Mia's P.O.V
Driving back home was very difficult. Tears were making my vision blurry and I was driving at full speed. Thanks to god the road was empty. I did not want to get involve in an accident at this point.
I reached home fifteen minutes later. I got out and quickly knocked on the door and waited for Martha to open. After a few minutes or seconds when she was not opening I banged on the door.
"Coming" I heard her shouting.
I waited for a few seconds. Martha opened the door and was shocked to see me in this state. My eyes were red due to crying and my make up was smeared on my face.
"Mia what happened to you." She asked.
I did not answer her but got in the house and grabbed Zayn who was busy playing with his blocks. I turn to her and said:
"Thank you Martha. I got it from here. You can go back home."
"Are you sure? I mean I can stay with Zayn while you relax in your room." She said.
That's what I like about her. She knows not to push me when I'm like this. She saw me a lot of time whenever I used to think of Jacob.
"No it's ok. You can go home and close the door behind you please. Bye." I said before sitting on the sofa with Zayn in my arms.
"Ok my dear. Call me when you are ready. Bye." She said after putting her coat and left us alone.
I hugged Zayn to my chest very tightly. I never thought that I would ever see Jacob in front of me, face to face. I hope he hasn't seen me. I can't deal with him right now. Zayn is more important. I don’t know if I'll be able to control myself in front of him. I still have feelings for him. These feelings don’t seem to go away. One year, one whole year has passed but still I'm the same. I hugged Zayn and cried silently. Zayn was just sitting on my lap playing with one of his teddy bear.
Just then I heard someone knocking on the door. Thinking it was Martha, maybe she forgot something I put Zayn on the carpet where all his toys were and went to open the door.
In front of me was...
Jacob's P.O.V
I was following Mia. After I saw her at the party I couldn't stop myself. All my feelings for her were resurfacing. Even after one year I couldn't stop loving her. I never thought I would love someone like this. Mia just disappeared after she resigned from the job. It was very painful to accept it but I did because I know she doesn't have feelings for me. She doesn't love me the same way I love her. For her I'm just her boss. On that night I crossed my fingers and waited for her to accept that she has feelings for me but it seems not as she did not say anything when I said to forget about that night. The second best night of my life, even though, I remember very little.

When I saw her running away from the party, I knew that it's now or never. I have to tell her how I feel about her and even if she wants to reject me let it be. Tonight I'll tell her everything.
She stopped in front of a house and got out and knocked at the door. I assumed it was her house. After a few seconds she started banging on the door and the door was opened by a woman. Both of them went in. I waited for a few minutes. I was still thinking about this. Should I tell her? Will I be able to get my heart broken? I was still thinking when the door was reopened and the other woman came out. She went in the other direction. Before I could change my mind I got out of the car and went to the house. I knocked on the door and waited.
After a few minutes the door opened and there was Mia; my love standing in front of me with red eyes. She was crying. She stood still not saying a word. I took a step forward.
"Mia can I come in" I asked.
She opened the door a bit more but did not say anything. My heart was beating so fast. I was scared to get rejected. She closed the door and went to the sofa. I followed her but kept distance. I did not want to scare her away.
"Mia..." I was going to ask her what's wrong when I heard a giggle. Mia turned and looked at a table. I followed her gaze and that's when I saw...a baby who looks like...me.
I turned to Mia to see her reaction but her face was blank, no emotion nothing. I was shocked. I couldn't say anything. I tried to say something but every time I opened my mouth nothing came out.
Mia's P.O.V
Jacob was standing in front of me. I tried my best not to cry in front of him, to keep my mouth shut. I did not want to say anything to him. How did he know where I lived? Did he follow me? Even if he did I must have not seen him as I was busy crying and driving at the same time. It still pains to see him. I feel my heart tightening. I thought I was going to die.
"Mia can I come in" He asked.
I opened the door a bit more but I still did not say anything. My feelings were threatening to come out. I have to keep quiet. I closed the door after Jacob came in. I went near the sofa and stood, waiting for him to talk.

"Mia..." Jacob said then stopped when we heard a giggle...Zayn. I turned and looked near the table and there was Zayn looking at us. I'm sure that Jacob already saw Zayn. I forgot about Zayn for a while. I'm sure Jacob has already come to know that Zayn is his son. It's now or never. I took a deep breath and turned to Jacob. He was still shocked. He turned to me and I couldn't read his expression. I could not know what he was thinking. I took Zayn in my arms and said to Jacob:
"This is Zayn, your son. I got pregnant when he had sex for the second time. We were drunk and I think you forgot to use protection." I stopped talking for a moment and waited for Jacob to say something but he stayed quiet so I continued.
"The time when I was sick, that was, because I had morning sickness. I did not know. After I went to the doctor she confirmed that I was pregnant but I had already resigned from the company. There were a lot of things going on in my life; my grandmother's death, the legal problems and my feelings for you. I love you Jacob but when you said to forget about that night because we don't have feelings for each other I was heartbroken and I did not say anything because I was scared. After one month or something I got some courage to tell you about the pregnancy.
But I tried calling you but did not get through. I asked Gabriel your number and he told me something that broke my heart more. He thought I was looking for your number so that I can congratulate you about your engagement. Then I told him everything and he told me to come to Mauritius with him and Jordan. I gave birth to Zayn here and he was the best Christmas gift. He was born on the 25th of December. He is now one year and a few. As you can see he resembles you... a lot." I told him. I smiled at the end because Zayn was the best thing that ever happened to me.
Jacob did not say anything when I finished. Maybe he is too shocked. It's a lot to take in one day. Then Jacob spoke.
Jacob's P.O.V
After hearing all that I was shocked. Shocked was an understatement. But it's now or never. Mia needs to know the truth.
"Mia I'm sorry for all I've done to you. I hate myself for saying that to you on that night. It was so selfish of me. I'm sorry Mia. I was afraid to get my heart broken. I thought that you did not love me and I said all this. I'm really sorry. I'm not engaged Mia." I waited for her to say something but she just stared at me, shocked. I continued.
"It was all a rumour. A rumour that that bi..." I look at Zayn then continued "that girl said. She wanted to return back but I refused. She started calling me. I started to get annoyed with her that's the reason I changed everything. I also complained about her to the police and she had to spend two years in jail for harassing and she wanted to come back because his lover was broke. That's why Mia. Please forgive me. I love you." I said to her.
No one said anything. There was no expression on her face. It was blank. I started to get scared. Will she reject me?
I was turning to go away but something stopped me.
Mia was hugging me.
Mia's P.O.V
After hearing all that I was shocked, too shocked to say anything. I could feel my emotions. It was not Jacob's fault in all this. The best thing is that he loves me. I looked at Jacob to see him turning. Where was he going? Is he going to leave me? I did one thing that I never thought I'll do. I hugged him.
Jacob stopped and turned to me. I could do anything more as Zayn was still in my arms. He smiled at me and hugged me and Zayn against his chest. He kissed my forehead and said:
"I love you Mia."
"I love you too Jacob." I replied back.
Zayn started crying and we turned to him. It was time for his drink.
"Do you want to hold him?" I asked Jacob.
He looked at me and smiled.
"Yes." He said.
I gave him Zayn and went to boil his milk.
When I came back Jacob was lying on the sofa with Zayn in his lap. They were playing. I was so happy to see them both like this. It was so nice. Now I feel complete.
I have Jacob and Zayn; my two most important persons in my life.

The poster was carefully placed along the walls and fences of my village, level with the height of a four year old. I thought enlisting to become a Shinobi was a heroic deed, something I needed to do to save my family from poverty and to serve my country at the cusp of war. Then I graduated early to be deployed to the front lines.I am sadly and sorely mistaken. Warnings:Slow-burnNO OP-NESSRomance? What romance?

A lot of tragedy. Critiques much appreciated!
