How far could you go for love when the other has already forgotten you and her promises that made you fall in love in the first place?
"You promised me forever"
"But sadly, promises are meant to be broken"
A Second Novel to 'At My Best'
"Sshhhh! I just put Alexander to sleep" I was immediately cut off by Jennie since I've been making so much noise. I saw our son sleeping soundly in our bed.
"Awwwe, my little prince is so cute" I muttered as I slowly lay down beside him in bed.

Alexander
"He looks just like me" I giggled as I stare at my son.
"Oh, shut up, you! You already have Nate and Lauren who looks exactly like you" Jennie rolled her eyes and I still find it cute and sexy.
"No, you see Lauren? She's a lot like you, love. Also her bitchy attitude" I chuckled, earning a playful slap from my wife.

Lauren
It's been 7 years. We already have our three heirs and I cannot be more thankful for this life. I wouldn't trade my family for the world.
"Mommy, Daddaaaa!" our 2 kids yelled. Jennie immediately signaled them to minimize their voice so that wouldn't wake up Alexander and I'm glad they immediately covered their mouth to supress their noise. Cute.
"Hi, I missed you two!" I greeted as I engulf them in a hug. "How's school?" I asked them.
"It's okay, Dada. Auntie Sana fetched us" Nate answered.

Nathanael/Nate
"
Really? I thought Auntie Sana is busy today?" I scratched my head.
"Yaaa! I finished visiting the Kensington Palace early so I decided to drop by and fetch these cuties" Sana said while she puts down the school bags of the two.
"Thanks, Sana. How's Kensington?"
Right after Sana came back to UK, I persuaded my parents to continue adopting her. I always liked the idea of having a sibling and Sana has always been like one. After that, we appointed her to take care of Kensington, Jisoo for Sussex, and Momo for Windsor.
"Don't worry, Queen Lalisa! Everything is fine. You should losen up a bit, Lis. Spend some time with your family. You and Jennie have been nothing but super busy ever since you both take over your duties as the Queens"
Yes, 2 years ago, my parents have decided to retire already. The King -my dad, has been sick due to his age and my mom wanted to retire as well and spend more time taking care of dad. On the other hand, Jennie and I took the responsibility and promised to keep on leading this country to further development.
"You really think so?" I asked Sana. I know we became very busy but I hope that it won't make our kids think that we are neglecting them.
"Yes, so you better spend some time with the kids. Lauren talked to me while we are on our way here that you and Jennie were both busy and always fail to fulfill your promise to take and fetch them to school" I felt a pang in my chest as I heard that. Jennie also looked worried and sad upon hearing it.
Sana is right and I think we are starting to neglect our duties as parents.
After Sana's advice, Jennie and I started to fix our schedules and make sure that we will still give time to our kids. We arranged our time and ensure that we will still be able to take and fetch the kids to school and even attend to school activities so that our kids won't feel left out.
We also decided to take a leave from work and took the kids to the Caribbean for a short vacation. The kids had a lot of fun since this is our first time to go out on a vacation like this.

"Love?" I heard my wife call out from behind me.
I looked at her and signaled to sit beside me. She's carrying Alexander with her and we both watched Nate and Lauren as they play along the fine white sand of the beach.
"I love this..." she uttered. I looked at her, she's just watching the kids with her feline eyes I fell in loved with.
I love it. From how she looks right now with her sun kissed skin. How she holds our youngest making him feel he's in his safe haven. How she looks at our kids who are happily playing with the sand. I love everything about her.
"I love what we have right now, Lisa... I'd be honest, I almost lose my hope that we'll still end up with a family like this... That day we had the accident and when I realized that you have forgotten about me, about us... I thought we will never fulfill this dream anymore" she said and I noticed how her eyes started to well up.
I held her hand and engulfed her and Alexander in an embrace. I know how badly I messed it up. Imagine if I totally lost her, it's also equivalent to losing this chance of having this wonderful family. The family we were dreaming of and even caused us to get to that accident.
"I'm so sorry for making you feel that way, Jennie. I never wanted any of that but if there is one good thing that it has given us, it is the realization that no matter how far we got, those things only made us realize that we are stronger than it. And no accident will ever make us forget about each other, like.... to totally forget about our love. You are my forget you not, Jennie" I leaned on her and captured her lips.
"Yiiiiieeeeeee, Mommy and Dadda are kissy kissy" we both laughed at our little princess who teases us with her brorher. We didn't notice that the two were already in front of us.
"Naughty kids... come'on, we'll eat the foods mommy prepared" Jennie chuckled and stood up. I carried Lauren and held Nate's hand as we walk to our lodge together.
