chapter 4

Alexa

Three years later

"Ms. Johnson." I look up to see my secretary, Hera come and standing in front of me.

"Yes? Anything?" I said and smile at her.

"Actually you have a meeting now and everyone is waiting for you." My eyes widen cause I totally forgot about that meeting.

"Oh god. How can I forget about it? Let's go now." I said and take my phone also with the file that needed for the meeting. We walk out and go to the meeting room to see that everyone are here. "I'm sorry I'm late. Can we start now?" With that, the meeting starts.

Well as you know, I have my own boutique now. I start to open my own company and now here I am. A fashion designer and I are really happy with it. I have more than 5 boutiques and one at London, one at Milan the other 3 are at where I start my dream, Los Angeles. I start my new life here with all the money I got from my part-time job and now my income already stable. I started this business just like two years ago and Thea was the one who helps me so much. Basically, both of us owned this boutique. I studied in fashion and design back when I'm in university, so I take that as an opportunity for me to start my own clothing line.

It's all started with a small shop and then we got so much request to open a boutique and all. Thea and I worked so hard to earn money to open our first boutique, we got lots of problems at first but then after a few months, it's started to become better and better.

The meeting was about my new branch in Brooklyn, New York. The launching will be held in three days and of course, I feel excited and a bit nervous.


The moment I open the door, my babies run towards me and hug my feet. Yup, you heard it right, my babies. I'm pregnant with twins one boy and one girl, Gabriel and Gabriella and of course, that's my other happiness that happened in my life. Thea was the one who helped me through all this. I'm really glad that I got a best friend like her. Now, she's staying at Paris cause she got a job there as an interior designer. It's been two years she moves there but we still contact each other and met some time. I told her to stay with me and work together with me in expanding this business but she said to me that being an interior designer was her dream. So I need to let her go.

"Hey, my love." I hug both of them then kiss their cheeks. I put my handbag on the table and walk to the living room with them. "So, tell me what are you doing today?" I ask.

"We eat." Gabriel and Gabriella said in unison and that makes me laugh cause they're so cute.

"That's it?" I look at both of them.

"We play, sleep and eat," Gabriel said and then he grins at me. Then Dolly, the nanny that I hired to take care of my babies walk into the living room. "Oh hey Dolly," I said and she sends me a smile.

"Umm Ma'am. I didn't shower them yet. May I take them and go shower?" She said.

"If that so, that's fine. besides, I want to bring them to the playground. So if they take a shower now, they might need to take a shower again." I said and then Gabriel and Gabriella sequel in happiness. "Are you guys happy?" They both nodded their heads.

"Dolly I'm going to change my clothes first. You get the kids ready." She nodded her head and I make my way to my room too. I pick the casual outfit. I put my hair in a low bun then walk out from my room. I wait for them in the living room and a few minutes later, I heard their footsteps running down the stairs. "Mommy let's go!" They said in unison and I walk to see them already stand at the door with an excited face.

"Dolly you can go home now. I can manage." She nodded her head and take her bag to go home.


"Gabriel, Gabriella doesn't run. Oh gosh." I said while shaking my head. They're so hyper. I just look at Gabriel and Gabriella playing on the playground while sitting on one of the benches there. I smile looking at both of them. They're so cute. Gabriel has dark brown hair and brown eyes while Gabriella has light brown hair and brown eyes too.

Just then my phone ring. I take out from my pocket and pick up the call.

After a few minutes, I close my phone and look at the playground to see if Gabriel and Gabriella are okay. I look around but they're not there. Suddenly, I feel so anxious and immediately get up from my seat and look for them. "Gabriel! Gabriella!" I shouted but they're not there.

I look around the whole park but still can't find them. Suddenly my tears come out without any warning. No, they can't be missing. I need to find them. God help me. I wipe my tears and look back at the playground. They're my life and now they're not in this playground. Where are they? I look around the playground like crazy and the tears keep rolling down my cheeks.

Just then, I saw them at one of the tables near the playground and eating ice cream? I run to them and see they're eating ice cream peacefully. I take a deep breath of relief and sit next to Gabriella. I wipe my tears and look at them.

"Where are you guys went? Huh? You know you almost makes me have a heart attack." I said and both of them just grin at me with their innocence faces.

"That kind uncle brings us to the ice cream shop and buys us this," Gabriel said.

"Kind uncle? Who's that? Why are you not telling me, Gabriel, what if he is a kidnapper? You might never see me again. What if he brought you both to some unknown places and then kill you and I might never see you both ever again. This is not safe for you both to follow some stranger even though they got a bunch of candies or ice cream. You are not supposed to follow people you don't know. Do you guys hear me?" I said and they both nodded their head and still eating that ice cream.

"No mommy, he's good. You're busy so, he just bought us ice cream. Sorry, mommy." Gabriella said and look at me with her kitten eyes. Gosh, this kid knows how to make my heart soft.

"Fine this time both of you been forgiven but next time don't follow some stranger ever again alright? This is so dangerous. listen to me it's Dangerous." They nodded their heads.

"After this, both of you take a shower," I said and look at them. Both of them have ice cream all over their face and shirts.

We're now on our way to go home. It's not taking to long to arrive at home cause the park is not that far it just takes about 10 minutes by car.

I take them out of the car and walk with them inside the house. "Now go to your room and open your clothes then put it in the basket," I said and they walk upstairs.

I get into my room and put my handbag and phone on the bed then go to their room to get them clean. It's a disaster to let them both take a bath together cause right now, I'm drenched like I've been taking a bath too. That's a good thing that it's finished.

I walk downstairs after I change into new clothes. I cook our dinner and when it's done, I call the twins to come down. "Sit first I take your bip to prevent the food fall on your PJs." They take their seat.

The times is nearly ten now. "Gabriel, Gabriella, let's go to bed now." I walk into the living room and switch off the television. I hold both of their hands and walk upstairs together.

"You guys need a good sleep cause tomorrow we're going to New York," I said when I set them on the bed.

"Mommy, Can I ask something?" Gabriel ask. "What it is honey?" I replied.

"Did our dad is kinda like the kind uncle that we met at the playground?" He asks makes me raised my eyebrows.

"Why are you out of the sudden asks me that?" They never ask about Elijah and this is the first time they ask.

"Cause he's so kind. He said if he met us again, he will buy us other things." Gabriella reply.

"Ummm yeah your dad is a good person and no you're not going to meet that 'kind' uncle ever again. that's dangerous." I said even though I don't want to say that 'good person' but I need to talk nicely to these kids. I wish I can say that their father was a cheater, arrogant, stupid, jerk, manwhore, dickhead and assholes man I've ever met but Gabriel and Gabriella were too young for that.

"Now, stop talking about it and sleep." I said and kiss their forehead before walk out from the room.
