"What a lovely morning!" One of the wooden windows Belle opens, before she opens the other one, letting the sun enter the house. "Such a lovely day".

The twins still in bed, Doctor Craig gently reached downstairs with his sleepy baggy eyes and went to the kitchen.

He sees Belle standing in front of the open fridge. He gently pushes her away as he pulls a bottle of milk and drains it.

He then takes a seat on the counter chair. Yawning. "Oh, you're always so grumpy before your morning coffee". said Belle.

"I wouldn't want my favorite doctor to choke". She walked to the sink then turned to him. "So, how's last night?"

He snorted. "I called her last night, and she didn't answer my calls nor did she reply to my text. I think we accidently broke our engagement because of her misunderstanding".

"Nice try. Drink this you feel better after this". Belle pushed a hot cup of herb drink to him. "It helps flush your blood circulation, spare the toxin. I don't know what to say that was but is good for your health. It also help for the tension mood like you".

He nodded, "I know what you mean. I'm a doctor. Thanks". He drinks the herb and suddenly feels cleansed all over his body. He said, "Tea, lemonade, mint and honey. Good combination".

"Better?" She asks Doctor Craig to take another drink again. "You were about to lose your mind because of that woman".

"You think so? How I wish something would liven up this already tedious day". He looked up at her then smiled. "Thanks for trying, Belle".

She sighs, "She will understand that".

"Amy wasn't a person who could understand what happened around her. I don't know why I am wasting my whole life for her".

"Because you chose her, brother the same way my husband chose me to be his life partner".

Belle walks to the fridge, she reaches the maple syrup then walks back to the counter.

"Correct me if I was wrong about you, you are not obsessed with this woman am I right?" Doctor Craig shakes his head no. "So, we both know who caused the problem. She is. Can I kill her?"

Doctor Craig choked, "If you wish I let you". He leans on the chair. They hear footsteps walking above their head. He looked up at the ceiling. "Did you hear that last night".

"Of course". Belle is waiting for someone to stand at the kitchen frame. The footsteps then ran downstairs to the kitchen. Mia stood there rubbing both of her eyes. "Morning".

The little girl smiled, "Morning, mom. Morning, Uncle Craig". She took a seat beside him. Doctor Craig studied her cute pajamas. "I'm hungry. What's for breakfast?"

"Is your brother up yet?" ask Belle. Mia shakes no. "What did you two do inside your room last night? I told you to go to sleep didn't I".

"We wrestled in bed. I won that fight". Doctor Craig turns to Belle. "He will try to cheat and I won't let him win".

Doctor Craig nods for himself. Belle rolled her eyes. "Of course you do. You will never defeat your brother". Mia reaches for the pancake and eats it.

"I hope she understands what you are trying to do". as she spoke to him back again.

"I hope so. I barely touched her, if I tried she pushed me. Just a light kiss on her cheek was all I could do for her. She may be a perfect woman which every man desires to have, but she is built differently. I couldn't take it anymore if she starts to get jealous about something".

Gently his forehead touches the table. Close his eyes, taking a quick nap for a bit. This is all Amy's fault because he couldn't have enough sleep last night just thinking about her.
