The Billionaire's Surrogate

Chapter 18

*A month and half later*

      "Mommy?" 

   What's happening? Who is that calling out for mommy?

   I sit up in bed, but my surroundings are unfamiliar. I don't recognize the room I'm currently sitting in.

    "Mommy, help me" came the small voice again but even though it was crying for help, it was in fact filled with laughter.

   My eyebrows furrowed in confusion.

   The door to the room burst open and in came a small boy with chocolate coloured hair and the chubbier cheeks. They were red from all his laughter and I couldn't help but smile at him.

   He was no older than 4 years old. He looked up at me and his eyes look so familiar, so blue with wisps of grey in them.

    "Mommy save me!" he shouted and jumped into my arms, catching me by surprise. He shoved his face under my arms and I held him close so he would not fall from my lap.

   His laughter only increased causing me to let out giggles as well.

    "What's wrong baby?" I asked, concerned.

   "He's coming to get me mommy" he said and I heard a growl simultaneously. The growl was that of a person, pretending to me a monster of some sort.

     He heard it too and he leapt from my arms and flew over the other side of the bed, bending down.

    "I'm gonna get him. Where is he? Rawr" I heard somebody approaching the room, speaking in a playful monster tone.

    "Mommy tell him I'm not here" the little boy said as he tried to hold in his little giggles.

     I looked toward the door and my heart skipped a beat at what I saw. Anthony, with his hair tousled and crawling on his knees.

    "Did you see a boy run in here babe. I've come to eat him" he said and my breath hitched as he called me babe.

    The baby boy laughed and I'm sure Anthony heard him as he too laughed and started to crawl in his direction.

    "I'm coming to eat you!" he got up to his feet and ran towards the baby boy and scooped him up into his arms and dumped him on the bed.

    Anthony started to pretend he was gobbling him up and the baby boy could not contain his laughter.

   I stood up from my sitting position to better see the two playing. I noticed I was wearing a night gown and my hair was braided to the side.

    Their playing started to subside and I noticed the baby boy wipe away a tear. His face was beet red and he was sweaty.

   "Mommy you let the monster catch me" he said pouting. "I'm sorry baby, he was too smart" I said.

   I held out my arms and he came and gave me a hug. His tiny arms felt so nice around my sides. He lay his head above my breast and I couldn't help but close my eyes and relish the feel.

    "Look at my babies. I love you two so much" Anthony said, causing me to open my eyes and look in his direction. His eyes were identical to that of the little boy. The baby was almost identical to Anthony, sharing the same features.
