me. “Are they…” His voice trails off as he passes me my phone. “When were you going to tell me?” He asks in a deep voice that sends a plague of goosebumps to erupt across my skin. I sink back against the door, overwhelmed by a flood of tears streaming down my face, consumed by sorrow. He is extremely upset, and I fear that he will take them away from me, leaving me powerless to prevent it. I lack the financial resources that he possesses to prolong this legal battle indefinitely, with the intenti

Mega-Crazy.

TOBIAS:I gaze out of my office window, holding my phone to my ear as I observe the bustling foot traffic below me. It has been a couple of weeks since I last saw Keri at my father's funeral. I was absolutely stunned to see her there. Seeing her casually socializing with Kip, wearing a smile on her face has left a lasting impression on me. It has stirred up intense emotions, making me feel overwhelmed with a strong desire to put an end to Kip's life. And I couldn't help but ponder, as the images of their children's faces lingered in my mind like an unwelcome memory, that they bore no resemblance to Kip or Keri. They resembled me and Sawyer in our younger days.Coincidence? I think not.It was clear as day that Keri was hiding something from me when I confronted her and Kip outside the bar.“What do you have for me, Link?”“You aren't going to believe this, but, Mrs. Landry is not involved in a romantic relationship with Kip Mason. Nor do they reside in the same household, and the chil

An Unwelcomed Visitor.

Attempting to inhale deeply only intensifies the tightness in my chest, leaving me feeling light-headed as a wave of unease crashes over me. I should have anticipated this inevitable moment after Tobias confronted me after his father's funeral. But I suppose I was somewhat foolish to think that Tobias would have willingly distanced himself from me once he discovered that I was pregnant and had deceived him by claiming that Kip was the father.Throughout my adolescent years, I discovered that when you inflict enough emotional pain on someone, they become accustomed to suffering, much like a physical wound. If you don't resolve the situation, it could have serious consequences, like bleeding out. Unfortunately, my relationship with Tobias only brings us both immense suffering.I'm well aware that Tobias shares my sentiments, and when life has taken control of you, inform of the tragic events that have unfolded. It’s near impossible to allow something so heart-warming, like love, fill th

F.M.L.

Tobias exhales sharply, frozen by the sight of Ryan. His chest heaves, his breaths coming in rapid, desperate gasps as he fights to fill his lungs. I can sense the overwhelming impact this must be having on him, and it's difficult to fathom the thoughts racing through his mind at this moment. But I'm pretty sure that all he wants is to put his big hands around my neck and choke the hell out of me.“Leave.” Ryan bellows, taking me by the hand, and he desperately tries to drag me back inside. “You made my mummy cry, and we don’t want you here.”“Ryan, darling, it’s okay. We don’t let our anger turn into violence," I say softly, squeezing his shoulders before I turn him around to face me. "Believe it or not, your mummy knows who this man is," I smile. "It’s okay; you can go inside and wait with Awez; she is probably a little upset herself.”Ryan turns his head to look at Tobias and they both glare at one another in a stand-off, their eyes narrowing into thin slits and their nostrils flar

A Restraining Order.

It’s been three days since Tobias showed up unannounced, and I’m hoping that he has come to his senses and returned to New Zealand. I’m so tired, the sleepless nights have been getting to me lately, and I’m so paranoid that I catch myself constantly looking out my living room window or over my shoulder when we are out in public.I steer the car into our driveway and notice a black sedan is parked up in front of the house. My stomach begins to churn, and my grip tightens on the steering wheel as the driver gets out of the vehicle and stands next to his door with a placid look on his face.“Who is that man?” Awez asks, rubbernecking out the window as I drive past him.Lifting the handbrake, I kill the engine and put the windows down to let enough air into the vehicle. “I’m not sure, honey girl, but I’m about to find out,” I say as I unbuckle myself and turn to face both her and Ryan. “I need you both to stay here while I talk to the nice man and see what he wants, okay?”Awez nods her h

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

I Hate You.

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
