1. It's been seven years

Our first chapter is dedicated to all our friends 🧒👧🧑👩🥰

Note: Don't be confused with the flow of the story in this chapter. This chapter is about Anna and Steve in the present day. The story that we are waiting for is in the past somewhere? Read and stay tuned to find out 😉

Anna POV:

I feel the sun rays hurting my eyes but at the same time feel the cool morning breeze through the window, then I realized that it was already morning.

It would have been great if it was just a good morning but unfortunately it was a late morning!!!😠

I look to my other side to find the bed empty. Don't worry, it's not anything serious. It's just me searching for my perfect half who didn't wake me up. Note the sarcasm.

Where's Steve? I wondered but then, I look at the time on the side stand and realized it was totally a late morning. Shit! I am late for work.

I got up from bed in the speed of light, I washed up, that too in the speed of light (😂 hahaha it's true).

I took out my clothes from the wardrobe in a hurry. I settled for a white coat and a black skirt.

You know what, I love coats. It may be because of my profession but even if it was not, I would still love coats. I feel confident when I wear them. And last but not the least, my best weapon, high heels.🤩

I hurried downstairs. I can't help but smile when I saw my little angels, they are so cute.

Oh! Let me introduce my two cute kids who are God's best gift to us. They are Susie (6 years) and Adam (4 years).

I saw Steve preparing breakfast for the family. He is so good with kids. Sometimes I even feel helpless in front of him but at the same time I feel like the luckiest woman on earth. He is so perfect.

He was ready to go to work, he kissed the kids on their foreheads and bade goodbye.

Oh, you must be wondering why I don't get that goodbye kiss, right? 😂 It doesn't mean he doesn't love me, It's just that I told him not to do so (not a big fan of PDA).

I take a quick breakfast and the kids nanny arrived. I kissed my kids goodbye and left them with the nanny.

I ran after Steve and pouted angrily since he didn't wake me up this morning. I demanded an answer since I am late for work because of what he did. ( Literally, he did nothing wrong, I am just being spoiled 😋).

He smirked at me and say softly, 'Sweetheart, you were so cute while sleeping and you looked so tired so I couldn't bear to wake you up'.

I immediately gave in because he was so handsome. Even after all these years my heart still beats fast when I look him in the eyes (the heart is always honest, right?). I asked him to drop me off at work since my car was being repaired.

We set off in the car, I was completely clueless and sat there staring blankly. I heard someone calling me and it was Steve, he said 'Seatbelt'. He is always careful of safety, maybe because of his profession. I fasten my seatbelt.

It was a peaceful day with all the trees blooming with flowers as it was spring. On the way, when I look out from the car window, I saw a middle aged lady who reminded me of our nanny (Steve and mine) who loved us like her own children.

The very thought of her sudden death leaving us in this world is horrible. She was like a mother to us. She was a kind lady who taught us the values of lives. It is not completely wrong to say that we could become what we are today because of her.

I looked at Steve and asked, 'Dear, do you still miss Nanny May?' Its been 7 years since her death. He answered, 'Yes, she could never be replaced in our hearts. She brought us together, we will forever be grateful to her even if she is no more'.

What do you think of this chapter? Who is this Nanny May and how did she influenced them so much? Stay tuned to find out.

Stay tuned for the next chapter!!!😉
