Get Up 10

Chapter 81 - Wrong Shot

Ambrosine
Saturday morning

I woke up this morning not feeling like myself. I sighed staring over at everything I ever wanted and was still so confused on how I could feel this way. I felt selfish for not being happy but it wasn't with them, it was with myself. I'm alive but not living. I haven't seen the world or lived at all. These thoughts came about when I began to overthink the many things Saint's family may possibly ask me. My life was never extraordinary or nothing like that and I was kind of embarrassed. This morning, the morning I had to prepare to meet his entire family, I woke up feeling beyond insecure. Time couldn't be any more inconvenient. Dragging my feet and silently shutting the door I began to clean up the house and cook my love bugs breakfast. We had a long day ahead of us, especially me.

Saint Josiah

I woke up to the smell of food and Logan and Nova talking their baby talk on my kings sized bed.

" Morning little ones" I spoke

" Ew dada" Nova spoke covering her nose and I couldn't help but laugh.

" Dada gotta brush his teeth?"

"Dada brush teeth!"

" You trynna play me baby? You don't want no kisses?"

She pushed my face away and I got up laughing and sitting them down on the the floor so I could brush my teeth.

" Come brush your teeth Nova you not safe either drool face"

She walked in the bathroom struggling with Logan almost falling.

" Hey baby you can't pick her up yet" I grabbed Logan.

"Why?" She made a confused face

" She little babe"

" Her little?"

" Yea and you little too so you can't be picking up babies"

" No pick up baby?"

" Nope little girls take baths and brush their teeth so let's go. March your little butt to this sink"

I kissed a half asleep Logan.

I ran a bath for them and proceeded to wash them up quickly before placing them into new pajamas.

" You guys sit right here while dada wash up okay?"

I took a 15 minute shower just to find them in bed right where I left them watching morning cartoons.

" Let's go bother mommy and A" I didn't force my kid to call Ambrosine mom. I proceeded to call Natalie on the phone for her morning talks with Nova.

They were chatting for a good few minutes and I decided to engage in a conversation with an occupied Ambrosine who's back was turned.

" Morning baby" I spoke walking behind her and kissing her neck. She brushed me off.

" You alright?"

" Yep"

" You seem upset"

" Really?" She softly spoke before smiling. I noticed she been crying.

" Why the puffy face?"

" I'm just not feeling like myself"

I eyed her stomach and she sucked her teeth. " Listen I'm not pregnant okay? Just let it go I took a pregnancy test two days ago and it's negative. All 4 of them so stop bringing it up. You're aggravating me."

I sighed because Natalie was still very much on the phone and I know she was being nosey.

" I know you aren't pregnant because I haven't tried to trap you yet" I spoke trynna play it off. Nobody but us need to know shit about our relationship.
