Ezekiel don't give up easily. I rejected his proposal then he left. I thought he'd stop but I was wrong. He became more persistent. He became more diligent. Even though I barely noticed him as he hugged the twins that night. .the sleeping twins were disturbed because of him, and miraculously they did not cry.

Whatever I do in denial, he remains steadfast. I feel that way, because of the twins. Of course, what father doesn't want to be with his children?

I tugged at my own hair as I remembered how many days Ezekiel had been coming home. I also see him a few times. I was also satisfied...
