20 years later.
"Kyra!" I shouted for my four year old.
"Mommy!" She shouted running up to me and jumping into my arms.
"Its bath time Ky" I said standing with her in my arms and taking her to the bathroom with me.
As I began to bathe her I heard bickering coming from the hall.
"You can't just barge into my room and take what you want!" I heard Kimberly my eleven year old daughter yell.
I left Kyra in the bath telling her I would soon return to see what the fuss was about.
Kimberly was arguing with her twin brother Dominic.
"What's the matter here?" I asked approaching them.
"Mom, Nic keeps barging into my room and taking my stuff, I have no privacy" she huffed and I looked at Dominic.
"I'm only doing what dad said mom, we heard her talking on the phone to some guy so I can't let her have privacy anymore" he shrugged.
"You are twins, resolve this before the day ends, and Nic? Give your sister some privacy" I said going to finish Kyra's bath.
When I was done I heard the front door open and an 'I'm home!' came.
I put Kyra's clothes on and went down to meet my husband.
I glared at him.
"Woah, what did I do?" Shane asked.
"Did you tell Nic to spy on Kim?" I asked and he gave me a sheepish look.
"I only want to keep her safe Hun" he said wrapping me in a hug.
He kissed my forehead and I instantly forgave him.
"Daddy!" I heard Kyra shout and I moved aside so she could run into his arms.
"Princess!" He said lifting her up.
Kimberly and Dominic came down and asked simultaneously.
"What did you bring?" And we all burst out laughing.
I guess they resolved their issue.
I looked at my family and I was happy for the way it turned out.
Shane and I were Engineers but still made sure we were there for our kids.
We got married when we were in college and started our family.
Let's just say the wedding was...unique.
After Julia and Drew got married they moved to Paris living their dream.
My parents were retired and living in luxury.
Nara and Zaya were in college studying to be doctors.
They grew up so fast.
Shane and I managed to get jobs while we were in college and paid down on our house that we owned.
We made a life together.
And I loved it.
I didn't even realize I spaced out until Kyra asked.
"Mommy? Are you okay?" With a worried look on her face.
"Yes baby, mommy is fine" I said walking towards them.
"Group hug!" I heard Shane say and I laughed while we hugged.
I was definitely happy.
