I’m going to be sick.
Holding my balled-up hand against my stomach, I read the text that just
popped up on Bowie’s computer again and try to convince myself that I’m
misunderstanding what I’m looking at.
It doesn’t work. No matter how many times I reread the message, it still
says the same thing.
What time do you think you’ll be here? Tucker is working late, so we
don’t need to worry about him.
The simple question seems innocent enough, but the photo attached to
the message of a beautiful woman with dark hair who’s wearing a red lace
nightie proves I haven’t made the wrong assumption.
“Mommy!” Kingston shouts, making me jump, and I slam the laptop
closed and watch my beautiful boy with his dark hair and brown eyes—
both traits from his father—hop-skip from the living room and into the
kitchen. “Can we go outside now?”
“Yeah.” I slid off the stool I pulled out so I could look up a recipe for
dinner tonight, not having a clue that doing so would change everything.
“Let Mommy get on her shoes.”
“Okay,” he sings, following behind me to the front door.
“How about we walk down to the park?” I suggest, putting on his coat
first. It takes me a few tries to get it zipped, because my hands are shaking
so badly.
“Yes.” His tiny arms shoot into the air, and I can’t help the smile that
curves my lips.
“All right, let’s go.” I open the door after I’ve got my shoes on, and he
bounces out ahead of me, then waits for me to lock up before he reaches for
my hand.
Holding onto him tightly, I move on autopilot down the sidewalk, past
house after house, all of them similar to the one Bowie moved us into just
weeks after we found out we were pregnant with Kingston. Our boy was a
surprise gift from our honeymoon in Jamaica and a complete shock to me,
because I had been on birth control at the time and was not planning on
being a mom.
Or not at that moment in my life anyway.
At that time, I was working at a hair salon as a stylist with a goal of
opening my own shop within the next couple of years, but getting pregnant
changed that. For the first five months, I was so sick that I could hardly get
out of bed, and for the last four, I was put on bed rest, because my doctors
were concerned I would miscarry.
Bowie was great about everything and had no problem stepping up and
taking care of us when I could no longer work. And after we had Kingston,
we just decided I would stay home until he started preschool. And with
Bowie’s job as a police officer, he was able to take an extra shift here or
there, so we never struggled.
