Well, you didn’t cook the most delicious food for me,” he said.

Well, | was your girlfriend, not your wife,” | retorted, cracking eggs in a bowl, and putting them on the pan.

“Wow,” he murmured.

“You and Mummy are not married?” Solara frowned. Oh boy.

No,” | answered when Ellis didn’t.

But why?” she started to look sad,” And how are we here if you are not married. My best friend, Cia, said mommy and daddy need to be married to have a baby,” she said, looking between us.

Are we adopted?” Cayden looked mortified.

No!” Ellis and | said at once.

‘Look, | wanted to marry your mommy so badly, but | did something/ really bad, and she was angry at me and went away. | deserved it,” he said, taking all the blame. | didn’t avert my gaze when he looked at me

Do you still want to marry, Mommy?” My beautiful princess asked me. Her big blue eyes were looking at me, waiting for a response. | could hear Love’s heart racing in her chest. | looked at her as | gave

my true answer.

“Yes, | want to marry your mommy,” | answered. It was true, | wanted to marry Love. | wanted to be with her not because she is the mother of my kids but because | love her. It was the place my heart wanted to be forever, by her side.

Solara clapped, ” | can’t wait for you to marry my mommy, Daddy!”

What she said registered to me, and I’m lost for words. | look at Love for help. That is what she meant by obscuring the kids. “Lara, it’s not like that now,” Love said carefully. She gave me a startling look that always made me contemplate my actions. | gave her sorry eyes, but | wasn’t remorseful for telling my children the truth about how | felt.

How about this? It’s complicated for now,” | said.

So you won’t marry mommy?” Cayden asked.

We don’t know yet, but I love you so much, and I'll be here for you, always,” | told him. | glanced at Love, and she quickly turned her gaze away. The kids had a million questions. We answered most of them. We ate breakfast and talked about other topics. The kids wanted to go to Disneyland, and | promised to take them with Love, which earned me a glare from Love.

something bad always seemed to happen. On our last trip together, she was chased by a white turkey, and the previous one, she threw up after each ride. It was worrying but hilarious, especially when a bird chased her.

I'm not going with you,” she said solemnly.

Come on, don’t be that way,” | jested, | was holding back my m uff le. It was such a funny scene when the turkey hunted her through the

crowd.

What happened? Why don’t you like Disneyland, Mommy,?” Cayden asked. Love snapped her head away, angry at the recollection of that day.
