Hours Later
"Twins?!" I shouted into the phone pacing back and forth.
"God, I wish we could be there with you, Cath,"
"I know but we have our nightly FaceTime calls," she responded pulling a blanket over her head for more warmth.
I sat down at my desk and placed my phone down, positioning it so Catherine had a full view of my face, "Its not the same and you know it." I spoke, giving her a frown.
"I do...but we can't see each other in person, not yet."
"He's looking for me and I refuse to let u three be caught up in the middle again."
I let out a sigh and crossed my arms, "He's always gonna look for you, you're having his kids for fucks sake!"
"Sy..."
"Okay! I'll shut up about it...I just want to be there with you."
"You can't live without me for much longer anyways, I give it a month until I'm visiting you," I joked.
Cath laughed in response, "I'd give it two," she chimed in, before letting out a soft yawn.
"Lets end the call alright."
"No...Sy! I'm fine," Cath spoke, letting out another yawn when she finished speaking.
"Cath, you need to rest, I love you...sleep tight,"
She let out a groan but agreed nonetheless, "Sleep tight..Sy, I love you too."
I gave her a soft smile then hung up the phone, "Lena is going to freak out," I laughed to myself.
I stepped out of the elevator into the hallway of my apartment building, my arms loaded down with grocery bags. I had spent the morning shopping at the nearby store, stocking up on food for the week. I was still processing the news from yesterday's appointment that I didn't notice the paper wedged between my door until it fell onto the group.
I grabbed the paper and went inside to place the bags onto the counter. I put the groceries away and opened the note. The moment I saw what was inside my heart instantly began rapidly beating. Two words but they held so much weight.
