'Cause Now I Know It's All That I Wanted, chapter 23
My students came in, giving me hugs and congratulations with my wedding. For the day, I didn't feel like giving them that large essay on how 'Bach changed people's lives', instead, I just showed them some wedding pictures, I know they would rather do that then an essay, so would I. They all laughed at the whole 'Phantom of the Opera' theme I had, but they weren't there, only Eve was.
The day was over, and I could finally go home and relax. Mike came with Stella, I didn't know she was coming? I looked over at Mike and he just shrugged and smiled at Stella.
"Mommy had to go somewhere, she dropped me off at daddy's," Stella said with a toothless grin. I nodded and smiled again, I just wanted to get off of my feet honestly. I sat in the car and Mike drove me home without a word. Was he upset about something?
"Stella, wanna go to your room and read?" Mike asked Stella while giving me a look that only said 'I-need-to-tell-you-something.' I nodded and Stella gave me another smile and headed off upstairs. We both sat down on the couch, me leaning against Mike, and him messing with my hair.
"What happened?" I asked worriedly.
"Anastasia, that's what happened, she takes away my child and expects me to be free whenever she has plans, I love Stella. I love having her around but I'm so used to... not having her around I guess. But as a father, I have responsibilities, I know I do but when you have a pregnant mother of three little tykes, and plus an ex-wife that randomly drops off my daughter, it can be a hassle," he said.
I nodded, I didn't know what to say to that, since I couldn't really relate to it, whenever Mike and I were just dating, we used to come to each other for problems, we'd whine and complain and do whatever was needed to get our minds off of the stress. One moment we would be sitting around, talking, then the next, we'd have a big great bonfire, the kidling was pictures of our past lives, when times were rough, I'd always go to Mike, I love my father of course, but sometimes it wasn't good enough.
"Just know that I love you Mike, these babies will love you and Stella loves you. You're a very loved person," I smiled. He just chuckled and then kissed me softly.
"Eeew! Cooties!" I heard Stella yell from the steps. I laughed and then kissed Mike agin.
