Yikes. This actually makes me really uncomfortable. I get that Chloe actually does want a baby, and she is just scared- but tricking her into getting pregnant is pretty awful.
Agreed. Ollie....so not cool, dude. That's kind of taking away her free will and the fact that she specifically said "No, I'm not ready" makes it even worse.
Agreed, it's not cool and he's going to get it in the jugular when the missus finds out. However, you've all read Taking Turnsies, and you all knew this was coming! :-P
And let's be real, spouses play such tricks on each other all the time, though it's usually the wife who is pushing for the baby when the husband isn't quite ready to be a dad. I know it's usually easier to accept when a woman does it, because she's the one who has to carry the baby and takes the risks... but I am intrigued at the reversal in this instance, and how the discovery will play out.
Thankfully, we all know they'll both be over the moon about it when the time comes. But until then... get ready for fireworks! :-P
Great comments, gals. Many thanks, and my apologies if I made you uncomfortable.
Thanks for responding, Dee. I hope it didn't come across like I was slamming your work - I realized too late how negative that sounded. I think we just have different takes on the subject and we may have to just agree to disagree. Doesn't mean I don't still think you're a great writer! This debate is actually quite interesting, and thank you for explaining your side. I do see what you're saying with women tricking men into having a baby, but my issue is - I don't think that's cool either. As sexist against the man as this sounds - I do actually think it's worse for a man to do it because he's not the one carrying the child
( ... )
There will be fireworks, I guarantee it! But not for long; they love each other too much for either of them to stay mad at the other... especially with a baby potentially on the way.
Oh no Ollie! You are not impregnating Chloe without her consent! Hope Ollie comes clean or Chloe realizes her contraceptive expires before the two weeks are up ....
If he comes clean, he risks losing out on being a father for another three years. I don't think he'll want to wait that long, do you? He's weighed the risks, and has decided the temporary wrath of his missus is worth having a child of their own to hold in the next ten months or so. Underhanded tactic, certainly... but oh so very typically Oliver. ;-)
