Chapter 17

Miranda

The eighth month of my pregnancy went by so slow. I decided to rearrange all of the furniture in the house, and since I couldn’t move it all myself, I would text my brother to stop what he was doing to come help me. To say he was a bit pissed at me would have been an understatement, especially since I kept changing my mind.

For the past week, I had reorganized a bunch of things, put all of Bella’s old clothes in boxes and cleaned all the sheets in the house, including the already clean ones in the linen closet. I just couldn’t stop my madness. Ty came home each day to fancy gourmet meals and I insisted on doing the dishes afterwards.

I don’t remember nesting with Bella, in fact as far as my pregnancies went, this one was completely different. Aside from the Tucker’s mom drama, I was happy and safe. I wasn’t fighting with a lousy abusive boyfriend, or begging him to grow up and be a father. The father of my twins was the perfect man. He was everything a girl could ask for and more.

A sudden knock at the door startled me, because everyone on the farm just walked in. I walked out of the bedroom to see a familiar face staring at me through the glass in the door. My stomach dropped and I immediately got my hopes up that something good was about to happen.

I opened my door to Heather and expected her to just hand me an envelope with the papers in it and walk away. That’s not what happened at all.

“Heather? What are you doin’ here?” I looked behind her, hoping my brother was somewhere close in case things got ugly.

She walked into the house and started looking around. “I see Ty expanded the place to accommodate your family.”

I held my belly and motioned for her to sit down. “He worked hard to get it done.”

“He likes doing that.”

“Doing what?” I sat across from her, never letting my guard down. I felt like the she-devil was sitting across from me.

“Working hard to get what he wants. Doing what has to be done.” She crossed her legs and sat her purse down next to her.

I shook off her rude comment, knowing damn well I couldn’t get into a battle with her. My babies were far more important than some skank hoe. “Why are you here, Heather?” I looked around the vicinity of the room for my phone and it wasn’t anywhere to be found.

Heather startled me and stood up. I caught myself leaning back, as she passed and looked around my house. I stood up and followed behind her. “I can’t believe he did all of this for you.” She got to the kids room and just stared at it. “Took on a child that wasn’t even his. I mean, what did you do to make him want to change so much?”

“I didn’t do anything. He helped deliver our daughter and loved her since that day.
