Daddy's Love novel Chapter 59

Fun fact about Jay- He is as scared of shots as much as the littles, if not more and tomorrow we have to go get our yearly shots. Last year, we did not speak for two days when I had to make him take his shots. It's always on the same date every year and Jay starts acting all cranky from at least ten days before the date.

This time, he doesn't remember it yet. I don't know whether to be happy about it or sad.

It's two vampire shots that go in one arm each and it fucking sucks. My arms are sore for at least two days and Jay is a beast for at least a week after. With the girls, I am even more apprehensive. With Carol being around last year, he was sulking alone for two days before he decided to acknowledge my presence solely because Carol and I were going out for a day at the Amusement Park and Ice-creams after.

I deliberate on whether I should tell him tonight or tomorrow morning. If I tell him tonight, both of us are not getting any sleep for sure. If I tell him tomorrow, I have no clue how will he react.

To add onto the problem, he is already super agitated. I think we went too far with the teasing the past week. I will go to talk to Carol before we sleep tonight and ask her to stop.

"Carol and Ana, we need to talk." I go to the girls' room while they were playing before bed, after making sure Jay is in the kitchen, making hot chocolate for the girls.

I sit and they look up.

"Carol? Remember when daddy had to take shots last year?" I tell Carol and she flinches, while Ana looks nonplussed.

"Well, daddies have to take two shots tomorrow and Jay won't be happy about it. So, no teasing him anymore, alright? And try and be good girls, please?" I tell them.

"How has he been okay with it the past week? He went nuts last year." Carol asks.

"Well, he doesn't know yet that he has to, that we have to take our shots tomorrow." I tell her.

"When are you planning on telling him?" Carol asks and we look at the door to see a stone-faced Jay standing there with two bottles of milk.

Fuck.

This is not how I wanted him to know.

Both the girls look scared.

Jay forces a smile and comes inside the room.

"Time for bed babies..."

He tucks both the girls in, and kisses them good night. I watch, standing by the wall.

And then he turns around and leaves the room without even a glance at me.

I smile at them and kiss them good night and go after Jay.
