The Third Time

Tris' POV

Age 26

Oh my God! Oh my God! Oh my God! I can't take this anymore. I know I said I would wait for Tobias to return from his business trip, but this waiting is killing me.

"Mommy," my daughter Savanah calls out for me.

"Yes, baby," I ask and pick her up. My two-year old daughter looks so much like her daddy, with her soft brown curls and her deep blue eyes.

"Wanna Cheerios," she says pouting. Damn, Tobias. This is all his fault; he gave her Cheerios and now she keeps asking for them.

"We don't have Cheerios," I tell her but I already know she'll start crying.

"But I wanna," she says and kicks a little with her feet. We would have to go to the supermarket and buy some. But maybe that isn't such a bad idea. I could pick up a test. Or more.

"How's that, peanut? We get dressed and go to the supermarket. Mommy needs to buy a few things and we can also get you some Cheerios. Sound good?" I ask her and her face lightens up.

"Yippy," she cheers.

I go upstairs to change her into a nice dress and hurry to put something on myself. Within twenty minutes we're already on road to the nearest supermarket. While in the car Tobias called, but I couldn't answer him, but once Savanah is in the shopping cart and we're inside the store I call him back.

"Hey, babe," I hear him say happy.

"Hey, honey. Sorry, I was driving earlier."

"It's okay. How are my girls doing?" he asks and I hear shuffling.

"We're at the supermarket. Savanah wanted some Cheerios, thanks by the way," I say sarcastically and hear him chuckle.

"What can I say? Like father like daughter," he says and laughs.

"Well, anyway. I still had to buy some stuff and decided to just grab her and get it over with. When are you coming home? We miss you," I say and look at my little girl who smiles up at me.

"Sooner than you think," he says ambiguously.

"Really? That's so great. Call me when you know for sure. I want to cook something special for you," I tell him but keep it to myself that we might be having another bundle of joy. I want to make sure first.

"Wanna daddy," says Savanah excited.

"Hang on, baby. Tobias, Savanah wants to say hi," I say and smile at my girl's antics.

"Put her on," I hear him say excited. He loves her so much. I don't think my children could have had a better father than him.

"Here, talk to daddy," I say and hold the phone near her ear so that she can hear.

"Hi, daddy."

"Hi, peanut. Are you a good girl for mommy?" I hear him ask her.

"Me very good. Daddy, I miss you," she says and pouts.

"Ow, I miss you too, sweetheart, but we'll see each other soon. I promise. And guess what?"

"What?"

"Daddy got you something," he says to her and she squeals in excitement.

"Wow, that was loud. I think the whole store heard her," I say chuckling.

"Yeah. Well, I let you to it then. I love you," he says.

"I love you, too."

"Love you, daddy," Savanah shouts and I laugh.
