Episode 14.
?Rose ?
I ran out of his room.
I got into my room and cried my eyes out.
Death why?.
Why did you took my parents from me?
Why did you took Sara from Nathaniel and the kids?
Why? I cried.
Mabel and Angel came in.
I cleaned my tears.
” Mum, are you crying? Angel asked sitting beside me.
” No my dear, am.. am..not crying” I said forcing a smile.
” All this is all because of dad” she said.
” Sorry mum” Mabel said.
I smiled.
” It’s not your fault princess”
” Let’s go Mabel” Angel said.
They both stood up and walked out the room.
I smiled.
” No rose, you can’t be weak, you can’t let’s Nathaniel words get to you”
” You have to be strong for the kids” I said to myself.
… ? Nathaniel ?
I got out of the room and head downstairs to get a bottle of water.
No one is there.
I took the water and drank it.
I got up and head to the kids room.
I got to the door.
I sighed.
I knocked on the door.
No response.
I opened it and saw them together on the bed.
They saw me walked in.
They looked away.
I sighed.
I got to them and sat down on the bed.
” Angel, Mabel am sorry” I said.
They didn’t even spare me a glance.
They kept quiet.
” Please forgive me, am sorry” I said.
” Dad, we don’t want to talk to you”Mabel said.
I sighed.
” Mabel, please am sorry , please forgive Dad” I said.
She looked at me then Angel.
” Am sorry Angel” I said.
” You should be telling the sorry to mum not we” she said angrily.
” I know you are angry with me but am sorry” I said.
” How could you make her cry dad, you couldn’t get us mum but we got ourselves mum..you don’t love us but she love us.. you don’t care about us but she care about us but what did you do dad? What did you do? You made her cry” she yelled.
Tears dropped from her eyes.
I sighed and cleaned her tears.
” Please forgive me Angel, am sorry” I said.
” Really? She scoffed.
” You want me to forgive you after hurting her feelings? She asked.
” Please Angel” I pleaded.
” We can’t forgive you” she said moving away from me.
“Please Angel, Mabel please” I pleaded.
” Angel” Mabel called.
She looked at her then me.
” Okay, we will forgive you on one condition” she said.
“Okay, what condition?
” You will apologise to mum then promise not to say any bad words against her” she said.
” I should apologise to her? I asked.
” Or can’t you apologise to her? Angel arched her brow.
” But Angel..
” I see you don’t want us to forgive you” she said.
,” will you do it? Mabel asked.
” Okay. I will” I said.
” Promise? Mabel asked.
” Yes I promise” I said.
” Dad you must keep this promise or I won’t forgive you ever again” angel said sternly.
” Okay ” I said.
” We have forgiven you” she said.
I smiled.
” If you have forgiven me then give me a big hug” I said.
She smiled and hugged me.
I hugged Mabel.
” Now let’s go out for fun” I said.
” Will mum be coming along? She asked.
” If you want her to” I said.
” Okay let’s go to her room” Angel said.
We got to rose room.
The kids insisted I go inside with them.
We met rose writing in a book.
“Mum” Angel called.
She smiled at her.
She looked at me.. her smile disappeared.
“Dad” Angel called and winked at me.
I sighed.
” Hmmmm.. am sorry” I apologized.
” For? Angel arched her brow.
” Dad” Mabel called.
” Uhnnnmm.. Rose am sorry with the way I spoke to you earlier” I apologized.
Angel and Mabel smiled widely.
“Mum..please forgive him”Angel said.
” I have Angel” she said kssing her cheek.
” How about me mum? Mabel pout.
” Come here” she smiled.
She kssed her cheek also.
Mabel smiled.
I looked at them.
The kids looks very happy with her.
I smiled.
” Mum, we want to go have some fun, please come along with us” Mabel said.
” Mum don’t bother preparing dinner because we will be having dinner outside” Angel said.
Rose looked at me then the kids.
” Please mum,come with us”Angel said.
” No Angel,I can’t come with you” Rose said.
” Why mum?
” I have some work to do and am a bit tired ” she said.
“Mum” Mabel pout.
” Princess, some other time” she said.
“But we want you to come”
” I know.. I love you okay.. make sure you have some fun and get something for me also” rose said smiling at the kids.
” Okay mum… We love you” Angel said and kssed her cheek.
She smiled and kssed their foreheads.
I smiled.
” Let’s go dad, see you later mum” she said walking out of the room with Mabel.
Rose and I stare at each other.
” Rose..I..
” Dad” the kids yelled interrupting me
She smiled.
I smiled and walked out of the room.
.
We were able to have lot of fun today with the kids.
I bought dinner for rose.
We got home.
” Thank you dad” Mabel smiled.
” We really had lots of fun. You are the best”Angel said.
I smiled.
She yawned.
” Goodnight Dad” angel said.
I kssed their foreheads.
” Let’s go to mum’s room”Mabel said.
We go to her room
We met her sleeping.
” Dad, we are going to sleep now” Angel said.
” Okay”
They both walked out of the room going to their room.
I got to rose bed.
I looked at her.
A smile creeped on my face.
Her hair fell covering her face.
I removed it.
She smiled even in her sleep.
She is really beautiful though” I thought.
I dropped the dinner I bought on a small table beside her bed.
I looked at her once again.
I muttered
” Goodnight”
I walked out of the room.
