I started painting.

I was shocked after seeing the painting. What shocked me is the girl in the painting. The girl in the painting is Ivy, not Willa.

A knock came at the door. I opened the door. Ivy was there with Akira in her as and Aadhira by her side.

"Pa, packing," Aadhira said. I locked the door and went with Aadhira. I packed her belongings as well as my other children also. They all were sad.

After giving Aadhira, Akansha, Alex, Anish and Anmol their dinner, I started feeding Akira. While I was feeding her, I noticed Ivy looking at me. I avoided her eyes as it would burn me. I feed Akira her dinner and made her sleep in my room. I helped others to change their clothes.

"Pope, please tell us the story," Anmol demanded.

"Not today. I'm tired," I said kissing their heads.

"Can we sleep with you?" Anish asked. I ruffled his hair and turned around. Before entering my room I said 'Come' and they all rushed in. I was closing the door when I saw Ivy smiling looking at me. I wanted to smile back but I stopped myself from doing it and closed the door.

"Da, wake up," I heard someone saying. And a second later I felt something hot and wet on my cheek. I opened my eyes and saw Ivy holding Akira near my face whose saliva is on my cheek.

I stood up and took Akira in my arms. I intentionally ignored the sparks when my fingers lightly brushed against her. I am sure she also felt it because I saw her looking at her fingers from the corner of my eyes.

Great now she got to know that we are mates.

I helped my children with the last minute of kings and later I dropped them to their grandparent's house. I had strictly warned Wyatt not to give them excess chocolate but he is Wyatt. In front of me, he gave them 3 chocolate each. I can only think about my babies tooth.

Before going to the packhouse, I brought five buckets of chicken drumsticks from KFC. I gave two to Aakav and Zara each. I went to my floor and saw Ivy on the couch sleeping. Her hair was all over her face with her mouth slightly opened. She was clutching a pillow close to her chest like a possession which she doesn't want to lose it.

Although the sight of her sleeping was beautiful still she should have dinner. So, I wake her up.

When she saw two buckets of the drumsticks her eyes widened.

"Are you crazy?" She asked me while eyeing the drumsticks.

"Why?" I asked taking a bite from my drumstick.

"Do you think I'll have space in my stomach after having a bucket of drumsticks?" She asked. "But don't worry, I'll eat it later," saying this, she took a bucket and put it in the fridge.

If Willa was here, she would have kicked me out of my own house for bringing only two buckets. And would not let me enter until I had brought two more buckets.

"You miss her?" She asked out of the blue. I looked at her and thought for the answer. Before meeting Ivy I used to miss Willa in every moment of my life. But after meeting Ivy I don't miss her as I used to. Now I only think about Ivy.

Am I forgetting Willa? I asked myself.

Am I forgetting the past? Am I ready to move on? Ready let go of the old memories with Willa and create new memories with no Willa in the picture?

All these thoughts came into my mind. And for the first time, I don't have any answers to these questions.
