The school week flies by and before I know it it’s Friday and Walker stalks into my room with an avocado in his hand and places it on my desk.

“What’s this?” I pick it up turning it back and forth thinking of the guacamole I could make with it. I’m always hungry. “You want Mexican after our appointment today?”

He laughs taking it from my hand. “No. You are sixteen weeks today and according to the baby book our little guy is the size of an avocado. Such a big change from the apple last week, and look; it’s green!”

“Do you plan on doing this every week now?” I chuckle at his green comment.

“I do.” He tosses it up in the air; catching it and placing it back down on my desk. “I can’t wait until I have to go buy a watermelon. I adore you, Erin. Have a good day.”

In a flash he is out of my classroom. After the blow up with his father Walker and I didn’t stay much past Sunday. The tension was too high between his dad and him and instead of relaxing like he wanted to, the friction drove us away. Aside from a quick shopping trip with his mother, we spent the days avoiding his dad. I expressed how upset I was that Walker and his father were currently on bad terms. Having lost my own father, I'm constantly reminded that you just don’t know when they will be gone. I was happy that my last words to my dad were “I love you” but I couldn’t imagine if we had been fighting.

He assured me that eventually it would be fine between the two of them but I still couldn’t help feeling like it was something that needed to be fixed immediately. Although, maybe if he would have broken the news to them a little lighter, then the reaction wouldn’t have been so strong.

I also confessed that I eavesdropped on his conversation in the garage with Jack. On the drive back to Illinois I asked him about Tiffany. Jealously tore through me when he confessed she was his high school and college girlfriend. They dated for six years before she found out she was pregnant. He went through half the pregnancy before she confessed it was someone else’s and she had been unfaithful for the previous two years. He was also the victim of a long term relationship that ended in infidelity. After he told me how she had lied to him, it reinforced how much he must trust me. If he could believe me, a woman he didn’t know, that the child was his, then why couldn’t I trust him just as much? I was getting there. I realized what I had and wanted to keep it.

He had said he was in love with me to his father, but guaranteed me that he wouldn’t say the words to me until I was ready. So, in place of love he used “adore.” Every chance
