Chapter 12

After the event, every guest slowly took their exit. Yelena was happily squealing as the little girl and rushed towards her, dipping their tiny faces on her gown. The pink-haired woman surely had a smile on her face as serotonin rise. Hillary couldn't help but feel so drawned onto them. Maison and Nathalie seemed cautious, each time the little ones dart her way, She sees the two women gradually taking their attention away. It bothered Hillary a bit. Harvey was staying around them, it almost looked like she was a close relative in the Vasilia family now than her.

She looked around the almost empty venue. It was nine in the evening after all, everyone would be leaving to go back home and take their rests. There was no man around their area, Hillary couldn't help but think what the Nefetari's husband looks like.

Hillary assumed.

"You've been looking at them since Nefetari got here." Archibald's voice had a tinge of jealousy in it. Hillary shook her head and slightly laughed as she holds onto the man's shoulder.

"I just...she seemed like a new person now." Hillary mumbled before softly looking their way. Somehow her heart ached when the little boy's balloon popped. Everyone gasped and he looked so tiny as he looked around before rushing to Nefetari.

"It's okay, sweet boy." Nefetari softly laughed as she crouched down, cupping the boy's chubby cheeks, giving the sweet boy some love and soft assurance. Hillary's heart swelled at the sight of Nefetari being such a good mother. She could feel her throat tighten up remembering their dreams back then of being a family. Of building a lovely family and now they are fully separated from one another. Away from that dream.

Archibald sighed before looking where Hillary was staring. "She's a parent now, Hillary." Archie gave her a wake up call. Indeed, Nefetari is now a Mom with not just one but two babies. The baby girl seemed to be more active and strong willed than the soft baby boy with no horns up his head.

Nefetari's baby girl was a short haired baby, with chubby cheeks and quite a exactly a talkative one. Hillary couldn't help but be entertained as to how the little one would be so talkative but be so tiny. The baby boy, he was tiny and oh so shy of a baby than her sister. Hillary wouldn't tell if they were twins or not because clearly,

"I know." Hillary said as she tightened her grip on Archibald's arm. She seemed suddenly upset with what Archibald just said to her. As if she didn't need to be reminded about what Nefetari was now.

Archibald could only hum as he gestures for us to move. "Let's go?'

Hillary smiled at the suggestion before she gives a nod on her head. 'Let's go."

Nefetari's eyes took a quick glance to see Hilary slowly taking her leave from the venue. It was only right if Hillary did so because clearly it was night time. Nefetari had furrowed her brows seeing that Archibald was quite possessive all over. His hand on his backand the other was on Hillary's waist. Nefetari could only raise her brows seeing the man suddenly and secretly flip off.

"Petty." Nefetari mumbled,nobody was able to see the childish stunned he just pulled. She wasn't even trying to do anything but she is clearly making someone feel so threatened. To Nefetari, it was fun to torment some people who tormented her back then. It was a matter of payback.

Everyone was busy taking a picture, it was onlly a few people left in the venue and the other cleaning staff were now cleaning. They took cute a lot of selfies and groupfies. They were a very supportive pile all together. Nefetari could only feel how she had such a place in these persons' hearts.

They were the only ones she trrusted the most. So, she entrusted them in telling them they were gooing to be Aunties because she was pregnant, they knew it was because of the IVF. They were the biggest secret hiders, they clearly had never told anything about Nefetari's disappearance, how she went overseas to take care of a baby all alone in a foreign country. She was blessed with good friends and she couldn't ask more even tho Nefetari was still there, trauma and depression with getting pregnant and giving birth in Greece while her friends were back in her birth country.
