zamar had her busy morning routine, yildiz helped her with the two kids, yildiz j helped her with making lunch boxes, while she helped the the rest of the kids bath and dress, Roman haven't noticed how busy she gets in the morning until now, he looked at her, she was even sweating but she smiled throughout her routine, playing and singing with the kids, then she went to bath, she had on her simple make up, while the kids were having breakfast, when she got out of the bedroom she screamed
"pick up your bags and run to tue car" as she came down the stairs, she didn't have time for breakfast
"is your mommy not having breakfast?" Roman asked, yildiz j rolled her eyes
"she never has time to have breakfast, 8 kids to bath and dress?" she said with attitude, Randy cleared his throat
"why don't you take the kids to school today Roman, they'll love it" he said
"yildiz you're still here" zamar said from the living room passing
"I'll drive them, you can have breakfast" Roman said
"are you sure?" she asked
"I'm sure, have breakfast" he said , zamar handed him the keys to the quantum and went to the dining room, she dished up after greeting, she ate in silence
"when was the last time you went to spa?" yildiz asked
"I can't remember the last time I had beauty sleep" she said and they laughed
"you're amazing zamar, you cannot tell that you only have 5 kids, you..." zamar spoke
"I have ten kids" she said, yildiz chuckled
"thank you so much, you're exactly what Roman needs, we appreciate you" Randy said
"honestly speaking, I'm only here for Nnenas kids, they matter to me that much, I know if I leave they'll suffer, your son is so ungrateful and I've discovered that I'm here because I fell pregnant the first time, not because he loves me, I thought he said that out of anger, bit he never came to apologize that means he's not sorry" zamar said.
"so you would have left with your kids, all five of them if nnena was still alive?" yildiz asked
"yes, you can't believe yildiz has a crush, and the boy is a jerk, Raymond last night asked me how to approach a girl, he's only 15, I was shocked, I would've told him to ask his father, but I gave him the answer anyways" zamar said with tears in her eyes
"zamar my baby we see you, Roman might not, but we do, the kids see you, and they appreciate you, they love you, I bet they don't even who their mother is, because even when nnena was alive, you were always with them, and you're not a fool for being around, believe it or not, Roman needs you, he may not see that now, but he will" yildiz said
"eventually" Randy added
"yes, eventually, I so hate using that word" yildiz said
"it always is like that, something has to happen before someone knows someone else's value in their lives" Randy said
"yes true" yildiz said, zamar was looking at them with a smile
"I wish I had the kind of love you two share, look at you" She said, thay laughed
"we were sharpened by the problems we passed through, there were times we hated each other, but after that, we learned to love and respect each other, love I'm talking about cherish, care, appreciate, value, nature" Randy said
"I hear you, let me bounce" zamar said
"go do your make up again, I'll fix you your lunch box" yildiz said, zamar ran up and did her make up, she was very beautiful when she came out, then drove to work.
Roman bought flowers for her and drove to her boutique, he was so smitten when he saw her, she was in a cream white two piece, linen ankle length, they have fur on the bottom, they are high waist, then she had a blouse tugged in, it's sleeveless with fur on the collar, she wore her lime fur wedges, she had cut her hair short when she realized she wasn't going to cope with the kids and styling hair, and the cut suits her, Roman looked at her lime it was the first time seeing her, she frowned
"what?" she asked
"I, you were not dressed like this when I saw you in the morning" Roman said closing the office door
"I went to change" she said, as Roman sat down, a knock came through
"mam our client is here" one of the designers said,
"I'm going to attend my client, I'll see you when I come back" zamsr said heading out, it's a triple story building, all glass inside, and it's not big, so you can see floor one from the top floors, Roman stood up and looked down the hall where the designs were, then he saw zamar hugging a person, but he couldn't see the person, so he stood there to see who his wife was hugging for that long.
"I believe you have come up with my style, you know me" the guy said
"gosh we grew up together" zamar said, they walked around the designs holding hands
"damn, this speaks to me, I love this one, I hope you have it here" he said
"we do, I'm afraid you might not live the color" zamar said
"let me see it babe" he said, they went to the boutique, we have it in lime, orange, sweet pink and yellow" she said, he laughed
"I'm not gay" he said
"I know babe, I'm afraid that's the colors we have for now" she said
"do straight guys buy them?" he asked
"yes" she said
"then I'll take lime, let me fit them" he said then went to the fitting room, Roman came
"who's he?" he asked
"a client" she said
"okay" he said still looking at her in the eyes
the guy came out, he saw Roman then he frowned
"Roman?" he asked
"yes, you are?" he asked
"dude, I'll let you figure that out, babe?" he said turning around
"you look smart, it suits you, but it's a little bit tight, take a bigger size" zamar said
"okay, bring it for me while I take this one off" he went back to the fitting room, zamar came back with a bigger size, Roman took it away from her
"let me take it to him" he said
"why?" zamar asked
"the guy is naked in there zamar" he said yanking the two piece away from her, he came out wearing the bigger size and it looked very good on him
"now we're talking" zamar said
"thank you, Roman nice to see you again after such a long time" he said
"good to see you too I guess" Roman said
"dude you still can't remember me? remember me?" he asked, Roman shook his head no
"zyn bruh, come on" he said, Roman remembered, he frowned even more, he looked at zamar then him
"so you chose this boutique, my wife's?" Roman asked
"yes, your wife and I come form far, married or not, we still have chemistry" he said winking, then he went to pay and left.
"chemistry?" Roman asked
"I don't know what he's talking about" she said
"I hope, let me take you out tonight" he said
"and the kids?" zamar asked
"I spoke to mom and yildiz since they're not going to school tomorrow, they promised to look after the rascals" he said
"okay" she said
"good, I'll see you later then" he said hugging her
later that day zamar drove home, Roman was asleep when she got home
"Roman?" she woke him up
"zamar what is it?" he asked
"you said we're going out" she reminded
"oh yes, let me get ready" he woke up, he got dressed but he was so tired or bored, he didn't even put effort in his attire, zamar also didn't, he drove them to a restaurant, there was no communication, zamar stood up and left him there, she called a cab, when she got back home the kids were still awake, she joined yildiz and the princess in the TV room and just cried
"mom what is it?" princess yildiz asked
she's 17 in matrix, Raymond is 15 in grade 10, halit, Nihal and zynep are 13 doing grade 8 then Hassan, Ali, emir and cerem are 10 in grade 6.
"your father" she couldn't finish the sentence, Roman soon walked in
"what is it zamar?" he asked, he shouted
"not in front of the kids Roman" the queen warned
"urg this is getting frustrating, when I make effort you don't appreciate it, when I don't bother you complain, what do you want from me woman?" he asked going up the stairs
"gosh you guys are hurting me" princes yildo said crying
"don't cry babe" the queen said
"what if you two get divorced? what's going to happen to us?" she asked, Roman wasn't gone far yet so he heard
"they will not get divorced okay?" the queen said looking at zamar
"yildiz babe if your father and I get divorced then you have your grandmother, and you're old enough to take care of yourself, and I'll always be here for you guys" zamar said, Roman walked down
"why are you talking about divorce? zamar are you trying to get my kids to hate me?" he asked
"what?" zamar
"are you turning my kids against me? why are you talking about divorce? you know how much this kids need you, you want to scare them and blame me so they can hate me?" he asked again
"i don't know what you're talking about Roman, we are talking about divorce because it's a possibility" she said
"a what? how did we get there?" he asked
