It's been a week now,Rionald always making sure to visit Kadishia and Grace whilst taking care of the kids at Kadishias house. It wasn't as easy as it sounds but he managed on top of being a businessman. The following week,they were all recovering,so Rionald decided to take Kadishias family (the kids) to go see them. As a man raising men,They truly couldn't just show up bare handed. They quickly passed by town just to grab a few things for them. Blessing took a big teddy bear ,it has Pink,White and a red heart on it and black eyes as well as it's limbs. " This is a perfect gift for my sister",They both agreed. Since Kadishia has finally agreed to become Rionald's official Girlfriend three days back,he decided to get her something nice. They entered American Swiss, a*****e with quality watches, necklaces, Bracelets, earrings and rings. He hardly could think of what really to get her,so he looked around calmly while focused on the items one by one. Finally he saw one pretty necklace, it was a combination of both gold and silver. It looks so attractive and the design is one to die for. He checked the price first, "Off course it has to be expensive,it's such a gem" ...He said as he asked to buy it. They finally got it and they went to a grocery store to buy some flowers and chocolates and food as usual as he does and they drove to the hospital. The boys couldn't contain their happiness at all, both couldn't wait to see their mother and sister. Tell you what? They felt like the drive was taking forever! Because tell them why it usually takes a blink of an eye to reach but today feels like decades... Well,they're finally at the hospital....Everyone was carrying something with him: Rionald with flowers and the necklace, Blessing with the teddy bear, Emmanuel with food and drinks while Joy Carried the chocolates. As the door opened, Everyone was ready to run..Rionald had to warn them about the condition of the mother and sister before they did so.What would happen if they did? worse right...? Well they entered calmly and hugged them one by one,Rionald had to Give a hug and a forehead kiss to Kadishia as a symbol of adoration. They then offered their gifts. Grace was so happy to have such a big teddy with her favourite colours. " Your name is Favour" ,She said as she smiled. Lastly it was now Rionald's chance to offer his gift. He opened the small box and takes out the necklace, it's shining and very beautiful. " I am giving you this necklace Kadishia as a promise to always love you, please accept it" . He said as he looked into her eyes waiting for the answer. "Wow!!! What a beautiful piece indeed! Off course I will accept it,Thank so very much I truly love it and it's very pretty. You're truly a blessing in my life. " She said with tears rolling down her cheeks because of excitement. Rionald kneels down and put on the necklace. He then wiped away the tear and gently hugged her. He kissed her hand as Well. As all this was happening,the kids were witnessing. They both clapped hands in amusement. Visiting time was over ,so they had to leave now, they said farewell and left. Finally the day of being discharged has come, Rionald was assisting his woman and child to enter the car....As usual,he bought flowers for her and placed them on her seat. She loves flowers and was so excited to find them in the car. They bought some things at the market and drove home. Guess what? Blessing and the siblings made a welcome back home Decor! It looked beautiful....There was food and drinks . What lovely kids does Kadishia have? After Lunch,Rionald left for his daily usual business. A man has to be hardworking so he can provide for his family. The next day Kadishia called work, She told them she was on sick leave for a month. So this was one of the biggest opportunities for Kadishia because Rionald Asked her to be managing at least one business for him. The aim was to see how far she would raise a business. She really had a helping hand,despite all the challenges that might have risen here and there. They say in business expect both to loose and gain / win. She even managed to open another cash loan within just that month . Rionald was very amazed so he decided that She's no longer going back to work...She's finally a businesswoman. Days are going and coming,so as months and years. Kadishia and Rionald's relationship became the talk of the town. The kids have now grown up and completely took Rionald as their father, despite the fact that he had no biological child of his own. Blessing is now 17, Joy 15, Emmanuel 13 and Grace 11. They're all teenagers now and it's the most crucial stage in an individual's life. Blessing wrote his matrix this year and Joy Grade 10. Emmanuel was promoted to grade 8 and Grace to grade 6.This kids were all smart and always won trophies. Its now the end of the year, December is finally here. Christmas and New year is well celebrated in Kadishias household. As usual in most African Countries, Results always comes out in January. Blessing had only 3 days left whilst Joy has a week because Grade 12 and Grade 10 results always comes out separately. Every child has to be scared,You would even spend days without eating properly, or being around people as usual. Most kids are likely to isolate themselves. The evening of Emmanuel's results to be out,they were seated in the sitting room, discussing how proud they wanted to make their parents especially the mother after all the hardships and sacrifices she did to provide and raise them. Today is the day,It was around 8 when Kadishia asked Emmanuel to bring his student number so they can check his results.She was still in bed ,so Emmanuel had to come to her room. She requested on her cellphone as they were instructed. To her surprise,Emmanuel had 38 points with a B symbol in English. She jumped out of the bed in excitement and hugged Emmanuel. " Thank you for making Mom Proud,Thank you for making my sacrifices not go to waste. " She said with tears in her eyes. Emmanuel was so happy..... even if he expected not to pass brightly as such because somehow he doubted some papers and dared if he would ever pass them. Rionald heard the good news ,and as a responsible father he's..He bought Blessing a HP laptop and a Smartphone because he will obviously need them at University as part of his Learning. "Thank you Father,May you never lack anything. You have always been an amazing Father to us. " He said as he received the items. That night, They had to go out and celebrate Emmanuel as a family. Rionald took them to one fancy restaurant where they fully enjoyed their Dinner and had fun together. Joy's day came and he made it to Grade 11 with 30 points to. As a family tradition...anyone who does good should be awarded and so was Joy. School has started, One day Grace was walking from school. A young boy at the same school with the name Laurence stopped her. He was running from behind her while calling her name. She was obviously wondering what the boy wants..." Is he looking for directions or maybe he was sent by a Teacher to call me? " She questioned herself as she waits up. The boy approached her and introduced himself after greeting her. He said he needs her help on a Mathematics homework he doesn't understand and asked if she could help. Grace isn't a bad person at all, so she agreed. The young man opened his backpack and took out a folded paper. He quickly handed it over and runs off saying his friends are leaving him behind. Grace didn't open the paper,she just put it in her bag and continued her journey.
