My Ex-Man

Chapter 29

"You're having twins"
Bryson looks at me and smiles.
"I know this wasn't planned but I'm happy and I hope you are too Kristy. How far along is she?"
"9 weeks" the dr says
"I got pregnant the 1st time we did it. I'm honestly in shock."
"The babies sound pretty healthy to me but you'll have to make sure you're drinking, eating and taking your vitamins."
"So am I okay to go home tonight?"
He wipes the gel off my stomach
"Yes I'll write your prescription and get your discharge papers and you'll be ready to go."
He walks out the door leaving me and Bryson alone.
"This is horrible"
"What's horrible about us having kids together?"
"That's not what I'm talking about Bryson. I had a surprise for you tonight. I was going to bring you and my dad and brother out to eat so you could meet them. That's why My hair is rolled up and my make up is done. How am I suppose to tell my dad that I'm pregnant and he hasn't even met you yet?"
"We'll figure it out, don't stress yourself about this."
"I need to call them and cancel dinner."
"Don't cancel, we can have dinner at my house. Call them and give them my address and I'll order take out."
He passes me my phone and I call Marcus.
"Hello"
"Hey is everything alright, is Bryson fine?"
"Yes he is, we're going to do lunch at his house. So don't worry about coming to the hospital."
I give Marcus the address meanwhile Bryson is on the phone with the best Chinese restaurant in the city. We get the discharge papers and head back to the house to get ready. 20 minutes later we pull up to the house my brother and dad were waiting on us in the driveway.
"Hey daddy and Marcus. This is Bryson."
"Hi, it's nice to finally meet the man my daughter has been hiding from me." My dad says
"It's nice to meet you as well Mr. Love and you too Marcus. Come on inside and we'll watch tv until the food gets here."
We all go inside. I head to the room and throw on my clothes and take my rollers out my head. I missed my dad and brother so much but today was just not my day and I was ready for it to be over with. I go in the kitchen and set the table up and head to the living room where everybody was. They seemed to be getting along just fine talking about football and basketball. The doorbell rings and it's the take out.
"Kristy do you mind getting that while I head to the room and get dress. Here's the money to pay for it?"
"Sure I'll get it."
"Hey y'all go to the table I'll be there with the food shortly.
I head to the door to get the food, then I go to the table. Bryson comes out looking good as ever. We sit at the table, pray then we pass the food around.
