And I hated that even after six years, I could still appreciate him. That I could still think about how hot he looked. All I could think about was how those strong arms used to wrap around me and hug me tight, and how he used to kiss the top of my head, and hold my hand, and run his fingers through my hair, after

“Nothing about you and I is professional. Far from it. So no, I don’t need no fucking office to have a discussion with you. Having a child together is not professional. Having a child together is not about Having a child together is about two people and their decision to make a human being, and have the carry on your bloodline. This is personal, and not professional.”
