The Ex Games 3

I grabbed the key from my pocket and opened the safe, pulling out the files that were sitting there. I sat back and stared at the first file Will had given me seven and a half years ago, when I had first met Katie. I listened to Katie’s laughter and smiled as I shredded the documents.
“Daddy, Daddy! Come and play with me and Mommy.” Harry ran into the office with a huge smile on his face and happiness in his eyes.
“Just a minute, son.”
“Okay.” He rolled his eyes at me and I laughed. He looked just like his mother when he did that.
I stood up and looked at the final document in the folder, feeling a sudden release of pent-up emotion. This was the first piece of information I’d ever gotten on Katie, from a couple of days after we had met. It was the information that could have and should have ended everything. I stared at the machine as it gobbled up her birth certificate and walked calmly back into the living room to spend time with the two people I loved the most.
“Who wants to play a board game?” I asked casually, sliding my arm around Katie’s waist as she relaxed into me.
“Me, Daddy! Me!” Harry jumped up and ran to his room to get his games.
I laughed before whispering in Katie’s ear, “Don’t worry, my love. Tonight we can play our own games.”
Katie’s hand slid to the front of my pants and she grinned wickedly at me. “Who says we have to wait for tonight?”
The End
