*Portman's POV*
School is going great! We have been there for about two months now.
My job is going great too.
The only problem is I'm not making as much money as I would like to make but it's enough to get by at the moment.
Having two kids and being the only source of income is a very hard thing but I think we're managing just fine.
I just can't wait to get my diploma so I can get a better job and Jules can get a job too.
She was thinking about going to college but that is out of the question now and she's ok with that. Well at least that's what she says.
I think it bothers her but she won't let me know.
"Dean can you go out and exercise the horses?" Mr. Gentry, the vet, asked.
"Sure." I said in response.
I hate the horses. They are so big and powerful!
I mean I would never admit it to anyone because they would think I was a wimp but I am really scared of horses.
This is the worst part of this job. Well except for cleaning up the animal's shit and puke.
*Julie's POV*
Taking care of these babies gets harder and harder every day.
Now they have got to the point where they cry at exactly the same time, are hungry at the same time, need burping at the same time, and even need a diaper change at the same time and I only have two hands.
Every day I can't wait for Portman to get home from work.
On the days when the ducks don't have practice one or two will come over and help me but today they have practice.
Well now I'm changing Miracle's diaper while Matthew is crying, waiting for his diaper to be changed.
And now there is a knock at the door.
Who would come over now? Portman would just come in and the ducks are at practice.
"Come in." I yell as I wipe Miracle's bottom.
"Hello Julie." I heard a voice say and froze as my whole body got tense.
That couldn't be who I think it is.
I turned around slowly to see my mother standing in the doorway.
"What are you doing here?" I asked putting my hands on my hips.
"Well it looks like you need some help." She said.
"Not from you." I said.
"I see you had twins." She said.
"You're kidding?" I said sarcastically.
"Why are you acting like such a bitch?" She asked.
I can't believe she just asked me that.
"First of all don't curse around my children, and second I would be asking you the same thing." I said as I turned my back on her to tend to Miracle again.
"I have been here for you my whole life." She said.
Ok now I'm really pissed off! I have two screaming babies and she has the nerve to come over here and tell me she has been here for me..I don't think so!
"Ok mom where were you when I was crying at night when you would come home drunk and scare me to death?" I asked now feeling tears coming to my eyes.
But I can't show her that it hurts me. I refuse to cry in front of her.
She began to open her mouth and respond but I cut her off.
"And where were you when I was a teenager dealing with boys and you sent me away to grandma's to live?" I asked. I really didn't want to bring back these old memories but I felt that I had to.
"Or when I was pregnant wishing I had my mom to talk to about what was going on with me, or at my wedding to see me marry the man of my dreams?" I asked.
She couldn't respond to this, she just shook her head.
"Now I want you out of my house!" I said as I pointed to the door.
"I am not going anywhere." She said as she walked so close to me that I could feel her breath on my skin.
"I think my wife said to get out." I heard Portman say as he came in the door and I smiled.
*Portman's POV*
I can't believe this woman has the nerve to come into my house after what she has done to my wife.
I was so mad at here that it was taking every once of my energy to hold myself back from pounding her face in.
I know she could tell that if she said a word to me that I would not be able to hold back any longer so she turned to walk to the door as I moved out of her way.
"Goodbye Julie." She said but the turned around one more time. "This is not over. I am going to have custody of those children. You and this piece of shit you call a husband aren't fit to be parents."
I was about to go after her now but Jules grabbed my arm and I held myself back.
She slammed the door and then Julie let it all out.
She began to cry and cry and cry. I don't blame her either.
All I needed to do right then was be there for her. Be there for her to lean on and wipe away her tears.
"You can go rest." I said as I tilted her face to look me in the eyes. "I'll take care of the babies."
"Thanks." She said and I wiped a tear from her eye as she turned to leave for the bedroom and I went and picked up Matthew to change his diaper.
AN: Damn I've created a monster and she is only going to get worse. PLEASE REVIEW because I love reviews!
