MEETING THE FAMILY

“Good morning everybody”, good morning to you too they replied in unison the way they looked at Tina suspiciously made her feel embarrassed wondering whether they had them moaning during their loving-making session. Tina bent down but Stacy was fast to welcome her and sit next to her she was always so motherly “come and sit next to me my daughter you need to eat right for the young ones instead of ken feeding you he’s keeping you locked down”, mum Ken tried to protest but the sentiments were supported by aunty Cherry yes son you need to let your wife feed well since she’s eating for three we don’t want our grandchildren starving. Ken had to shut up and brother Lewis patted him on the back cool down bro you know that the king's family is looking forward to their grandchildren, the babies are loved so chill and have your breakfast before it gets cold.

They had their breakfast and the men discussed a business that’s when Stacy asked when the wedding will be held but Ken insisted that they had to receive a doctor’s recommendation first since she had recommended bed rest because of the delicate nature of her pregnancy. Ken said we have a meeting at the office by noon darling is it okay if mum and aunty Cherry a company with you at the doctor’s visit. Tina replied “it’s okay if it won’t be a bother I’ll ask Lily also to accompany me since she was willing to take me. Not to worry just call her and tell her to prepare it's 10 am we will pick her up on our way to the hospital. Stacy was so excited and said, " Let me freshen up I am so happy to accompany you to the hospital and I know Cherry is also excited to join us. 

We have all sorts of women's stuff to do and some shopping for the babies. But mum Ken wanted to protest but his dad stopped him by suggesting that they needed to be on the way to the office for a meeting before the clients arrived and found no one. Let’s go we don’t want our clients to think we are jokers. Ken, Lewis, and the dad woke and ken kissed Tina on the forehead and told her, “take care baby if mum pushes you to the edge call me okay? Tina nodded smiling making her mum and aunty cherry sneer at him and his brother pulling him to go they were getting late. The men left and the ladies went to refresh and prepare for the doctor’s visit. They boarded the car, picked Lily up at the cottage, and arrived at the doctor's clinic at the prescribed time. The doctors were waiting for her after examination she was done an ultrasound and the babies were found to be okay but she was advised to take a proper diet and a little exercise and not to overdo it. 

Stacy suggested they visit a spa they needed a treat. The salon owner was waiting for them and they were welcomed and given a drink. Tina was given a comfortable cushion in a private room to relax and for her nails, eyebrows, and facial to be done they had to do an aromatherapy massage to relax her tired muscles, especially her back, also they were to massage the legs with tender care to allow blood circulation and she could feel relaxed for once.  Stacy had booked the spa for Tina and had talked with the senior messieurs Janay who would personally take care of her daughter law she knew that due to her present condition how fragile she was and needed great care. Stacy may have mentioned to Janay on the phone earlier, so when they arrived, a sweet lady paid attention to Tina personally. She welcomed her with a glass of fresh orange juice and gave her a comfortable cushion to sit on in a separate room from the other. That made Tina feel welcomed and decided to enjoy the day and relax.

 Janay the spa lady was very kind and considerate and they had a rapport with Tina since she had a baby girl who was two years old. “When are you due? Janay asked, in two months’ time Tina replied, Janay seemed surprised but I thought you are due any time soon. No now Tina replied” but I have twins that’s why my belly is huge. Tina was almost shedding tears. Janay who had gone the same said to her softly no darling forgive me I am so stupid it’s because of your mum is she your mum? Janay asked Tina replied mother in law wow you guys look tight, yah we are Tina replied she’s a second mother to me. I wish me and my in-law could be just a little bit closer imagine my daughter two years have never met her granny I feel sorry for her but I have no choice she wanted my husband to marry another girl but when I got married she decided she has nothing to do with me or her son. But we love one another and we have to fight for our love.  

“Ooh I am sorry”, Tina replied no don’t be sorry, my mother-in-law choose her path we will leave with that although I would love my daughter to enjoy time with the granny since my mum passed on about four years earlier. Don’t worry she’ll come around when she realizes what she’s missing in life her son's and granddaughters' love and she is also getting old.  I feel you, Tina said, I went through hell with my aunt and uncle they took my inheritance after my parents died and the house and turned me to be a servant. I was lucky to be saved by my best friend. Tina narrated her ordeal and Janay was touched they chatted more until her massage was finished and her spa session which comprised of a facial, pedicure, and manicure also her hair was treated after completion she looked in the mirror and the transformation was spectacular. 

Janay brought another beautiful grey flowery free dress that fitted her perfectly and she enquired why she was not putting on her previous dress but Janay replied that Stacy had instructed her puts on the new dress because they were going somewhere. She dressed up her hair was made up and she put on beautiful silver sandals that was matching the flowery grey dress that she was given and a white shawl to protect her from cold although of late Tina’s body was very hot most of the time she was not feeling cold due to her pregnancy condition but she needed the shawl to prevent her from getting cold, especially that she was not in the house. By the time Janay was done with Tina, they had created a bold Tina took her contact and Janay promised to visit her at home and can come to massage her back if she needs one. Tina was delighted to add a friend and hugged her and went to meet the other ladies in the main room. When she came out of the room she looked beautiful and was surprised to see Ken waiting for her but not Stacy and Cherry.

Tina got excited and Ken who seemed too engrossed in his phone was called by Janay she told him here comes the bride he looked up and gave her a big smile and could not help himself but hug and kiss his beautiful wife making her shy away because many people were now starring at the beautiful couple Tina looked like a butterfly and Ken was sharp with a grey suit and matching tie and shoes. The way they hugged and kissed as if nobody existed in their world and then Ken whispered to Tina in her ear “I can eat you raw my love you look adorable” making her brush her face become pink and she hide her face in his chest loving the man holding her in front of the world and is not afraid to proclaim her as his wife. Tina almost shed tears of joy but Ken comforted her and thanked Janay on her behalf and lend her out of the salon.

They left when Tina was leaning on his chest and he was holding her too tight like he would never let go. They left the salon and everybody was just enjoying the couple they looked so in love that others couldn’t hide but die with envy. One of the ladies in the salon said I wish I could get a man to love me like that, they are so perfect together. Ken took her to the car parked outside and opened the door for her she sat at the passenger’s side while Ken went to the driver’s side. Once they were both inside Ken locked both doors and started kissing his woman in the parking lot. He said you look so lovely my baby, I love you more every day my beautiful lady. That’s when Tina remembered Stacy and asked where Stacy and Cherry were in the salon. Ken explained after the meeting I could not stay away from you. I called your phone and you were not answering I panicked can’t afford to lose you again my darling, called my mum who explained to me you had an aromatherapy treatment in a special room. I got envious imagining it was a man massaging you but lucky enough my mum assured me you were with Janay and would be coming out shortly.

I released them to go home and waited for you when I was also having a haircut. “Thanks for waiting for me”, where are we heading to?”, Tina asked. “My surprise”, Ken replied I am taking you to our secret place. Aaah Tina became more curious please tell me, darling. It’s the secret place I wish to visit when I was a child. Ken put on some cool and sentimental music which made Tina sleep on the way and was awoken by Ken when they arrived at the venue. He woke Tina up and told her we are here darling wake up we need to feed you because I know you are hungry now. Please wake up Tina awoke up feeling fresh now and set for the evening. The siesta made her feel rejuvenated and ready to face the night. She was good to start her evening with the love of her life. When she opened her eyes they were in a rusty wooden cabin in the middle of the woods and it was lit with hanging lights with a four-wheel truck packed outside and some four security men who seemed to be guarding the premises. Ken said hi to his men and urged Tina to get inside while he was left talking to them or rather giving them instructions.
