The Father Of My Twins Chapter 2 The Airport

"Boss, everything is ready". A man in his early thirties approached him, he was dressed in Black well ironed suit and pants. The Boss that he referred to only slightly nodded his head in acknowledgement before majestically coming down from the plane through the stairs. Just then, five Black expensive cars arrived at where he was to welcome him. Lucian as always, wore a straight expressionless face, he was Majestic and Charming as always, even after all those years.

He made his way to one of the cars, after which the cars began and drove off. Just then, another plane arrived at the airport, with steadiness, the plane finally touched the floor as its tires made sounds as it came in contact with the ExpressWay.

"Finally.... I would say". Indeed there's no place like home!. She thought as she sniffed the fresh air of the City. She could already feel familiar with the City, she wouldn't lie, but as soon as she came down from the plane, different emotions and memories replayed inside her head. But she was extremely sure not to make that cause her to be weak!. She's a brand new Anya after that day of her divorce, why would she even be bothered?. It's not as if she has anything to do with any single one of them, she just hopes during her stay here, that she doesn't cross paths with anyone familiar with her, even though that happened, she will just ignore them.

She stared at Zach and Zeke, thank goodness that they both look like her a lot, except for their eyes that are identical to his. But who cares or gives a damn?. It's not as if it's only him that has the right to have this eye colour.

The Father Of My Twins Chapter 3 Caught A Glimpse Of Her Face

The principal was stunned because of the two young boys.... They seemed to be smart just like a Young adult. But indeed, they gave him tons of trouble with their smart questions. For Zeke: ".... Mister, don't you think it'll be distracting for the kids to learn with the TV in place?". Zeke wasn't satisfied seeing how childish the classroom was, and not only that.... What's more annoying is the Tv set. It's not as if he exactly hated the idea of a TV in the classroom, but the fact that the cartoon the TV displayed was so childish to him. To him, it was meant for a 6 months old kid.

"Thanks a lot for your assistance.... We'll take our leave now!". Anya hurriedly took both Zach and Zeke with her. Her little pumpkins seem to give her a tough time today, she didn't even have the opportunity to compose a single sentence without Zach and Zeke interrupting her. But fortunately for her, the registration went well.... That was enough for her.

"Babies.... How about going to school from tomorrow?. You know, it's for the best".

"Why do I feel that you're trying to get rid of us?". Zeke's question stunned her. How the hell would she want to get rid of her babies that she suffered hardship just to give birth to them?. Never in a million years would she let that happen!.

"Who told you that?. Hmph. You're becoming a brat, and that's making me sad".

Zach's little hand pet Anya before he glared at Zeke.

The Father Of My Twins Chapter 4 Boss, We Found Her!

"Eh.... You two?....". Anya was finding Zach and Zeke really weird to her. After paying for what they suggested, now they want her to drive them back to the hotel?. This is not what she intended to happen when she brought them here in the first place, her plan was to spend the whole day with them because from tomorrow, she'd be a lot more busy with work. With her Boss running on her tail every second, she'll have to work really hard to design the best dress ever created!.

"Hey babies, whatever you may be thinking in your little heads, but this is definitely not the time to go back.... We're all going to have fun until night falls!". Anya was surprisingly strong because she was able to carry up both Zeke and Zach in her arms. "Come on, there's a park I love, but too bad I didn't have the opportunity back then to go. But now... I think I should". She giggled as she said.

"I should do this for you.... You seem to be really happy, Mommy". Zeke thought. Since his mommy wants to spend her day today having fun, he would make that happen for her. "Mommy, you better not back out because we're going to enter the most epic ride ever over there".

"Of course Zeke.... Your Mommy over here is tough!".

He sighed deeply before saying. "If only you were this tough back then". He muttered to himself.

"Did you say something Zeke?". She asked because she didn't quite hear him well.

The Father Of My Twins Chapter 5 Brother?

"Wow!!!.... Mommy, this is so amazing!". Zach said out excitedly as the ride finally stopped. This is their 17th ride in this park. Anya was super energetic to give up today, so she stuck around and played every ride and game she could find.

"That's right Zach.... Mommy can always take you here if you want". She assured him and he smiled while nodding his head before directing the ice cream that he held in his mouth.

"Mommy, can we go home now?. I can't be exhausted because of school tomorrow". Zeke said out loud. When his mommy first brought them to this park and he somehow supported her idea, he never expected this to last this long. She has almost entered all the whole rides but she wasn't yet satisfied. The time now was 5pm, and he planned to return home earlier than this so he could begin with his plan with Zach. But Zach also disappointed him a little, he was so lost that he gave in to the rides forgetting about the deal that they made.

"You're right.... I almost forgot about school. How about we make a deal young man, if you let mommy enjoy a new ride one more time, I promise you won't go to school tomorrow. How about that?". She suggested.

"Sure mommy. You can enjoy as many rides as you want, I won't bug you again". Zeke immediately said. "This will be easier to plan if we don't go to school tomorrow". He thought happily.
