Maya's POV 

It's Christmas Eve and I am 5 months 2 weeks pregnant and I am due in April sometime.   Lucas flew back home to Texas with his mom and sisters to spend it with his family.  Lucas asked me to come but I wanted to spend Christmas with the Matthews, like every year so I'm staying with them for a little while until Lucas comes back.  My mom and Shawn are coming here for the holidays so I'm super excited to see them too!  I put this on and head out the door.

I go to Topanga's and sit down and start check my phone. "Maya?" a voice says so I turn to look.

Maya: Dad?

Kermit: Maya.  I thought that was you.

Maya: What are you doing here?

Kermit: Amy and I are moving to Florida and we are driving through here.

Maya: Amy?

Kermit: My wife.

Maya: Oh congrats.

Kermit: Thanks.

(He looks at me sitting there and notices my bump.  He looks at me but doesn't say anything.) 

Maya: So just you and her?

Kermit: Oh and our kids. 

Maya: Kids?

Kermit: Yeah I have two boys  Alex, Andrew, and a little girl Kate.

Maya: You have three?

Kermit: Yeah but there with Amy right now.

Maya: How old are they?

Kermit: Maya...

Maya: I want to know.

Kermit:  Alex and Andrew are 12 and Kate is 7.

Maya: 12?

Kermit: Yeah.

Maya: You left when I was 6 which would've made them 2...Did you have an affair with mom?

Kermit: Maya...

Maya: Unreal.

(I grab my bag and gather my things.)

Kermit: I didn't know until the day I left.  Amy called me and said she had two 2 year olds and that she just lost her job.  She didn't have money so I left, to help her.

Maya: Did she know about me?

Kermit: Not at the time.  I told her a couple years later.

Maya: So you left mom and me without any money to help someone else you didn't know who was in the same situation?

Kermit: Yes and that's my bad.--I knew if your mom found out I got Amy pregnant then she would leave me and you would think your mom took you away from me.  But if I left, you would think poorly of me, not her.
