” You won’t attend your children’s meeting because of a business trip?
” A very important business trip”
” Important? Much more important than your children’s happiness? I half yelled.
” Leave my room now” he said walking away.
” What kind of a father are you? I yelled.
He stopped on his track without Turning to look at me.
” You don’t consider your children’s happiness, it is all about you and you only.. you are just so selfish” I yelled.
He turned and looked at me angrily.
I gulped.
” How dare you speak to me in that manner?.
” Do you derive joy is making those children hurts? I yelled.
” Young woman, leave my room or else..
” Else what? You will you do? Accuse me of stealing in the children’s presence? I asked.

” I know but those kids are like my children even though am not their biological mother” i said
” You can go with them to the meeting but I won’t be coming” he said .
” Let’s him be mum, he won’t be coming along” Angel said entering inside with Mabel beside her.
He looked at her shocked.
” Mum? He muttered inaudibly but I could hear it.
” Let’s go mum” Mabel said.

” Angel, Mabel what did you just call her now? He asked staring at me.
” Yes dad, ma’am rose is our mum” Angel said holding my hand.
“Your mum? You refer to her as mum? He asked still shocked.
” Yes dad, she is our mum” Mabel said.

” Let’s of my arm, what do you want to talk about? I asked.
He lets go of my arm.
He looked at me with so much anger.
” What are you trying to do? He asked.
” Trying to do? Nothing.

” How do you mean? I asked confused.
” Don’t pretend to me woman.. i know women like you are nothing but thief ” he yelled.
” What are you taking about? I yelled getting angry.
” You are a big disgrace.. you came here in the pretence of looking after my own kids.. but the truth is you are here because of me.. you came here maybe you could get a chance with me.. you have succeeded in deceiving the kids Making them believe you love them.. you made my children call you their mother so maybe I could consider getting married to you” he yelled angrily.
I gasped shocked
” That is not true” i said getting teary.
” Yes that is the truth, you also want me to come along with you to the kids meeting so people can believe we are together.. that we are married and you are the mother of my kids you are nothing but a gold digger.. you manage to get into this mansion just for money..” he yelled.
” That’s not true” I yelled.
” Then what’s the truth? Tell me? He yelled.
Tears dropped from my eyes.
” I never knew you could stoop so low” he said with gritted teeth.
” Enough, you have said enough” i yelled.
? Nathaniel ?
” Enough, you have said enough” she yelled.
I looked at her angrily.
” I never came here because of money, I never wanted to come here but mum and dad begged me to and the only reason I came here is to look after the kids am not here for you” she yelled with tears in her eyes.
” Really? I smirked.
” Yes, i came here for the kids and I was able to give the kids the motherly love and care you deprived them of.. Because you lost your wife you became so cold and pay less attention to the kids.. you only think about yourself.. what about the kids? Didn’t they lost their own mother? Sara was your wife but isn’t she the kids mother? Tell me” she yelled angrily.
” You..
” Keep quiet.. you have said what you wanted to say.. now it is my turn to talk” she said pointing a finger at me angrily.
I looked at her surprised.
Who gave her the gut?
” The kids decided to call me their own mother because of the love and affection i showed towards them I never forced them to call me that… Neither did I want you to come along with the meeting. The kids begged me to come here and talk to you maybe you could change your mind but what did you do? What did you do?
” You accused me of coming here to get a chance with you? Tell me who are you? Who are you? She yelled.
” I am Nathaniel Raymond” I yelled.
She looked at me then laughed.
” Nathaniel Raymond? A wealthy business man? A cold-hearted and ruthless man. A selfish man.. a man with no human feelings because he lost his wife? She yelled.
” Rose.. you have..
” Do you think you are the only one who lost someone precious to you? She asked crying.
” Do you think you are the only one? That you think you can just treat people anyhow because you lost your wife? She yelled in tears.
” Yes am the only one” I yelled.
She looked at me with so much anger
” I hate you” she said and ran out of the room.
I sighed and ruffled my hair angrily
My kids came in.
” You have succeeded in Making mum cry” Angel yelled in tears.
” I hate you dad” Mabel yelled.
” You are a monster” Angel yelled.
Tear dropped from my eyes.
” Am sorry Angel” i said trying to touch her.
” Don’t touch me” she yelled and ran out of the room.
Mabel looked at me with anger on her face.. she also ran out.
I sighed.
My heart shattered even more to hear my kid call me a mĀ©nster.
All because of what I said to rose.
They really love her more than me.
” I shouldn’t have said those things to her” i thought sadly.
Now my kids hate me.
What should I do now?
Tear dropped from my eyes.
