'I'm doing this because they are also Ezio's children' I repeat this mantra to calm my nerves as I wait for him outside my building. I chose to wear a sun dress that hungs just below my knees and matched it with a pair of strappy sandals. I drank some water to calm my nerves but it didn't help. I don't know why am I so nervous about this. All I want is Ezio to be part of my children's lives and not mine . . yet. I'm not yet ready to be with Ezio because of what he had done to me. He broke me emotionally and mentally and I think it is best to be away with him for a few months until he can convince me he is better or we can part ways forever. Plus, I have a job that can support the twins. I know in myself that I can raise them without him and his help.
He arrived five minutes later, looking his old self with a simple white shirt and a pair of khaki chinos. He walked towards me and we gave each other an awkward hug before we climbed into his car. During the ride, he asked questions like what happened to me or is there something wrong when I was gone and I answered him honestly. We arrived just in time for my appointment and we got a curious look coming from my doctor. I shook my head at her and we both sat down in front of her.
After an hour of questions coming from Ezio and I, we headed back to his car. As we drive back to my house, I noticed that he kept on glancing at me, as if he wants to say something.
"Is there something wrong, Ezio?" I finally asked
"Nothing. Why did you ask?" he dismissed
"You kept on glancing at me like you want to say something. Are you really sure it's nothing?"
He looked at me for a second and back at the road. He exhaled slowly and asked
"I still want to take care both of you. I don't want to leave you alone."
"I manage to live by myself when I ran away from you Ezio. I only agreed with this because I still respect the fact that you're the father of the child that I'm carrying."
He sighed and glanced at me. Even it only took a millisecond, I saw the dull look on his eyes. I reminded myself that I will never fall on his looks again. I thought it is right thing to give him a second chance back then but now, I think he doesn't even want me.
"Okay. You still wan to eat? I know a place here." he glanced back at me, this time with a bright pair of eyes.
"I don't want to eat and I think I'm tired. Can you drop me back at home?" I answered. I think it's time to end this day with him.
"Okay but, is it okay if I ask you one thing?"
"Sure." I said nonchalantly.
"Are you and Karlos dating?"
