Seeing Lena accepting her father so smoothly without any query or questions, it relieved me. I was hoping that Lucas would also welcome Logan without saying something to hurt his feelings. He was a yearning father.
I secretly admitted it to myself that I separated Logan from his own children. I was wrong and keeping them further away would only create a crack in my relationship with the kids. It was a sin that I never intended to commit but it happened.
“Tessa, are you sure that you’re comfortable with him here at your house?” Eliot, whom I walked out of my house, asked and I realized that he was reading my face all this while.
“He’s my kids‘ father, Eliot. I can’t stop him from meeting them.” I replied quietly because I didn’t want to share the private details of my marriage with my neighbour.
He nodded his head in understatement I guessed.
“As a friend, you can always count on me. If you feel he’s invading your personal life and you want to keep him at bay, then let me know. I will help you to put him in place.” He said in a serious tone.
I chuckled lightly.
“Don’t worry, Eliot. He’s not an abusive husband. I parted my ways with him because we had ideological differences and there were some unresolved issues that I thought would always stay between us so I left and he wasn’t the reason I left my home.” I clarified witho

“Thank you, Eliot. If I’d need your help, I will definitely tell you.” I blinked my eyes in assurance.
I closed the gate and walked back only to find Logan standing at the front steps with a long face.
“Do you need anything?” I asked.
“Why is this neighbour being too clingy around you?” He asked in a sulking tone.
“He’s only a caring person and let me tell you for your kind information that he is your son’s favourite person.” I said.
“I can see that.” I heard him grumbling.
“Logan, he is only a friend because I have set clear boundaries with everyone.” I turned to face him. If he was back to reconcile with our kids, he had the permission but I’d not give him the right to trying controlling my life.
“Don’t give me that look, Tess.” He said under his breath, it was just two of us in the patio.
“I am glad you can still understand my silent language, Logan. We broke up because you label people around me as bad but the reality is opposite. You never seem to care about the toxicity in your orbit. Don’t get me started with the examples.” I said with a subtle hint of sarcasm.
Reality seemed to dawn upon him and he looked away. I could see sorrow on his face which he didn’t try to hide.

“I am sorry. It was the worst mistake of my life and I have paid the biggest price for that.” He said, the words came out quietly.
I remained silent because it was his battle to fight. He must decide whom he wish to keep close or whom to discard.
