Final Decision

She closes the door behind her and goes inside as the man plays with the twins as naturally as she has always played with them.

There is something like immense joy on his face as he's almost glowing while playing with them, her heart almost softens but she hardens it right back. There is no way for her to know whether he has a good intention for being there... She sits upright as soon as the thought crosses her head that maybe he's after the twins? Maybe he wants to take them away from her? She srings to her feet and goes to meet him.

She turns to Maya and Miles, "Why don't you two go inside and finish the cake? Mommy's not hungry now so we'll join you in a little bit."

They whoop and go inside to go have the cake that she had previously kept for tomorrow.

He stands up to his full height and has a smug smile on his face, something about her just what's to whack it right off but she just clenches her fist.

"Whatever your intentions are from coming to my house, you can't..."

"Come back with me to New York." He states and steps forward.

She takes one backwards, keeping the space between them consistent. "What? Come back to New York with you? I have a happy life here, why would I do that?"

Luc laughs. "Happy life... In this humble apartment?"

Even Mika can hear the sarcasm in his words. "I lived here for five years, I don't see why it will change now."

"Oh, it will. Those children are mine as much as they are yours and we both know that. You had absolutely no right to keep their existence a secret from me..."

She swallows, knowing deep down that it's the truth, he's still their father after all and had a right to know about their existence but she had been scared...

"No, we like it here. I don't want to go back to New York. It will be a hassle to start a new life over there. Think of the children, they will be leaving all their friends and..."

Luc cocks his head to the side. "This is not about them, right? It's you who's been selfish. You don't want to run into your past. Lily and Price along with Alicia. Aren't you curious what's become of them? Your parents? What the whole city thought of you back then? Oh, I can tell that one is not good. You want to make the world think of you as a loose harlot for your life?"

Mika tries to not listen to him but his voice slowly crawls all over her defences and go straight to her heart and head, everything becoming infuriated. With clenched teeth... "No. I am not curious. Let them think what they want..."

"Even if they will call your children bastards?"

At that, Mika snaps. "I won't tolerate anyone saying crap about my children."

Luc smirks. "See? You've been hiding your anger under all of this facade about living in an humble apartment. You hate this place. Come with me and I'll give you a new life, I'll make sure you have your pound of flesh on everyone who took something from you."

Mika eyes him. "What's in it for you?"

"My children. They are all I want."

"So I'm just a bonus."

"You're just a bonus." He states passively. "Will you give it a thought or should I just leave with them? Because I assure you, not even a court is going to side with you in this case..." He leans in and whispers to her. "I love throwing my money around, some Judges won't mind being the recipient of some of them."

Mika can't help but smile. "Now you're blackmailing and threatening me?"

He shrugs. "Just think about it." He gives her his card and walks away, his waist like just perfect enough to wrap all her hand around. She shakes her head violently to rid of the thoughts and watch as he gets into his car in the entourage of others.

He gives her a two finger salute before driving off.

As soon as he leaves, her children show up, icing all around their faces. She chuckles lightly, her eyes filling with love for them. She bends down to their level and begins to wipe it off their faces. She licks them off her own hands, nothing more than a child herself.

Miles looks around "Where is Dad?"

"Don't worry, Dad is coming back tomorrow." She kisses their forehead one after the other. "You really brought your Daddy home..." She mutters. She straightens up and smiles. "Daddy wants to take us home, should we go?"

She has decided that she will follow whatever her children want, leaving her own selfish feelings out of it.

"Yes..."

"Yes!"

Both of them respond, their smiles infectious.

"Can I pack my bag Mum?" Maya asks, dropping icing to the ground while jumping.

"Of course. Come on, let's start packing."

In about five hours later, she has successfully tucked them both to bed which was harder than normal because of the anticipation for their Dad and Mom coming together and going back home together.

She holds the card in her hand and twirls it around. She looks up his name on her safari.

Lucas Santinello.

A thirty two year old self made man. At under 30, he had been a billionaire but now... He's the wealthiest bachelor in the whole country.

All the other wealthy men are married.

He's the biggest catch and so many celebrities has named him to be their crushes...

She chuckles sardonically.

If only they know.

"Don't you want to know how Lily, Price and Alicia are doing...?" His voice comes crawling back and while still on Safari, as she has stopped herself from doing for the past five years, she looks up Lily Anderson on the Internet.

Her cutesy face comes flashing back at her but this time, she's not alone in the photo. She's dressed in a long white wedding gown with Price on her side, smiling brightly at the camera.

Mika sits up and looks at the date.

They had married a month after she had left home...

The day after she had been released from the prison.

All her pushed down hatred and anger for being wronged come skimming the surface...

"Those cheating mother..." Mika curses.
