I stretched my arms and yawned. That was the best sleep that i ever got. I touched the other side of my bed to found an empty space beside me. Jason was not here. I glanced at the wall clock and saw that it's fifteen minutes before four in the afternoon. My gosh! I jumped out of the bed and run to my bathroom. Quick shower. Quick shower. I hope Mom took care of Alistaire, if not, my gosh, i am an irresponsible mother.
I put on my black thights and blue sleeveless waist line top. I didn't put my beauty rituals and decided to go down stairs. I walked inside the living room as i heard laughters coming from there.
"Ohh. Our sleeping beauty is awake now." Lucy teased. Alistaire run towards me and launched a big hug. I carried her and kissed her on the lips.
"How was my princess? I miss you." I continue to hugged her. I put her to the couch first and kissed Mom, Dad and Lucy.
"What time did Jason go?" I asked them as i put my little princess on my lap.
"Before two. He said that you need to text him if you're awake." Mom answered. I just nodded and continue to hugged Alistaire.
"Did you already ate?" I whispered on her ear. She nodded. I carried her and put her on the seat between Mom and Lucy.
"I'm just going to eat." They nodded and i made my way to the dining. I asked Evelyn for some fried rice and some chinese fried chicken. That's what i want. She nodded and prepared it. I remember that i need to text Jason so i grabbed my phone that was resting on the table.
Baby. I just woke up. Be home if you're done with your business. I love you. Missing you badly -- Baby princess ❤️
Evelyn placed my food on the table. It's gonna be my breakfast, lunch and snack meal. All in one if i must say. I started to eat my meal. No word can describe my three in one meal. Burp!
I walked back to the living room where the others were. I sat across the three of them as they were still talking about business. Of course Alistaire quickly sat beside me.
"Mommy. Can you call Daddy?" Alistaire asked me.
"Why? Daddy was with his friends. He's busy, what do you want?" I put her to my lap. I don't know with this girl. She always looked for Jason whenever his not around.
"Please Mommy. I have something to tell him." She planted kisses on my face and i can't ignore this action. I reached for my phone and quickly called Jason.
"Hello?" He answered after three rings. I heard Rich and Raymond talking but stopped later on.
"Alistaire wants to talk to you. Wait." I passed the phone to Alistaire and she smiled.
"Daddy. Can you go home now?... No..... Please, right now.. I don't like... Be home now.. Don't enter to Mommy's room.." Her last sentence made me laughed. She's really a replica of Althea. The thought of her Mom, made me feel so sad.
"No... I don't love you anymore Daddy." She handed my phone back to me and sat on the couch, crossed arms and pouting her lips.
"Hey, what did you said to her?" I snapped. Alistaire started to sob and put her head into my lap.
"I told her that i'm with other girls." He laughed. Ohh! His crazy, right?
"She's crying. Don't go home. We don't love you anymore. Right Alistaire?" I rubbed her back and carried her in my arms.
"Ohh. Sorry. I'll be home after an hour." He said softly over the phone. I heard Rich laughed and shouted ' ohh. Scared to Steph'. Silly men.
"I'm going to put her to bed. Just be home safe. I love you Baby." I tucked my phone to my shoulder as my ear listened to him. I carefully carried Alistaire.
"I love you. I'll be home now. Joyce called Rich. She's having back pains. See you." He hung up the phone. I got up carefully from the couch with Alistaire on my arms.
"Mom, i'm going to put this girl to bed. I'll go down later." I smiled at them.
"Go down if it's dinner time. Have some rest first." Dad simply said. They remained talking about business. I made my way to my room. I carefully put Alistaire on the bed. She's such a cutie. I just want to hug my daughter.
"Alistaire. What did you do to Mama's room last night?" I asked. She's not sleepy. She just wanted an attention from me, from us.
"We watched movies. They let me ate chocolates and i laid down between them." She cheekily said. I looked at her and cupped her cheeks.
"Honey, why are you so pretty? I want to bite this chubby cheeks." I kissed her cheeks as she giggled.
"Because my Mommy is pretty." She kissed my lips and hugged me. I love how she called me Mommy and kissed my lips. I'm feeling like a real Mom now, but i know i'm a Mom now. Alistaire made me feel that i'm right to be in this position.
"I love you honey. Mommy will love you forever and ever." Tears forming in my eyes. I felt it fell down into my cheeks. She looked at me and wiped my tears with her small hands. She's giving me the smile, that i really wanted to see.
"You'll be a good sister to this baby huhh? I want you to always follow Mommy and Daddy's rules." She nodded then hugged me again.
"The baby will be boy Mommy right?" She touched my tummy then pushed me to laid down the bed. She kissed my tummy and laid down beside me. I reached for the remote control and turn on the television. Cartoon channel will be Mommy and daughter bonding.
We remained lying in the bed as we were watching those cartoons. It's really good to have her in my arms. She's been the little energy ball that's running in my life. A hyper one, that captured my energy. I really love this little girl.
"How was my girls?" We looked towards the door and saw Jason. His on his knee length shorts and a plain blue shirt. He looked good today, not just today, but everyday. His holding paper bags on his hand as he carefully locked the door.
"Did you already ate?" I nodded. He touched my face but Alistaire hit his arm.
"Don't touch Mommy. You have other girls with you. You left Mommy here." She hugged me and moved me a little far from Jason. I laughed at her action. She's so protective.
"Daddy was just joking princess. He loves Mommy." I smiled at her. She looked at me, still confused with what i said. Jason put the paper bags on the floor.
"Alistaire. Daddy was just joking at you. I love you princess." Jason grabbed her body and hugged her. She remained looking at me but i smiled at her and that made her smiled too.
"Don't hurt Mommy. Please Daddy." Alistaire cupped his cheeks as Jason nodded. I'm so glad that these two people were here. I don't know how can i go on with my life without these two and my family.
"I bought you what you want Baby." He looked at me. What i want? Pomegranate! Yes! He handed me a bag filled with the pomegranate. He bought Alistaire a doll house and a doll. He bought stuffs for christmas and a lot of goods to stuff my little kitchen.
"Thanks Baby." I peck a kiss on his lips. First kiss for today. Alistaire was lying on the bed, she's sleepy now. She's trying to open her eyes, but drifted to her sleep soon.
"Let's go down while she's sleeping. I asked Lea to watch her here. Come on." I pulled him out of my room. Jason made his way to the living room. I first went to kitchen and asked Evelyn to cut the pomegranate. I also asked Lea to watched Alistaire at my room and she agreed on that. Evelyn handed me the plate filled with pomegranate as i sat on the couch beside my man.
"What's that Stephanie?" Lucy looked at the food in my hand with the disgusting look in her eyes.
"Pomegranate Mom. Since last night, she's craving for that. I searched for that fruit on the internet and looked where can i get that." Jason explained. I looked at him as i continue to eat the fruit gracefully.
"Where did you bought that?" Mom asked. Dad shook his head then laughed.
"Your Mom was like that also when she's pregnant to you. She's asking for a pomelo in the middle of the night." Dad continue to laughed. Well, this pregnancy will test Jason's patience.
"You better get ready son." Dad warned. We all laughed and i'm still enjoying this fruit. So sweet and the juice tasted so good.
"Mom, you'll be here on christmas huh?" I looked towrds Lucy. She nodded then smiled.
"Eve! Who's cooking? I don't like the smell." I shouted then frowned. Smell of that sautèd thing, really not a good smell for me. The room where the maids were cooking it has an exhaust going outside but the smell still reached here.
"Evelyn, kindly stop that first. This grumpy pregnant wasn't happy with the smell." Mom shouted as they laughed. The plate of pomegranate that was on my lap was now empty.
"You ate everything?" Jason smirked beside me. I looked at him and nodded. I don't know but i love the fruit. How it taste like, too sweet.
"Mom.. Dad, before i forgot, we'll be leaving after new year." I placed the plate on the center table. I took my vitamins as Jason handed it to me.
"Where are you going?" Dad asked as he sipped his coffee.
"Australia? I don't know. I just want to travel before this baby bump get obvious." I looked towards them. Jason draped his arms on my shoulder as my hand remained on his thigh.
"I want to go with you." Lucy smiled. I want that too. I want some family time with them.
"We're going with you. Let's use the private plane." Mom excitedly answered. My friends can come with us if we'll be using the private plane. It's gonna be a good vacation.
"Alright. Let's just finish the christmas, new year and our house blessing then vacation time." I squealed.
We remained sitting at the living room. We ate dinner peacefully. Sierra we'll be moving out after new year. She'll be going with us too, to Australia. We're still ignoring each other. For that dinner, they asked us if we'll be moving out too, but i told them, No. I'm ready to move out with Jason, but i still have school. I need to finish those things first. I still have to review modules from the company. Our company and Jason's company will be merging next year by January. We really have to deal with everything.
"Mommy, i'm tired." Alistaire hugged me. She looked sleepy now. We've been wrapping gifts since seven and it's already pass eleven. We're almost done. Just three more things that need to be wrapped.
"You want to sleep now?" She shook her head and sat on the couch beside Jason. I finished the last few gifts quickly. I carefully got up from the floor but Jason helped me.
"Thanks." I stretched and yawned at the same time. I walked towards the intercom and asked Evelyn if they can get all the gifts here at my room. She quickly made it here with the two other maids and they quickly get all the gifts out of here. I thanked them for that and they locked the door as they stepped out. Tomorrow will be christmas eve and it's gonna be a good day.
"Princess sleeping time now. Enough with the Ipad." I stole the Ipad from her hand and placed it on the bedside table. I carried her in my arms but Jason get her from me. He tucked Alistaire under her covers. He remained sitting beside Alistaire. His patting Alistaire's legs and humming some songs on her ears. Too sweet, really a Daddy act. I grabbed my phone and captured this moment of them. I was still standing beside the bed, staring at them. I decided to share the photo at my account.
His really a Daddy now. Can't wait if he do this things to our second baby. Goodnight Sweeties! ❤️
Nobody knew that i'm pregnant now. Only my family, my close friends and my doctor knew about it. I should be proud about this so i posted that.
"Stop staring at us. You sleep now." Jason pulled me to bed.
"It's good to see you, so attached to Alistaire." I laid on the bed as i kissed Alistaire's forehead.
"She's our daughter and i'll be like that too to this kiddo." He touched my tummy then kissed the top of my head.
"You should be. We should treat them fair." I cupped his cheeks and looked at his eyes.
"Of course. So now, close your eyes and rest." I shook my head. I just want to talk to him.
"Don't tell me you want to.." He wiggled his brows then giggled.
"Silly! As much as i wanted to, but my body was still sore because of you." I peck a kiss on his lips and wrapped his legs by my legs.
"Still sore? Sorry for last night. I love you." He kissed the top of my head for a matter of seconds then rubbed his nose onto me.
"A little but not too sore." I yawned and hugged him. Gonna be another night with my three babies: Jason, Alistaire and this kiddo in my tummy.
"Let's sleep now." I looked at him, waiting for his answer. His looking at me, contentment, is what i saw from his eyes. He smiled, the best thing to end the day.
"Night. I love you." He whispered. Tears forming in his eyes. I looked at him, a little confused. His crying, but why?
"Why are you crying? Ohhh.. You mad that i will sleep now? I'm sorry. Sorry baby." I hugged him but he shook his head.
"Just sleep and have some rest. I love you so much baby." He kissed me deeply and smiled between our kiss.
"I'll sleep if you tell me, why are you crying?" I wrapped my arms around his chest and try to feel the beat of his heart.
"I'm just happy. Having you is really what i want. Having these two babies added to my happiness. This is my first christmas, that i'm a Daddy. First christmas with you. Just that thought." He shrugged and kissed the side of my head.
"Too sweet my love. I love you no matter what. I'll never get tired of saying that. So now, let's sleep." I forced his eyes to close by putting my hands over his eyes. I peck a kiss on his lips and laid my head on his chest as i remained looking at him as his eyes closed.
His too handsome, even if his just sleeping. His lips that was so kissable. His pointed nose that i really wanted to kiss. His cheeks that i want to pinch. I hope our baby gets his eyes, eyes that can capture every girls in the town.
Jason was my childhood friend. Lucy always had him with her in every party that she attented. We were classmates on our grade school. He always bullied me. I don't know why he always bullied me.
When we were in high school, he became a gentleman and became kind. He belonged to my circle of friends. His one of the A listers in our batch. Lucy was really proud of her because his not a stubborn and his too focus with his studies unlike the other boys. Evo courted me and i think that's the reason why Jason didn't go along with us anymore. He changed his friends, but still he bonded with Rich and Raymond. His not going with the gang if Evo and I were there, i noticed that. Time flew by, Evo and i got together. The next day that Evo and i got together, i heard that Jason has a girlfriend. He always changed his girlfriend, that's what i heard.
I remembered that day, i passed on the locker room. I heard some familiar voices that's why i stopped walking. I heard Rich and Raymond talking to each other. Their conversation was all about me and Jason. Rich told to Raymond that Jason was going through hell and always changing his girlfriend. I was unsure of the other things that they've talked about, but all i can remember is, he likes me. Jason likes me, that idea plastered on my mind.
That time, i was on the stage of confusion. I like Jason but i love Evo. I don't know. I continued the relationship with Evo. Nothing too special, it failed. My first relationship failed.
Jason came. My world turned upside down. He helped me to build up my confidence again. He courted me and showed me the true meaning of love. Love that i thought that wasn't going to came to me. The kisses, hugs and touches, it changes everything.
We got engaged. I was so inlove with him. Everyday, my love for him was getting deeper. I gave up my everything to him and that caused us to have a little kiddo on my tummy. We have Alistaire and that added to complete our lives.
I was really contented with my life now. His been the rock, whenever i'm down. His been my strength, whenever i'm weak. His been my everything and that's a fact. This ring that i have on my finger, it's a thing that symbolizes that i'll be Mrs. Red soon. But this man, lying down beside me, symbolizes a true love. Nothing less. Nothing more. I love him.
