...Betty found it hard to sleep all through the night. She kept on reminiscing about the events that occurred between her and nix. The surprise kisses ran chills through her spine anytime she thought of it.
Matt was right she missed nix but more now she thought of him. After a long thought, she stood up to go and meet Alicia but she paused in her tracks when she thought she might interrupt something.
Just then she heard a knock.
"Wanna talk?" Alicia asked.
Betty smiled to herself.
"Nix you have four days left to bring my son back to me" Sasha texted nix.
Nix laughed at seeing the message.
"Any problem dad?" Sajan asked as he joined Nix on the couch.
"Your mom misses you"
Sajan frowned
"Why?"
"You don't hate her do you?"
"A little"
"she's still your mom and you shouldn't feel that way toward her" Nix explained to Sajan.
Sajan was about to reply when they got interrupted by a knock on the door followed by the swinging open of the door.
"Matt?"
"Phoenix... it been long," Matt said giving Nix a hug
"Still all girlish huh?" Nix asked, his eyes searching for Betty
"Blame that on Alicia... it's her fault," Matt said pointing to Alicia.
"How are you?" Nix said walking over to give Alicia a hug
"3 feet" Matt yelled and laughed as he took his seat.
"You must be Sajan?" Matt commented when he saw Sajan
The boy nodded. The twins also came down on hearing the noise that was made in the living room
"We have a full house don't we?"
"Seems you love children" Alicia added taking a seat beside Matt.
"You three should go up," Nix told the kids softly
"Okay daddy" they yelled in unison and left.
"Someone's a father"
"Where did the two come from?" Alicia asked
"I adopted them"
"Why?" Alicia and matt asked
There was a long pause
"Because they loved Betty and she'll want to be with them".
"I don't get you phoenix"
nix sighed as he explained everything that had happened within the few months that had gone by.
"Am left speechless" Matt commented
"I thought she stayed with you?" Nix asked
"Yes she's at home" Alicia answered
"I wished that all these could just disappear within a second."
"It doesn't work that way"
Nix's face fell to the ground.
"I love her Matt. I know it'll be so hard for her to live with all these happenings....it'll be so hard to gain her trust and love"
Nix ranted on and on while Alicia and Matt watched him Ada pointed to Nix's voice and began to quiver
"What if I lose her forever?" Nix asked
Matt walked up to nix and sat beside him and patted him on the back.
"Nix ....."
"You never have to chase what wants to stay" Matt added. Nix raised a brow as he raised his head to look at Matt but something else caught his attention
"Betty?" he stood up
Betty went over to him and hugged him.
"Betty" the kids rushed down to the living room and hugged Betty
"I missed you" Noah spoke up.
"I missed you all" she kissed them on the cheek
"This is a cute family reunion but is getting hungry" Matt added jokingly
Everyone laughed
"I'll make us something to eat," Betty said in between the laughter
"I'll join her," Alicia said.
"I'll come too," Nix said surprising everyone but he just didn't want to let Betty go.
"We all can go" Matt added trying to cover up knowing why Nix said that. He winked at nix.
