The Trap

Chapter 76

Hi readers! I'm so sorry that I haven't posted in a while. It's been a crazy summer, that's for sure! By now, you should know me and know that I write long chapters. I just love this set of characters and the plot lines! I hope you enjoy this even though it's pretty long, so sorry! 

Please note: I don't know how family court works, so those scene were made up from my imagination.

Joshua ran into the kitchen. "Mama! Mama!"

Paula stop what she was doing to tend to her son. "Yes, Joshua?"

"Mama, when is my brothers comin'?"

"Sweetie, we talked about this. The babies in Mama's tummy could also be a brother and a sister or two sisters. We'll just have to wait a little bit longer to find out."

"Okay, but I wanna brother!"

"You have a brother, sweetie."

"I wanna to be big like him!"

"You will be a big brother!"

The little boy's eyes doubled in size. "Really?!"

Paula smiled and nodded. "Yep!"

The little boy hugged his mother before kissing her stomach. 

"Joshua, the babies love you too!"

He beamed and ran out of the room.

"Joshy, what did Mummy say?"

"Um..."

"Did she tell you what she's having?"

"Babies!"

"I know son, but did she tell you if it's brothers or sisters?"

"No."

"You sure?"

"Yeah. But you know what, Daddy?"

"What?"

"Imma gonna be a big brother just like Dylan!"

"Yeah, you will be!"

"And Imma help!"

"Good! Mum and I need all the help that we can get!"

He smiled and nodded.

"Good boy! Now go play!" Simon said ruffling Josh's hair and gave him a cookie.

"Yay!!" Josh smiled, grabbed the cookie and ran upstairs.

When the little boy had disappeared upstairs, Simon walked into the kitchen.

"Wow that smells good."

"Thanks, it's for the party tonight."

"Who's coming?"

"Our L.A. family."

"Oh is that what you're calling them now?"

"Yeah I thought it fit."

He nodded as he reached for an apple before taking a big bite. She suddenly spun around and looked at him. 

"So Josh came in to ask about the twins again."

"Oh did he?" he asked, with his mouth full.

"Yep. Now it's the third this week that he asked me about the genders. I'm starting to think someone is bribing him."

"What? You think I'm doing that?"

"Well it would make sense."

"What would?"
