“Officially Mrs Wilson,” Izabelle chanted as she held their red marriage card as they both held hands coming out of the civil affairs bureau where they had just registered their marriage. Yeah, you read right. They were officially husband and wife in the eyes of the law. “Go in, wife.” Getting to the parking lot of the bureau, Marcel opened the front seat door for Izabelle, and smiling cheekily, she got into the car and closed the door while Marcel turned around to get into the driver's seat.“Are you sure we made the right decision by registering our marriage before we had a proper wedding? I feel like the people around us are going to be angry when they find out that we got married without their notice. Rosie, Ruby, Grandfather, your parents. They’re going to be angry,” Izabelle said out her worries to him. “Don’t worry, sweetheart. We’re adults and can make our own decisions. They’re not going to say anything, okay? It’s our decision. Besides, it’s not as if we aren’t going to h

*Gasps*Rosie’s gasps were heard as she stared at her parents in shock while dropping her fork on the table. “What's wrong, Rosie.”The child just kept staring at them with her mouth open before she pointed at the ring on Izabelle’s finger. Her mouth was open. “Mommy? Are you married?”“Wh…what?”“That's a wedding ring, Mommy and you're also wearing it on that finger. My teacher taught me what the different fingers mean. Daddy, did you two get married without me?”Izabelle’s eyes widened seeing the expression of Rosie and she looked at Marcel for help but he said nothing and just kept eating his food. Bastard! He left her to her fate already since she was the one who had a ring and not him. “It's…. It's not like that, Rosie.”“You two really got married without me?”The child looked like she would cry if a proper explanation was not given to her. She was going to burst out in tears and ruin dinner that evening. “We didn't have a wedding. We just have a ring. But don't worry, we'll

“They both are going to be so smart when they grow up. I can't wait to see them grow up. In five years, they both will be running around everywhere,” Ruby added. “I don't want them to grow up. They'll get stubborn the more they grow. I want them to remain babies.”“Right. But there's nothing we can do because they will surely grow up. We can't control nature, can we?”Izabelle smiled because, like Kathie, she didn't want their babies to grow up. She wants them to remain babies and keep depending on them. When they grow up, they would want to live independently. What will happen when Rosie gets eighteen? Her stomach turned when she thought of that because she would not want her baby of today to grow up that fast and we all know how time flies and how children grow. Once she gets to eighteen, she would want to live too freely and might even have to move out of the house to go to college. And what about when she would get married? Oh shit! She doesn't even want to think about those ti

Izabelle looked at the time on the golden wall clock at the end of the bed and she sighed. How come she woke up this early? It was only seven o'clock and it's not like she was going somewhere today. Her eyes fell on the two human beings who were lying beside her and smiled as she watched them sleep. Marcel has Rosie wrapped around himself and she also buried her entire body in him as if she wanted to become one with him. Maybe that was her desire though. She must love her father a lot. Just as she covered them with the blanket properly, she saw his eyelash flutter and before she could remove her gaze from him, his eyes abruptly opened and fell on her. Her eyes widened. “Do you want to kiss me?” Those were the first words that fell off his tongue and she immediately removed her gaze from him. “Kiss? Me? I…I don't want to. I was only wondering who did this?”“Did what?”“The glass and watch on the floor. Did you perhaps drop it?”She asked as Marcel sat up on the bed and stretched h

Breakfast that day was fun since all the family members were around. Oldman Rossador also came in some minutes after Rosie woke up and brought his gifts too. The breakfast was the best that they have had in the past months. Who would have thought that eating with this many people would be so fun like this? Rosie was the center of attention, of course, she was going to be. It's her birthday after all. As an attention lover, she chanted happily and took everything that was given to her. How she wished that they could even play a game on her birthday. “Daddy, you still having given me my gift,” she spoke out loud. She wondered what her father had for her that was taking him this long to bring. Was it something that big or was it that her father didn't buy her any gifts at all? No, that was impossible. There was no way that her father would forget to buy her gifts on her birthday. He loves her right? Well, since you want it, I'm going to give it to you here,” Marcel said as he dipped
