In the same hospital that Anna was 5 months was now there again but this time about to push out her babies. Jones was right beside her holding her had while he mother was on the other side caressing her shoulders and praying silently for a safe delivery.
"Okay...she is 9cm dialed, I can see the babies head" one of the doctors spokem
"Now Mrs Annabelle I am going to need to push really hard" another doctor spoke. Gathering all the strength she could get, she pushed.
"Ahhhhhh" she screamed and after a few more pushes, the whole room was filled with cries. Yep Alex and Alexa were born.
They were the cutest babies ever born. They both had hazel brown eyes like their mother but every one knew that they mostly looked like their dad. Every body gathered around the babies almost even forgetting Annabelle. She was really happy and tears of joy began to flow down her cheeks. Somewhere deep in her mind, she hoped Drey was there but alas! He wasn't.
.
The wedding preparations were going on and being a new mother, of two in fact, was making things a little hectic for Annabelle but having her mon around was the best. She was so helpful and always there along with her brother, Nancy and the love of her life, Jones.
"Mama, thank you so much, you are the best grandma ever. Now I have to check on the decor with Nancy, she said she was having a little problem talking to the interior decorators. I will go check if everything thing is fine" Anna said handing her babies to Ryan of course before giving them a kiss.
"Okay, where did you keep the feeding bottle?" Ryan asked.
"Uhmm...it should be in the kitchen. I will go get it" with that. Anna left to the kitchen and came back with two feeding bottles in her hand and gave her mother a kiss before leaving to the venue.
.
"Nancy what's up with the decorator"
"I have no idea, all of a sudden he said he does now want to work for us" Nancy said a bit frustrated having Anna frown as to why and interior decorator did not want to decorate for them .
"Let me speak to him myself, where is he?"
"He should be getting ready to leave. Probably outside now"
"Okay" Anna said making her way to where the decorator guy was standing.
"Hello sir. I am Annabelle Woods, the bride to be. Please may I know why you don't want to work with us?"
"I dont have to give you a reason. Now if you will excuse me, I am trying to pack my tools and-" he couldn't complete his sentence because he saw Jones behind Anna and he had a look on his face that could almost pierce someone to death. Anna then noticed the man looking at something with fear then she followed his line of sight to see Jones. Then with a swift move Jones changed his grave look into a smile. For a moment Anna was trying to understand what happened but she was too stressed about the wedding plans to think about anything right then.
"Honey. He says he doesn't want to work for us anymore and I have tried to explain to him that our wedding is in two weeks but he is really persistent" Jones then looked at the man and said.
"Is that true Mr. Patrick" Jones said.
"uhh- i- n- no sir, I was just joking with your Fiancee" the man said laughing nervously but beneath those laughs was serious fear. He could never forget the encounter he had with the man in font of him..Mr Jones he was ruthless. When he realized that the person wedding was Mr Jones, he was all of a sudden scared and was ready to leave as soon as he could but he was too late.
Anna was still confused at what had just happened. Was he really joking, because it didn't look like a joke to her. Infact the man looked like he had seen a ghost when he saw their wedding flyer. She was still trying to understand what was wrong but she didn't have time to think about that.
"Mr. Patrick you play a lot don't you?"Jones said laughing. It didnt look like an ordinary laugh. It looks really devilish.
Anna left the two men and went to join Nancy with the other preparations.
"wow I never expected to see you so soon Patrick. ohh that reminds me, how is your hand doing" Just when Jones said that, Patrick remembered the horrifying moment where Jones used an iron on his left hand all because he didn't get the right color of flowers for his last wedding. Yep that was definitely not the first time he was getting married.
Don't look so sad. Just make sure you get the right colors this time and I promise, you would be fine besides I don't even have an iron with me but I do have a pot of hot oil just in case you mis-behave. Must I add, my fiancée must not hear of this . If not.... I think you know the rest he said with a smile and left.
The wedding preparations were going just fine and the days were getting nearer. Alex and Alexa were about 3 weeks old already and Annabelle could not stop being so proud of herself. She was so surprised that she made it through the thick times and finally her life was beginning to make sense...but that was only going to last for a short while....
