Chapter 35
Along with the cold wind blowing on our skin. I remembered what she said that it was her way to make us feel that even though she is gone, she still loves us. And the wind makes you feel that.
I smiled even though my tears were starting to fall. This is insane. Our son is holding both of my hands..
“Han, do you know that I miss you. Not because you are far away. Not because I love you. But because I will never see you again. I will be able to hold you..” my tears continued to flow. It’s like my heart is being squeezed. The twins tightened their grip on both of my hands.
“I always dream of you. They say that when you dream of someone. They say that person misses you. They remember you. And I believe that. Because I know that you love me very much. You always told me how much you love me. I miss when you don’t talk to me or see me, don’t I. I miss you so much, my love.. my voice breaks when I say that..
“Han, it’s a pity that our children didn’t see that but only in the photo. Do you know that they inherited from you. You are so deceitful. Your blood is strong. You even beat me. I miss you even more because of our children. But I am grateful You brought them back to life. I’m lucky to have them. I hope you’ll always remember me I’ll just think of you. Even if it hurts, it’s okay because I love you so much. I can’t love anyone else.” The two hugged me like I did.
“We’re proud of you appa!” Dryce nodded while frowning.
“Mama loves you very much, too, daddy. And we are very proud of you!” Yohann said bravely. I smiled and picked them both up. I kissed their foreheads many times. Then I put them down again. Joshua was just looking at us silently.
I took two boxes from my pocket.
“Children. Do you know? Your Mommy gives you something. As soon as you go out, she has a gift.” I can see the surprise and amazement in their eyes. That was replaced by a smile and excitement.
“Really?” the twins said at the same time. I nodded and took out the necklace with Yohann’s name engraved on it and then with diamonds on both sides. Yohann’s eyes flashed as he stared at the pendant. I slowly attached it to his neck. He held onto it and happily closed his eyes as he cried.
“I love.. you.. Mommy..” she said. Miles hugged her. I turned to Dryce who was sobbing. Her eyes filled with tears. They are like her mother’s eyes, only the brown and black in her eyes are bigger.
“App-a..” I smiled and put on him the necklace similar to Yohann’s with Axendryce engraved on it..
Dryce hugged me after I put the necklace on her.. There was a group hug when Joshua’s children hugged us.
We left there together. I feel better somehow.
Even though I’m busy at work, I always take our son with me.
“Aren’t you tired, Yuan, of taking care of your children?” My Aunt asked me.
I shook my head and continued signing and checking on my laptop. While my children were playing.
“Why don’t you get married? My friend’s daughter, Kristelle. Don’t you want to be there? I heard you two were schoolmates?” People around me always link me to people I don’t like and who I vaguely like. ..
“Stop it. I don’t have time for useless things. I’m a family person. It doesn’t matter to me if I have a lot of work and I have a lot of duties to fulfill such as parenting my children. Because I don’t want and they don’t want to have someone to replace instead of their mother, you have nothing to suggest to me. I never asked for your mercy or opinion.. You can leave.” I pushed her away. It was painful because of the embarrassment and stormed out of the office.
I have no worries as long as my children are with me.
“Bro, Are you okay?” Raz asked me. We are now hanging out at the Mansion. The kids are asleep so we’re here and drinking on the veranda.
“Yes. I’m just tired from work.” I said and gulped down the beer I was holding.Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
“As long as you need our help, we’re here. Aren’t you guys?” my best friends nodded at the same time.
“the speed of time. As our children grow faster and faster,” said Rj. And eating chips.
“Yeah. And it looks like someone will take our place.” Raz said foolishly. That makes me black. Rj and Jasteen did the same, they grinned at the same time.
“Crazy people. Yohann is still young that’s why he’s so windy.”
“That’s it, bro. It’s a windy child. Hahaha!” I continued to attack Raz.
“Just kidding.” we laughed and continued drinking.
“Bro, joshua. Are we really going to arrange a marriage with Edzel and my son?” asked Rj. Joshua nodded.
“Yes, bro there is no problem with me then our spouses discussed that again. They are the boss bro.” we laughed. They used to be the boss of women now they are the slave..
“No more thorny and fierce playboys and brave young men. Hahaha!” teased Zel. gago is already babbling.
“Jerk!” we just cheered and drank until we had a lot and were equally tipsy.
And someone is right..
“Tol, what are your plans for your children?” Raz asked me. Noticing that I was quiet.
“I’m not a fan of fix marriage, you know that even though it’s in our tradition. I don’t want to strangle them and be strict with them which will cause them to distance themselves from me. I’d rather they marry who they really love and love whether they are rich or poor. As long as they are expensive.”
“very well said..” said Zel. Jasteen and I joined together.
“Of course, as a father.. I don’t want to tie them down and oblige them if it’s against their will. They won’t be happy there.. They will also distance themselves from me because I forced them to do something they don’t want. Then the mother will only be angry with me them if he happens to be here.” I said seriously. They nodded then smiled.
