Chapter 12: Chapter 12

Daniel's pov

I hurriedly entered the car and drove out of the school. I need to get white flowers.

Kira's pov

"We need to talk, Aunty." The lady sat down on the chair.

"What do you wanna talk about?" I creased my brow.

"Aunt kira, I'm just here to ask for forgiveness." She clasped her hands together.

"Forgiveness? I don't remember you offending me." I shook my head.

"Yes, I didn't offend you but......." She paused.

"My brother is the one who offended you."

"Your brother? I don't even know your brother." I answered in confusion.

Who's her brother?

"My brother, Daniel." She blurted.

I gasped and narrowed my gaze at her.

"The same Daniel? The Ceo of this company? He's your brother?" I blinked.

"Yes, he is. My elder brother. Please," She went on her knees immediately.

Oh goodness! I quickly got up from my seat and moved closer to her.

"Stand up! You don't have to knee down." I tried to made her stand up but she's too stubborn to stand up.

"Let me be like this. My brother has really suffered. He can't sleep without dreaming of you chasing him, trying to stab him.

He even ask for forgiveness in his sleep. Please, i know my brother has done a bad thing to you but do forgive him please." She begged and i couldn't help but watched her.

I sniffed. "Get up, Miss. Get up first." I helped her stand and took her back to her seat.

"Are you going to forgive him?" Daniel's sister asked.

I clutched my dress tight, trying not to shed tears again. No. I can't shed tears in front of her.

"Aunt, you're crying already." Her voice shook me. I raised my head, then used my hand to touch my face.

I was really crying. I'm crying without realizing.

"I'm sorry if your brother suffered so much," I began.

"You know what he did to me right?" I asked her.

She nodded her head In affirmation.

"If you were to be in my shoes, what Will you do?"

"Sincerely, I will make him suffer and it's going to take long before I forgive him." She answered with honesty in her eyes.

"Exactly what I'm trying to do with your brother. Miss, you don't know what Daniel made me go through? I went through hell.

I know I'm not the first to get raped neither am I the last. Daniel was my best friend, that i trusted him so well.

But he betrayed me. He betrayed the trust I have for him. Do you know I have two kids for him now?" I chuckled.

Her mouth hung opened but closed it in realization.

"You mean, you became pregnant and gave birth to......twins or what?" She asked, baffled.

"Yes, I gave birth to his children. I really suffered. I'm not trying to be wicked but I want him to suffer for what he did to me."

"Aunt Kira, I understand you so well. But he has suffer so more than you expected."

"What's your name?" I questioned.

"It's Amanda." She responded.

"Amanda, I know Daniel is suffering right now but somehow I feel he should suffer the more. No offense. But since you're here to do all this just because of your brother, I'm........" I paused.

Obviously, putting her in suspence.

"I'm going to think about it. Though it's going to take time but whatever my final response is, I'm going to send for you." I put on a wiry smile.

"Aunt Kira, okay, but please let your response be positive. I really starting to like you. You're really a strong woman. My brother really fucked up, I know" She smiled back.

"It's okay, Amanda." I hugged her and withdrew.

"Wait....can I see those little cuties? Please" She made a puppy eyes and pouted.

"Yeah. I'm actually going there to take them."

"Let's go together." She giggled and waited for me to do some things before I finally got ready to leave.

Amanda had brought her car which drove us to my children's school.

We got down from the car and I looked around for them.

"Where are they for goodness sake!" I palmed my face.

"Maybe they must have gone to play. Is it this place you do take them?" Amanda inquired and I nodded.

"Here they come." I heaved a sigh and spread my arms to welcome them.

"My honey pies" I said, softly.

"Momma! The competition is coming up on Thursday. I and Rhian will get the first position" Ryan squeaked and showed his small muscle.

"You're going to get the first position, don't worry." I smiled at the and faced Amanda.

"Amanda, are you alright?" I enquired when I saw her almost in tears.

"Yea, I'm fine. You took care for this children till they turned this cute. I'm still sorry for what he did to you." She concluded and sniffed.

She bent down and patted their hair.

"Mom, who's she?" Rhian asked.

Always asking questions.

"A sister and friend of mine." I replied.

"I like you." Rhian wiggled her body.

"Thanks, sweetie. You're beautiful and you are handsome." Amanda spoke, respectively to the kids.

"Shall we go home now?" Amanda beamed.

"Yes! I'm so hungry. Badly hungry."

Amanda dropped us home and went her way. She would have stayed a little while but said she has something to do.

I got to my doorstep and met a box. A big rectangular box.

"Who could have dropped this here?" I muttered and bent down to pick it.

I opened the box and saw white flowers, then a rose flower in the middle.

A note was stuck on the it and it reads;

'Smile. Even if it just for today, smile. Smile for your kids. Smile everyday, Kira.' I read aloud and wondered.

"Who dropped the flowers here?" I looked around.

"So romanitic" Ryan giggled.

Hey!! It's romanism" Rhian tried to correct her twin but they ended up arguing with each other.

"Sweeties, it's called Romantic." I corrected.

"The man is really romantic" The two laughed and did a high five.

This two are up to something.

"Do you know anything about this?" I stared at them, suspiciously.

"No, mom" They both said in unison.

Rhian blinkled while Ryan pouted.

"Alright! Let's go inside"
