"It's her decision to come over with her friend. I have nothing to do with this." He shrugged his shoulders.
"I heavily doubt it. If other kids came along with your nephew for taking your nerve, will you be given them the same answer? Is it an office or a daycare?" I raised my brows. For that, he remained calm.
Cat caught his tongue.
"My mom couldn't able to take care of me, so uncle suggested me to come over his office after school. I want to Sweety with me too." His face dropped.
Rachel...She is pregnant. Maybe that's the reason why she couldn't able to attend full care of him. I felt pity for this young boy.
Now I don't know what to do? Neither I drag Sweety away from him nor let her play with her friend along with this devil? 'Just one day.' my inner mind answered my question.
"Okay.." I patted his head and gave Kayish's one stern look before turning the doorknob to leave. He coughed lightly and took the water bottle from his table.
"Mommy... Mommy!!" Sweety called my name that instantly put a halt to my stride.
"Yes, baby?" I kneeled to her size.
"Karan is going to have his baby brother soon to play with him. I want one too." She pouted her lips once again making me caught off guard.
Whereas he spat his water when he heard what she actually meant. His eyes widen and had a horrible expression on his face which exactly portraying mine.
"I.. I... will buy you later." I managed to persuade her.
Ohh, God!! Why in front of him. I bit my lips feeling highly embarrassed of myself, the situation I was into.
"Promise?" She asked once again to confirm.
I nodded my head not finding proper words to convince her. Now I regret why I have a terrible gene running into my system and why it passed to my daughter.
In the corner of my eyes, I could see he was smirking looking all the way into me. I throw him one of my hard glares before storming out of his office.
Later, Miss. Jaden called me when she didn't find Sweety anywhere. I assured her that she was with me and hung the phone up. Poor woman, she nearly gets a heart attack.
---
Again one week passed but the throbbing headache is not leaving my side a bit and Sweety is not helping though as she was kept asking me to give her a baby brother and I found different excuses to escape from her, every day.
Speaking of her, I heard her voice from next door. He kept them under his gaze. It has become their regular routine to come over after their school and I couldn't control her, so I gave up. After all, she is under my care too.
Sometimes I noticed him adore Sweety while she was not looking at him. It slightly bothered my heart but I kept that thought at the back of my mind not wanting to add more fuel into my already throbbing head.
As usual, I entered his room to pick Sweety but there I saw Rachel talking with his brother. He raked his hair through his fingers before he said. "I don't know." From his statement, I could easily sense that he was tensed over a matter. Maybe they were discussing their family issues.
It's none of my concern.
And when I thought to ignore their conversation and took one step further to call Sweety, I heard her voice that sent a chill down into my spine. They are not discussing their family issues; it's all about my little family.
"Come on, just a DNA test. It won't change anything, and also you will get your answer. Look at her." She pointed towards Sweety who was playing happily with Karen.
"She has your aura and the same blue orbs. Any blind people could easily say she is yours." My heart started to thunder inside my chest.
How could it possible... My inner mind already warned me that Rachel had a suspicion about Sweety's dad. She seemed not convinced when I told her he was dead.
When I felt their glance towards my direction, I entered casually pretending like I'm just entering, and gave Rachel a side hug.
"Hey, Riya!!" She said nervously.
"Hi, Rachel! Long time to see. How's the baby doing?" I asked normally, ignoring my pounding heartbeat.
"They are twins." My heart clenched when I heard the word 'twins.' It seems someone squeezing my heart with their bare hands.
I covered my mouth when I felt nausea and ran towards the small door which I assume was a bathroom.
I threw up whatever content inside my stomach and emptied all. "Hey!" He rubbed my back and gave me water. I shoved his hand away and literally hurried my way out of the bathroom just to hold a firm grip on Sweety's hand.
"Sorry, I.. we're leaving," I said counting my every word carefully not enough to hurt her.
"Are you okay?" She asked concern is evident in her voice.
"Yeah! I'm fine." My voice shuttered.
"No, you are not. I will drop you." He offered like a gentleman. Giving him a final glare, I dragged Sweety along with me to the parking lot and helped her to get inside our car before drove the car to my apartment. My heart is hurting like a bitch.
"Mommy, are you okay?"
I nodded my head and focused on the road. 'Twins' the word still has an effect on me.
The next day, I lost all my patience and scolded Sweety when she asked me a baby and I even warned her to go with Miss. Jaden after school.
I feel very bad for losing my temper especially with her. I act very oddly these days. I put my face between my palms and thought for a moment. Maybe today I will take her to the park.
I handed the file to Juliet after checking thoroughly each and every page which needs to present in front of the client. At 3.30 we have a meeting with Mr. Jonnah, our important client.
