Dea, who was lying on the bed, suddenly felt the urge to turn on her phone, which was previously turned off. For some reason, something was bothering her. The flat device, once lifeless, was now brought back to life by the woman. She gazed at the screen with an expressionless face, assuming there was nothing there. However, her assumption was wrong. There were several messages and calls from an unfamiliar number. Yet, Dea knew it was Mr. Bad. She immediately started reading the messages.

I could see he is anxious and so is mom. Where should I start on telling them the truth. I don’t know what to say or how to say it, I know I have to start from the beginning but before that I need to do something else. It’s now or never. I took out my phone and scroll through my gallery and found a clear picture of the triplets. I look at them and smiled, my children are my life. I don’t regret having them. After looking at the picture for a few second, I passed the phone towards mom and dad then then I bow my head down. I took a deep breathe then look at them again.

I closed my eyes back and mumbled “And I, you.” This is our forever new beginning…

Suddenly, Alpha Zack stood and yelled, " Everyone shut up!" All mouths were shut as we glued our eyes on Alpha Zack. "I have a solution to all your problems." he began and I felt hopeful for the first time in a long time.

Ruby gently rested a hand on her belly, smiling with unmistakable triumph. “The child in my womb is his biological son.” I lowered my eyes, trying to hide the tears that suddenly surged up. Zach really had betrayed me. Yet he still treated me like a fool, asking me to wait three more years for him. I calculated the timeline in my head. The child in Ruby’s belly was conceived on the night that Zach did not come home. That was the first time he forgot my birthday. He had stayed out to socialize for work instead.

A beat. "Starting now."
