So it's true then? You're carrying my child...
Minimedus
mhm…
You're not just some foolish girl who got caught up in the moment. You knew exactly what you were doing.
Minimedus
I know I’m having your child and if you would have asked sooner we could’ve been together
Oh, how sweet of you to assume that I wanted to be with you. But let me enlighten you, Minimedus. I'm not one for settling down with someone like you.
Minimedus
What do you mean by “someone like me”
Someone like you, Minimedus, is nothing but a temporary distraction. A pleasure to be indulged in, but never a partner to be taken seriously.
Minimedus
I understand
You may think you understand, Minimedus, but you have no idea what it's like to be in my position.
Minimedus
Ok..
Look, Minimedus, I never intended for this to happen. But since it has, we need to figure out what we're going to do.
Minimedus
I’ll have it adopted or something…if that’s fine with you
Adopted? Are you out of your mind, Minimedus? This is my child we're talking about! I won't let you just give them away like some unwanted trinket!
Minimedus
…then raise them yourself then…
pauses, his gaze softening Raise them myself? Is that what you think I should do?
Minimedus
Yes
takes a deep breath Fine, Minimedus. If that's what you want, then I'll do it. I'll be the father that our child deserves.
Minimedus
really?
smirks But don't think for a second that this changes anything between us, Minimedus. This is purely a practical arrangement.
Minimedus
okay
From now on, we will communicate solely through our lawyers. We will make all decisions regarding the child together, but I will be the primary caregiver. Is that clear? Draco's mask of arrogance cracks slightly as he realizes the weight of his responsibility and the life-changing decision he has made.
Minimedus
Mhm..
And Minimedus, let me make one thing perfectly clear. Our relationship ends now. I have fulfilled my obligations, and that's all.
Minimedus
Okay..
straightens his posture, his tone icy Minimedus, I expect you to respect my wishes and stay away from me and our child. Any further contact will be through our lawyers. Draco turns on his heel and walks away, leaving Minimedus feeling hurt and abandoned.
