L.Q High [Book 2]

Epilogue

"Mommy!" I came rushing to my five-year-old.

"Why? Why is my baby crying, mmm?" I carried Ruston in my arms, trying to lessen his cry.

"Love, help!" Sybil came rushing unto me holding our three-year-old daughter in his arms, and she's also crying.

I baby-talked both Ruston and Nariz until their cries lessened and subsided.

We are here at the beach where the port of L.Q High and now... connected with another school. M.U High. I didn't know Dean Quintin built M.U High for his daughter.

"Are you sure we're doing the medical mission for M.U High?" I questioned.

"I already have shifts at the hospital, and I have many night shifts. Now you're saying about a medical mission?" Sybil answered.

"Yeah. Come to think about it, and if we keep working at the hospital now, we have shifted 48 hours long or more. If we do the medical mission for three months, we could get fewer shifts. Besides, I don't want Ruston and Nariz to always stay by your parent's house or by a nanny." I explained as I gently placed Ruston in our bed. Ruston Rafael R. Willows, I chose our son's name, and I took it at Brendan and Kloiro's names.

"Well, you have a point. We could also alternate our duty schedules." I took Nariz into Sybil's arms and placed Nariz gently at Ruston's side. I've put pillow barricades around them so they won't fall. Nariz Oriel R. Willows, her name came from Sybil.

We took a family villa here at the beach. It is supposed to be the first time Ruston and Nariz would be in the sea.

The next morning.

"Love, I'll look around and see if there are any injured students. I'll be right back," he exclaimed and kissed my forehead.

Everything felt peaceful, and the breeze felt nice, so I took Ruston and Nariz to the beach.

"Mommy, water!" Nariz was giggling while pointing at the sea.

"Mommy, can we go swim?" The energetic Ruston asks, looking excited.

"Of course, but only for a short while, okay? Come on, let's change you in to your swimsuits."

Then I changed their clothes and mine too. I bathed with them in the sea, and of course, I was carrying both of them as we went a little further from the coast.

Both of them giggled and laughed. It makes me feel happy seeing my children like this, and I hope Sybil could see his daughter and son smile in times like this too.

We finished about noon, and Sybil made me worried. He was gone for the whole morning; he only left for about 1-2 hours.

I changed Nariz and Ruston and went to look for their father. It took us a few minutes when I finally found him.

"Love!" I called for him, both with Nariz and Ruston.

"Ohh, love?" Sybil looked at me 'what are you doing here?' Look.

"Where did you go?! You almost made me worried!" I exclaimed, but I realized teenagers were looking at us.

"Ohh, I see. You can if you want," I said. Sybil can help if he wants.

I looked at the girl with purple hair—who sprained her ankle. "Does it still hurt?" I asked.

"Just a little," she answered. My gaze went to the boy who looked at my husband like a hawk. He looks familiar, and I feel like I know this boy. I smiled. He's Quintin, the toddler who Senior Kai and Senior Astra's son. It's good to see him as his father. We would come and play with him since we visited L.Q High a little after Senior Astra disappeared. It must have been hard for him.

"By the way, children, I'm Lille Rune-Willows, and this man is my husband, Sybil Willows. You are probably at your break, so we'll leave you to it. Bye, ~ hope to see you again." I exclaimed lastly.

We went on our way after that.

"Daddy, we went swimming!" Ruston told his father.

Do fairytales always have to end with happily ever after?

"Daddy, I was flying and floating in water! I feel like a superhero, daddy!" Ruston excitingly exclaimed.

And does every beginning always has to be Once upon a time?

"Daddy!" Nariz broke her held unto me and wanted to be carried by her father.

It may or may not, but...

Once upon a time I met a man, I fell in love and as well as he. I went through puzzles and got married, and it isn't always easy.

"Love, thank you for giving me this family," Sybil whispered in my ears and kissed my forehead. I took Ruston's other hand while Sybil had the other one and carried Nariz.

Our fairytale didn't start with 'Once upon a time.' But...

I'll take our happily ever after.
