I know I havent written in a month, but this story just came to me!
Hope you enjoy !
It had been almost 6 years since he left. He left us. He left me and his unborn daughter, which he had no knowledge about. I can only assume he was scared. So he left, he told Jasmine he was leaving, and he was gone.
Tomorrow is Kyrie Elsie King's 5th birthday. She is so excited for her big birthday party that will be held at our modestly sized house. She has met several Mai friends through Valentina and her "cousin" Jake, who is Jasmine and Jason's daughter.
Once I had Kyrie tucked in, I sat down on a big fluffy white couch, turned on the flat screen for the background noise, and thought.
However, my thinking was cut short by the doorbell. I sighed, but raced to get it, so that they wouldn't ring again and wake up my sleeping angel. I turned the handle and the door swung open to reveal a devastatingly handsome Alek.
He looked worn, sleep deprived, and nervous. "Alek?" I managed to fumble out of my mouth.
He looked down on me and breathed in with a hint of relief, "Chloe." We stood there looking at each other for God knows how long before he spoke again. "I, um… Can I come in?" Speechless, I nodded, and stood aside, allowing him to come in. I motioned for him to sit on the couch, and took a seat across from him.
"You left." I told him, making sure to keep all emotion out of my voice and face.
"I know." He sighed, defeated. "I was scared." I frowned. Scared of what? Obviously he caught my confusion, and he continued. "You were so distant the last month or so, and I thought you didn't want me anymore." He paused. "Was I right? Were you sick of me? Did you not want me anymore?"
I wanted to laugh at him, but the seriousness of his face forced me not to. "You were dead wrong." His eyes, the pools of chocolate, widened, and then he looked ashamed with a hint of confusion. "Alek, I was preg…" I was then cut off by Kyrie, who I hadn't noticed snuck up right behind me, her stuffed dog clutched tightly to her chest.
"Mommy?" She asked.
I smiled. "Yeah baby girl?" I noticed that Alek look hurt. He thought I moved on.
"Who are you talking to?" She asked in a quiet voice.
"This," I sighed, bracing myself, "is your father." One moment she was in my arms, the next she was bolting in to his.
I saw Alek look at me, obviously shocked, then he settled, and wrapped his arms around her. A look of pure love came over him, and he planted a soft kiss on her head. What I would give for one of those.
