Meant to Be

Chapter 9

Months has passed and I think I'm ready for the twins to came out in this beautiful world. I already have a job as an assistant in a hotel in Tropea, in which Karlos works. Karlos also helped me in arranging my apartment by accompanying me in buying some furnitures, including cribs, toys, baby bottles and etc., assembling them and painting the room for my twins. During these times, Karlos and I both knew each other than anyone else. Karlos knew about Ezio and Lila, and I knew that he is gay and have a boyfriend working in Florence. This is also why we became bestfriends from then on.

"Babycakes, I'm do-- Why in the hell you're still gawking your cabinet? Dress now, momma if you want to know the gender of your kids." Karlos said exasperatedly.

"I'm nervous, Karlos but at the same time excited. Plus, I don't know what to wear."  I whined and sat on my bed, giving up.

He sighed and went to my cabinet, picking a long blue summer dress. "Wear this, Dan. It matches your eyes. Don't be nervous, you know I'll be right there next to you when the doctor probe your tummy. Besides, I'm planning on treating you on this restaurant that has a nice view of the beach." 

"Aww. Thanks, baby. I just wished you're my husband. You keep on spoiling me." I whined again.

This is also the reason why I love Karlos. He spoils me too much and he understands me, on every whine and tantrum I made.

"I'm your husband! Your gay husband. Now, stand up and put these on. The sun is shining and still waiting for you!"

"Buongiorno,  Dan and Karlos. Looks like you're excited to know the gender of you twins" Doctor Alexia exclaimed. Karlos also helped me finding the best doctor in town. I really owe him a lot!"

"Yes, Doc. She's so excited that I needed to drag her out of her bed." Karlos said sarcastically. He smirked at me and I stuck my tongue, directing at him.

Doctor Alexia squirted some gel on my belly and scanned my it using a probing thingy. Although I already have a picture, they never fail to put a smile on my face whenever I look at them. My little angels will grow up just like their mother. I felt a tear slide down my face and of course, Karlos wiped it and smiled down at me.

"It looks like the this one too is shy to look at us. Can't tell if it's a boy or girl but I already knew the other one, Dan. Do you guys really want to know the gender?" 

"Yes, Doc." I assured.

"Well congratulations because you will be having a boy."  

After that appointment, Karlos brought me to a restaurant he promised earlier. This restaurant just sits near the shore of Tropea so the owner, like every one else here, made glass as its walls. I noticed that the seats near them are almost occupied but according to my Karlos, the owner already made a reservation for us.

We already sat on our seats and probe him.

"So, who's the owner. I bet he's hot" I giggled.

"Oh. I'm seeing this guy for a while and of course, he's scorching hot and fucking good on bed" He whispered.

I laughed for the whole lunch with Karlos' jokes and strories until my stomach hurts. I just wished to be like this for the rest of my life with my children. During the my marriage with Ezio, I remembered this exact wish when we got married. I really thought Ezio is different from others but I'm so wrong that he broke my heart millions of times. Though, I thought about Ezio for some time. I bet he's with Lila right now, enjoying their lives at his mansion and happy now that I'm gone.

But, I always wonder if Ezio is searching for me. . . . .
