Chereads / YILDIZ MY AFRICAN QUEEN / Chapter 13 - new beginning

Chapter 13 - new beginning

"mom, dad, as you all know our agreement from the beginning, the time has come now to deliver your part of the deal" Randy said to his parents

"son, you haven't spoken to your wife yet, let her be the one to come to us with this, not us to her, let's rather do things by the book if we are going to do them" the queen said

"father?" Randy was now looking at his father who showed no interest in the topic

"your mother is right, by the way, I feel very tired, I need to rest" the king said.

"I'll be with you just now, Randy 8f you want to take a second wife, you sot your first wife down and talk to her, don't fight her, let her know the reasons for your will to take a second wife, let me go to your father, and please don't sleep over, go to your wife" she stood up and left him there

on hos way to his wife, he passed by yildiz's home, ebuka knocked but there was no reply

"you said they will be here by Friday ebuka didn't you?" Randy asked

"I did my prince" he answered still knocking until finally yildiz's mother came to the door

"hello, the prince is here to see you" ebuka said, Randy heard that and quickly ran to the door

"oh thank God you're here, can I come in?" he asked with pleading eyes

"come in" she let him in and offered him a sit.

"mom I'm sire you're wondering why I'm here, I know I haven't spoken to yildiz about this yet but I wanted to talk to you first, as you know that yildiz and I were dating, my intentions were to make her my wife, unfortunately I had to marry someone else first but I still want to make her my wife, my second wife..." he was interrupted

"you will not take my daughter as your second best, and I don't appreciate you coming to my house because you know you might get my daughter in trouble with your wife and your parents, I've warned you before so this is the last time or I will have to report you to the police for harassment, yildiz is happy with Nathan, he's actually planning to make her his wife, something you failed to do, so please leave my daughter alone, she's happy without you" She said those words holding the door open for the prince to leave, he stood up

"I love yildiz more than any man could ever do, she knows that, and I know she loves me too" he said

"the ring on your finger says a different story, leave my daughter alone, let her be" she then banged the door

Randy left worh a heavy heart, he was hoping to win yildiz's mother over but he failed, when he got home, he found his wife sitting with her mother in law

"evening" he greeted and sat down

"look who decided to come back home" Manuela said

"Manuela please" Randy said with a very low voice

"please what? huh? tell me, what brought you back here?" she asked

"I'll be in my room" he stood up

"you don't have a room here, this is my father's house, you are a visitor here" she screamed, Randy looked back at her, then her mother who wasn't bothered by her daughter's behavior, then he headed to the door

"Randy wait, I'm sorry, I just feel neglected, that's why I'm like this, please come back" Manuela ran to his to stop him from exiting the door

"Manuela I don't know what you want from me really, I have never given you a reason to doubt me, I have never cheated on you, I've always been faithful, loyal and open with you, all you do is to shout and fight with me for absolutely nothing, I'm getting tired of your behavior seriously, I can't tolerate it anymore" he opened the door but Manuela held him tight

"I know my love, I'm so sorry, please come back in so we can talk" Randy walked back in, he threw himself on the couch and looked at Manuela who was still standing

"what?" he asked

"I think I'm pregnant" Manuela said nervously

"you think?" he asked again

"I'm not sure, I've not seen my periods for this month" she said

"I'll take you to see the gynecologist tomorrow morning" he said half smiling, this wasn't his plan but he was happy, they sat there for a few minutes then headed to the bedroom

"babe I'll be back, let me talk to my mother first, get naked so long" she winked

....

"it worked, I've texted my Dr already, I hope this will not backfire mom" she was scared

"Manuela when have I failed you?, this will work, it will distract him" Manuelas mother said

"okay, I'll see you tomorrow then, goodnight" she went to bed and found Randy sleeping peacefully.

in the morning the couple went to see the doctor

"lie down here, this will be a bit cold, let's see what we have here" the doctor did the procedure, "oh, that's your baby's heart beat, can you hear that" he asked

"can we know the gender?" Randy asked

"it's a bit too soon to tell, you're only 18 weeks, let's wait until 23 weeks for the gender reveal" the doctor said.

after their appointment they went to have breakfast in a restaurant

"I'm deeply sorry for being strefull, it must have been the pregnancy" Manuela acted remorseful

"it must have, I'm just happy that soon a mini me will be running around, this is the best give, thanks Manuela" Randy said

after breakfast they drove straight to Randy's parents, the palace

"good morning, where's dad?" Randy asked his mother who was reading a novel in the living room

"he is getting to for a meeting with the elders, how are you my daughter?" the queen shifted her attention to Manuela

"I'm good mom, how are you?" she asked

"I'm also good, you look drained, whats wrong?" the queen asked

"I guess the pregnancy is taking a toll on me" Manuela randomly said

"the what?" the queen stood up and went to Manuela

"oh you just ruined the surprise babe" Randy said rolling his eyes

"are you guys expecting? is it a boy?" his mother asked.

"we don't know yet since is still 23 weeks" Randy answered

."did I hear correctly? did you just say I will finally be a grandfather?" the king asked coming down the stairs

"yes father, finally" Randy laughed

"I'm happy, this is what I have prayed for all these years, for you two to get married and have your own kids, nake as many as you want, we will take care of them for you" the queen said

soon the family members knew about the pregnancy and it was just happy atmosphere.

Randy was sitting with his father in the throne room

"I hope you have forgotten about the second wife saga" the king said

"father how I can I, I'm just a bit confused, but I'll wait for Manuela to give birth, I don't want to stress her" Randy said

"Randy Manuela is carrying your first born, how do you think she will feel when you dump the news of a second wife soon after she have given birth to your baby?" the king asked

"okay, I'll wait for the baby to grow a bit, but what I know is that I'm not forgetting about my love" Randy said

"and you think she'll wait for you ?" he asked

"then what must I do, I love her" Randy said

"listen my son, love is not everything sometimes, you have a wife who's royalty, who's educated, who's familiar with our way of living, who is currently carrying your child, you grew up with her, you know her and you once loved her, thay should count for something" the king said

"what's your point dad?" Randy asked

"I think it's best that she's the one loving you because she will do everything to keep you happy, unlike a woman that will take advantage of your love, and Randy my son, a baby changes everything, you don't want your baby to grow in a broken home, that's not fair" he had a point but Randy's mind and heart is with yildiz

"fine dad, I'll try to forget about her" he said with a heavy heart.

...

"why do you keep delaying this yildiz, don't you want to stay with me?" Nathan was angry, he's been asking yildiz to move in with him but she kept giving excuses

"I'm not ready for any commitments Nathan, can we not ruin our relationship with this?" she replied

"I don't know what you mean by that, but I'll give you exactly what you want, you don't want to get married to me, you don't want to move in and you dont want me to post you on my socials, you're ashamed of me, so I'll let you be, trust me today is the last time you'll ever hear me propose or ask you to move in with me, you will do you, and I'll do the same" he was very angry

"Nathan you're angry right now, I'm not saying I'll never move in or be your wife, but just not now, i still want to work on myself, I want to have a diploma in my name, I want to do everything I've promised myself to do before getting married, I'm half way to all those, just be patient with me" she said..

yildiz isn't sure to commit to Nathan since her heart is still with Randy, she's hoping one day he'd come running to her, on the other hand she's feeling bad for using him as a time pass, so she might end up getting married to him just to ease her conscious
