Untangle Me
Page 23
Me: Hey baby, how’s work?
Kayden: Good love, whatcha doin?
I couldn’t tell him. I didn’t want him to get excited or start planning in his mind if the test was negative. Kayden wanted a family and always felt it was a possibility.
Me: Having lunch, are you going to be late today?
Kayden: Nah, I’ll be home around five.
I wanted to tell him, wanted him to comfort me, but I thought it would be unfair to him. This was something so very personal for me… men could have children for their entire life, but at some point a woman loses that ability forever.
I held my breath as I reached over and gripped the pregnancy stick in my hand, scared to see the result. I slowly opened my fingers one at a time, dragging out my torture and any chance of bad news. My eyes grew wide as the blue plus sign filled the test strip window. My heart stopped as the realization of what I was staring at hit me. I’m pregnant, we’re pregnant. Large teardrops streamed down my cheeks plopping on my dress pants. A sob ripped through me and I allowed the sound to fill the interior of my car. I didn’t know until this moment how much I wanted a child, this child.
Kayden walked through the door shortly after five. I cleaned the entire apartment waiting for him to arrive. I couldn’t sit still and wanted to tell him, but wanted it to be in person. “Hey baby.” I said walking towards him as he kicked off his shoes.
“Hi love.” He kissed me on the lips and wrapped his arms around me. “Are you okay love, you’re sweating?”
“I’m fine, I’ve just been cleaning,” I said. “Come sit down for a minute.”
“What’s wrong? Is something wrong with you?” he asked as he sat down and I face him on the couch. I grabbed his hand, squeezing it before I spoke. “You’re scaring me, Sophia.”
“Oh sweetheart, don’t be scared,” I said. “I’m pregnant.” A grin crept across my face as I watched him for a reaction.
His beautiful eyes grew wide and his lips parted, his teeth shining from the smile. “Really?” he asked. I shook my head yes and his eyes glisten from newly formed tears. “Oh my God, I can’t believe it.” He reached out and placed his hand on my belly. “We’re going to have a baby.”
“I still need to make a doctor’s appointment, but I’m late and the pregnancy test I took today said I am.” I placed my hand upon his and leaned forward kissing his lips.
Kayden wrapped me in his arms smothering me with the kiss. His lips broke from mine as he held my face between his hands. “A baby, you’re giving me a baby. You’ve made me the happiest man in the world. I love you, Sophia.”
“I love you too, Kayden, you’ve given me the greatest gift in the world,” I said staring into his eyes. Kayden still had the ability to steal my breath like he did the first time he kissed me. Navy blue had been wiped out and replaced by a rainbow of colors. Kayden had filled my world with the color that I’d lacked and now a piece of us would be entwined forever in the form of a child.
