CHAPTER TWENTY TWO
“Is that a serious case?” Blazed asked when I told them what Hailey told me.
“I guess it meant barren then. Your wife is barren, bro? We’re not going to be godfathers?”
“Stop saying nonsense, sucker,”
“Just asking.”
“She clearly said she was infertile, she said she wouldn’t have children. Is it true, Dane?”
“Yes.” But instead Dane, Maggie answered.
“Yes?” I ask.
“Yes, so you can fuck her anytime, right Dane?”
“Yeah,” Dane, answered and they looked at each other.
“What’s your plan now, sucker?”
“Are they all egg suckers, Zeus, and you’re not?”
“Yeah, Maggie, I’m the only one that sane, want to bet?”
“No need, I’m good with Blaze”
“He’s sane when sleeping,” Blaze hissed. “Why are you here, Maggie? The meeting is over, isn’t it?”
“Why? Dane invited me here.”
“Wow, you call her Dane, are you closed?” Jace asked.
“If you date Maggie already, Blaze, I’m sure she will be quiet” Dane laughed.
“You’re all bullshit! It’s my issue that we’re talking about, and suddenly the topic goes to Blaze and Maggie?” I said angrily.
“It’s Maggie’s fault,” Blaze complained. “What’s the plan?”
“I really do not know.” I messed up my hair because I was confused.
“Not having children, then fuck her every now and then.”
“Mouth, Maggie, you’re not helping.” Blaze’s rebuke.
“Maggie has a point.” Dane and Maggie look at each other as if they are the only ones who understand each other. Seriously, Sister’s code? Then don’t say that she would trade us to that woman.
“Do you agree with her? Since when your brain, turn green, Dane?” It’s Blaze that’s starting to get annoyed.
“Just now, because I’m with her.” I just shake my head, because It seems that I will not get an answer from them.
“Don’t mind them,” Blaze trying to get my attention. “Listen, Phoenix, having kids is one of a couple’s goals. But it doesn’t mean that you weren’t happy if you didn’t have children. Many couples don’t have children. But they’re happy when they’re alone. It’s just an advantage Maybe. Besides you can adopt. ”
“Exactly, think about it, you just had sex all day, every day with no vacancies.”
“Maggie!” Blaze scolded her again.
“Bed her, Blaze so that she will calm down,” Jace said.
“Bed already? At least marry me first.” Maggie said.
“In your dreams.”
“In my dreams, we’re on a honeymoon and we have a lot of sex.”
“Really? Then, I will grant your fucking dream. I will marry you when Hailey gets pregnant,” Blaze said. Maggie and Dane looked at each other and they raised an eyebrow.
“Did you hear that, Dane?” Then she stood up. “You’re a witness to what Blaze said.”
“Where are you going?” Dane asked her.
“I’ll chat with you,” she answers. “Bye, guys.”
“Did she realize that she had no hope?” Jace asks while looking at the door.
“Don’t mind her, so what’s your plan?” Dane asked.
“I wanted to have a family in the future. Having a kid that calls me dad.”
“Then fucking adopts, stupid.” I stared at Jace.
“Listen, sucker, do you love Hailey?” I can’t answer Zeus. Love? I know I loved Jessa. But–NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.
“I don’t know.”
“What you don’t know?”
“Google it, Jace, so you will know the meaning of ‘I don’t know'”
“You know, Phoenix, we already told you this, and we’ll just remind you. You love her, you’re just in denial. But the case is different now, there’s a future involved. Your happiness. Everyone knows how you love kids, but that doesn’t mean you want another child to others, who wants that anyway? That’s why we’re very careful not to get them pregnant. So the choice is yours, stay or go away.” Blaze said.
“Don’t stress out yourself. If you don’t want her, because she can’t afford to give you a child, then set her free, for sure someone is willing to catch her. Now if you want her to be with you, accept the fact that she can give you a child” It’s Jace.
“So, what’s your decision, sucker?” I sighed and shook my head.
“I don’t know.”
“Don’t rush things.” We look at Dane who is resting her foot on the table. “Enjoy, while it’s last.”
“Is that you, Dane?” Zeus asked her. Even I was wondering. Dane is not the kind of person. She is these types that if you can decide now, do it, especially, if the result is the same. Why take longer if the result today and the result tomorrow are the same.
“Yeah, I’m just telling the truth. As we said you love her, and she loves you obviously. She can’t get pregnant, then, enjoyed the feeling of being in love, when it fades, bye. That’s it, and then finds someone who can give you a baby. ”
“It’s not you, Dane, something unusual with you.”
“C’mon Zeus, don’t make it too serious. I am just giving proper advice here. I always said before that there is no difference between today and tomorrow so why not just decide now. Well, I will say the same thing and a little rephrased way. Why rush now if the outcome is the same. Enjoy having a wife first. Because it never comes back when it’s gone. Nothing will change, she can’t get pregnant. ”
“Stop being with that woman, Dane, your brain is already corrupting.” Dane laughed hard after hearing Blaze’s word.
“Dane is right,” I said. “It’s up to me.” Then I stood up. “I’ll go.”
When I was a kid, I said that when I got married I wanted many children. I am alone so I want my child to play a lot. I want triplets, to be happy. But it turns out that I don’t need my own blood if I stay with Hailey.
I reached the mansion without realizing it. I asked Manang Tasing, where Hailey was and she said she was in the kitchen so I went straight there. I caught her there cooking. She’s wearing an apron. Her hair is tied in bunny. She tastes the dish while blowing the spoon.
Whatever she does, she is perfect. Even if she has diarrhea, her face is still perfect even when she is pushing her poop.
“You’re here?” She smiles seductively. I know for her it’s nothing, but for me, I feel like she seducing me. She’s my wife, after all, so I can make love with her anytime.
I know I am stupid. But other than her beautiful, perfect body, and demeanor. She played the role of being a good and devoted wife. She’s taking care of me, she loves me, and she does everything for me.
Her presence wants me to go home early, her innocence makes me want’s to protect her. I wanted her to be with me. Her scent, her voice, her eyes are enough to drive me crazy.
“Phoenix?” I came closer to her and caress her face softly. “Phoenix.”
“I don’t care if you can’t have a child. You’re mine, Hailey.”
“What are you saying?”
“No annulment. No separation.”
“Phoenix, I’m doing that for you. It’s for your own good.”
“I know what’s best for me. You’re what I need and not a child.” she did not speak. “As long as you’re mine wholly, I have nothing to look for.”
“I’ll still insist on what I want, Phoenix, because I don’t want you to regret it when the day comes.”
“I’ll court you.”
“What?” Her eyes widened.
“I don’t know how to court, but I’ll court you. Until you trust me, that, you’re all I need. Until I’m the one you love again and no one else.”
“You’re the only one that I love. That hasn’t changed despite what you did. I just want you to be happy. I can’t give you a child, and I don’t want you to come to the point where you regret it, why stay with me, or you can do something again that will hurt me just because of my lack of having a child. ”
“I won’t regret it, Hailey. If I regretted anything, is to hurt you. And there’s nothing wrong with you because you’re all I need.”
“Phoenix.”
“I won’t force you to believe me. I’ll just show and let you know that I need you and no one else.”
