Henry. Jasmine's question threw me off guard, true I knew she was inquisitive and can be a bit annoying at times but she was still my daughter. I answered her questions the best way I could, and while doing that I hoped she would stop asking any more questions but I was proved wrong. Jasmine can never be satisfied with just one question, she asked more and then asked if I loved her and her mother. I will always love her with my life and I’m ready to give up everything I have for her even my wealth. Jasmine has this amazing ability to make everything feel right even when you are at your lowest and I thank Gwen for giving me such a sweet girl, she really brought her up well and I regret missing those amazing moments in her life. Gwen, I loved Gwen in my own way. I do not love her the way a man would love a woman, it was more of an agape love instead of a romantic one. I am ready to also be there for her when she needs help but romance wasn’t one of them. On top of that, I was glad s
Henry.Drama was one thing I knew Emily was good at. She is the queen of that and deserves an award for being the best acting actress of all time. I got myself prepared to answer every one of her questions even though it’s self-explanatory. “What is she doing here Henry?” She asked, taking her eyes from Gwen and Jas to me and I didn’t fail to see the glare she passed at Gwen. “She came to pick up Jas,” I told her but clearly Emily wasn’t satisfied with the answer. I know what was going on in her head right now, what she was thinking. She’s coming up with baseless accusations against me once again. “Did she have to go upstairs? Couldn’t she wait for her daughter downstairs?” She asked this time sending a glare to Gwen, she didn’t care if I saw her or not. I looked at her and wondered what had come over her, she wasn’t like this before so why was she behaving like this; like someone was about to take her life from her? “Not now Emily, she came to pick up Jasmine and she’s done. Sh
Gwen. Bastard. Imbecile. Asshole. That was what Henry was. All of those things and even more. He was trying to make what he did wrong right even after knowing I was there. The bastard had never cared, not as I thought. He knew those sick acts would hurt me but decided to go with it anyway, yet he had the nerve to apologize. Imbecile. “Are you alright Mommy?” My eyes went to the rearview mirror as I looked at her. That’s when I found myself crying, I was crying and yet I had noises about it. “I’m fine, baby,” I told her as I secretly wiped my tears but as I said nothing can be hidden from Jas. “You are crying. That doesn’t look fine,” she answered. My little girl was all grown up now. “I’m fine baby, trust me,” I looked at her through the mirror again but saw her still giving me that skeptical expression. “Something just entered my eyes baby, so I had to cry to bring it out. I’m truly fine.” I explained further even though I was lying. She looks solemn all of a sudden,“Ar
Gwen. Jasmine was super excited to meet her new grandparents and the gifts mother and father got for her did the magic and made her name them as the best grandparents she had ever had. Jasmine was as inquisitive as ever but luckily for me, and herself Nina and Jade were willing and always eager to answer all of her questions. Nine and Jade were currently in Jasmine's room here where she would stay if we decided to visit. I smiled as I watched them interact, it felt like they had known each other for a long time when they just met hours ago. Mother and Father were behind me, I beckoned on Father to come out since I had something to discuss with him. “Is anything wrong? Did that Henry do anything to you while you were there?” He asked while accessing my body. “I’m fine papa, I only want to speak to you about this before going through with it,” I told him while fiddling with my fingers. I do not have an idea how he would react but the least I could do was try. I thought deeply a
Henry. I couldn’t concentrate the whole day, Gwen and Jasmine was on my mind. It bothered me that they would be in the same house as that man. I didn’t mean to sound like a bastard, retard one at that but I just want to make m out displeasure known. She should not be with him no matter what. I know I have Emily by my side but that was before we got divorced, even when we were married but I was just making a point. We had just been divorced and yet she was going after another man just weeks after it. “You look miserable Henry.” I sucked in some breath. “What are you doing out here Emily?” “I came to check up on you, you have been out here for a long time and have no intention of coming inside so I decided to come check what’s wrong.” She explained. “What did she say to you that got you this weak and defeated Henry?” She asked as she stood by my side. “Nothing that concerns you, Emily,” but when I looked at her I knew that she wasn’t going to rest until I spoke up. “Fine, we t
Henry. I waited until everyone took a spoon of their food, and gauged their expressions before taking a little serving. I didn’t chew at first since I was still scared of eating this but I had to, seeing mother and Emily eat the go or with no complaints, I thought it must be nice and okay for them to eat it. And it was really indeed nice, it was better than the previous ones Emily had prepared before. “This tastes amazing, babe,” I compliment her earning a blush from her. I couldn’t help it, the food was nice and this was the first thing she prepared without getting spoilt. “Thank you, Henry,” she answered and I smiled as her cheeks got coated with red paint. “So Mother what brought you here so early?” I asked, serving another spoon of rice. “We will discuss this later in your study Henry, not here.” She replied without looking at me. I wonder what she wanted to talk about in secret. My eyes met with Emily’s who was already looking at me, I shrugged since I had no idea what m
Gwen,It's been a long day, and we've decided to go home. Mom insisted that we stay the night, but I was too excited to show Jasmine her room to have a sleepover here. Ryan called; he was almost there and would be at my place to see Jasmine before going back to his house, so I had to leave.Nina and Jade walked us out and promised to come over the next morning once they were done with school and maybe have a sleepover.Jasmine refused to leave her grandparents but after some promises she relented. “Bye grandma, bye grandpa!” She waved at them as we rode out. Mother and father eagerly waved back and Jasmine did that until we were out of the compound. “Where are we going now, mommy?” She asked as she let out a yawn. “Home. We are going home baby,” “Home? Is daddy going to be there?”“No baby, but Ryan would be there. You still remember Ryan right?” I asked, looking at her hopefully. Maybe she would remember him or maybe not. “Wryan, who’s that?” She asked and with how he pronounc
Gwen. Ryan left before we woke up and I got to know that because he left a note on the kitchen island. “Good morning baby.” I greeted her as I walked into her room. She was squirming and ready to get up from her bed. “Good morning Mommy,” she yawned and stretched her arms. “What do you want for breakfast?”“Pancakes and strawberry jam.” She squealed. “Alright. Come freshen up and we will get our breakfast ready in no time.” I helped her out of bed and got her ready for today's preschool. Jasmine was excited while eating and I wish to always see her this happy.“Time to go,” we left the house so we could get to her school early since my apartment was too far from her school. …..“Are you going to pick me up, mommy?” She asked as I helped her out of the car. “I will and we will also get some ice cream.” Her eyes lit up as I said that. “Bye baby,” I waved at her. “Bye, Mommy!” I stayed there and only left when she entered her school building with her teacher. I have just one

Epilogue. Henry. A little body jumped onto the king-size bed, waving the mattress and waking me up from the deep sleep that I had been engulfed in. The fucking hell. I need no one to tell me who it was. I snapped out of my sleep just as Gwen burrowed further beneath the comforter in her deep sleep. I tried to hold her before Nate jumped on the bed but yet again I was late. Jesus! He always do this every morning and I'm tired ot correcting him everytime. “Nate,” I called. “Papa, wake up, wake up,” Nathaniel sang jubilantly and then crawled towards me while dressed in his SpongeBob pajamas. It's his favorite pajamas. “It’s Saturday which means cake time, mommy. Wake up,” he said again but unknown to him, Gwen was too deep in his sleep to notice anyone. Crazy pregnancy brain. I swear. She wouldn't hear a thing. Also unknown to Nathaniel, he failed to notice the giant lumps of his twin under the comforter wrapped around Gwen’s body. I sighed when I caught the s
Gwen.I couldn’t believe what was happening, one time I was angry at Henry for driving me out of the room and the next I was walking down the hallway then stopped all of a sudden because of a huge pain that hit me.And then something wet ran down my thighs, I couldn’t believe I’d just peed on myself. But after another wave of painful contractions hit me again, I knew this wasn’t about me peeing on myself, my water just broke.And let’s not talk about how Henry suddenly froze after I told him about it, I mean the man wasn’t moving at all. He was just staring at me like I’d just turned into a big alien all of a sudden.“Henry!” I called harshly, squeezing his hand tightly to pull him from wherever his head was at but that didn’t work.I groaned when the contraction hit me again. Calm down Gwen, you have gone through this before.Breathe in and out, breathe in and out.Yes, that’s it, you are doing fine……Argh.“Henry, please say something baby,” I called, hitting his hand.He blinked but
Henry.We have been in Maldives for a while now and as much as I want to stay here with Gwen for a very long time, I couldn’t. We have a life back at home and I could tell Gwen was missing the kids and our families.So after staying for about a month—left to me I would stay here forever, we returned home and went back to our new life, only that I didn’t want Gwen to work.She always looks exhausted after coming back from work. She was having a tough pregnancy and I wanted to do everything for her. So even when she requested going back to work even though she wasn’t fine I had to say yes so I wouldn’t stress her out. Doctors advise.But for safety purposes, I got her secretary Alice to always keep an eye on her. I even made her stay in the same office as Gwen and made sure she called when she wasn’t fine.Gwen was strong, she was always there for me and the kids. She has a kind heart, she is different from every other woman and I never regret getting married to her.She’s my lifeline,
Gwen.One Week Later.It had been a week since Ryan died and everything had gone back together, even though he kinda spoiled my wedding, I was glad Henry and I did exchange our rings and vows before his appearance.It has been a week since we got married and I still can’t believe this fine man sleeping beside me was my husband. Again.I couldn’t get enough of him, he was too unreal to be this handsome. To me, it was a crime for someone to be this cute and handsome at the same time.I couldn’t take my eyes off him as he slept soundly beside me, it was day two of our honeymoon phase—yeah you heard that right, Henry wouldn’t let it go.He said he wanted an alone time with me in a different country and place so three days after our wedding and after Ryan’s death, we left the country for Maldives.Henry had already gotten the reservation and everything ready before coming, so it wasn’t difficult for us to settle down.I could remember how horny Henry was as soon as we entered our room, he
Gwen.“I have a question for you baby,” he started but I still didn’t look at him. He shouldn’t ask me anything when I’m still mad at him. Everything that happened today was a mess, though I have an idea about it that doesn’t mean I was ready for the drama Ryan was bringing with him.I wouldn’t lie that I wasn’t scared when he held me with that knife pointing at my neck, I was scared out of my mind that any movement would get me killed. I was scared but after seeing the reassuring look in Henry’s eyes I knew everything was going to be fine. More reason why I didn’t panic.“Tell me, apart from hearing your mother talk about Ryan, did you hear something else?” He asked and I kept quiet.When I noticed he wouldn’t stop asking until I answered I shook my head.“What if I told you that everything that happened today was planned?” He asked, dropping the bombshell.I froze after hearing that, he didn’t just say that.I couldn’t say anything, in fact, it felt like I couldn’t hear anything fro
Henry.The gunshot sounded in the room accompanied by Gwen’s scream and I watch, I watch with satisfaction how it went straight to the fucker and hit his chest. I rushed forward and held Gwen in my arms, protecting her from the bastard's blood. The loud thud of his body dropping on the ground and the heavy sound of a boot on the sand told me everything went well.I looked behind me and saw Ryan trying to catch his breath with his hand on his chest like he could stop the blood from coming out. I took my eyes off him as my men took him out.“Are you alright baby?” I asked, looking down at my wife who wasn’t moving in my arms.I pulled from the hug and stared at her, her eyes were open but she wasn’t saying anything.“Talk to me baby, are you alright?” I asked worriedly while searching her body for any injuries. I hissed when I saw a scratch on her neck, it must be from the knife.Gwen blinked and then as she had just snapped out of her thought she held my hand, staring at me with her be
Henry. “You want me right? Just me?” She asked and he smiled. No. “Now we are talking, yes I want you. You should know that for a long time now I have always wanted you even though you are already mine,” he said.I groaned as I flexed my jaw muscles. How delusional could one be to think someone who isn’t in love with him is his? He must be mad.“Right, then let them go and just take me,” she said.I blinked and looked at her in disbelief, she didn’t say what I think I just heard right?“Gwen…” I started only to get interrupted by her.“Take me instead and don’t hurt any of them,” I could feel my bliss boiling as I heard her repeat the same words.She shouldn’t agree to his terms, he was only above us because he was with a gun. I fear he would shoot if I decide to attack him and that is what I do not want. Someone might get hurt.Ryan paused, he did nothing, said nothing but only looked at Gwen with suspicious eyes.“You are being way too easy Gwen, tell me what do you have planned?
Henry.I knew he would be here, I knew he must have gotten a whiff of the wedding and where it would be held. I had everything planned to capture the bastard if he gets here but I never thought he would be this early, never thought he would come and spoil my wedding.The bastard was really getting on my nerves.I looked at Gwen who stood frozen beside me, her eyes wide open as they stared at Ryan in shock. I know what she is thinking right now, she couldn’t believe he was here, and not only that he also had a gun.The whole place was completely quiet as Ryan took slow steps inside, he had a huge grin on his face while taking in everyone’s reaction.“Good day people, I bet you are all surprised to see me here?” He asked but no one answered.I glared at him while trying to bring my phone out discreetly. I quickly typed and sent a message on it after making sure he wasn’t looking.I slipped the phone back into my phone pocket after doing that.“It’s very rude of you guys not to invite me
