"You sure you gonna be alright, baby?" I asked again for the 8th time. 9th time, probably. I lost count. I sat on the couch as I finished my shoelace.

Zay just continued organizing the stuff on the shelves. "Yeah," she answered without meeting my gaze.

I felt bad having to leave her today to fly out to Portland and I really wanted her to come but it really was about time she started taking more rests at home.

"I could tell Shay to come over so you have someone with you," I suggested, doing my other shoe as I glanced at her. "You need someone to look after you, baby."

She kept a nonchalant look on her face. It looked like she was just plain exhausted and I felt bad. "Yeah, yeah."

"Want me to call mom?" I offered again, this time reaching for my bag. "I'm sure she'd love to be with you for the meantime."

"No, that's okay."

"You sure?" I egged on, watching her closely.

"Yeah. I'll just stay over at my mom's. Asher's gonna be there, too," she simply answered, unknown to her furrowed brows while moving on to the other side of the shelf.

"Alright," I agreed, zipping my bag and getting up from the seat. "I'm gonna miss you tons."

When she didn't respond, I just had to sigh out loud. I walked towards her as I carried my backpack and held her arm.

I leaned my chin on her shoulders. "Are we okay? Is there something wrong, babe? You seem like you're having a bad mood."

I was certain it was just one of her mood swings but I hoped I could turn it around before I leave.

"Nah, I'm good." She forced a smile for a few seconds.

Tucking her hair behind her ears while I caressed my twins on her tummy, I gave her a loving kiss on the cheek. "I love you."

And that's my whole life out there. She was everything and all.

We both heard the loud honk from outside the house and she quickly moved away from my grasp. "You should go."

Man, I was for sure going to miss seeing this pretty face for the next few days.

"Don't Daddy at least get to have a kiss?" I teased.

She snorted in dry humor. "No."

"Come on," I whined before I just stole a kiss on her lips. "You're gonna miss me."

Beep. Beep.

Jesus.

"Right, I for real need to go now." I slung my bag over at my shoulder and headed towards the door. She followed me behind. "Take care, okay? Don't forget to take your daily supplements and eat enough nutrients."

When I opened the door and glanced at her again, she was looking at me with an empty gaze. She looked like she was thinking so deep.

"Good bye, Wardell," she mumbled, almost a whisper.

I smiled. "Not good bye, silly. I'll see you in a week."
