Married to Victor Stephen (BOOK 2)

Chapter Eleven

*I'm thinking of whose house to come spend this Christmas*

Suzy

I got home a bit late. I had called Victor so I wasn't deeply worried. The moment I stepped into the living room, I couldn't help smiling at what I saw.

"Merry Christmas!" Both Emmanuella and Emmanuel screamed at the top of their voices. They decided to start their Christmas already there was still a day left. They were both in their Christmas caps, gloves, and the new shoes Victor bought for them.

I was still staring at the surprise before me and how they got to know where I hid the shoes and everything. I could hear Victor laughing. His rich voice reaching me. He didn't look sober and he wasn't looking so happy. But he looked okay.

He was still laughing. "I actually thought they were only laying the bed, and arranging both Mom and Dad's room alone. I never knew they had their mission," he said.

I couldn't help but chuckled as I dropped my bag and took a seat on the single couch next to Victor. I was so tired, but I felt relaxed watching the drama played by my little ones. "You should remove those things before you get it dirty." I said to them, hoping they do as I say.

"No mommy, let's start wearing it today," Emmanuella said, flashing her white teeth at me.

"Yes mommy," Emmanuel didn't wait to add his own point of view.  "We will show everyone at the church tomorrow. And Daddy Jesus will be very happy with us."

I couldn't stop the giggle.

Daddy Jesus

I could see Daddy Jesus smiling at them as well. "Mommy, is Aunty Love and brother David coming?" Emmanuella asked. I nodded, and the two squealed happily. "Yeey!!"

"Is brother George, Gabriel, and Gideon coming too?" Is like they've both rehearsed together. I replied with a nod, but I wasn't sure Victoria would be able to make it with her children this year.

"Mommy what about Abbie and little Tommy?" They both asked about Yomi's children. I replied with a nod, and they screamed again. Immediately, Emmanuella shouted. "Merry Christmas!"

"And Happy, happy, new year!" Emmanuel screamed too. I couldn't help laughing. Where did they throw the 'advance' ?

They started running around the house, while I took the chance to turn to the man beside me. His full concentration was on his phone. "You've eaten?" I asked him in a very low voice.

"Yea," he replied without looking at me.

"Bed time!"  I got up and put off the television. None of them was even watching the cartoon that was making a hell of noise. I took them to their rooms.and changed them into their pyjamas. I couldn't take back the caps and the shoes, but I succeeded to get it from them, putting it in one corner where they could see it.

Immediately I left them alone, Victor and I resumed back to our room. He was silent. He stayed quiet, not saying a single word. But I could see him watching me through the mirror, where I stood naked checking my flat tummy. He wanted to talk, but once he opened his mouth, he closed it back. I slipped into our bathroom to take a shower and after some minutes, I stepped out with my towel wrapped around me.
