Meant To Be

Chapter 13

Shawn

Last night was so stressful, the babies woke up every other hour crying either for food, or diaper change. Most of the time Jamal was the one to wake up and take care of them, and I pretended like I didn't hear them.

Currently Jamal is in their room, and I'm laying down but I'm going to go check on them. I got of bed and went in the twins room. Jamal was sitting down singing to Ariel, I noticed it was her cause of the pink blankets they gave at the hospital. I stayed from a distance looking at them, Jamal voice was just so beautiful, I was shocked that Jamal could really sing.

"Silent night, holy night
All is calm, all is bright
Round yon virgin, mother and child
Holy infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace" Jamal kissed Ariel then set her down in her crib.

Tears started to build in my eyes, just looking at how he took care of the kids and his voice, everything was just so beautiful.

"I love you Ariel, and I love you Aden" he kissed them both then turned off the lamp.

He came out then bump into me and was about to scream but I held him close to me and he relaxed.

"We're you watching us?"

"Yes, it was the most beautiful thing I have ever witnessed in my life."

"Oh my gosh" he laughed then started to walk in the room.

We got in the room and Jamal went to the bed and got in, I followed him and we both just laid there.

"Jamal?"

"Yes Shawn"

"You should be an artist, your voice is just so beautiful and I truly believe you are gifted, I always knew you liked chorus but I never really heard you sing and when I heard you singing it was amazing."

He started to laugh, then got serious.

"Thank you baby, but stop it you know I can't sing."

"Have you heard your voice? It's beautiful you sound like an angel, you made Ariel go to sleep in less than 2 minutes, you made me cry in less than 30 seconds of hearing your voice, Jamal baby your gifted."

I heard him sniff then he kissed me.

"Thank you Shawn but now it's a time to rest."

" Fine we'll talk later, goodnight baby" I leaned over and kissed him, this kiss was soft, so delicate, and so precious just like him.

"I love you" Jamal whispered.

"I love you more" I said back and gave him a small kiss again then we went to sleep.

-

"Alright bye baby I'll see you three later." I kissed Ariel and Aden, on the forehead, then I went to Jamal and kissed him on the lips.

"Bye Shawn."

I left the condo and went to the parking lot. I got in Jamal's car then started to drive to the mall. I got to the mall and went inside the jewelry store with my receipts.

"Hi, welcome to Fancy Diamonds how may I help you?"

" Hi I'm here to pick up my necklace that I had engrave."

"OK do you have the receipt and name?" The young lady said.

"Yes here" I handed her the receipts and she went in the back got box.

"OK this is the necklace and I see here it's already paid for so just open it up to make sure everything is perfect."

I opened it up and looked at the engraving S&J 4life.
