A Rollercoaster of Emotions: Twins, Ultimatums, and Divorce

Our protagonist, a 28-year-old woman, found herself in a whirlwind of emotions when she became pregnant with twins by another man while in an open relationship with her husband. At first, her husband was supportive, saying he would love the babies as part of her. But then, he changed his mind, demanding that the biological father not be involved in their lives. As our protagonist tried to navigate this complex situation, her husband dropped a bombshell: either she gets an abortion, or they get a divorce. With her fertility issues and the ‘what if it never happens again’ factor weighing heavily on her mind, she’s left feeling conflicted and uncertain about her future.
