Im not kidding. Im your husbands lover! Weve been seeing each other for years. Yes! Dont stare and dont get upset
Yulia was preparing dinner; her husband Oleksiy was supposed to return in an hour. Their tenyearold daughter Karina was at dance class.
She would be home in half an hour, toss her bag down and sit at the table waiting for the meal. While she waited she would chat about friends, her achievements, her teacher Yulia smiled. She always liked listening to her daughter.
A knock came at the door. It was early for Oleksiy, and he had his keys. So Karina must have forgotten hers again. Yulia opened the door, but instead of her girl stood a young woman.
Im not joking. Im your husbands mistress. Weve been together all these years. Yes! Dont give me that look and dont get emotional.
All these years means how long?
Weve been seeing each other for three years. I was fine with it. Its much calmer to live alone and have a husband who comes home.
No expenses, financial or physical. Right! I didnt wash, cook, or clean after him. Im not changing anything now.
I wouldnt have come if I werent already involved. Its a coincidence, but its too late to do anything.
Yulia remembered she had struggled to become a mother. Everything went well for her, but Oleksiy faced problems, so they turned to artificial insemination.
The first attempt failed, but the second succeeded. Yulia even expected twins, which isnt uncommon with that method. Karina was born. And now this news.
How can you say you wont change anything? Your husband comes home, and you think the father will just keep coming?
No, not exactly. Ill have a husband and a child who both come.
Interesting. How do you picture that? The father raises the child and visits you so the child can be with its mother?
Exactly. I didnt want a child; it happened by chance.
But Oleksiy said he couldnt have children?
Then he can! I need to see the conditions in which my child will grow up. All makes sense.
Your daughter is yours, and Oleksiy will take part in her upbringing even if he isnt the biological father. Now it will be his child, and the responsibility will fall on you.
Miss, Im not even inviting you, I dont know your name, your man no longer lives here, you can take his things. The rest doesnt concern me!
Yulia tried to shut the door, but she saw her daughter returning from class.
Mom, what was that? What child? Why isnt Dad my father?
Did you hear everything? Then its time I explained everything.
Mom, Im almost eleven now. Ill understand.
Yulia told her everything.
Youre my daughter, but Dad loves you; on paper hes your father. We were waiting for you together.
Now hes waiting for another child, but you wont be its mother. I wont be a sister. Right?
Well yes youre right. And also youre grown up; I dont want to live with Dad any longer.
Ill help you, dont worry, Mom. Im an adult now; let him go. I love you both, but that woman who showed up let him be with her.
Oleksiy arrived right on schedule.
Whats happened to us? Why does nobody greet or hug me?
Usually Karina would meet her father and hug him, but now there was silence. She stayed in her room.
Yulia, wheres our daughter? Stuck at dance or sick?
Your lover came. Shes waiting for a child. Yours! Can you explain why shes here?
Yulia, understand, this is my child; I cant abandon it.
And you know what shes offering?
I know. She didnt want her, but we already have Karina, now therell be another. Itll be my child! It will live with me.
Are you sure its yours? Do you remember your diagnosis?
Exceptions exist!
Good. Youre going to the mother with your exception. Leave right now, take the things later!
No, Yulia! Thats not allowed! No ones waiting for me there. Im not needed needed, but in a different way.
No ones waiting for you here either. Youre not needed. Go!
What about Karina? Im her father, even if not biological, Ill raise your daughter. Whats wrong if my real child lives with us? Everything fits.
My future childs mother already told me about fairness. First find out if shes yours, then speak. Goodbye.
Yulia divorced Oleksiy. He had to leave because the apartment belonged to Yulias parents. They had built a house but never transferred the flat to their daughter, which turned out irrelevant during the split.
Oleksiy had nowhere to live. The man who sometimes came home was better for his lover, and she didnt want to change her lifestyle. She also refused to care for the baby.
She wanted to be a mother in name only, to have fun, not to face sleepless nights, diapers, illnesses She hadnt planned for that.
After the babys birth she sued for child support but lost. How the negligent mother now raises the child is unknown. Oleksiys diagnosis remained unchanged; his infertility wasnt confirmed.
Legally he has one daughter, but she refuses contact. He pays alimony, tries to rebuild the family, yet Yulia no longer wants to see him.
So it turns out its not easy to sit on a single point while occupying two chairs
