While I Was in Labor, My Husband Went to Care for His Ex’s Kid

My due date was just days away. We were supposed to go to the hospital that night, but my husband suddenly said he was going to Regina’s to babysit because she had to work overtime.

I froze as he put on his coat. “I’m due in a few days and there’s no one here. What am I supposed to do? And how many times have you helped her? Am I your wife, or is she?”

He glanced at my belly. “Staying one more night won’t change anything.” His brow creased with fatigue and his voice turned impatient.
