All this time I've heard nothing, and he just shows up here? I was speechless. I didn't know whether to run to him or to be absolutely pissed. I was concerned about him, so I allowed my eyes to glance over him quickly. Bags were under his puffy eyes, his dark brown hair was a mess. He looked just as emotionally exhausted as I did.
"What the hell?" I managed to say. I felt my dam ready to break at any second now my emotions started to become overwhelming.
"I'm so sorry Kellin." He took a step toward me and I took a step back.
"Why? Why did you leave me all of a sudden? And with no explanation." I asked, blinking back tears.
"My uncle passed away, and after high school he wants me to continue the business. Apparently he was really sick, and didn't tell anyone. At the same time the hard realization of our triplets hit me. I didn't know what to do, or how to feel." He explained, looking down at his feet avoiding my gaze.

"Why didn't you talk to me?" I sniffled, my bottom lip trembling.
"I didn't know how. I wasn't in the right headspace either, I'm so sorry, Kellin." I bit my bottom lip, shaking my head as I looked away.

So that's it? That's why he's decided to disappear for this long? How am I supposed to be sure he would never do this again? When the babies are here that's it. If he did this to me again when they're here, I don't know if my heart could take that. I don't want my kids to witness that.
"I don't know, Vic. You really hurt me. You did something you promised you'd never do, and now it's hard for me to trust you." I explained hugging myself continuing to look away from him. It was so hard not to burst into tears right now, but I didn't want to break in front of him.
"I swear I'll never do it again Kellin. I thought about it, and I came to the realization how dumb I was to do what I did to you." He explained further. As much as I wanted to be in his arms, I needed time now. I need to think about what's best for my babies. I'm not bringing them into this world with an unstable relationship.

"I need some time to think for myself. I'll talk before the babies get here, but I need time in between that." With those words I don't bother to stick around for any longer, "Bye Vic." I walked back inside, ignoring his attempts to get my attention as I shut the door behind me. I could hear him knock against the door but after a few moments of me standing silently, I could hear his footfalls leaving the door. I felt my legs almost give out from underneath me as I leant against the door with my hand on my chest. My emotions couldn't be held back anymore as I hiccuped, and a sob sounded from my lips. Tears streamed down my cheeks as I hugged myself tighter for even just an ounce of comfort.

"Kellin?" My mom asked tiredly. I had forgotten she was napping, and I was being louder than I intended to. "What's wrong?" She asked, seeing my hysterical state.
"Vic came to the-the door, and tried to apologize, but I turned him away. I don't know if I can trust him," I admitted before more sobs escaped from lip chest.
"Oh Kell.." She pulled me into her hold, "Come to the couch. You can cover up with my blanket, and I'll get you water and tissues. Do you want anything to eat? There's left over cookie dough in the freezer, I can bake it?" She questioned.
I shrugged, sniffling and wiping my tears away.
"Everything's going to be alright sweetheart," She told me as we walked over to the couch. I was a mess all over again. I didn't realize how much seeing him in person would actually tear me apart. I wanted nothing more than to be with him, but I couldn't. I knew it wouldn't feel right, right now.
"Thanks mom," I muttered before she got up.
"Of course. You can watch whatever you want Jen's still passed out." She lent down and placed a kiss on my head.

The next day I had school, so I had to peel myself out of my covers. No matter what, I've made a commitment to the babies that I would stay in school and provide for them as much as I could after they're born. I clutched my books close to my chest, laughing softly at the joke Tony had just made. I've been hearing Vic is back in school, and I've been doing my best to avoid him. I've been doing well at masking today, and if I saw him he'd probably break me again.
