My eyes fall to my phone.
To the screen that’s been silent.
Asia hasn’t called me yet.
Have to admit, I’m surprised by that. In her own admission, she has a thing about being in control. She likes when life follows her plan. I was supposed to pick her up an hour ago.
Is she cutting me some slack?
Changing?
Because of me?
I open my mouth, suck in a deep breath.
It’s a mutual shift.
Truth is, I’ve changed too.
Thought it was for the better.
But my past is here to collect. What the hell will paying that debt do to my future?
I don’t think I can face Asia.
Not tonight.
Not unless I plan on telling her that I got some other woman pregnant.
We’re barely three days into our marriage.
Barely.
And a revelation like that will destroy us.
Should I tell her?
How do I even start that conversation? ‘Hey, Asia. This girl I was messing with showed up at the office today. Guess what? We’re going to have a kid’.
Damn.
Hell.
I fist my fingers on the desk.
Draw it up to my stomach.
A low vibration hums in the air.
I turn.
Spy my phone.
Despite my despair, my lips curl up.
Asia.
She managed to give me an hour’s slack.
