“What about him? Everything ended with the end of that contract marriage. He had a girlfriend then, and I’m sure he would have married her and would have kids with her by now. Moreover, my babies are not but the regret of him, so their existence shouldn’t be his concern.”
A part of me knew that his words and his action never matched each other.
Once all the arrangements were made, we headed back to our rooms. Both the kids were sleeping, so we decided to surprise Colton early morning.
“Good night, sweethearts.” I kissed their foreheads before sleeping in the middle of them.
****
Late-night !!
My hands, as usual, went on the bed to check on my babies, but my eyes were wide open when I realized that they both were missing.
Where did they go?
I quickly checked the bathroom, but they were not there. And then I ran out of the room in a panic, hoping them to be near Eden and Arya, but my leg halted when I heard their low voice from the kitchen. I couldn’t help but peek to see what they were doing in the kitchen at this moment.
I found a chair near the fridge, and Calvin’s hand and mouth were covered with creams of the cake while Colton was glaring at him.
‘Don’t tell me that Clavin ate the chocolate cake which we have brought for Colton’s birthday surprise plan.’
But the things were clearing looking in that way.
“I’m sorry. I really wanted to eat that chocolate cake.”, Clavin apologized, showing his puppy eyes to his seven minutes older brother.
“You shouldn’t eat the chocolate cake that mom got for me because It’s my birthday today, not yours. Mom will have brought a cake for your birthday too.”, Colton said, crossing his arms around his chest, showing that he was mad.
“I know, but I’m sorry.”, Calvin apologized again. “I’m sorry. Please don’t be mad.” Tears started brimming in his eyes.
Aww! My poor baby.
I would get another cake. I was about to step in between to convince Colton to forgive his brother, but what he did make me proud of him.
He reached forward and hugged his younger brother.
“It’s okay, Calvin. I’m not mad at you. Mom will buy a chocolate cake again.”, He said, cooing to his brother. “Let’s eat the cake together.”, he said.
I quickly hid behind the wall and saw Clavin standing on the chair again and took out the 5% eaten cake from the upper chamber. He gave it to Colton to hold it, and then he stepped down from the chair.
Placing the cake on the floor, both brothers started eating and wasting the cake with their hands because it was impossible for them to reach the plates and spoon with their tiny heights.
My cute little cake thieves.
“Ahem, Ahem,” I cleared my throat, making them realize that I was there.
“Mom! Mom!” I heard two voices overlapping each other, and the color of their face had been drained, knowing that they were caught red-handed.
“First, happy birthday, Colton,” I said with a serious tone.
“Thank you, Mom.”, he replied, getting scared that I might scold him or both of them.
“And second, may I join you two in eating the cake?” I asked with a mischievous smile.
“Yes! Yes!”

Thank you for reading!!
Sophia’s POV
“These gifts are from dad?” Colton asked when I showed him his birthday surprises that we had packed last night.
“Yes!”
“Yeeee!!!! It means that you will send a gift for me too.”, Calvin said, getting excited. “I hope he will get me a Micro Kickboard Maxi Deluxe and Kids Selfie Camera.”, he added in a dreamy tone.
Thankfully, I knew what he wanted, so I had already bought his birthday gifts when I had purchased them for Colton.
I had observed that Calvin had an interest in taking pictures and exploring new things because he always sat beside me to learn how I upload online training on knitting over all the social networks or whenever I edit those videos. I was sure that he barely understood how all these things work, but he watched them with total interest.
While Colton was like his father, more into reading comics and technology.
I saw Colton opening his gifts that he was assuming from his dad and found Kindle Oasis 10th Generation. A small smile appeared on his lips when he saw it, and then he opened his other gift from fake dad, i.e., ME, of course, and found a tablet.
“But I needed a laptop.”, Colton said, looking at the tablet.
“On your fifth birthday, sweetheart. And just don’t misuse the tablet, or I won’t waste a second to take it back.”, I warned.
“Sure, Mom.”, Colton replied before dropping a bomb on me, “Can you please call dad so that I could thank him?” he asked, and trust me, I lost my voice.
“I… Didn’t … I tell you that your dad is on a secret mission without any gadgets? And no one can reach him in anyways.”, I replied nervously.
“Then how did he send these gifts for me?” Colton asked, arching his brow.
Damn! His father’s expression.
Both of my babies look so much like him. I wouldn’t be shocked when they would almost take over their father’s facial structure by their teenage.
“We can’t reach him in anyways, but he can reach us because he knows our address.” I cooked up another fake story.
Where the hell was Eden and Arya?
“Does he love us, Mom?” he asked, and for the first time in my life, I had seen a glimpse of DOUBT in his eyes.
“Of course, dad loves us, Colt. What kind of question is this?” Clavin replied confidently. “Now, come on! Let’s check your other gifts together.”, he added, which somehow diverted Colton’s mind for a while, but I knew if things kept going on in this way, then before the fifth birthday, Colton would somehow catch my lie.
