The Crackhead Chronicles Of The Six Strange Swans

The Perfect Family (Part 2)

(Skip 3 months)

"Mommyyy!!" KJ and Ramisa shouts, running inside the house.

"Hey kiddos!" Scarlett hugs them both, "how's school today?"

"It's great! Ooh! I found a new friend. She seems lonely so I came over and now we're besties. Her name is Caitlin!" KJ chats excitedly.

"Ooh! Ooh! Today Mrs. Collins gave me a bonus star because I behave well on class," Ramisa grins. She loves behaving well and get rewards in class. The teachers love her because of it.

Scarlett is beyond happy listening to the kids' rants, enjoying their life. This is what she has dreamed of. A family with a comfortable life, loving and protecting each other.

Then Emilia comes inside after closing the door.
"Hey babe," Scarlett smiles at her wife. She stands up and walks towards Emilia.

"Heyy," Emilia returns the smile. They kiss each other.

"Eww," they hear the kids say.

"Shoo! Shoo!" Emilia chuckles, waving them away. The children ran upstairs laughing.

"How's your day?" Scarlett asked after their laughter died down.

"Eh, pretty good honestly. The company agreed to our proposal, Emilia smiles. Emilia runs her father's company at her young age, while Scarlett works as a freelancer from home.

"That's awesome," Scarlett hugs her, "congrats babe."

"Thank you," they pull away and head upstairs.
"How's your day?" Emilia asks back. She opens their bedroom door, letting Scarlett in first like a true lady she is.

"Well, the clients are rising, and yeah.. common activities like cleaning and stuff. Also.." Scarlett stops talking and picks up her phone.

Emilia raises her eyebrow, "yes..?"

Scarlett sighs, looking down at her phone while she sits on the bed. Emilia sits beside her and wraps her in a side hug.

"What's wrong with the phone, love?"

"N-no, it isn't the phone.."

"Then? What is it?"

"Christina from the orphanage called me today.. She said she knows that we're already completed, but there are twins that's just arrived at the orphanage,"

"Twins? How old are they?"

"Yes, twins. Fraternal though," Emilia nods, while Scarlett continues," They're 3 years old. Their parents just got arrested yesterday for abusing. They've been through a lot and still too young. Christina said she's hoping for us to be their parents.."

Scarlett looks down to her lap, playing with her phone. She's nervous on what Emilia would say because of the serious look on her wife's face.

"Well.. not to be rude, but do you want to adopt two more children but with traumatized conditions?" Emilia questions again.

Scarlett looks up and once again, with the eyes that have effect towards Emilia. Those eyes make her softer than before.

"Trust me, I really really love KJ and Ramisa, but.. I actually want younger kids to spend time with when I'm at home.." Scarlett's voice gets softer each word.

There's a short silence, making Scarlett even more nervous. But little did she know that it's just Emilia thinking of Salmon for dinner before snapping back to reality.

"Alright then, call Christina and tell her we're gonna be there at Saturday!" Emilia smiles.

"You sure?" Scarlett gasps, grinning happily. She wasn't sure that Emilia would agree to this. She thought that having 2 kids are enough for Emilia. She's happy she's wrong.. only this time though.
