Second semester was almost over. The final year exams could testify to that. The seniors were surprisingly very serious and dedicated to studying. The seniors like Miss Evelyn."You're breathing too loud. Do you want me to fail?" Evelyn glared at Willow who gave her an unfazed look. "This law is getting into your head too much. You're already turning into a bipolar animal," she commented and Eve rolled her eyes."You better shut your pretty mouth before stuff my fist in there for you," she said to her and Willow raised her hands in defeat. "Yes, ma'am," she said and turned her attention back to her textbook. "I thank God that after tomorrow, I'll be free from the tortures of education," Evelyn mumbled as she slammed her book shut and placed it on the floor before lying beside Willow and putting her head on her lap."When did this intimacy start?" Willow raised a brow. "Ever since our boyfriends began to ignore us," Eve said and she giggled. "Unlike you, they have better things to be

"I'm so happy!" Evelyn squealed as she hugged Willow. Willow laughed and hugged her too. "We've finally graduated! I feel like crying!" Eve said and she rolled her eyes. "You don't need to be dramatic," Jude, Evelyn's younger brother said. "Just because you're still in high school doesn't mean you should step on my happiness," Eve scowled at him and he rolled his eyes before walking away."He's never nice to me," Eve grumbled and everyone else laughed. Willow turned to look at her younger sister whose cheeks were a little heated. They had just finished the convocation ceremony and everyone was preparing to go home. Willow wanted to spend a week with her dad and sister before going back to Dallas. "I'm proud of you, my love," she turned to see her father approaching her with his arms wide open.

"Grandma, don't worry about the lawn. I told you that I'll do it already!" Willow groaned as she went to her grandmother who was mowing the lawn. "The grass was calling my name," Grandma Marie glared at her and Willow rolled her eyes."You can go in and take your rest now," she said and immediately felt nauseous. Her grandma noticed her change in expression. "Are you okay, sweetie?" she asked. Without a word, Willow ran to the garbage can and emptied her stomach through her mouth."God," she groaned and fell to her knees. Her grandmother quickly ran to her and helped her up. "This is the fourth time you're vomiting today. Are you sure you're okay?" she asked as she helped her to into the house."I'm fine," Willow groaned as she walked into the kitchen and sat at the island. Aliyah was busy in the kitchen and turned to see them. She walked over to her and placed her palm on her forehead."Your temperature is a little high," Aliyah said and gave her a knowing look.

Past six months had been hectic for Willow. Everyone could tell she was depressed but she covered it with a smile that she had mastered over the months. The doctors had told her it would be bad for the babies but Willow couldn't do anything else. When she started getting heavier, grandma asked her to stay back at home instead of helping her at her flower shop.Willow needed a distraction, but nothing could do that job. Sometimes, she wondered how things would have turned out if she had told Nathan about the pregnancy. Or how it would have turned out if they hadn't broken up.It was like salt to her wounds whenever she would see his picture or an article about him on the internet. With a sigh, she placed her hand on her large stomach and rubbed it. She was due any moment from now and she was having twins. She remembered when she nearly had a heart attack when the doctor discovered she would be having twins. Meanwhile, grandma was over the moon and even started hunting for names. Her f

FIVE YEARS LATER...."Are you sure about this, sweetie?" Grandma asked Willow as she watched her move the boxes into the back of her Sedan. Willow rolled her eyes and looked at her grandma. "Seriously, ma. We've talked about this about a billion times," Willow said to her as she approached her. Her grandmother sighed and followed her into the house. "I'm just saying. I won't be able to monitor the kids anymore. You know I'm not getting younger," she said and Willow laughed. "Don't worry, I'll bring them on some weekends. We're not travelling to another country. It's just L.A. it's not the end of the world," she said and her grandmother sighed."You've already become too mature for your own good," she said and Willow smiled. "I'm going to get the kids from Mrs. Kris, we have a long day ahead of us," she said and grandma nodded, watching her leave.Willow walked down the street towards their neighbor's house. She got to the door and knocked. "I'm coming!" the sound of the cherry woman

"Thank you, doctor," the woman said as she stood up. Willow smiled at her and waved her bye. Once the woman left, she let out a sigh of relief and rubbed her temples. She was having a headache and it was getting the best of her. "You look a little pale. Is it the change in environment?" she looked up to see Dr. Jayden walk in. He was her colleague; a tall man with brown hair, honey brown eyes and a charming smile. He was the only friend she managed to make at the hospital while working as a part time doctor."It's nothing, I just didn't get much sleep last night," Willow told him. He chuckled and went to sit on the empty seat in front of her desk. "Were the kids hyperactive?" he asked and she shook her head. "No, they were surprisingly very obedient," she said and he laughed."I get what you mean. The same goes for my daughter, but she's never obedient to her mother," he said and Willow smiled. "She's a typical daddy's girl," she said and he nodded. He was about to say something when

"Mommy, I don't like those resins," Wave whined as she played with her spoon. Willow rolled her eyes, "Don't be a naughty girl and eat your food." Wave sighed and ate her food. Daniel was still writing in his notebook; he had finished his breakfast earlier."I look pretty in my dress, don't I?" Wave asked her mother. "It's called a uniform, sweetie," Willow corrected as she handed her a napkin to wipe her mouth. "What? Isn't it meant to be unicorn?" Wave frowned. Daniel looked at his sister and rolled his eyes. "Unicorn is an animal, Wave," he pointed out. "Oh, okay," she grinned. "Finish your food and let's take you guys to school," Willow said and went to clean up their rooms.∞"Break time!" the homeroom teacher announced and everyone exclaimed happily. Some of the kids ran out of the classroom while the others remained but went to their various friends."Hey, Daniel!" a blonde boy approached the twins. "Mark, hi," Daniel waved.

"I can't believe I'm getting married today. Oh God, I didn't know I'll get married before you," Eve said to Willow who was helping her to adjust her wedding dress. Willow rolled her eyes, "Learn to shut up, it'll be very good for you." Eve scowled and pinched her arm causing her to groan. "Don't disrespect the bride, it's her day," Melanie, Eve's coworker said as she walked in."Well, she needs a brain resetting before she goes down the aisle," Willow said to her as she stood straight. Eve narrowed her eyes at her and went to sit on the bed. "You're lucky it's my wedding day, I would have kicked you with my heels," she said and Willow rolled her eyes.∞Nathan was at the bar taking a sip of his drink when Kiara approached him. "Hey, baby," she gave him a sweetly seductive smile as she sat beside him and placed a hand on his lap. Nathan rolled his eyes and removed it from his lap."We're in public and the press is here.

They were on holiday but she still needed work. "Yes, sweetie?" she replied as she went to her daughter and handed her breakfast. "Why aren't you staying home with us?" Wave asked as she took a sip of her hot coco. Willow gave her daughter a smile, "Mommy doesn't get holidays, that's why she can't stay home."Wave pouted and Willow giggled before ruffling her hair. "Nate! Daniel! Get down here now!" Willow yelled with an eye roll. "Is Aunt Nadia still coming over?" Wave asked her mother. Willow nodded and patted her head before going back into the kitchen to get food for the others."Did you really have to interrupt our game?" Nathan grumbled as he

People's joy knew no bounds when the news of Nathan's recovery spread everywhere. The doctor, which was Jayden, advised that he'd be on bed rest for minimum of a week so he can regain his full strength. Nathan was not at all happy with this and he used every means to show it. The only thing that eased his unhappiness was that the kids were staying home with him because they were on mid-term break.Daniel wouldn't stop apologizing over and over again for causing his father to go through pain. "Daniel, it's alright. Things happen, stop apologizing," Nathan said to his son as he stroked his hair. Daniel snuggled closer to his father with tears falling down his cheeks. "I don't want you to die, daddy. Mommy used to cry everyday but she didn't want us to know," he said and wiped his cheeks. Nathan looked at his son's teary face and sighed before wiping his face with his hands. "Everything will be okay from now on," he said and Daniel nodded before hugging him.

It's been three months since Nathan's accident. It spread through the news and even got to newspapers and magazines. There was even a part that stated him having kids in secret because there was a picture of Wave and Daniel calling him daddy while trying to wake him up.

Willow was busy giving her patient treatment when there was a knock on the door. With a frown Willow asked the person to come in. She turned around to see her kids walk in with their class teacher. On instinct, she stopped what she was doing and quickly went to meet them."Mommy!" they were both crying and Willow noticed that their uniforms were stained with blood. She looked up at the teacher, "What happened?" she turned her attention back to her children and began to search for cuts or bruises. "There was an accident," the teacher said."Daddy," Wave hiccupped on her tears and Willow's eyes widened. "W-what happened to him?" she could barely contain herself. "I rushed to the scene a little late. He was hit by a car I think, but he's not in a good state," the teacher said with a sad tone and Willow knew it was bad. "Where is he?" she asked her.

"Oh God, please help me."∞"Did you ask him to confirm if it's true or not?" Eve asked her. "I didn't want to walk to him at all," Willow mumbled as she looked through her patients' files.
