genesis began to worry once Nate decided to not speak to her for the rest of the day. atleast, that's what she thought.
he would just look at her then go back to what he was doing.
he was sitting on the couch, watching tv. that was when Genesis sat next to him just a seat away.
him on one side, her on the other.
"I like this show... don't you?" Genesis turned her head to him but he didn't show any emotion, nor did he speak or do anything physical.
"you're right, I should know if you like this show. I'm your wife." genesis chuckled.
"are you?" Nate raised his brow. he turned to look at her with his elbow on the arm rest, his hand on his cheek with his fingers spreaded.
genesis furrowed her eyebrows.
"of course I am." Genesis nodded. "unless you've forgotten the last six years."
"I've forgotten?" Nate scoffed.
"what's with you?" Genesis asked.
once Nate didn't answer, Genesis sighed.
"did you take the day off? it slipped my mind that you're not at work."
"I stayed to make you were alright." he said blankly.
"that's sweet ba-" Genesis went to reach for Nate's hand that laid flat on the seat next to him, however he removed it so she wouldn't touch him.
"Nate... what's wrong?" Genesis asked.
Nate reached to the floor, picking up an open box of pregnancy tests.
Genesis closed her eyes and sighed.
"where did you find those? when did you find those?" she asked.
"that's what you're gonna ask me first? those are your words?" Nate raised his eyebrow.
Genesis didn't answer back.
"I found them this morning while you were sleeping. I was gonna take out the trash and I saw them there." Nate explained. "I was hoping you would tell me about all this when we're in the bathroom this morning."
Genesis didn't say a word. she was speechless.
"you could atleast be smart about and hide it somewhere better." Nate stood up from the couch, throwing the box on the floor as he walked to the front door, opening it and leaving outside, closing it as he left.
Genesis stared at the box that was on the floor.
she stood up from the couch and ran outside after him.
she saw him laying his back on the house next to the front door smoking a cigarette.
"Nate! you told me you quit!" she grabbed the cancer stick from his mouth.
Nate retrieved his cigarette back and continued to smoke it.
"is what you do when you're gone?!"
"No, I go to work." Nate said. "I work for this house, I work for our food, I work for you."
Genesis sighed. "come back inside, Nate."
"nah, I think I'll stay out here."
"Nate,come on. stop being so immature."
"oh, I'm being immature?" Nate scoffed with a fake smile. "my wife took a pregnancy test, tried to hide it- and may I add, in the worst possible place. and didn't even tell me she was pregnant. that's immature. you're like some kid that breaks multiple crayons and instead of hiding them or throwing it away somewhere smart, they put them in their lunch box... I don't know."
"I'm not pregnant..." Genesis said uneasily.
"my bad, sorry I forgot to mention that you threw the stick away with the box too." Nate said.
"Nate please... I can-"
"tell me the baby's mine."
"what?" Genesis raised an eyebrow.
"tell me that the baby is mine." Nate repeated.
Genesis shook her head, trying to find the words. "of course the baby's yours."
"then why hide it?" Nate asked.
"I don't - I don't know. I - I was just scared that maybe... maybe you would get upset or something... you know, because of the adoption or-"
"are you kidding?! this is great news!"
"I know, I know. I don't know why I did this, I'm sorry."
Nate put out his cancer stick, then brought Genesis in for a hug.
"I'm so in love with you."
Genesis sighed, blinking a few times as a tear rolled down her cheek.
"same here, nate."
