A LIAR AT THE ALTAR SEASON 2: CHAPTER 21 – 30
Chapter 8
The thought of Kayla hating me for what I did burn my heart. What if I never saw her again? It’s been two years since I carried her in my arms.
The door opened but my vision was too blurry from the tears to check the person.
Tristan stopped in front of me, he released a heavy breath and leaned down.
“Hey, ” He called softly.
He took my arms and pulled me up.
“It’s okay, we are going to get her back.”
He pulled me into his arms and wrapped his arms around me.
“I’m so sorry.”
I sobbed against his broad chest.
“I’m also sorry, I shouldn’t have snapped. I’m angry at the thought of never seeing her, never knowing how she looks or never carrying her in my arms. I guess I’m still being punished for what I did.”
He whispered.
I hugged him tightly, I cried it all out.
“I will do anything just to carry her in my arms, kiss her head and tell her how much I love her.”
He said stroking my back.
“I took that away from you, I shouldn’t have. Why are you being nice to me? What if you never see her again?” I said pulling away.
He stepped closer and brushed my tears away.
“I’m not that guy anymore, I have gone through a lot with you, Cassie. I’m a father again, you gave me another chance and I won’t ruin that.
I wish I never lied to you, I regret it every single day.”
He kept caressing my cheeks with his thumbs as he spoke.
“I spent the last three years at the hospital and group therapy.
It was a tough journey after you left but I’m glad I”m better now, you were in my head all those times.
I wasn’t having any vacation, Cassie, I was in he.ll,” He looked away from me blinking the tears in his eyes away.
“I really miss you, your defensiveness, the way you glare at me when I annoy you, your nosy nature.
I miss every little thing about you, I know I don’t deserve another chance in your heart or in your life but I wanna be a father again.”
He gave me a soft smile after he spoke.
“Thank you so much for keeping the twins.”
He told me and wrapped his arms around me, he stroked my hair as I listened to his heartbeat.
“I’m so sorry, I was scared. I thought I was making the right decision, ” I broke down again.
“Shhh…..” He whispered.
“It was also my fault.”
He whispered after a while.
“I have her pictures on my phone if you would like to see.”
He was quiet for a few seconds.
“I have hope we’ll get her back, Cassie.”
“I know,” I said quietly.
“Is she blonde?”
“Yes,” he pulled away after I replied.
“Okay, I wanna see.”
I chuckled softly as I grabbed my phone.
“Shit, I’m nervous when it’s only a picture.”
He said sitting on the bed, I sat next to him smiling. I showed him the pictures Mrs. Rodriguez took at the hospital after my labour.
He stared at the picture for a long time with a sad smile mixed with guilt.
“I will make us some coffee,” I stood up and gave him some time alone. I returned after some minutes.
“How was it?” he asked me when I entered the room.
“Pregnant and all alone?” he added before I could ask him what he meant.
“Terrifying,” I sat next to him on the bed after giving him his coffee. I told him about my stay in Cuba.
His ringtone blared in the room when I was almost done with my story.
He answered the call and went to the balcony. He returned later with a big smile.
“We are getting Kayla back, we are freaking getting our daughter back!”
“What? How?” I asked standing up, I dropped my cup of coffee on the nightstand.
“I just spoke to my lawyer, we have a chance because you gave her up for adoption without my consent. We have a shot at this, Cassie.”
“Oh my God, really?”
I jumped, he picked me from the floor and spun me around laughing in pure happiness. I laughed too. He put me down as our laughter died down, his hands remained on my waist and mine remained on his chest.
He pulled me closer and leaned closer to my face. He captured my lips in a slow kss, I kssed him back gripping the shirt he was wearing. It lasted for a few seconds before we broke the kss.
“I’m sorry for what I did to you.”
“I don’t wanna talk about the past, let’s put all that behind us for the sake of the kids.”
He smiled at me and nodded.
“I need to check on Kayden,” I groaned pulling away.
