After reaching home, Tanisha laid her twins down on the bed and covered them with the quilt. Adjusting the temperature in A. C. She entered the study room of her twins.
The room was 12 square meters room, Wall was painted with their favorite cartoon character Doraemon, The piles of books all over nestled on the floor to couch. The dresses they had been wearing recently on desktop. The packets of chips and Oreos all over resting. She brought the vacuum cleaner right after she decided to clean the room. Closing the door, She started cleaning..
However, In middle of work, Her eyes shifted on Tura's notebook on her desk. Among the twins, Tura liked to keep her stuffs arranged. She hated messy things. So Tanisha took the notebook to keep it on its place but she paused while flipping the pages randomly with a sudden shocked.
In every page, Tura wrote the word Dadda. It was clear that even though her children didn't know what father meant but they had been missing their another parent.. Tanisha sighed. Only one thing she wouldn't able to do was giving them a father as they desired..
Leaving a deep sigh, She just cleaned the room without thinking about it further..
Next morning..
The twins didn't miss to join their Mommy to jog together. But Today was unusual for Tanisha as The Twins were lost in their phone and they were gossiping with each other. She wiped her sweat with towel and decided to ask if something was bothering them..
" What's going on with you two? Is everything okay?" As usual to take some rest after jogging, they sat on the soft grass by lake.
The twins shook head at the same time. She already guessed something was going on with them since they were hyped up while answering them.
" I hate lying. What are you two hiding from me?" She sounded strict but The twins had no movement to open their mouth..
" Tura just learned a new coding, She is trying to learn more.. Nothing else, Mom"
Pushing his gold-rimmed spectacles to his middle of bridge of nose, He answered flatly. A nod added with his words from Tura who was looking too innocent to doubt further.
' Fine! But if you two have done something behind my back, Mark my words. No device will be stayed in my house."
The twins just nodded while running inside the house. Tanisha heaved a sigh but let it go. She just wanted them to grow up freely but safely..
Meanwhile...
It was already late afternoon, when William felt little tired while working. He called Alex to send a hot coffee in his room to feel little refresh.. Lots of things had been happening, what made him feel like exhausted..
However, When he opened his phone to browse, the incident from last night came to his mind. He wanted to give a try to know if those were really kids. Or Ms Tanisha herself tried to fool herself...
While standing in front of the frosted glass wall, Putting his one hand inside the pants pocket, He finally decided to have a go .
He called the exact number what was sent by twins. He was rapping his fingers impatiently when he called them. Frowning while thinking, he might catch the real culprit who dared to hack his phone..
But His eyes were fixed on nothingless with full of excitement. Somehow he wished to hear some cute voice instead of some adults..
" You are late, Uncle. We have been waiting for you to call us.."
William immediately took the phone away from his ears.
" A kid!!". He mumbled shocked. Once again, He looked at the phone number for nothing..
" Uncle! Are you listening us?"
This time, He heard another cute girl's voice.. He sighed before laughing at himself as he was really nervous. He was almost hacked by real 4 years old kids..
" I am.. How are you two?" He replied.
" We are fine.. Uncle! Do you know my Mommy? We found your phone number in my Mommy's office. Sorry for trying to disturb you "
Tura pouting her lips, apologized. A rare smile tugged at his lips as he found her apology cute and innocent. He walked towards his office chair and sat on it..
" How did you learn hacking? You two are only 4". He asked out of curiosity..
" We didn't. Our teachers said we can only learn basic computer but Uncle Elijah taught me coding and Taylor how to create game and other functions.."
Tura explained shortly. William was shocked by learning that Their parents were actually helping them to learn at this age.
" What about your parents? Don't they stop you to use devices at this age? You should play with kids now ". William worriedly spoke. He wanted to let his Kids have a beautiful childhood when he would have kids.
" We have friends. After coming back from school, We sometimes meet. We sleep over as well. Mommy said it will help us being friendly and understanding other people.."
After hearing the answer, One thing, William understood that the kids were mature than their age.
" So.. What are you two doing? You supposed to be at school right now!"
He felt like he was being fond of them. He loved how they sounded cute and innocent..
" It's already one and half years we have been learning computer. Mom said we should stop going to the computer class since we have crossed our limit by learning how to program and code. Maybe we will get admitted in normal school next year.."
After hearing the explanation, William felt relieved. He couldn't stand with the matter that the kids were with only device that they became computer prodigy at this age..
However, He felt more strange with his own actions. He never cared about others. But This time was different. He was actually felt annoyed and tensed about their childhood. He didn't want them to leave out of the childhood what they deserved..
But He didn't aware of that, learning computer was just a part of their education.. They had a simple and normal childhood what Tanisha made sure to have. A mixed version of advance world and a perfect childhood with fun..
Anyway, While talking with William, the kids already forgot that their Mom would come in their room before she left for office. While talking with William, Tanisha came inside the room.. She was on a call with her client..
" No. Mr Frendz! We would love to see you to have a face to face conversation than Video conference. When you will manage to find little time to come and discuss with us. We will welcome you anytime.."
While talking, She grabbed the Tee of Taylor from the floor and put it inside the closet. Taylor and Tura immediately hid their phone keeping William still on the call..
William was listening her conversation with her client.. Her voice was soft but stubborn. She sounded confident as she wouldn't go on a video conference to deal with the contract..
William leaned into the chair, closing his eyes. He kept listening her voice until his eyes closed in deep slumber..
At evening, New York..
With a heavy panting, William gasped the air, As He heard a sound. Alex was quietly placing the glass of water, the a file and his medicine on the table not disturbing his Boss who was sleeping soundly..
After waking up, William immediately got up from his place, eyes were bloodshot but his face was looking relaxed and refreshed. He was in a Daze that Alex had to clear his throat as he faked a cough to break the gaze of his Boss .
" You slept, Boss?" He sounded plain but he was happy after seeing him sleeping..
" I slept!! " He mumbled brushing his face on his palms. Later he gulped the water down, He walked back and forth.. Trying to understand how he fell asleep..
" I was just having a call and I...." The reality hit his head. He was indeed listening that calm and soft voice of a woman before sleeping. He frowned..
Alex was watching him being agile and impatient. He didn't understand what his Boss was mumbling..
" Is everything okay?" Alex concerned.. William running his hand through his silky hair, frustratedly sat on the couch..
" Call Ms. Daisy to meet me as soon as possible.." Rubbing the bridge of nose, His eyes were on the photo of the twins.. Alex nodded making the urgent call to William's personal psychiatrist..
As he helped him to bring another glass of water, Alex noticed the photo of the twins..
" Who are they? Your relatives? They look like you..Boss" Inadvertently, He commented on the photo. William frowned hard before looking up at Alex..
" What do you mean they look like me?"
He asked in surprise. He had a feelings that The kids looked like someone he knew but didn't understand who They looked like either..
" If I think yourself as a kid. All I can think is this little girl is your female version, yeah she got beautiful eyes which aren't black like you, Maybe from her mother she got blue eyes but her facial structure reminds me you.
And the boy. Without a doubt. Your Junior. Wait!!!
Boss. Do you have hidden kids somewhere? OMG!!"
William would have hit Alex's head for talking Nonsense usually but now he was lost in the photo of the twins.. Surprisingly, Alex was right. He couldn't think anyone but himself. Their smiles didn't belong to him but someone who had beautiful smile. A woman who would be more beautiful than he could think about it.
" Alex! I'm leaving to meet Ms Daisy.. Meanwhile I want you to collect the number of Ms Tanisha. I would like to talk to her personally.."
William stood up, deciding that he would collaborate with her. The mysterious CEO who never appeared in front of all business.
After instructing Alex about his next task, He headed out. The driver spotted him outside and opened the car door for him..
" First in my apartment, Then hospital."
The driver nodded. The driver was grateful towards William. Unlike his previous Bosses for who he drove, William always informed him about his exact destination where he would go or not..
After half an hour.. The car entered the downtown where a quiet and highly secured house was.. That one was William's personal 10 floored building but he stayed in 3rd floor.. Rest of them were rental apartment..
After entering the apartment, He without looking for Rebecca who was enjoying seasonal fruits while watching Netflix..He directly entered his study.
" Why are you back so early? Are you free? Can you take me out? I am bored.."
Following him, Rebecca entered the Study room as well but William had no time to talk with her..He opened a drawer and took a necklace out..
" Wow. Did you buy it? " Rebecca about to touch it but William put it in his pocket..
" I won't be home early tonight. I asked Ms Laura to come over and cook your dinner. Don't skip your medicine as well.."
After saying, He left. Rebecca frowned, biting her bottom lip thinking, for whom he bought the necklace..
While, William was staring at the necklace. He couldn't help but thinking about the night when he was indeed with a woman. When he was searching for his own clothes in the basement. He found the necklace under the blanket. He knew that necklace belonged to the woman who slept with him..
However, The necklace was custom-made but he was failed to find out Whose necklace it was. But Now as much as he thought about it, He couldn't help but thinking about Tanisha after matching all information together..
" I need to meet my doctor as soon as possible. It's driving me crazy.."
Clenching the necklace, He asked driver to drive as fast as possible. He needed to calm himself down first..
