Wedding Bells

Chapter 12: 5 years later

5 years later . . .

I got settled in Ireland. I wanted to go to US but I can't. If I make my new passport and go back to US then Philip would most likely know me and try to hurt Nick and since we have a child now, Philip could also try to hurt our child and I have to take care of my baby. Nick's baby. Our baby. So, we are settled in Ireland. A peek of the Ireland is below.

I remember Nick all the time and I remeber how we spend time together. I still spend a lot of my time in night rembering how we used to spendin time together in school and what we did in the spring festivals. Sometimes, I cry a lot rembering what happened 5 years ago.

"Mommy!" I heard my little baby said.

I looked down to my son who was holding an apple. His eyes were the same as Nick's and his hair was the same brown as Nick's. "Yes Ray?"

"Mommy, I want an apple. Can you cut it for me?" Ray asked.

"Sure, babe," I said as I took the apple from his hand and cut it into small pieces for him to eat. Ray remind me so much of Nick. Nick also loves apples.

"Mommy, are you going to drop me to my school?" Ray asked.

"Yes, love," I said. "But, you have to be a good boy now and wear your school dress, okay?"

"Okay, mommy," Ray said as he ran upstairs and got dressed.

I went to my room and got dressed for my office. I am the head manager of a five star hotel in Ireland. I wore a simple outfit. The picture of my outfit is below.

I heard Ray running down the stairs. Ran ran down the stairs and hugged me. "Mommy! Let's go to school!"

"Alright honey," I said as I took Ray on my amrs and got out of our house which was small, yet big and locked the door. I and Ray went near our car and got in the car and I drove Ray to his school.

"Bye mommy!" Raya said as he hugged me.

"Bye honey," I said as I kissed his forhead and drove to the hotel that I am working on. I was working on a famouse hotel and today, a very famous businessman is going to come to ireland from US. I parked my car and I was going near the hotel as I could see a lot of media people were taking pictures and videos of a very famous businessman. I sighed as I tried to go in the hotel but got bumped my somebody and was going to fall but somebody caught me by my waist.

"Thank you," I said as I looked at the person and was shocked. That person was Nick and he was wearing a very formal business outfit. He picture of his outfit is below.

My eyes welled up as I wanted to hug him when some other people pushed us appart and I couldn't find Nick anymore. Was it my imagination or Nick was really in Ireland? But why even if Nick was here in Ireland then why would he wear a business outfit. Nick is a teacher, not a businessman. It's probably my imagination.

I went to my office and started to work for the hotel. After a while, I got a phone from Ray's school. "Hello?"

"Hi Mrs. Urick. Your son got into a fight at the Ouch time wih another kid and got some buirish," Ray's teacher said.

"What? But why? Can I talk to Ray?"

The teacher gave the phone to Ray.

"Hi mommy," Ray said.

"Hi babe, why did you got into a fight?" I asked Ray.

"Mommy, a boy in my class said that my daddy is mean and don't love me and that's why he doesn't live with us. I got mad and punched him and then he punched me too," Ray said.

Oh goodness! "Ray honey, you shouldn't pick a fight okay? I am going to get you from your school now, okay?"

"Okay mommy," Ray said.

I sighed and hung up the phone and got out of the hotel and got in my car and drove to Ray's school. Ray always talks about how much he wants his dad to be with us but of course I can't tell him the trust him. Ray is too young for that. I got to Ray's school and got him in the car and drove to home.

We went in the house and I got some ices and applied on Ray's cheek and arms. "Make sure not to get into fight anymore, okay?"

"Okay but mommy, why doesn't daddy live with us? Why is daddy lives in another country? Does daddy doesn't love us?" Ray asked as his eyes became watery.

"No Sweetheart," I said as I kissed his forhead. Your daddy doesn't even know that you are born, Ray."Your daddy is not mean, love."

Ray started to cry. "Then, why is dad with us, mommy?"

"Shhh, Ray," I said as I kissed kissed forhead and cheek and hugged him. "Daddy loves you a lot, Ray." Atleast, I hope Nick loves you Ray. "Why don't you watch TV?"

Ray smiled as he whipped his tears and sat on the sofa and turned on the TV. "Mommy look! A funny man is talking in the TV and he is crying."

I looked at the TV and was shocked. I could see Nick in the TV in that same business outfit and he had tears in his eyes. "My wife, Maxine Urick, has been missing for 5 years. If you find her then please inform me in this number . . ." Nick said as there was a number in the TV. "She is my world and I need her."

"Mommy! That man's wife has the same name as you. That's so funny, mommy," Ray laughed.

That's not funny, Ray. That man is your daddy. My eyes became watery as I put the number on my phone and phone Nick. I didn't care that he is going to hate for what happened to his dad because of me but I wanted him to talk to me. I wanted Nick to know about his son. Our son.

"Hello?" Nick said in the phone.

By hearing Nick's voice was making me cry.

"Mommy, why are you crying?" Ray asked.

I wish I could have told Ray but what am I going to tell Ray? Moreover, what am I going to tell Nick? What will happen if he doesn't except our baby.
