Home is where you are.

Luis saw his family descending the stairs, they came in the lounge and sat on the sofa. Luis was brimming with the happiness he can not define at the moment in words. He felt complete somehow.

Luis asked the children, if they want to eat something and they nodded. Luis laughed and ordered the meal for the children to be served immediately.

After five minutes, all the dishes were served in the lounge, the children dig in as soon as they saw the food. When suddenly a soft voice came, "How is the food little darlings? I cooked them personally."

All the children's head snapped towards the voice, and they were happy to see their Grandmother standing in the hallway, they jumped down the sofa and went running towards their granny and hugged her lovingly. All of them echoed together, "We missed you grandma."

"Hahaha, I missed you to my bundles of joy," said *Aleesa Dain (Aleesa is the wife of Luis and mother of Orhan, so she is the granny of the five children).

"I am so happy to see you all here," said Aleesa while nodding towards her son and daughter-in-law. "I am happy that you decided to come back and told the children about the truth."

"Mom, the children knew who they are," said Eleonora.

"What, who told them?" asked Aleesa.

"Your only love and My old man," said Orhan.

"What why did you?, well now what has been done is done." said looking at her husband.

"My love if it would be on our son, he would've taken forever, and I don't want my children to be away from me for so long so its best that I told them," said Luis.

The whole family chatted happily. The house was filled with giggling of kids. All the house staff was also happy seeing their employers in a happy mood.

When suddenly Orhan asked his children, "Will you miss your Home?"

The children shook their heads and said, "Our Home is where you are mamma, papa."

Owen chimed in and said, "Yes, home is where we all are together."

"We love you Grandma, Grandpa." Said all five of them in unison.

Just like this they lived harmoniously every passing day. The children were geniuses. They were homeschooled from a young age and now they were levels ahead of children of their age. Owen has a brilliant mind in business management and he also wanted to join the army and serve his country, Mirabella was a great fashion designer, she also studied business like Owen, while Silas has a love for technology and wanted to become an engineer, and if not Engineer he wanted to become a chef.

And when it came to Anas and Aergul Nada, their ambitions were very high, Anas can understand Business management, as well he has a profound knowledge of technology, then he also wanted to join armed forces just like his father but he opted for medical. While Aergul Nada has interests in many fields just like her brother, she liked fashion designing Aergul being a girl also wanted to go in the army to serve her country, and her family also supported her in this because there was not much women power in their army so they were proud of their youngest child for having such a passion, but just like her brother she also opted for medical.

The children were growing up to be lovely adults, their grandparents, and parents tried to teach them the best so they can become good citizens.

Time passed by quickly and soon It was time for Owen and Mirabella to go for the university entrance exams. Both opted for The Imperial University, as it was the eldest and best University in the country.

On the day of the results. All family members were sitting in the lounge, when Mr. Aurbery came with two envelopes stamped with the Royal stamp of Imperial University. Luis received the envelopes and passed one to Orhan. They both opened the envelopes at once and looked at each other. Owen and Mirabella wore a relaxed upfront but deep down they were sweating due to nervousness.

Luis looked at them then at the other people present in the lounge. Then he looked at Orhan and both of them smiled. Orhan said, "Bella, you got the invention from imperial university to join them at the first of the coming month. You got an A, My butterfly."

Then Luis looked towards Owen with an expressionless and cold face, Owen sweated looking at his grandpa's face, Luis said, "Brat I didn't expect this from you, you, how could you?"

"Grandpa, I did my best, there must be something wrong with it," said Owen.

"There is nothing wrong with it, My Lion, You also got accepted and that also with an A, just like your sister you are also given admission in the Genius's class. Hahaha This class is the most difficult to get in but you and your sister are accepted, no one in the history who was admitted in this class was from the same family. I am proud of both of you."

Owen was stupefied but then he laughed and started hugging his younger brothers, who were also very happy for their brother. Aergul Nada came to Mirabella and hugged her tightly and congratulated her sister. Their mother and Grandma also felt proud and congratulated both children.

At night they enjoyed a feast with their families. Eleonora's father was also present there. Eleonora's mother died when she was young so she and her brother grew up without motherly love but when Eleonora married Orhan, she and her brother got so much love from Aleesa that they forgot that she is not their mother. Her brother Aman Ayer the Current King loved Eleonora more than his own life and his wife Crystal Ayer also loved her sister-in-law more like a mother or an elder sister.

Eleonora's Father Noah Ayer was sitting with his best friend, Luis Dain and they were happily chatting about the things no one knows but them.

The atmosphere was so lovely. Everyone was happy. Anas and Aergul were busy with their things as they never liked to talk or socialize very much. Owen and Mirabella were talking with their cousin Alan and Ava. Alan and Ava are Aman Ayer's children.

While Silas was busy in the kitchen experimenting on food with the house ladies (ie. Aleesa, Eleonora, and Crystal.) and his best friend Ahad who is the third child of Aman and crystal.

It was past midnight and the house was still hustling and bustling with cheerful noises. Mr. Aurbery and John came and ask for their orders, Luis told them to come and sit with them, they were accustomed to such polite behavior of their employers, they knew that Luis always treated them as family. Mr. Aurbrey told the staff to retire for the night and then he came back and asked for further instructions.

Silas suggested that they should play pass the parcel. Everyone agreed and they sat in a big circle. They started passing the pillow to each other and Mr. Aurbery sat facing his back to the crowd and played the music.

Mr. Aurbery stopped the music and then turned around the pillow was in Luis's hands. now came the time for giving tasks. Everyone started discussing which task should they give to Luis. In the end Anas spoke up and said, " Propose Grandma again, just like how you proposed her back in the days."

Luis started walking towards his wife and out of nowhere laid on his face on the ground, everyone was dumbfounded, and then Luis said, "Hey, pretty lady, will you be my Queen?, Will you become the only woman after my mom in front of whom I can fall like this?"

"Yes, why not," answered Aleesa.

Everyone clapped. Mirabella asked, " Grandpa is this how you proposed to Grandma?"

"Yes, the same way," answered Luis.

"Cliche," said Owen, Anas, and Aergul Nada together.

"You brats, shut up."

Then Nada said, "Grandma how can you say yes to such a boring proposal?"

"Because I love him, baby," said Aleesa.

Hearing his wife's words, Luis' eyes glimmered just like that of a puppy who got his favorite treat. Everyone laughed seeing his expression. The game continued. soon everyone's turn came and they got eliminated, only Anas, Aergul, and their father Orhan remained.

Anas and Aergul whispered to their father, "Papa please take this turn we don't want to do anything, you know we don't like to. Please"

"You both are shy," asked Orhan.

"No," shouted both.

"Then focus," said Orhan

Now it was Anas and Aergul's turn because they both were holding the pillow when the music stopped. They both glared at Mr. Aurbery, Mr. Aurbery brushed his nose and looked away.

"Okay, what do we have to do?" asked Anas.

Everyone thought and said, "You both like music so play something for the end of this night."

Anas and Aergul looked at each other and nodded.

Anas took the *mandolin and handed it to Aergul. She started playing beautiful and calm notes. While Anas started singing.

"Life is hard, or so crazy, don't have a word to say to it,

But when I see you happy, I smile to it,

I am not perfect and I know it, But you make me the best.

you once taught me that,

Love conquers heart and Hate destroys it,

But one thing is sure that you are no good,

This life, my dreams, vanished before me."

Aergul sang the next part,

"Yes I cheated you, so what, it was for your good,

You'll never ever know the truth of life,

Cause it is harsh and painful, but no you'll be free,

I'll save you from the deepest scars, I'll be there,

I'll shelter you from the shreds of life, Trust me or you'll hate me.

no matter what life held out you and me be together,

Forever and ever and ever... my love."

When they finished everyone was crying, the deep meaning in their words was hard to understand but the intensity of their voices made everyone shed tears.

*(Mandolin is an instrument similar to a guitar but it is smaller in size).
