Ashley's POV
My life has been great ever since I was adopted from the orphanage when I was only five years old by a great family. I graduated from high school as valedictorian, I got a full scholarship to Harvard University where I took two majors, business management and computer sciences.
I graduated with my two majors and from their I helped my father run his company. I became the coo yesterday day on my 32nd birthday and had a good talking with by my mom about starting a family.
Don't get me wrong I do want to date get a husband and have children, but I'm unable. When I was in university I got sick and didn't tell my parents only to find out that no medication could treat me and had surgery to remove the uterine fibroids so on my third year of university I had surgery to remove my womb as the last course of action.
I figured why bother dating and getting married if I can't get pregnant I would be just dragging someone into my problems. I know people might say I'm selfish for not telling my parents after they adopted me and did everything for me, but I can't hurt them like that. The reason why my mom can't have kids is not because she is infertile like me.
It is because she was born with a heart disease and if she were to carry full term she might die even before giving birth that is how serious her heart problem is and to add on to her problems with mine is not something I can do. I love them happy.
So after my 32nd birthday I just told them I will adopt next year but that is because I am looking for a surrogate who will be carrying my twins because I would love for my kids to always have someone not like me and I did manage to get my gay best friend to be my babies donar.
My mom was a little hurt by that but after a few minutes she was happy to know she will have a grandchild. I would have loved to get pregnant and the nine yard but I can't.
A month ago we got a surrogate from a company we did the insemination and the company that helped us find the girl is the best in the business. I just came back from the hospital with Justin and Lauren who are my gay best friend and the surrogate carrying our twins.
She will be having them next year in January which is the perfect new years present for my parents. I have made a video for them and have explained everything in it from me not being able to have kids, the doctor suggesting I save my eggs and Justin offering to be the father of the babies, the surrogate and about the babies.
I plan to give it to them on Christmas so they will know I have tried to my best to give them grand babies. Justin has been helping me set everything up for the beginning he is as happy as I am. My life has been great a loving family, a loyal best friend, great job and babies on the way the only sad part is me not being able to carry them.
But everything else is amazing I wouldn't change for the world.
8 months later
Today is the day before Christmas which is Christmas eve I'm just finishing everything up. I have set up the perfect present for my parents. The gift is already under the tree and they will see it tomorrow morning.
I have talked to Justin and he agreed to bring Lauren and we will introduce her to my parents and his they are coming over for Christmas lunch and I asked the maids to prepare a extra plate for a friend.
Rrrrr rrrrrrr rrr
I checked who was calling me on the eve before Christmas and of course it is my assistant Leo. He knows not to call me on special family occasions unless it is important because he should also be at home with his family.
"Marry Christmas eve Leo. What is troubling you on this supposed great evening since it is 9:48 pm?"I said with a smile on video call.
" Marry Christmas eve boss lady. But I have some bad news the food, clothes, and toys that are meant to be delivered to the orphanage this year will not be able to arrive the delivery truck had a car accident on the highway and the driver is in the hospital in critical condition because the drunk driver lost control of his car no one died but there are five injured. I have called the hospital to get the people involved the best care and the drivers family was informed but the cargo was damaged. But I did get a shop to help replace everything but they need to talk to you in person to sign the contract." Leo said sounding tired.
"Thank you for your hard work Leo and you can have a bonus for your hard work. Just send me the address and I'll be there as soon as possible. And after we are done with this go home to your family and rest." I said dropping the call and taking my jacket and car keys not telling my parents because they will worry.
I received the address and immediately drove there met Mr Martin had a decent talk with him signed a contract made sure to send Leo his bonus and now as I drive home I'm happy again even though the roads are a little slippery because it was rain most of the morning and now it snowing which means white Christmas.
As I drive back to my parents mansion I lose control of my my car and the last thing I can think of is how I didn't tell my parents I loved them as I was walking out they don't even know I left and I will never meet my sons. And very grateful I wasn't the one pregnant because it means they are safe.
I felt my soul leave my body. I knew no one can save me as no one knows that I'm out here. I felt myself drift away and I can hope for is everyone I love to be safe and happy.
