Episode 06.
?Rose ?
It’s been a week since i started living here.
The kids are very adorable.
I just love them.
Nathaniel has already warned me to stay off him.
Am only here for the kids.
I shouldn’t poke nose in his business if i still want to remain staying here.
I woke up this morning, took my bath qnd dressed up.
I got into the children’s room. They covered them selves up with the duvet.
They are still sleeping?
I smiled.
” Wakie, wakie princess” i said.
” Wakie wakie Angel”
” Boooomm” they shouted laughing.
I smiled.
So they were not sleeping?
” So you were awake? I asked.
” Yes” Angel said while Mabel nodded her head.
‘ so why did you pretend to be asleep? I asked.
They looked at each other.
” Our little secret” they said smiling.
I smiled.
” Okay, get up, get up, let’s take our bath” I said.
They both got up.
” Before our bath, let’s arrange the room” i said.
They nodded their heads smiling.
We arrange the room neatly.
I brushed their teeth.
And bathed them.
I dressed them up and styled their hair.
” We are very beautiful” they yelled smiling.
I laughed.
” I look just like a princess” Mabel said smiling.
” And I look just like an Angel” Angel said smiling.
” Of course” i smiled.
” Thank you ma’am rose”
” You are welcome now let’s go prepare breakfast” i said.
” Yeeahhhh” they yelled happily.
I smiled.
I held their hands walking out of the room.
We got to Nathaniel’s door.
” We want to greet dad” Angel said.
” Okay” i said and left their hands.
” You can come with us ma’am” Mabel said.
” No princess, I can’t come in” I said.
” Why? Angel asked.
I smiled.
” Quickly go in while I wait here” i said kissing their cheeks.
They looked at each other then went in.

? Nathaniel ?
I was on the bed sleeping when I felt someone pinched my cheek.
I opened my eyes and saw my children on the bed laughing.
I smiled.
” Good morning Dad” they shouted smiling
I smiled.
” Good morning” I said kissing their foreheads.
” How are you dad? Angel asked.
“Am fine and you? I asked.
” We are fine” Mabel said.
” You both are looking very beautiful” i said smiling at them.
” Ma’am rose did the magic”Mabel said.
While angel nodded her head.
Their hair is beautifully styled.
” I look just like an Angel”Angel beamed.
” And I look just like a princess” Mabel beamed.
I smiled.
” What about me? I asked pouting.
They looked at each other and smiled.
” You look just like…..
” Just like what? I asked.
They looked at each other again smiling.
” I look just like what? I asked smiling.
” Just like a King” they shouted smiling.
I laughed” Really? I asked.
They nodded their head.
I smiled.
” See you later dad, we want to prepare breakfast” Angel said.
They both ran out of the room.
I smiled. ” My kids are really happy”
Happiness is written all over their faces.
It’s been a week since rose started living here even though am not comfortable with it but there is nothing I can do about it.
I can’t deny the fact that she is really taking care of the kids.
They are very fond of her.
She get scared whenever she sees me.
I already warned her to stay off me and focus on the children if she still wants to stay here.
She is only here for my kids.
I got up and stared at Sarah’s picture.
” Our kids are really happy, how I wish you are here to make them happy and not a stranger” I said.
” I really missed you” i kissed the picture and walked into the bathroom to freshen up.
.
?Rose ?
We got into the kitchen and prepared the breakfast.
I set the dinning to eat.
I dished out the food.
Nathaniel doesn’t eat at all.
I saw Nathaniel coming towards the dinning.
” Good… Morn…Ning…sir..'” i stuttered.
I get sacred whenever I see him.
He glared at me.
I fixed my gaze on the floor.
He just hate me and I don’t even know why?
” Dad came have breakfast with us” Angel said.
” No Angel, am okay” he said.
” Please dad, we prepared it” Mabel said.
” No Mabel, I have to go now” he said.
“Dad please, just one spoon” Angel said.
” Please Dad” Mabel pleaded pouting.
He sighed and looked at me.
I looked away.
” Okay”
Angel smiled, she took her spoon and fed him.
He took it.
” Can I leave now? He asked.
” Not yet dad, what about mine? Mabel asked pouting.
” Okay”
Mabel also fed him.
” Thank you Dad” Angel said smiling.
” You are the best” Mabel said smiling.
Angel nodded her head.
” Okay, am off to work now”
He kissed their foreheads and left.
I breathed out relieved.
His presence scares the shit out of me.
I sat down.
We all ate our breakfast and cleared the dish.
We sat down at the sitting room.
” Ma’am rose let’s go shopping” Angel said.
” Shopping? I arched my brow.
” Yes” she said
” And why? I asked.
” We are tired of staying indoor we just want to have some fun” she said.
‘” please ” Mabel pouted.
But now I don’t have much cash on me.
I sighed.
” Please ma’am” Angel pleaded.
” Angel, Mabel, am sorry but for now I don’t have much money on me” i said.
” Don’t worry about that ma’am” Angel said.
” We will take care of it” Mabel smiled.
I looked at the both of them.
” Let’s go call Dad” Angel said.
They stood up and went up the stairs.
I followed them.

I was in the office when my phone rang
I checked the caller.
It is Angel.
What is wrong?
She has a phone but hardly call.
I gave her the phone incase there is an emergency.
I picked it up.?
” Hi Dad” she said.
” Angel, is something wrong? I asked
” Not really dad, we want to go have some fun but we need money” she said.
” Okay” i said.
” Dad we are tired staying indoor. We want to go out but ma’am rose doesn’t have any money” she said.
” Okay, go into my room. Check my drawer beside the bed. Picked up my card and make use of it” i said.
” Okay, dad thank you”
” You are welcome”
” We love you, see you later”
She hang up.
I smiled.

“I just spoke to Dad now.
He said I should go to his room and pick up his card in the drawer” Angel said.
” Really? Mabel beamed.
She nodded her head.
” Come on let’s go” Angel said.
” Ma’am rose come with us” Mabel said.
” No.. I can’t” i said.
” Please..please please” she pleaded.
I sighed.
” Okay. Let’s go”
We all walked into Nathaniel’s room.
Wow” excaped my mouth.
His room is extremely large and beautiful.
His pictures were hanged on the wall.
I saw the picture of him and a beautiful lady.
I kept staring at it.
She is really beautiful.
They looked perfect together.
” That is our mom” Angel said.
” Ohhh”
” But she is no more now” Angel said sadly.
” It’s okay Angel don’t feel sad” i said.
” We have picked the card, let’s go” she said.
I looked at the room once again.
Their pictures were hanged all over especially the lady’s pictures.
She is really beautiful.
We all walked out of the room.
