"Hey guys!" I smile and Taylor collapses into my arms first. "Mom, look what I drew!" She says
happily.
Taylor and Connor are my little boy and girl twins. I had them alone, and I'll raise them alone.
They've never seen my cuts and I intend for them not to. They're my everything, the reason
I'm still standing.
I smooth out my outfit and look at the drawing but my attention is taken off of it for a moment.
"I helped draw!" Connor argues and I kiss his cheek. He rubs my lipgloss off his cheek.
"It's what I want a daddy to look like!" Taylor shoves the drawing in my hand. I look at it. Their
daddy. They always want to know who their daddy is..
It looks like a mini bodybuilder. I chuckle.
"Let's go home, hun," I poke her nose and she grins. I take Connor and Taylor's hand and we cross the street.
"What are we doing for game night?"
"Truth or dare!" They both scream.
"How do you two bunnies know about that game?" I tease.
"Ms. Kella says she played it with her hubby!" Taylor's eyes twinkle. I furrow my eyebrows.
"Let's go, let's go!"
We get to the apartment and I unlock the door. We climb up the stairs and go inside our apartment.
We all collapse on the couch.
"I'll get your snack. Now wash your hands and get ready." I tell them.
"Moooom.." Taylor whines.
"Taylor.." I warn. She speeds off to join her brother. I let some cookies bake and prepare some
orange juice and apples.
I take out my phone and scroll around the contacts and smooth out my outfit
before they rush in.
"Mmmmm.. yum!" Connor says excitdly. I ruffle his hair again. It's so soft! Awkward..
Anyway..
"Truth or dare!" They chant as we go to the kitchen and I lay out plates and give them cookies,
glasses of orange juice and apples.
"Okay. Let's go."
"Connor!" I snap suddenly. He giggles and jumps.
"Truth or dare?"
"Truth!" He giggles.
"Hmpgh. Is it true.. that.. you love your sister!"
"Yes!" He says happily.
"Prove it!"
He kisses Taylor on the cheek.
I gush. How cute are these little guys?
"Okay. Taylor, truth or dare!" Connor says.
