Chapter One hundred and two

    Tears filled my eyes as I looked down at my kids, who were staring at me with sadness in their eyes. I felt so much pity for them that I didn''t realize


    when I broke down in tears.


    "Mum." my daughter, and the first twin said, with her soft low voice.


    "Oh, yes? What is it Gavina?” I asked, quickly wiping the tears off my face.


    "Why are you crying?" She asked, and Iughed forcefully, shaking my head.


    "I wasn''t crying. Gavina. Why would I cry?" I asked, and pecked her forehead.


    Gavin, the boy and the second twin, held her hand and shook his head. "Mum, please, don''t cry."


    "I''m not crying. I promise," I said, smiling. I felt tears already welling in my eyes, but I tried hard to keep them in. I had to pretend that I was okay and


    bottle in my emotions in front of them.


    "Mum, we are sorry,” Gavina said, and my heart nearly melted


    "Why? Why would you be sorry? What did you two de wrong? You both didn''t do anything, so you have no right to be sorry, okay,” I said, wiping the


    tears which were dropping down their eyes.


    "No, Mum. We are sorry. Because we are sick, we made you worried and depressed.” Gavina said, sniffing.


    "Look at how pale and old your face looks now. Because of us, you changed. We are sorry, Mum," Gavin said, and the tears ran down my eyes. but I


    quickly wiped them off.


    "Why are you doing this? Making me tear up unnecessarily. Now, look here, It''s not your fault that my face is like this. It''s just that I forgot to put on


    some makeup. Furthermore, you guys don''t need to get worried anymore. Very soon, you will be healed," I smiled, and rubbed their little noses.


    "Really?" Gavina asked, and I chuckled, nodding my head.


    "So, I brought dinner for you to eat. Please. you have to eat. They say if you don''t eat, you won''t get healed faster. You want to get better, right?" I


    asked, giving a bright smile as I brought the tes of food to their faces.


    "Yes," They both answered, and groaned.


    "Sit up now, so that you can eat," I said, and helped them sit down.


    "Mum, we aren''t hungry. We actually don''t want to eat," Gavin said. shaking your head.


    "Why not? Don''t you want this sickness to leave your body on time? Do as I have asked, Gavin. Please open your mouth," I said. bringing the filled


    spoon to his face.


    He shook his head, folding his lips tightly.


    "I''ming back to you, Gavin," I said, then faced his sister. "Let''s feed Gavin first. Open your mouth wide for me."


    She shook her head and folded her lips tightly. "No!" She mumbled.


    I sighed deeply and kept the spoon down. "Why not? You both should eat something, please! That''s the one way you can survive and get well."


    "But Mum, we aren''t hungry. We are too tired to eat anything," Gavina whispered


    "Please, take a few spoonful for mother, huh? I''m begging you,” I pleaded, looking as innocent and sad as possible.


    The twins exchanged nces, nodded their heads, and faced me. "We will do as you have said, mother,” Gavin said.


    “Really?” I chuckled. "Atst! Open your mouth now... Ah!" I widened my mouth. bringing the spoon to his mouth.


    Gavin sighed and slightly pushed the spoon away from his face.


    "What is it again?” I asked, exhausted already.


    "We will eat, but on one condition. Mother." Gavin said.


    "Huh?" I sounded surprised and confused. "Okay then. What could that be? Tell me."


    “Father will be the one to feed us." Gavin said, and Gavina nodded.


    "What?" Iughed. "Why? Are you tired of your mother?”


    "No, not that. It''s just that we miss him," Gavina said, her voice barely a whisper, and her eyes looking downwards like she was shy.


    "You miss him?" I was puzzled.


    "Yes," They both answered.


    “It has beerra very long time since


    we saw him here. You are the only


    one whes for us and takes


    care oft us. We haven''t seen him for


    a long) time,’ Gavina said, and bit


    my-lower lip hard. Content. belongs


    to“ -


    She was right. How did I ever miss that?


    "Mum, has Dad forgotten us?" Gavin asked, and my heart skipped.


    What?" Itighed, shaking my head.


    "Why? Why would your father ever


    forget. you? He is just busy at the’


    office. Don''t tell me you have


    forgotten that he is the Lyean King?"

    "But do those reasons prohibit him from seeing us? I thought he would at least see us for a minute. It has been quite a while already," Gavina said


    "And I miss him. I want to see him. If I see him today, I promise to eat everything in that ce,” Gavin said, as tears ran down his eyes.


    Even Gavina was crying. "Me too, mother,” I said, and wiped their tears.


    “Let me call him now,” I muttered, and stood up


    "Alright," They nodded.


    I got to my feet. waved to them. and they did the same. When I got out of the room, I rested on the door with my back and slowly went down


    Tears ran down my eyes, and I covered my mouth so that I wouldn''t sob loudly. After crying for about five minutes, I went to the bedroom and didn’t


    see Oregon.


    "He''s probably still at the office,” I whispered, rolling my eyes, which suddenly met with the wall clock.


    “It''s quitete already though. What is he still doing there by this time?" I said, and gave him a call with my phone, but he didn''t pick it up.


    I hurried to théeffice, but he wasn''t


    there. I was.abit worried as I made
