"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.

"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.

It was Sunday and Willow's only day off. She was glad because she didn't have to leave the house to go anywhere. After the incident at Evelyn and Chase's wedding yesterday, she was trying to live with the embarrassment. She had switched off her phone immediately she got home and she didn't bother to switch it on up till now.Instead she laid on the couch in the living room, staring at the ceiling while listening to the soft snores of her kids that were asleep on the kids' mat she had laid on the floor. She looked at the clock to see that it was still eleven thirty and then she sighed, "It's going to be a long day."∞"So, you're telling me that I had kids I knew nothing about?" Nathan glared at his best friend. Chase nodded at him, keeping the distance between them in case he might need to make a run for it. "Basically, yeah," he said."But why didn't you tell me?" Nathan was angry now. Noah held his arm to prevent him from lashing out. "Be gentle, son," Camilla glared at her son. Nat

"Willow, you're spacing out too much," she looked up to see Jayden looking at her with a concerned look. Willow gave him an apologetic smile; she didn't even know when he walked in. "I'm sorry," she said and he shrugged before taking a seat in front of her. "What's the problem?""Nathan found out," Willow sighed and rubbed her temples. "Well, that's great. That is if he's not filing for custody," Jayden said jokingly and Willow shook her head. "I don't want the press to find out about them. I don't want to be a part of any drama going on with the elites. I love my quiet life," she mumbled and Jayden laughed."It doesn't matter. Willow. Did you guys talk about how you'll raise them together?" he asked her. She shook her head, "He asked me to meet him at his office today." Her eyes fell on her watch and they widened. "Shit, I should be on my way now," she quickly stood up."Cover for me, will you?" she asked him and he nodded with a grin. "Say hi to our baby daddy for me," he teased and

Willow didn't know how broken she was until she sat in her office and let the words from earlier sink in her head. She couldn't stop herself from crying and she knew why. She knew why that statement hurt her more than she let it. She knew why her heart broke after hearing that statement.She should have known that he would have moved on. What was she even thinking? That he would come back to her? That if she came back to him he would receive her with open arms? Was she that delusional?"You're so stupid, Willow," she sniffled and grabbed a tissue from her tissue box to wipe her cheeks. She hated how she was feeling and she knew there was nothing she could do about it. "I thought you said you moved on," she mumbled to herself and sighed. Her phone rang and she raised it to see that it was her grandma was calling. "Good afternoon, grandma," she answered the call. "I heard everything. How does he look like? Is he taller and broader?" her grandma asked making her frown. "Are you drunk p

It has been a month since Willow and her kids had moved to L.A. and everything was now going smoothly. She and Nathan had come up with the system of how they would give them equal attention.

She couldn't even explain how nervous and scared she saw; the last time she had seen them was before they broke up five years ago.She drove through the gates and parked by the garage. "God, please don't let me mess up," she mumbled as she got out of the car and put her keys in her bag. She hoped they didn't already hate her for leaving their son. Who was she kidding? They have the right to hate her for this unwanted drama she caused.Shaking her head, she made her way to the front d

"HAPPY BIRTHDAY!" Willow exclaimed as she walked into her children's room with a grin. "Mommy!" Daniel and Wave ran from their bed to hug her. "Happy birthday, my loves. You're finally five," she said as she knelt down to kiss their forehead. "Thank you, mommy," Wave grinned and kissed her cheeks. Willow said a little prayer for them and kissed their cheeks."Are you ready to meet your other grandma and grandpa today?" she asked them and they nodded.

"Thank you, doc," the old man said to her with happiness and Willow grinned. "You're always welcome, Mr. Ronald," she said and turned to his granddaughter. "Don't worry, sweetheart. You'll be back on your feet in not time," she said and the little girl nodded weakly. The door opened and a nurse walked in."Yes, Doctor?" the lady said."Please, take them to the empty ward. I'll be there to set up the IV," Willow said and the nurse nodded. After attending to everything that needed attention, Willow went back to her office and let out a sigh.

"I'm sorry I'm a nice person," he said and she chuckled."Thank you," she said as she opened the paper bag to see two donuts and a chicken sandwich

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.

"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.

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. All these things didn't bother Willow at all.She'd spend every single day taking care of him. Whenever she was done with other patients, she'd go back to attending to him.

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.

"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.
