Chapter 43 - No Judgment
Two weeks later Kane's house
It's Friday night, and I thought I would invite a few friends over. Jay, my cousin and my childhood friend Sam and their partners came through. Shalom and I have been cooped up in the house for a week. We wanted to be alone so we could reconnect, we needed to talk.
I took time off work and she came and slept over every night. I told her stories about my mother. I shared how much I miss having her around. I didn't realize I was mourning for the times she's going to miss out on my life until the moment we talked about it.
I am heartbroken that she will never know my children and they will never know her. She was an incredible woman and I know she would have loved them with all her heart.

"Why did you call her?" I ask Kane and he looks up at me. He sighs and then he gets up from the floor. He sits next to me on the bed. I stay silent waiting for him to say something. "Do you miss her? Do you want her back?" I ask when he doesn't answer me. "No, no, no!" He says his voice low but firm. "I don't miss her or want her back. I called her because I needed to process stuff." He says looking at me like that one sentence cleared up everything. "What does that mean?' I ask wondering what could have happened that he can't tell me. And of course my first and only thought is that the father of my unborn child is cheating on me. "I was having a hard time and she helped deal with it." He says and I shake my head not sure I want to hear this again. "I don't get why you had to talk to her,I'm here, you have your cousin and Jay. Why did have to be your ex?" I ask feeling my heart break. What if she wants to get back with he

"So you're telling me you don't believe in the idea of having a soul mate?" Jay says staring at me. I smile and shake my head.

"You didn't just say that to me. I say laughing a little. I hate when men go on these types of rants. there's no way they think like this."I'm serious, I don't understand why someone in your position would worry about a random girl who's showing interest in our man." He says pointing to Kane. I stare at Jay and he smiles. I know he's pulling my leg here, he's trying to get a reaction out of me. I guess Kane spoke to him about the Olivia situation. He wants to play? I'll play along. "Do you want to know why I worry/?" I say to him but look at Kane. He raises his brows at me in question. I guess he's playing along too. If he's still wondering why Olivia bothers me so much he's going to find out."Please enlighten me," Jay says making me look back at him. Farrow smiles taking a sip of her wine.

"Thank you for doing this with me," I say looking at Noni in the passenger side of my car. I bring the car to a stop in front of a large gate. I open the window and reach out to the gate intercom. I press the button and the gate opens immediately."Are you kidding me there was no way I would miss out on this."She says staring straight ahead. Her mouth drops open when the gate opens wider and an incredible view is revealed. I gasp at the beautiful driveway and house beyond."What in the rich people is going on here?" I say in shock. Why did Kane add this house to the home wish list? This has to be expensive as hell."Girl, this is rich rich!" Noni exclaims as the car moves closer to the house."Why didn't you tell me your baby daddy is rich?" She asks and I don't have the answer.

"You look like you're thinking hard," Olive says when I open my front door. She smiles at me and takes a step into the front door. She walks past me and heads straight to my living room. "You have the look of a man that has a lot of responsibilities." She adds and she sits down. I watch her do this whole process wondering if it's a good idea. The last time Olive was mentioned in my relationship, it almost ended. "I do have a lot on my mind," I say closing the door and head to the living room. I sit in the chair opposite hers and she stares at me. I can tell she has a lot on her mind and she's trying to find the right words. I know why she's here.

I love the fact that we have a routine now.We spend about eight hours apart working and then at the end of the day we come home to each other. We make a tasty meal and we reconnect. "My day was interesting," I say thinking about my conversation with Olive. It was both heartbreaking and freeing. I knew she would find out about Shalom and me at some point. I knew she would call me out on my hypocrisy. She wanted everything I have with Shalom for us and for years I wasn't willing to give it to her. I completely understand why she hates me right now. I hope she gets to a point where she can forgive me. "Oh? How?" She asks sitting down next to me She balances her plate on her belly and I smile. I love how cute she looks when she does that.
