Aurora you need to follow my footsteps. I want our children to be of the same age or maybe just a year older, just like the both of us.
"Aurora let out a deep sigh as her eyes met Mark's. It was visible on his face that he was worried. "Of course don't worry"
*****
Aurora sat behind her mirror applying her evening lotion when Mark came to sight. He wrapped his hands around her waist and buried his head in the crook of her neck inhaling her sweet smell.
"Hmmm you smell soo good. Aurora giggled,she closed her eyes enjoying her husband's embrace. "Will you join me in England?
"I doubt"
He released his arms and took a step back from her. "And may I know why? "As I already said Mom wants to spend some time with me,I thought we were through that.
Arhh yes,I was just asking maybe you changed your mind who knows. "Honey do you really want a child? "Of course I do,I would love to have one of my own.
"Hmm I see,but you're scared to do what it takes to get a baby... Mark blurted with an expressionless face. "It's not like that, I..I
Could you be more shameless. She run out of the closet flushed.
*****
I'm ready, I will be waiting for you downstairs. "Sure Honey". Mark has been calling me honey ever since Angel's Anniversary. He's been putting much effort into our relationship and I appreciate it,me on the other hand love whatever he's doing for me. He's slowly stealing my heart.
Tiwa left for Italy after my surgery. I miss her soo much. She needed space from all the drama's of New York. I hope she finds love wherever she is.
After having breakfast we headed straight to my Parent's. "Are you okay with this idea of me staying at my Parent's for a week. "Yh I am , it's not like I have a choice and besides I'm leaving the country. Who I'm I to complain, it's obvious you will choose your family over me afterall I did nothing but brought pain to you.
Aurora's facial expression changed into a sad one. Please don't say such things I really want to come with you but...try to understand me Mark. I have to spend time and get to know them you know.
"It's okay I understand. We're here.
I raised my head and a golden metal gate came to sight. "Wow" that was the word that escaped my lips.
The fucking gate is made of gold, looks like my parents live like Royalty. "This is just the beginning, there's more to what you're seeing.
"You don't say. Mark rolled down his window Glass. "We meet again chief. I'm here with your Madam, the one who will become your Boss in a few years to come. Don't you think it's a bit rude to hold her here?
"I'm sorry sir. He spoke into his two way radio and within a sec the gates were wide open. Mark drove into the large yard. His guards opened the door for him and Aurora. This place is beautiful. The bushes were neatly trimmed,there was a huge fountain in the middle of the yard. The water glinted like diamonds. The Mansion was breath taking,it looked exactly like a castle.
"I can't believe I missed this my whole life. And wait up,is this place a military camp. There were guards stationed everywhere. They looked intimidating. I panicked when I saw one with a gun.
Hey hide the weapon, my wife is scared of weapons... Mark intoned. "Thanks Mark"
Sorry for scaring you ma'am,he bowed.
It's okay,just hide it when I'm around.
We walked to my Parents, they were standing in front of the mansion with tones of maids behind them. "Welcome home dear"
Mom, I run to embrace her. "How are you darling? I'm good. "You"
I'm fine baby.
Dad, I embraced him too. Darling how are you? I'm fine Dad. I saw you speaking with the guard,you looked scared is everything fine?
"Yh everything is fine, Im a bit scared of guns.
"Oo I see, I will ask them to hide it when you're around. "Thanks Dad"
Mark's guards don't use it when I'm around so I'm ...I hope you understand. "It's okay darling I understand your fear...kim cupped her cheeks.
Urhmm Hi everyone, I'm Hazel Aurora Wilson Riverson but you can call me Aurora cause I'm used to that but Hazel will also do.
Welcome Home young Miss,they greeted in unison as they bowed their heads.
Father, Mother I will take my leave now.
Nonsense come on get inside... William intoned. Yh you have to at least have a drink.
As much as I would love to,I have to get to the Jet terminal in thirty minutes. Don't worry mother I took in breakfast.
"Alright if you say so. Aurora walked in large strides towards him. He smiled at her as he cupped her cheeks. "I'm gonna miss you he said playing with her nose.
" Mark" She embraced him. I will miss you too. She initiated a kiss and he gladly responded. They went on for a while until Mark tasted a salty liquid in his mouth. He pulled out holding her close to him.
"No I don't want to see those. He took a tissue from his pocket and used it to wipe her tears. She lay her head on his chest for a while before letting him go finally.
Mother, Father I will take my leave please. "Take care Son" Mark pegged Aurora and left for his car. Aurora stood rooted waving at the car before it was finally out of sight.
Come my Princess. She smiled at Kim and followed her inside.
