“No, baby, no! Daddy is not dying,” she bent down and then cupped her cheeks gently.

Afterward, she turned to look at Nathan and then smiled at him. “You did well.”

“He will be fine, right?”

She nodded her head and then stood up.

“We will stay with him,” Nathan said and moved over to his bed when they saw her walking to the door.

She nodded her head, stepped out of the room, and then closed the door behind her.

As she descended the stairs, she glanced at her family who sat away from each other in silence, and then dropped her hands on her waist.

“How is he?” Karina stood up and then asked.

“He is still unconscious,” she answered.

Karina stopped in front of her and then held her hands. “I am sorry, I was not aware that he was there,” she said.

“I know, mother. It is not your fault,” she covered her hand on her mother’s before she finally moved away.

Looking down at her father and then Ariana who looked more solemn than ever, she exhaled and then smacked her tongue.

    He felt stuffy. Very stuffy, in fact. Apart from the fact that he felt that he was covered with thick clothing from head to toe, his neck was tightened too as if he was being choked. Was he dead? Was he buried already? The sudden feeling of death scaring him, Zeke shot his eyes open under the covers and then exhaled. Feeling the tiny bodies gummed against his, he turned his head gently but as it was dark under the covers, he pushed the covers off their body gently and then turned to look at the children who slept soundly on his both sides, their hands wrapped around his neck. If this was the reason he was feeling stuffy and choked, then he did not mind. An unconscious smile spread across his lips as Natalie snuggled closer to him and then moaned. If he had to choose between perishing for the rest of his life or waking up to this feeling and these children by his side every day, he would of course choose the latter. Finally looking around the room while still lying still in ord

    Without being told, Nathan and Natalie got off the bed, leaving just Elena and Zeke in the room. She entered fully after she had closed behind her, stopped beside the bed, and then wrapped her arms around her chest. “Elena…” Zeke drawled, his voice low and raspy. “Are you insane?” She asked him instead, her brows drawn together. “What are you…” She moved closer to him and then slapped his arm which made him draw his brows together in surprise. “Why?” “Why?!” She repeated his question and then slapped his arm again. “Are you insane?” She asked him again. “No, I am most sane,” he sighed. She moved back, shook her head, and then hissed, “I doubt that strongly.” “Why would you? I bet I look most normal right now,” a smile was on his face and this pissed Elena off more. How could he smile in this situation? “You knelt outside there for three fucking days, Zeke! What were you thinking!” “I wanted to meet you.” “You definitely could have met me in other ways, Zeke. You could h

    As Elena and Zeke arrived at the dining room, it was just Karina who arranged the table with other maids and then stood for a while before she finally acknowledged his presence. “Take a seat,” she said, not taking a glance at him. While Elena settled on her seat, Zeke stood still, his hands clasped in front of him. “Mother,” he breathed out. Karina dropped the plate in her hand and then raised her head. “What?” Zeke pressed his lips together and then bowed his head. “I… Thank you so much… for letting me in.” He was aware that she had brought him in. However, he was not certain if everyone was in support or not as neither Ariana nor their father showed their face at all. “Sit down… and eat what you are given,” she stated softly yet coldly. He nodded his head and then settled beside Elena. As they both waited side by side in silence, they heard the voices of Ariana and the twins and then he turned to look in the direction they were entering too. “Daddy is having breakfast wi

    Leaving only Zeke and the kids in the dining room, Ariana joined her sister in clearing the dishes and then Karina moved to the living room with her husband. While Elena and Ariana were in the kitchen, Ariana whispered to her, causing her to draw her brows together. “What did you say?” “I said they look so peaceful together. The twins… and Zeke.” Although this was a hard thing for her to say, she still would not disregard the fact that the twins loved their father by their side and she had never seen them act that way with her or their mother before. Not to come off wrong, but the twins loved Elena more than anyone in the world would ever love her, actually, but the way they bonded with Zeke was so cute that she wondered what would have gone wrong if they were not allowed to bond with him this way. “That is coming from you, really?” Elena jested and then Ariana rolled her eyes. “I would not lie, okay?” “Are you being a saint now? Lying is a piece of cake to you, is it not?” “

    “No, Elena, you can’t…” “We will talk to them and seek their opinion of course, but I am certain they will want you to. You can come over anytime… and then take them out or to your home anytime and any day.” “I want you too!” He snapped and shook his head. Covering the space between them, he picked up her hand and then shook his head. “How about you? I want you too. Can’t we… can’t we live together again and…” “No!” She snapped her hand away and took a step back. “I can’t.” “Elena.” “Zeke, I cannot!” She shouted and a drop of tears fell from her eyes. “You have broken me beyond repair!” His heart tore at her sharp statement and he shook his head, his lips trembling. “I will be a fool to go back to you! What will… what will people think of me?” “What?” He drew his brows together. “I will be that woman who has no self-respect and who returned despite what you did to me. Even you…! You will never respect me.” “No, no, no!” Zeke shook his head and rushed over to h

    “So, is Daddy going to live with us now?” Natalie’s eyes shone in hope as their mother entered and then asked her. “Or would we need to move to his house? His house is very big, mama. Bigger than here. We can move there and start living together. Aunt Ariana can join if she wants. Including grandma and grandpa,” Nathan said. Elena exchanged glances with Ariana who stood across her, her arms folded across her chest, and then shook her head. Elena settled on the chair and the twins rushed to her in excitement, as if they were confident of her response to their questions. “Now, you both need to calm down and listen to me,” she said as she caressed the back of Nathan’s head. “Yes, go on, mama. Is it about our luggage? Natalie and I can handle our luggage. You can deal with yours.” “Or daddy can help us with packing,” Natalie suggested and Nathan giggled in agreement. “It would be so fun. You have a lot of dress. It will take a long time to pack up your things.” “Or we cou

    MAYBE… Zeke entered the room fully after Ariana had left and then bent down slowly beside the three of them. After Elena had said a piece of her mind to him and had left him there, he had stayed there all through to think and rethink what else he could do and say to make the woman forgive him. After he was done thinking, he decided to look for her in her room before he heard the cries coming from the children’s room also. “What are you all doing?” He asked. Natalie laid on the floor, crying, her feet in the air. Nathan wrapped his arms around his crying mother while he cried too and Elena sat on the floor, crying without a break. Not to lie, this scene right now was literally so funny to him because he could only wonder what had happened before they all burst into tears, Elena included. “Why are you crying?” He asked again. When none of them answered him, and not even knowing who he should start consoling and where he should start from, he rested his chin on his palms a

    When Ryan and Chloe entered and saw the atmosphere of the room as it was, they turned to look at each other and almost retreated from the room. When they had arrived at the living room downstairs and didn’t meet anyone, they rushed to ascend the stairs with the fear that Zeke was yet to regain consciousness but with the noise coming from the other end of the hall, they rushed over there, only to see everyone in the room. “That is not happening, Natalie, and I have…” “Mommy!” The twins cut her short. “You and Daddy will live together with us and we will live like a happy family, that is our opinion!” “Your opinion…” she swallowed. If she told them that it did not matter, they would probably never forgive her. “If you do not agree, Natalie and I will run away from home,” Nathan blurted. Natalie moved over to him, held his hand in support, and then whispered in his ear gently. “We will?” “Play along,” he whispered back. “We will run away and you will never find us agai

This is so crazy!” Nathan yelled.“Language, boy,” Elena smacked her tongue.“Daddy, mommy, this house is so…! Huge! It is freaking huge!” Natalie cried out.She rushed to the couple and then hugged them tightly together.The excitement on their faces was everything.Zeke wouldn’t stop grinning from ear to ear as he watched his children look around the living room.“Before we take a full tour, do you both wanna see your room?” He asked and then jumped in in excitement.“Yes!”“Follow me,” he took Elena’s hand and then walked to the stairs gently while they both trailed after them, holding hands too.Their room was on the third floor, the same floor as theirs and when they got there, Zeke curled his fist into a ball and then smiled.“I will open t

As I have something else to say to them… from the depth of my heart.”“So…” she sniffed and then looked around at the pairs of eyes that were bored on her.Her palms were sweaty and her breath was getting heavier.Would it have been better if her aunt had read the letter instead of her?“Erm…” she stammered and looked around again.When her eyes landed on her brother, Nathan who gave her a thumbs up, she smiled gently and then nodded her head.“Today is a dream come true, everyone.

    “Oh, my!”Chloe gasped as she stared at Elena and shook her head through teary eyes.“Don’t be dramatic,” Elena rolled her eyes.“Only that I am not!”Chloe breathed in as she took in every detail of the dress that she had made.This might actually be the best wedding dress that she had ever made.Elena, the bride stood radiantly, her grand white wedding dress shimmering around her like a celestial aura. The dress hugs her curves in all the right places, spotlighting her slender waist and toned physique.The fitted, mermaid silhouette showcases her feminine sculpture, while the sweetheart neckline frames her heart-shaped face and highlights her dazzling smile. Her long, flowing white sleeves cascade down her arms like a river of snow, with delicate, sparkling beads and detailed lace trim that catch the light.Elena makes a very beautiful bride, and she was glad she had the honor to make her beautiful on this day, her day.Elena and her brother were tying the knot today and she had bee

    “You really should not be doing this, Chloe, trust me,” Elena sighed as she stood in front of the woman who looked around for what to get, to begin with the measurements.“No, no. I am doing this. I will do this. I must make your wedding dress, what are you saying?” She frowned and then grabbed the measuring tape.Chloe had remained adamant and no matter how much she had tried to stop her from worrying about making her wedding dress, she didn't listen.It’s been two weeks already since she had gotten engaged to Zeke, and then in a month, they would be getting married.If it were up to Zeke and his mother alone, the marriage would be taking place the following week after she got engaged, but she insisted on going slow.In fact, to her, getting married a month and two weeks after she got engaged to him was slow too but they were going to pull it through anyway.Of course, she wanted to be married again.In fact, she could not wait to be married to the man who had brought so much joy to

    Waking up the next morning, Zeke had the widest grin on his face.The kids were sleeping heavily in their middle with their arms and legs crossed around he and Elena’s bodies.They snored so gently and he found that cute.Now that he was looking at them, the kids had the same sleeping style as Elena.Their legs spread wide, dropping on each other, their arms wide, and while one was dropped on their heads, the other was spread widely beside them.Their mouths were parted very gently.He chuckled, leaned closer to the drawer beside the bed, and then picked up his phone.He took a picture of them together while he carefully ensured that he didn’t wake any of them.After that, he took a personal one of Elena and zoomed in closer in order to capture her face.When Elena suddenly stirred in her sleep, he returned his phone and then dropped his head like he was sleeping.But that was all, the woman was still enjoying herself as she didn’t open her eyes.He chuckled, got out of the bed gently

    She finally raised her head to see the people around them.Her mother, her father, and her sister.Zeke's family was not excluded. Including the couples who had been out of the country for their honeymoon, Chloe and Ryan.Unable to hold back her tears, she burst into tears and sniffed back hurriedly.“W… what are you… doing?” her voice broke as she asked no one in particular.The twins said nothing and made way for Zeke who covered the space between them and then picked up her hands in his.He kissed the back of her hand and then went on a kneel gently.“Zeke,” Elena mumbled.“So, I thought hard and thoroughly about how to do this properly. To give you the proposal that you deserve, but, this is all that I could settle with. You deserve way more than this and I would do anything in the world to prove to you how amazing and precious you are. We… We have had our ups and downs. I have fuck— messed up many times…” “And you do not deserve the things that I have done to you. You have no id

    It has been nearly two weeks since Elena and Zeke had become so open with their relationship. Over a couple of times, the paparazzi had caught them during dates and had released numerous articles about them.Although people were happy for them, there were still some people who wondered why they had divorced in the first place and if it was right that they returned together.But, she knew what she was getting back to. Elena had told Ariana that.“Not everyone will be happy with the choice that I have made and a lot might hate me for that, in fact. But, everything that I am doing is for me and my babies alone. Everything that I do is for my happiness and I am ready to deal with anything that comes with it,” She had said to Ariana that day after dinner in her room.The woman had shown concern on how the netizens were trolling her but it still would not change the fact that a larger netizen was rooting for her and Zeke.“Do you think he wants to propose?” Elena asked Ariana who helped he

    Zeke turned to look at the woman who sat beside him in the car, humming as gently she could, happiness written all over her.His mind went to the box that was in his car’s dashboard and how she had rejected it this morning, telling him, “I will not accept this… at least, not like this.”And then, it occurred to him that he needed to propose grandly to her.That was his original plan, but, all of a sudden, he could not wait and just wanted to tell her everything.“Are you sure you don’t want to go home first?” Zeke asked her, and then dropped his hand on her thigh.“I have totally forgotten that there was a meeting this morning. I could just dismiss it but I have done that too much this year.”“It does not matter.”“It does, so, step on it. The meeting will start soon.”“Yes, ma’am!” He exclaimed, moved his hand away, and then stepped on the pedal.•••“Should I pick you up when you’re done with work?” He asked her as he pulled in front of the company.“No, no, I’ll just call my chauff

    “Babe…”He kissed her lips gently and bore his eyes on her.She yawned and stirred in her sleep before she squinted her eyes open.“Why?”“Are you hungry? I want to order food for us,” he said, while he kissed her neck.“God, did you wake me up for that?” She frowned, stretched lazily, stretched her arms and wrapped them around his neck, and then locked her legs around his waist.“Babe…”“What is the time?” She groaned.“It’s past nine.”She widened her eyes, sat upright, and then shook her head, “We should get going!”“Shall we?” He tilted his head, wrapped his arm around her stomach, and then pulled her back to the bed.“What are you doing? Everyone will be waiting for me!” She laughed as he tickled her.“I have called Ariana that you’re not coming home tonight. So, no one will wait for you,” he kissed her.“Oh, Zeke.”“What do you want to eat?” He asked again and then kissed her ear.“What do I want to eat…” she drawled gently in an accent.===THE NEXT MORNING.Waking up next to h
