“Shit,” Sophia mumbled as she caught sight of the line to the bathroom.

“Mom,” Aiden whispered, “I don't want to be here any longer.”

“Okay baby,” she responded by picking him off the ground and walking towards the mall's exit. She wondered how Addison had been coping with Noah. Even though she was comfortable with him, he was still a stranger.

“Can you hold up a little longer baby? Let's pick up ice-cream for Addy.”

Aiden nodded, his face had lightened up a little. They took the elevator to the lower floor. Every inch was covered with people.

The mall was hosting a gaming competition. Sophia sighed, completely overwhelmed by the crowd. She turned on her heel. While trying to locate the exit, she caught a familiar face. “Chantelle?” she almost screamed.

Chantelle had tossed Addison so high up in the air. Addison looked petrified. Sophia's mind immediately went back to the day, four years ago.

She didn't bother to know what was happening. How could Noah let her near Addison?

    “Mummy, you came,” Addison ran up to Sophia hugging her legs. Sophia flicked off the tear hanging on her eye, “Of course baby. You know I wouldn't miss it for the world.”“Mummy, why are you crying?” Aiden asked as Noah carried him into the mix. Sophia choked on a laugh, “Because I love you so much.” She felt like a weight had been lifted from her shoulders. Addison joined Sophia in crying. Her tears flowed even more than her mom's which got Sophia confused. Sophia bent down to Addison height, trying to pacify her and maybe, if she was lucky, find out why she was crying. "Why are you crying baby?" Sophia and Tammy asked almost simultaneously with a puzzled look on their faces."Mummy, because...because..." Addison stuttered. Sophia softly hushed her so she could breathe properly. “Why are you crying love?” Sophia asked again. Addison continued, "Because my classmates keep calling me and Aiden orphans, they bullied us all day especially Jack mummy, he started it and now they won'

    "Who the fuck are--" Kira stopped before she could complete her statement. Noah stood confused as to why she was wearing lingerie.“What, What are you doing here Noah?" Kira stuttered nervously and suddenly became defensive at the door and looked behind her one too many times like she had something or someone to hide. Noah was observant at the same time he felt like it wasn't his business and just wanted his stuff."Kira , I have no time for whatever this was. “I'm just here for my wallet, you hear?"Kira didn't budge from the door. Noah was losing his patience. “Kira, move from the god damn door or I'll move you. I need my wallet, now and fast!"“Noah, you came here unannounced. I don't know where your wallet is. I'll look for them later and get back to you, you don't need to yell at me. Besides, I'm quite occupied.”Kira said while still defending at the door. Noah ran out of patience and was highly suspicious of Kira's sudden attitude.“Kira, move!“ Noah yelled one last time as a

    “Daddy, Daddy. What is it?” Aiden tugged on Noah's shirt repeatedly. “Yes baby,” he said, snapping out of the trance. “What are you looking at Daddy? It's time to go.”Noah nodded absently, placing Aiden on his shoulder. He was happy that Aiden was finally opening up to him. Fatherhood was a new experience that was shaping his person gradually. “Let's go meet your mummy, okay?”“Okay,” they said unison making their way to the car. Noah drove to Sophia's house where he met a conversation ensuing. “Oh shoot,” Sophia said as she glanced at the wall clock, “the kids,” she said in a panicky tone. “Don't worry, I'll get them for you,” Tammy assured her, picking up Sophia's keys from the tray. “When did you learn how to drive?” Sophia questioned Tammy because she knew how scared her secretary was to get behind the wheel. When Tammy got her license, she became her whole family's personal chauffeur. One day, she got into an accident. Her mother was at the back seat nagging her, while h

    Sophia strode into a little cafe very close to her workplace. She spotted Chantelle sitting at the far end looking nervous. “Hi,” she said flatly sending Chantelle an air kiss. Chantelle sighed of relief. She was obviously surprised that Sophia made it. Chantelle stretched her hand across the table taking Sophia's and rubbing it over with her thumb. “I've missed you so much Sophia. Ever since you went to Florida I've been trying to reach you. I called you on the day you were supposed to travel but your phone was switched off.”She cleared her throat when she saw the indifferent look on Sophia's face, “After that I tried calling over and over. Your number was unavailable. When I checked in with the landlord, he told me that you were kicked out of the apartment. I was so heartbroken. I think there was a problem with the payment or something. I'm so sorry you endured all of that alone.”Chantelle's practiced air of innocence was messing with Sophia's head. She stifled her laughter befo

    A smile flashed across her face as she remembered all the events from the previous day. The way Noah saved her from another disastrous event with his sister, it was noble. All the little things he was doing tugged harder and harder on Sophia's heart strings. He was slowly winning her heart, and no matter how guarded she was, he would soon penetrate. Work had been going so smoothly for her, and with the support she was getting from Tammy, Ava, Jeffery, and now Noah, her life was easier. Her phones have been ringing non-stop, clients from all over the city. She had been thinking of expanding and opening another office. Sophia sighed with relief after finishing all her tasks for the day. She knew it was going to be an extremely busy week with the new staff she and Tammy would be interviewing. A chime from her phone got her rushing to see if it was Noah. Sophia felt like a teenager who had found love. To her utter disappointment, it wasn't a message from Noah, but one from Tanya. S

    Sophia offered him a small smile. “I never said I wanted it down. It was a good picture.” Noah stared blankly, confusion written all over his expression. A chuckle from Sophia got him laughing hard. She noticed Noah clutching onto the fuchsia pink envelope. With a tilt of her head, she gently nudged him, her voice laced with intrigue, "What's in the envelope, Noah?"Noah hesitated for a moment, his eyes flickered with a mix of emotions— perhaps a hint of nervousness. He shifted uncomfortably before finally meeting Sophia's gaze, his voice soft yet guarded, "It's nothing, really. Just... a birthday invitation."Sophia raises an eyebrow, sensing there was to the story that Noah was letting on. "Whose birthday?" she probed gently, her curiosity piqued.His hesitation made her curiousity heighten. What could be so important that the CEO of Milton group would be so hesitant to say?“You never stroked me as the type to attend a baby shower.”Noah hesitated once more, fumbling for words. A

    “Noah?”“Were you expecting someone else?” He asked observing as she struggled to catch her breath. He sees how her nerves are acting up and wonders why.“Shall we?” he asked, stretching out his hand and taking hers. Noah walked to the table where his friends sat, uttering no words. The elegance of the formal dining hall could not be explained with words. It was ethereal. The event company took their time to convert one of the Milton living rooms to a ball room filled with chairs and tables. The room was bathed in soft candlelight, casting a warm glow over the table where Sophia sat surrounded by Noah's friends. Sophia sat quietly watch as the speech began. Everyone family in the room chose a representative to say something nice about Heather Milton. "I hope I didn't miss anything," Randall said as he sat next to Sophia. “No, not really,” her voice came through with a smile. Randal Walton was the only one who knew how to make good conversation. The only one who could break the awk

    “Sophia, wait, please,” Noah shouted as they passed through a swarm of guests taking pictures and mingling outside. He felt horrible. After finding out the twins were his, he never announced it. That was because he thought Sophia wanted it that way. Tanya was not going to get away with what she did. “What? What the fuck do you want?” She increased her pace, gradually cleaning off the tears streaming down her cheeks. Her heart had completely sunk into her feet. She was so upset, so much so that she made a fool of herself. She dug her nails into her palm. ‘You're so stupid! What were you trying to prove?’She didn't know what hurt more, her lungs constricting, or her heart beating rapidly against her chest, threatening to jump out. He watched as she ran towards her car in heels. “Sophia, you're going to fall!”“Leave me alone!” she retorted. Just then, someone reversed their car very quickly almost sending Sophia to the floor face down. “You see what I was saying,” Noah scolded as h

Laughter echoed, conversations flowed, hugs and well-wishes filled the air. Maybe that was what enticed the guests. They never knew what to expect. Tammy decided to give a welcome speech.

    “What do you mean the dress is going to be late?” she asked, “No, you listen to me. You're not listening to me. I can have your whole store closed before the end of the day.”Sophia placed her fingers on the bridge of her nose as Harriet kept screaming into the phone.She was fed up. Sophia took the phone from Harriet's hand. "I need to confirm that my dress will be delivered on time.

    The sun shone brightly as the Milton family arrived at the beach. The sound of waves crashing against the shore filled the air, and the smell of saltwater and coconut sunscreen wafted through the breeze.Sophia laughed, chasing after her twins and Jack as they ran around the beach while she tried to apply sunscreen on them."Addison, Aiden, Jack!
