"We should get married"
"Umm, usually when someone opens the door for you early in the morning, you lead with good morning, definitely not we should get married" I say while opening the door wider for him to enter into the house.
"Jess, it makes a whole lot of sense for us to get married. It's the logical solution" he continues.
I thought he would end the conversation with how I responded but I guess I didn't make myself clear."Since there wasn't a problem to start with, i do not see how we would need a solution" I state.
"I talked to my lawyer yesterday and he said..."
you got to be kidding me, a lawyer?"Wait what?you talked to your lawyer?why?if you think you will get my kids you have another thing coming" I shout at him.
"Now hold you horses Jess, he is my brother and naturally i talked to him after I left, I guess I should have said I talked to my brother instead. Well he is isn't blood related but he is kind of my brother.But anyway I wanted to update my will that's all. No one is taking OUR kids, but here is the thing I do not want to be a weekend dad or a holiday dad so its either we get married or you become the weekend mom because I'm definitely not going to be the weekend parent got that?" Can this man stop talking already.
"Umm, I do not know what to say honestly"for once i am speechless, do men actually listen to themselves when they are talking? How did we even get here.
"Well i have a lot i want to say, the kids have to do a DNA test also, its legalities really, so we can run down to the courthouse in a few days get our marriage license then tie the knot" now this guy is getting ahead of himself. I want to get married to someone I love not a marriage of convenience.
Besides that, does he think everything that happened before can just be swept under the rug and we move on like nothing ever happened between us."I just envisioned I would be hopelessly inlove with my husband when i do get married, so i am definitely not getting married because you feel insecure about your place in your children's lives"
" Well there is no reason we can't have that in the future, but for now think of the kids."
"You want me to sacrifice my entire life and future to appease you?are you serious right now?" I say.
"Spare me the dramatics Jess, its hardly a sacrifice, in fact I'm the one who is sacrificing a whole lot by asking you to marry me. So be a good wife and go get the kids. I did say i was taking them to school today"
"Wow, the audacity of this man, i have been wondering were the real Damien is. He has finally come out to play huh. Let me say this, I will never marry you even if you were the last man on earth, even if i had a gun to my head, i would still not marry you Damien. Do you hear the words that are coming out of my mouth not after everything you put me through"
I exclaimed."Stop acting like the victim here, I thought we were past all that drama from the past Jess. You also betrayed me Jessica, you were not the only one who suffered back then so just get off that high horse"
I am honestly over this conversation so i think its best i just change the topic. I am not getting married to someone who does not care about anyone but himself.
"Well the kids go to school at 9am and its 0615 right now. Why didn't you just get here at half 8 or something. they aren't even up yet"
"Well i wanted to spend some time with them before they went to school, i should have considered they were still asleep"
"Well since you are here and you want to be so involved in their lives go into the kitchen and prepare their lunch boxes.
Check the fridge door to see what they eat today. I'm going to take a shower before I wake them up."
