Impenetrable Annulment | a.a

14.

We were walking towards the entrance. Simon's hand was on my lower back.

I had quickly texted my mum, telling her we were on our way home.

"I hate to pull you away so early." I said to him.

"Are you kidding?" He chuckled lightly.

I laughed softly, putting my phone back into my clutch.

"Simon!" A voice shouted.

I jumped slightly but a small smile soon made its way onto my face.

The female lunged herself into Simon's arms, knocking him back a little.

I laughed while a cough caught my attention.

I turned to find Simon's other sister, Victoria.

"Well if it isn't little Delly." She grinned.

"Vic!" I grinned back, running towards her and engulfing her into a hug.

"I've missed you so much Elle." She sighed.

"Alright Victoria, I want to see her too." Alexandra whined.

I laughed as her arms instantly came around me.

"You're smothering my wife, girls." Simon basically growled, pulling me towards him.

"Where the hell have you been?!" Victoria scolded me, ignoring Simon.

"That's a question for your brother." I smirked, "Anyways, I hate to cut this short but I was actually headed home."

A frown instantly appeared on their faces.

"We've not seen you in years, Adele." Victoria pouted.

"I'm really sorry," I sighed, "But, hey. I'm coming round to your mum's tomorrow, come over and we can talk?" I suggested.

"Sounds perfect." Alexandra sounded.

"But mummy the sun's not awake yet." Angelo yawned, hiding his face in my neck.

"Maybe not, but it will be very soon." I laughed.

"Why does daddy's mummy get up so early? Isn't she sleepy?" He questioned, playing with my hair.

"She must be very sleepy. But I'm sure she's too excited to see you." I grinned, placing him in his car seat.

"Is it a very long time to get there?" He asked, still with sleepy eyes.

"Not too long." Simon said from behind me.

I turned to see him, "Liar." I muttered with a smirk, "Get comfy, baby."

As we pulled up outside Simon's parent's place, I noticed multiple cars in the driveway.

"Well looks like everyone's here." I sighed, looking back at Angelo.

"We can take our time. There's no rush." Simon said, taking my hand.

"I'm just worried about him being over-whelmed." I frowned.

"He'll be fine." Simon reassured me.

I sighed before nodding.

"Angelo, baby." I cooed, combing my fingers through his hair, "We're here."

His little eyes fluttered open as he reached out towards me.

I smiled before taking him into my arms and walking towards the door.

"You excited, mister?" Simon asked as we waited for the door to open.

I felt his little shoulders shrug against my chest while his head stayed hidden in the crook of my neck.

"You're here!" I heard Rosemary say. As I looked up at her, she was wearing a grin.

"He's shy?" She questioned.

I merely nodded as she stepped aside, allowing us in.

"Everyone's in the living room." She informed us, guiding us through the house.

As we stepped into the room, a couple gasps were heard along with 'awes'.

"Don't be shy, honey." I whispered to Angelo.

His head slightly lifted, his eyes examining his surroundings.

"He's your twin." Rosemary said with emotion.

"He's gorgeous." Andrew stated.

"I can't believe you never told us. " Alexandra said with sad eyes.

I frowned instantly.

"Are you okay staying with daddy for a while, angel?" I whispered, kissing his cheek.

He was hesitant but soon nodded, "Be really fast."

I passed him to Simon before walking to the kitchen, the girls following behind.

"What's going on, Adele?" Victoria sighed.

"Me and Simon are divorced." I finally blurted.
