"Mister Min, can I please see you in my office?"
"Coming"

I stood up from my desk and walked down to my boss's office 

"Yes ma'am?" 

"Come sit" she smiled, I walked over and sat across from her "you put in for paternity leave in two months?"

"I did" I nodded "my girlfriend is due in two months, and we're having twins. So I also asked for an extended paternity leave. It's going to be difficult for both of us to adjust, and more so her if I'm not home to help, or to bond with my babies"

"Okay" she nodded and smiled wide "That's so cute! Are you guys excited?"

"We are" I nodded with a smile "a boy and a girl" I chuckled making her laugh 

"Awwww that's awesome! I'm happy for you guys, I definitely approved the paternity leave, and now that I understand the need for the extension, I'll approve that as well" she nodded 

"Thank you ma'am, I appreciate that" 

"Call me Chelsea, please" she smiled and waved me off 

"Okay, thank you Chelsea, I appreciate it. I'm sure my girlfriend will too" I chuckled 

"No problem! You can go back to work now while I email HR about it okay?"

"Thank you" I got up and walked out of her office, closing the door behind me, I sat at my desk and pulled out my phone

Gorgeous😍: I knew there was a reason I love you ❤❤❤❤ 
Me: love you too, I'll be home soon hopefully. 

I hated working in the office. 

I never wanted an office job, I preferred working from home with my own schedule, my own clients, my own software. Sitting in the office all day, or running out to some business or house for some dumb twat that doesn't know how to reboot a computer or watch porn without catching a virus, made me feel suffocated, and under appreciated. But then I'd look at my lock screen and remember why I was putting myself through the torture. A picture of Reina, smiling wide with a sonogram picture of our babies. 

She was in her pajamas, hair a mess, sitting on our bed, and she looked so fucking happy that it took my breath away. 

Those three, are the reason that I can sit at my desk in the office all day surrounded by strangers, and working with people that don't even know how to take a motherboard out properly. But the extra ten dollars an hour will help us take care of our children and I don't need anything else. 

"Wow, it looks beautiful" I smiled as I walked into the nursery

"You think so?" She stepped back to look at the wall with me. She decorated, and painted the nursery all by herself. I wanted to help, but I couldn't give her as much time and energy as I wanted because of my schedule. 

"I do" I smiled as I pecked her lips "you've outdone yourself"

"Tae had to come help me with putting the cribs together. But aside from that I did it all on my own" she smiled wide 

"Good" I kissed her again "your peanut butter is in the cabinet"

"Fuck yeah!" She threw her fist in the air, one of the babies kicked her and I laughed as her excitement turned into her doubling over and cursing me out for my child hurting her
