Chapter 41

Daphne’s Point of View

I cannot believe that my sister is coming here today. I am excited, nervous, and truthfully a little scared. I have not seen Scarlet in so long. I wonder how much she has changed. Scarlet is almost thirty years old; does she have kids?

The thought of kids stops me dead in my tracks. Crap me and Caleb have not been using any protection. My hand floats down to my stomach, what ifl get pregnant? Would Caleb be happy or upset? I look over at Caleb as he is putting on his shirt.

“Caleb, we have not been using protection.” I feel dumb even uttering those words.

“Yeah, so?” Caleb just shrugs at my statement as he sits down to put on his socks, and shoes. How can he be so casual about this?

“Ok, um what if I get pregnant?” I can not believe that he is continuing to get dressed. Having a baby is a big deal. Caleb finally looks at me and realizes that lam shook up at the thought of children. This is not a subject we have ever spoken about before.

“Daphne, you are my mate. I assumed that eventually we would have children. Is this not something that you want?” Caleb finally stops moving, he is focused on me waiting for me to answer him. *
