Chapter 10

The next few months were hectic. I was busy with assignments but any spare time I had, I threw my back into constructing the new house and found myself enjoying my new, jam-packed schedule. Armaan helped me out with the planning and designing part of it but also turned into errand boy when the role required it. He didn't mind being told what to do which amused me to no extent because finally, I was starting to understand what Jasmine found so appealing in this guy. He caught me smirking as that thought entered my head once and frowned suspiciously but didn't comment.

Cole and a few local guys I had hired as help joined us in building from time to time. Jacob and his new friend Ziad, whom we mostly referred to as Zi, played at a safe distance away while we worked. There was another addition to their play dates though. A two year old girl called Aaliyah whom Armaan had adopted about four months back. Where Jacob and Zi were serious, moody types, she seemed to steal the show with her cheerful and talkative nature even if what she said at that age hardly made much sense.

Ben was in his crawling stages now which kept Adele, the nanny, busy along with Skye. We'd hired a nanny after seeing how tough it had become for her.

Madison had broken down in front of me that day I had announced my decision to move out. I couldn't not get up. I couldn't not take her in my arms and comfort her because it hurt to see her like that. She cried all over my shoulder for a good, long while until Ben woke up bawling and hungry.

Skye was too upset and his crying seemed to agitate her even more so I fed him with a bottle and cradled him until he fell asleep again after some cooing, gurgling and drooling. Soon after that, Jacob got hungry and wanted me to play ball with him as well so I told Skye to take a nap and that we would discuss everything later.

Later happened only when Cole finally arrived and I was exhausted from all the caretaking. But we managed to talk that night; Skye most of all. She confessed that she had found the girl-in-my-bed scene triggering after discovering she was pregnant because to her, it had seemed as though I had been cheating all over again. Even if things were over between us, that didn't mean she was over all her former doubts and insecurities and a part of her had naturally grown to be possessive of me since I was living with them and we were all so close.

She apologised, I apologised. We set some rules and drew some lines. Cole was upset I couldn't stay but after plenty of reassurance and a very thorough love-making session, he stopped feeling too anxious about it. Our main priority was Skye's mental health then and also making sure that the kids didn't suffer.
