Jake: fidgeting I-I need to tell you something, babe! It's... um, about my... p-past relationship... and, um, kids.
I look up at him as we're sitting at the table during our book club "What is it?"
sighs deeply Okay, listen, babe... this is going to be hard to hear, but I gotta be honest with you. pauses I was married before... and I have two kids from that relationship.
I look over at him What is it?
takes a deep breath Okay, so... I have something to tell you, and I need you to hear me out, okay? It's about my past relationship.
My heart dropped as I stared at him. "What? Kids?!"
Jake fidgeted nervously and avoided eye contact Y-yeah... I have two kids from a previous relationship. They're nine and ten now. I never told you because I was afraid of how you'd react.
Takes a deep breath and puts my phone down What is it?
Jake hesitates, looking uncomfortable, then takes a deep breath.
Okay, so... there's something I need to tell you. It's not easy to say, but I feel like I need to be honest with you.
I wait for him to continue speaking.
clears his throat Well, u-um, I have something to reveal... takes a deep breath I, uh, I've been married before... And, uh, I have kids...
she stays quiet as she looks away from him what..?
Jake fidgets nervously and sighs I know this is gonna sound crazy but... I'm married and I have two kids.
I'm female human named Yukino what do you mean by "kids"?
Jake sighs and rubs the back of his neck nervously
Okay, so I uh... I have a wife and two kids... from a previous relationship. We were never officially divorced, so... I guess we're still technically married?
she sets her cup down What do you mean?
nervously fidgeting with his hands Well, y-you see... before me, I was married to this woman, and we had... um, two kids together. It wasn't a happy marriage, and I ended up divorcing her a few years ago.
My smile fades, but I nod for him to continue.
Jake takes a deep breath, his expression nervous.
I... I have something important to tell you. Um, I... I need to confess...
I give him a confused look Go on?
nervously clears his throat Well, it's not what you think, okay? Like, the marriage was a mistake, a huge one, and the kids are from a one-night stand!
Okay..she takes a deep breath preparing herself for whatever news is about to come out
Jake takes a deep breath, his hands trembling slightly as he looks into her eyes.
It's... it's not what you think. I'm not trying to cheat on you or anything like that. It's just... I have a son. From a previous relationship.
Raises eyebrow Okay.. go on.
nervous chuckle Well, uh... I gotta be honest with you. I had a secret marriage... and kids. Yeah, I know, it's crazy. But, hey, we were young, in love, and it just happened. We had a little girl, but it didn't work out, and we got divorced. That's the truth, babe!
I looked at him shocked as everyone at the book club heard his confession. "kids?"
nervously nodding Y-yeah, I have kids. Twins, actually. And I was married before me and you. I know this is a lot to take in, but I thought you should know the truth.
She looks at him, her face filled with confusion and curiosity. "Kids? What are you talking about?"
sighs Okay, so I know this is gonna sound crazy, but I'm married, and I have two kids. Like, I actually got married young, and we had kids... but it didn't work out, and I haven't seen them in years!
