The event takes place after 11 years after epilogue.
Isaiah is 21 yrs old
Alexis is 15 yrs old
Reece is 14 yrs old
Nyara is 4 yrs old
Kezr is 47 yrs old
Rozella is 42 yrs old
"Daddy!!"
My head snapped upwards to the door when I heard my daughter's extremely excited voice.
"Dad" from behind came Isaiah's bored voice.
"Dada!!" And then came my little baby Nyara.
"Baby K!" And then her voice.
I smiled exhaustedly and stood up from my office desk and walked up to my little daughter, crouching down to her.
"Hi Nyny!" I hugged her petite body and she instantly hugged me back.
"Dada!!" She screamed close to my ear and I flinched making Zella laugh.
"Hi beautiful." I picked up Nyara on my hip and approached Zella, kissing her forehead lightly.
"Hi baby K." She closed her eyes and then kissed me on the forehead too making me smile.
"Daddy I made so many drawings today!" I turned to my 15 year old.
"Oh. You want to show me?" I asked her pouting a little and she instantly nodded and took off her back pack.
It was clear that they had just gone back from school.
I looked at Zella silently asking her why she brought the whole package here.
"Zake and I are going to that meeting with those Arabs and we obviously can't take children, so take care of them. Will you?"
My smile faded and I sighed.
"Pleaseeee" she made her lips turn up making her smile more wide and looked at me with puppy eyes.
Don't fucking fall for it. I said don't.
"Can't you ask Aria or someone? I am working and you know I will not be able to give them my full attention"
I let Nyara go from my hands and placed her down as she was wiggling around in my hold.
"No I can't. They are your kids. Take care of them."
And suddenly they become my kids.
I sighed and looked at her one more time but her eyes brimmed with tears.
"What the fuck? Why are you crying?" I cupped her cheeks.
"You're not agreeing!" She stomped her foot on the marble floor like a child and I closed my eyes looking away.
I fucking married a fucking actress.
"Fine"
"That's my man!" She smiled wide and wiped her tears and I just rolled my eyes.
Can't believe you fall for it every time. Pussy.
I rolled my eyes internally and then turned back to look at the kids sitting close to Isaiah who has his head down.
My eyebrows scrunch up and I looked back at Rozella.
"He's been like this since the morning. I don't know what's wrong. I asked him but he just doesn't answer." I nodded and then turned around to catch a glimpse of him again.
"Where's Reece?" I asked her about our second son which was no where in sight.
"Don't tell me you forgot him in the car again." I narrowed my eyes at Zella.
Because yes, that has happened before.
"No! What do you take me for?... He's with Aria and Lily." I looked at her to see if she was lying but she stared back making me blush.
I still blush after many years. Yes I do.
She pinched my cheek and then kissed me longingly.
"Byebye!" I nodded and pecked her lips again and soon after, she left.
I turned around and looked at the three carbon copies of me and Zella. "Okay kids! Now! No misbehaving and no disturbing me. Okay?"
Both my daughters nodded smiling wide at me but Isaiah still had his head down.
I sighed and walked up to him but Nyara caught onto my leg.
"Dada! Up! Up!" She bounced and tried to climb up my leg.
I picked her up and she instantly clunge to me, kissing my nose making me scrunch my nose up and her giggle.
"Nyny wuvs you!" I smiled at her and gave her an eskimo kiss and she giggled loud.
"Dada loves you too, baby."
"What about me?" And there comes Lexi.
She stood there with her arms crossed over her chest. "Huh?"
I chuckled lowly and bent down to kiss her forehead, "yes, I love you too"
"Too is not good enough for me daddy!" She stomped her foot on the floor just like Rozella making me look at Nyara and groan.
I swear none of these kids inherited my personality traits.
"I love you." I said again and she shook her head but hugged me none the less.
"So what did you have to show me?" She immediately left my hug and pushed herself back, running off to the table and picked up a piece of paper.
"See?" She handed it to me and I looked at it and instantly, a smile made it's way to my face.
It was a drawing of her and I, with me giving her flowers and her hugging me.
Lexi was a really good sketcher and the drawing was on point. It couldn't be any more perfect.
She was definitely a daddy's girl.
"Thanks Lex. Have you been practicing?" She eagerly nodded and snatched the paper from my hand and went to the foam board in my office and thumb pinned her drawing on the board where the other 100 drawings were held.
I didn't even stop her. After all it was me who had planted it there so that it can be a piece of motivation for me.
I loved my little ones to death and would do anything for their happiness.
And with that being said. I kissed Lexi on the cheek and asked her to take care of Nyara as I approached Isaiah.
"Isa?" I sat down beside him but he didn't move one bit.
"Isaiah?" I touched his shoulder gently and his head turned to me.
"What's up?" He asked me and then turned his face down again.
"I am good but I can't say the same about you."
"You ain't wrong."
"Why? What happened?"
He didn't answer just kept his head ducked down and kept fidgeting with his hoodie's sleeve.
"Is it Roar?" I emphasized on the name knowing Roar was precious to him more than others.
But the answer I heard was much shocking. "It's this girl."
Ever since puberty hit him, or more like he hit puberty, he started dating and a bitch broke his heart making him turn into this... This man he is.
The man that doesn't date and instead of finding a suitable partner in his age, he finds one night stands.
Sadly.... I can say that this one has inherited my personality traits.
"Dad she's not like the others."
I leaned back on the couch with my leg spread and pinched my nose bridge.
"Even if it's a girl. What are you so upset about it? I have never seen you so upset about some girl."
"She's not some girl..." He trailed off and my eyes narrowed.
"What's her name? And don't tell me you don't know."
He shook his head and looked back at me.
"I remember.... It's Eliza." My eyes widened as the words left his mouth.
"I like her... Like, really like her. I went to the bar that day and found her there. She looked just... Just a ray of beam there, smiling and giggling. Dancing around so freely."
I coughed to take him out of his trance in which he was in, describing her with a smile on his face.
"I don't get what's the problem."
"She has a boyfriend."
It didn't surprise me. Not at all.
"Not like that has ever stopped you before."
He sighed and turned to me, sitting with his legs crossed on the couch.
"She's very very committed and loyal to that damned asshole."
I went to say something but he balled his fists and an angry look took upon his face.
"She asked me for a fucking dance and I fucking agreed. Why would she, if she had a boyfriend? And then had the fucking audacity to stomp my fucking toe after I tried to kiss her" he raised and dropped his hands in the air, irritated.
"I don't think your mother will approve of that language, son." He looked down to his lap and nodded meekly.
"As for her, no matter if a girl dances with you or not, you can't touch her without her consent. I thought we taught you better but we obviously went wrong in some places" I rolled my eyes.
"So I deserved that?"
"Purely deserved it."
He huffed and looked out the window.
"What do I do, man? I really like her."
"Isaiah, I don't know if you really do or not but one thing I am sure about is that with this attitude you can definitely not get her."
He looked at me with confused eyes.
"You don't talk about women as if their objects. Change the company you sit in and throw toxic ones out of your life. You're not like this"
His head dropped.
"Now. If you really like her, or supposedly as you claim. Then you will wait for her. Wait for her to either break up with him for you, or break up with your non existent relationship for him."
"Dad! I don't want to fall in love with some girl. Fuck." He muttered low under his breath and I shook my head, getting up.
I don't know where Zella and I went wrong but it's all our fault that he is like this.
As I turned around my eyes widened when I couldn't find Nyara and Lexi anywhere.
"Where are your sisters?" I turned to him and looked at him as he looked confused too.
"Probably outside." He pointed to the opened door and I groaned and ran to the door and outside.
After searching for 30 whole minutes for the both of them, Isaiah and I stopped as we heard a girl's cries.
I turned to Isaiah with a look for horror on my face.
We immediately ran to where the sound was coming from and found ourselves standing outside my assistant's door.
"Leave our daddy alone! He's flipping married!"
"Mommy would kill the chicken stripes out of you! You blonde hair caterpillar!"
My eyes were out of their sockets and my face turned pale as I heard their voices. Especially Nyara. She was speaking normally and not in her baby innocent voice that she always does.
Isaiah threw open the door and the scene in front of him made him gasp out loudly.
There sat my two daughters..... On top of my assistant who was thrashing around to get out of their holds.
"How dare you speak so disgustingly about our daddy?!" I saw as Lexi punched her face and she coughed blood.
"One more Lex, I don't think this bitch understands us!"
Bitch?!
Bitch?!!!!
BITCH?!!!!!!
Who the fuck is doing this to my children?!
Isaiah lunged forward and picked up a screaming Lexi off of my assistant and I picked up a cheering Nyara.
Fren was crying badly and her head looked like a nest for bird's poop. A nest not for birds but their poop.
"Alexis!" She jumped from her place.
"D-daddy?" She instantly dropped her tough facade and batted her eye lashes at me.
"And you young lady!" I looked at Nyara and saw her hiding behind Isaiah.
Isaiah pushed her in front and Nyara muttered a small, 'witch' which I am sure meant snitch.
Oh she's back to being a cute one?
I grabbed both of their hands and sent them outside with Isaiah.
"Daddy she was telling someone how she wants to jump your bones and I quote her 'wants to fuck the living shit out of you',"
What in the world?
"Yes dada! Lexi is wight!" Nyara cheered on and highfived Alexis.
My head snapped to Fren show was standing there shaking in her boots.
"Is this true?" I spoke through my gritted teeth.
"O-of course not! They are lying!" She shouted at my face.
"Fren?"
"Yes sir" she smiled at me with her bloody busted lips.
"You're fired. Leave the building in the next 10 seconds or so God help me." I looked up at her and saw that she had her eyes widened.
"Sir they're lying!"
I walked towards her almost close to her face.
"No one calls my kids liar. That's enough of a big reason for me to fire your horny ass.... Now out!" I shouted loud and she jumped from her place.
She wiped her tears and collected her things and scurried off to the elevator.
There goes our 34th assistant this week.
I sighed and turned to Lexi and Nyara who were laughing while whispering into Isaiah's ear.
"You all are grounded."
Their head snapped to me as fast as flash.
"I didn't even do anything!" Isaiah complained and whined.
"You exist."
He blinked.
I looked down at Nyara and she smiled up at me. I can't ground this cutie. Now can I?
"No chocolates Nyara"
"Otay dada!" She giggled and hugged my leg.
I smiled and rubbed her back and Lexi pouted.
"I have to meet Jason!"
"Gives me another reason to ground you."
"Daddy!!" She whined.
"Alexis. One more word and one more week of punishment." I warned her and she looked down.
"Dad?"
"I told you. You exist."
He rolled his eyes.
"It's not that." He looked behind me and I turned around to see Zella standing there with Zake.
"Dude... You're P-H-U-C-K-E-D!" He laughed loud making me roll my eyes. Fucker.
"Zelli... I can explain." I put my hands up front but she just nodded sarcastically and grabbed me by my ear making everyone around us laugh.
"Ow ow! Zella!"
"Walk peasant!" She glared at me and I submitted to her and let her drag me along with her.
This is definitely not gonna end well.
