Nathan White

"Daddy look! that's Anna!" Alya said pointing on the stage, and I see Anna has stand with her ballerina group.

"Yes! Look at her.. so do you want to join the ballet class? after the last treatment next week?" I asked her and hug her tightly on my lap.

"I'm not really good in ballet daddy but I wanna get a painting class.. Can I?" she smile sweetly.

"Yes... anything for you baby." I kiss the back of her head and we just sit together looking at Anna performance. I see Ariella start recording her performance.

I see Anna dancing gracefully and beautifully, in the moment she looked at us, she smile widely and I waves my hand to her. That's my daughter!

"Oh my God... she's not a baby anymore Nathan.. " Ariella said while she still holding the camera.

"She always be my baby Ella..." she smile at me.

After the performances, we waiting near the backstage and while they came up, Anna run through me. I catch her and lift her up.

"You're did great my ballerina baby." I kiss her.

"Thank you daddy!" she giggles. I let her stand on her feet and hold her beside me.

"Nath... I need to get back to university.. I-"

"Hey... what I told you about being a parents? we are team don't we? I get a day off today.. just get done with university things and came home for me and them alright?" I said cupped her face. She always worried while she have to lecture her students but I know this is her passion being a lecturer, I know she's really enjoy teaching and learning and I just want to let her be happy, that's all the matter for me.

"You know.. You makes me love you more and more day by day.." she smile.

"That's one of my intentions." I chuckled. She came and give me a kiss and she kiss Anna and Alya too.

"Mommy will come back in the afternoon okay?" they nodded and she came and kiss me again.

"I love you.."

"I love you too." I waved her goodbye and hold the kids to the car park.

I get Alya on the car seat in the back and Anna in the passenger seat beside me. I order Darren to take Ariella to the university. I could see the sky start glooming, like it's gonna be rain today.

I get my phone and text her.

Take care My Ella, It's gonna be rain today, Darren will waiting you there. I'll be waiting at home. 😘

I smile and make sure Anna and Alya wearing their seatbelt. I drove my car back to the mansion.

"Daddy... can I swim today?" Alya asked me while we walk in the mansion.

"It's gonna be rain soon honey.."

"Daddy... I want swim too." Anna said.

"Please daddy, just for awhile, I promise not take too long? Please?" and she just pleading with her puppy eyes. I smile and finally nodded agreed with their request.

"Alright... come on you both get chance the swimsuit with Jane, Daddy will prepared the big duck then."

I said and they get upstairs happily while I take the big duck and let it floating on the pool. I could hear their sound coming closer to the pool. I get in the pool and I could see they came happily.

"Daddy!" Anna said and jump on the pool and also with Alya. They came and swiming through me while I start move away so they have to swim more far to reach me.

"I got you!" Alya circling my neck from behind while Anna get closer in front of me.

"I got you too daddy!" I smile and hug them. We just giggling together and I lift Alya to sit on the big duck. They burst into laugh and when I see it, all I want just keep their smile like this, forever and always.

After we get swiming together and I take them to bath and get her dressed.

"Done" I said while I get the dress on Alya.

"Get down stairs and have your lunch before napping alright? Daddy will catch up after running for bath, okay?"

"Okay!" they said and walk out from the room. I sighed happily, I could said I'm a bit tired but spending time with them gave me much pleasure that I never felt before.

We just had lunch together then I let them laid down on the bed for nap time. I let her laying down beside me while I start with the little story to take them to sleep. Being a father will take you to the things that never you did before like learning about many fairytales to be told for your daughter as the story before they get sleep. I see the rain start falling and they just get sleep soundly. I get out from bed and get the comforter properly covered them so they won't catch the cold.

I see the outside that rain start falling heavily and I wanna text Ariella but before I could reach the phone on the nightstand, I could hear the thunder start roaring, this gonna be a heavy rain with thunderstorm.

"Daddy..." I heard and see Anna has just wake up. I get closer and check that Alya still asleep.

"Hey..." she rush me in a hug.

"I'm scared." she cried.

"Don't be my princess.. Daddy's here and always be here.." I lift her in my arms and take her while I try to swing her in my embrace. I could feel she's hiding her face on the crooked of my neck. I caress her back and calm her even the sound of thunder still could be heard. I still take a look at Alya but she still sleep soundly.

"You are my sunshine, my only sunshine, you make me happy when skies are gray, you'll never know dear how much I love you. Please don't take my sunshine away." I sing to calm her and I see she start calm on my embrace. I still hold her and swing her slowly.

Ariella Grace

I get in the mansion, Jane told me that they're in my room, I open the door slowly and I see Nathan has hold Anna while Alya just sleep on the bed.

"You are my sunshine, my only sunshine, you make me happy when skies are gray, you'll never know dear how much I love you. Please don't take my sunshine away." he singing while caressing her back and swing to let her sleep.

I know Anna must be scared because of the thunder and seeing them like that, has just melt my heart. What I've done so I deserves this kind of happiness in my life. I came closer and hug him from behind.

"Hey..." I said and he turn over gave me his smile.

"Hey..." he kiss me.

"How's your class?" he asked.

"All good.. Nath.."

" Hmm..." he humming and looking at me.

"Thank you for everything... " I said looking at him.

"Don't be thankful like that... this is what I should do for them and for you..I wanna be the best daddy and the best husband for you." He touched my cheek. I lean in on his palm.

"You are... you are the best daddy for them and the best husband for me."

"and you're the best things in my life too." He came closer and claimed my lips.

Nathan... I love you so much...Nothing more important than our little family now.. and I'm ready to sailing this journey together with you, until we grow old together, until we grey together, as long as you're with me, as long as we were together, than I have nothing to be worried for.
