“What are you guys talking about? You…”

“We heard you, mama,” Nathan interrupted her, proving her doubts.

She sniffed, returned to her knees, and then picked up their hands again.

“Were you eavesdropping?” She sniffed so hard to suppress the tears that were threatening to fall.

“Something like that,” Natalie shrugged her shoulders off.

She pressed her lips together, nodded her head, and then forced a smile. “I am sorry.”

“He is our daddy?”

She stared at them, her blue eyes laced with tears and then swallowed.

It was so hard for her to admit this to them.

Who knows the tantrum they would pull if they were certain?

“We want to hear it from you, Mommy,” Natalie said and then raised her head to look at Ariana who entered the room with them.

“We need to talk, Elena,” not aware of the situation in the room, she said.

Instead, Elena released her grip from their hands, covered her face, and then nodded her head.

“Talk to us, mama,” Nathan mumbled.

She raised her head to look at

    Ariana grabbed her car keys, walked out through the door, and then stopped when her mother called her name. She turned to look at the woman who walked gently out of the door and then smiled gently at her. The woman who raised them was lovely. Now, she’s still as lovely, the white strands of age highlighting the hues in her dark hair. Her deep blue eyes are still as intelligent and all-knowing. But fragility has crept up on her over the years, leaving her thin but beautiful still. “Mother.” “Where are you going?” Karina asked, locked arms with her daughter, and slowly started walking with her. “Office,” she answered shortly and Karina chucked. “What?” “You know I can see through you… and your sister. When you picked up that car key, you looked like you were going to cause chaos. So, the office is not where you are headed, my beloved.” Ariana smiled, stopped walking, and then dropped her eyes on her mother. “Oh, what a woman you are!” “So, tell me.” “Zeke.” They resumed walki

    “So, tell us, mummy, are we going to live with daddy?” “Will he come to stay here with us?” “Are we going to move in with him?” “I especially like his house. I think we should move there.” “Would that be better? We can start over in another house.” “That is better too, as long as the house is as big as that one.” That was the conversation between Nathaniel and Natalie as they sat in the middle of her bed in her room while she applied her skincare products on her face. She spared them no glance while they kept talking and only concentrated on herself. When she returned from work about a couple of hours ago, they were already waiting for her in her room, and forcefully, she had persuaded them to come have dinner before they returned to her room to resume talking. She applied the moisturizer which was the last of her routine, and then stood up. “It is late. You should go to bed.” “You promised you were going to talk about Daddy, mama,” Natalie pouted. She settled on the edge

    “Are you ready to do this?” Ryan asked Zeke who breathed out rather dramatically from the other end. “You have asked more than a thousand times if I am not mistaken.” “Because that woman is meticulous and you know it too. Say nonsense to her and then you’ll have that tape leaked to the world.” “I literally have no wish to patronize her but I have no choice and I know, I will be careful.” “Don’t forget to insert the device I gave you to her laptops, and then stay by because you’d need to verify some things from it.” “I have heard you.” “Where are you?” “In front of her house,” he answered and glanced at the gate again before he pressed the honk of the car. “Alright. Don’t do anything stupid and don’t…” he was still saying when Zeke ended the call when the gate opened and then he drove in. === “Where is she?” Zeke asked the housekeeper who followed him as he ascended the stairs. “I am sorry, sir. She has not been in a good situation and I don’t think it is very advisable to s

    Zeke pushed the door open, barged in, and then walked closer to his friend whose head was buried on his computer. “Hey, what were you saying?” Ryan sat upright, leaned in his chair comfortably, and then placed his index finger on his lips. He tugged his lips into a smile and exhaled. “Talk clearly, don’t laugh!” Zeke warned with all seriousness that he could muster. “My friend,” Ryan swallowed, tilted his head, and then burst into laughter. “Talk!” “How… How did we become friends again?” Ryan asked amidst laughter and Zeke hissed, resting his weight on his left leg. “Oh, Ryan…” “Dude, you fucking got blackmailed by something you were not sure of! Are you a baby?!” “You mean to say the video is a fake?” “Guy!” Ryan laughed again. Zeke exhaled, pushed out a chair across him then settled on it. “I thought…” “You really thought it was you? Really?” “Ryan, she looked so sure!” “That is because she wanted to get you back! I can’t believe you fell for that.” “Me too…” “You

    A little taken aback, Ryan kissed back skeptically. Chloe noticed and pulled away from him, her face a few inches away from his. “You don’t want me? I thought you’ve always wanted this to happen,” Her eyes carried uncertainty in them “Not like that, Chloe. I want you,” He began placing his hands on both sides of her waist since she was atop him “I’ve always wanted you and I want this to happen but I don’t want to rush you. I don’t want to rush things. I want to be gentle with you all the way.” “Oh, spare me this ‘not wanting to rush me things.” Chloe flipped her hair, frowning a little as she placed her hands on his shoulders, leaned in, and kissed him hard. Still wondering where Chloe seemed to have gotten her sudden dominance from but having understood the message all the same, Ryan kissed back with so much fervor, his tongue fighting for dominance in her mouth. Her lips were softer than anything he had ever known, soft like a first snowball. It felt like biting into cotto

    Ryan stared at the woman who lay peacefully beside him and then smiled softly. He had won, for real. Remembering their moment the previous night while the sun crept in slowly, he reached his hand to her and then caressed her brown hair that was sprawled on the pillow. Gently, so as not to wake her up, he got out of the bed, adjusted the duvet on her, and then walked to the window to close the curtains properly. Wearing a shirt that was lying on the couch, he proceeded gently out of the room. *** Ryan returned to the room with a tray of Soft-Scrambled Eggs with Smoked Sablefish and Trout Roe, walked to the table beside the bed, and then dropped it gently. Almost immediately, Chloe stirred in her sleep, and he watched her closely while she yawned and then opened her eyes. “Good morning, pretty,” he smiled softly. Her eyes widened as she stared at the man staring at her so closely and then pulled the duvet to cover her face. Ryan laughed shortly and then watched as she peeped a

    Zeke did not know what to say. Seeing his sister, so early in a man’s house… his best friend at that was not what he was expecting. He needed not to be fucking told that she passed the night here… and things he would not like to imagine had happened. He had journeyed to Ryan’s house because he needed some information from him and the man had not been picking up his call. Since it was a Sunday, and he was less busy, he thought it was not bad if he just came around to meet him. But… this? The couple looked like they had seen a ghost. Chloe especially. Her face had suddenly gotten pale and she was grabbing onto the hem of the oversized top she was wearing. Did he fail to notice that both the polo and shorts belonged to Ryan? No. No way he could. “Brother,” she breathed out his name. When Zeke ignored Ryan who stood in front of him and turned to walk over to Chloe, Ryan hurriedly moved in front of him and he drew his brows together. “Let’s talk,” he sighed. Still, Zeke gave n

    The two of them lost count of how long they stood still in a position and glared at each other. Chloe returned shortly after with her bag, and Zeke looked down at her with a frown. She was still wearing Ryan’s clothes. “Where are your clothes?” She didn’t answer, instead, she moved in front of Ryan, pressed her lips together in something that seemed like guilt, and then curled her fist into a tight ball. “I am sorry,” She mouthed. Ryan shook his head, and as he took a step closer to her, Zeke covered the space between him and Chloe, grabbed her arm, and then dragged him to himself. “I said we are leaving.” Chloe snatched her arm away, hissed at him, and then walked to the door. “I will call you,” Ryan said. “I will kill you if you do,” Zeke shook his head and then turned to leave too. === Chloe sat in silence in the back seat of the car while Zeke drove away from the premises. At that moment, she regretted not having come with her car the previous night as she had no choi

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

    FINALE.“Everyone, my name is Natalie!”Came the tiny, adorable voice of the girl which made everyone murmur in excitement.“Hello everyone, I am Natalie, the older twin of my mommy and daddy,” she introduced again and the couple laughed where they sat.“Today, I stand before you… to read my heartfelt letter to my mommy and daddy,” she said again.“It’s all written here,” she brought out a paper, “But, I would not be reading it. 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.

    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
