After The I Do's (Complete)

Epilogue

Eight Years Later

"Timilein will you stop that? If I come there ehhh, I will squeeze your ears" I shouted to my son who was jumping on the couch. He froze when I threatened to squeeze his ear

"Sorry Mama" he replied with a guilty smile. I smiled and shook my head, as I continued to type on my laptop.

"Mama can I watch Moana?" Chinwendu asked

"Have you finished your homework?" I asked, looking up from my laptop

"Yes. I have. I even read my comprehension and answered the questions" she replied proudly

"Wow. That is beautiful" I smiled then turned to my son "Timi have you done your homework?"

"Yes Mama. I did it when Nwendu was doing hers" he replied, then giving me his cute face so that I would let them watch Moana. Timilein was older than Chinwendu. He was eight while she was five. Kaz and I argued over Nwendu's name until he finally agreed. I told him that I needed one of my children to have an Igbo name so we settled on that.

I always have my way

"That's good. Let's watch Moana then. But don't tell your dad" I whispered the last part and they giggled

"I promise not to tell Daddy" Nwendu spoke and I nodded. I quickly put on the cartoon on my laptop, placing it on the table and they sat on the couch, each of them on each side of my body, snuggling into me. It was late and they were supposed to be sleeping, but it was a Friday, meaning they get to sleep in tomorrow and I couldn't say no to them. Kaz was stricter with them, but sometimes it was impossible to say no to them.

"Why are you guys still awake?" Kaz asked, his voice startling us. I quickly paused the movie and smiled at him.

Seems like he's done with the business call

"We're watching Moana. Come join us" I replied as I took him in. He was in black joggers and shirtless. He smirked at me when he caught me drooling and I rolled my eyes

Proud fellow

I expected him to tell them to go to bed, but he came and sat beside me, lifting Nwendu, placing her on his laps, then putting his hand at my back. Timi crawled into my laps and I played the movie, snuggling into Kaz. After a while, the kids were asleep. Kaz helped me tuck them in. I entered the kitchen, shocked to see everything was in place because the new maid was frustrating me. She was lazy and barely remembered anything. Constance and Nikky got married after a few years, I planned both their weddings for free, as a thank you for their help in my house. I switched off the lights and headed upstairs to our room. Kaz was already there, sprawled on the bed, looking at the ceiling

"What are you thinking about?" I asked as I sat on the edge of the bed. He patted his chest lightly and I crawled into bed and lay on his chest

"How happy I am" he replied

I smiled and nodded in agreement "I'm happy too"

"I'm glad" he wrapped his hand around me and pulled me on top of him, his two hands locked at my back

"Kaz let's go shower" I tried to stand up but he held me. Then he put my leg on either side of his body and sat up.

His way of telling me I weigh nothing.

He smiled at me and kissed me. I put my arms around his neck and kisses back, pulling him into me. He stood up and walked towards the bathroom, not breaking the kiss. When we entered, he placed me on the ground carefully and pulled away

"We're spending one hour in that bathroom" he stated

I laughed and nodded. I knew that Kaz loved shower sex so I didn't object. I secretly love it too but I won't tell him that.

It's difficult going to work early already. If he ever finds out, I might not go to work anymore.

We lay in bed, in each other's arms, my back pressed against his front.

"Are they guys still coming tomorrow?" Kaz asked

"Yes. With their families" I replied

Tee and Stan were married, Ogoo left his girlfriend because they were not working out but he married a model, who by the way, I believe is too beautiful for him, Jude and Doyin got married. Although they had a lot of fights and we refused to pick sides with any of them during their fights (and let me tell you, it was because Doyin would gist me and sitting on the fence was becoming harder by the day), they worked through it. And finally, Bobby shocked us all and got married. He married a secondary school teacher who I believe is too good for him.

But who am I to judge.

I hugged Kaz closer and sighed in content.

"Goodnight baby" I yawned

"Goodnight Ife" he replied sleepily

This is my home.
