After we went to the amusement park, I bring the kids to the mall, we buy some stuffs and the twins are very happy, their never ending energy worn me out. Good thing their nannies are here to help me and of course my men in black, Dean and Andy. Before we went out, Olivia told me that she could not come with us because she has some errands to do today and she also reminded me to be home before 3PM same as Nicholas what told me before. What is wrong with them? They know it is my twins birthday, at least why don’t they give us more time to spend together. It’s almost past two when we finished eating lunch at Duck and Waffle Restaurant and told Andy to get ready to go home and get the car in the parking. Dean carried all the stuffs that we bought and followed Andy and the two nannies carried my babies in their arms, they are both sleeping now, bet they are so tired for today.
I felt strange when we arrived at the mansion; the twins woke up from their nap and run immediately to Olivia when they see her. Olivia hugs and kisses the birthday brats and led them to the garden. I follow them and I see lots of people, the children running towards my babies hugging and greeting them both a happy birthday. The garden is fully decorated; there are balloons, chairs and tables. There is also a mini playground set up and inflatable slides, sound systems, waiters and a long cater of food, two huge six tier birthday cakes pink and blue. The twin’s favourite colours. Everything is so picturesque.
“So this was the errand you were talking about earlier?” I asked Olivia.
“uhhm, sort of, I also did something for the ball tomorrow.” She replied.
“Is this your idea?”
“Nope, its Nicholas my dear, he wants to fulfil the wishes of the kids. I just help him for the preparation.” I look on Nicholas standing by the pool with his cousin Darren and my Hannah running towards him. He lifts up Hannah in his arm and kisses him on the cheek. I am surprise with that sudden gesture of him but on the other hand, I feel something melting inside of me. Hannah is so at ease with him, she really thinks he is her daddy. Poor little girl she found her daddy in him.
“But they didn’t tell me about their wish.” I added and look on Olivia. “Why?”
“Don’t worry about it dear that is why we’re throwing them a party now. I invited all their friends in school. Come on!” Olivia told me and she takes a flute of champagne from the waiter.
I look at the direction of Nicholas again. I always see him wearing suits aside from his sweatpants, now he is wearing black skinny ripped jeans, white shirt and a black leather jacket with a pair of white sneakers. He looks so damn hot as always, no matter what he wears. He is still carrying Hannah while talking and laughing with Darren. “What is he doing to me now?”
I thought he doesn’t like my kids. But he did these kinds of things for them, I am so lost in my thoughts, so confused, my cold heart seems melting gradually, and I don’t like it.
I am sitting alone and watching my babies, they are so happy playing with their friends, suddenly Darren handed me a drink, I took it and smiled.
“Hi there, are you ready for the ball tomorrow?” He asked me.
“I am actually feeling uncomfortable hearing it, you know?” I told him without showing any expression but when he responded laughing I can’t help but to laugh with him as well. His laugh is so contagious as if I told him a very funny joke.
“It is actually a big event for my cousin. You know he is extra ordinary like a royalty. Don’t worry, Olivia and I will be there too.” He flashed a picture perfect smile and then bid his goodbye to talk to other guest who approached him. I like Darren he is funny and a good guy, my kids love him too.
I don’t know most of the guest, they are some nannies of the twin’s friends and some their aunts and moms and the other maybe Olivia’s friends. I wish Mirna and Kelly is here, and my Adam. I miss him so much.
The party ended up perfectly, my babies enjoyed too much and they are now super exhausted sleeping safe and sound on their beds. They received plenty of presents from their friends. Looking at them, I feel a tear run down my cheek. Too much emotions in me, Nicholas was here earlier, he told me to take a rest as well and call him whenever I need him, he kissed me on my forehead before he went down to his office room. I was speechless that time. I have so many things to tell him, I want to thank him for everything he has done to my kids but no words came out of my mouth. I just looked at him walked away in the room.
Nicholas POV
I made sure that this day is the best birthday party for the twins. I wanted to make them happy, as I wanted their mother to be. To be honest, I am not really into kids but the very first day they have arrived here and met the two in their bedroom.
They are so adorable, and Hannah is so sweet girl, very innocent, she reminds me of her mom, Harry is like me I thought, he is very cheery boy and aggressive one. I will do my best to protect them both just like their mom.
I asked Olivia to help me for the preparation of their party; a surprise party and it all went well. I could see my girl from afar; she was smiling looking at her babies happy playing with their friends. It’s been awhile since I haven’t seen her beautiful smile, she was no longer weak and I could see she had fully recovered from everything. When the party ended I accompanied her to the twin’s bedroom. I could sense she has something to tell me but she chose not to spill it. So I told her to take a rest and kissed her on her forehead before I went down to my office.
There, waiting is Olivia holding her glass of wine and Darren is drinking his scotch. I sit down beside Olivia and hold her hand.
“Thank you.” I told her, she smiled and said.
“No, sweetheart, thank you. Thank you for doing this, I knew Ara is also thankful and I think you made her very happy today.”
I smiled to that thought, and I hope so.
