ANASTASIA
When I woke up, I was still cuddled in Xavier's arms. I tried to wake him up softly.
"Wake up, love"
"Hmmm...don't want to...today's Sunday"
"Yeah...but wake up. Mom and dad are waiting for us downstairs."
"You go, I'll come later"
"As you wish, sleepyhead"
I got up, took bath and went down.
"Where's Xavier?" Mom asked.
"He's still sleeping"
"What a surprise, he never sleeps this late." Dad said, his eyes wide open.
"Really?!"
"Yeah, these years he never slept this peacefully. You surely are a miracle. His life was all fast and at a speed, never taking a break. But since you entered his life, his life is slow and settled." Mom said smiling.
"Come have breakfast, dear" Dad said.
"Where's Noah?"
"Uhh...he went to the company early today"
"I think I'm getting surprises too" I said chuckling.
"For sure!" Mom said.
We had breakfast peacefully, laughing.
XAVIER
When I went down, I saw Mom, Dad and Anastasia eating and laughing. My family was smiling once again. God, thank you.
I remembered I had to talk to my family, but I think it isn't needed anymore. So I called my manager.
"Hello...sir?"
"Yes, I know the name of the person who pushed Anastasia off the stairs"
"Oh...."
"It's Brittany, ask her to come to my office at 8 am"
"Okay sir. Anything else?"
"Did you knew about this woman? That she pushed Anastasia off the stairs? Tell me now, or I'll surely come to know later, and the result will not be good"
"Ye...yes sir I knew" he confessed guiltily.
"Why didn't you tell me then?"
"Because Miss Brittany ordered me not to, or she'll tell you about my secret affair with an office's employee"
"Do you work for me or Miss Brittany?"
"You sir, but I was afraid you'll fire me once you know I'm dating someone from the office"
"Well, late, but you've been truthful, s I won't fire you, and you can date the person, only if it doesn't affect the office work. And remember to maintain a professional relationship in the office with your partner"
"Okay, thank you sir, thank you very much!"
I hanged up the phone, I too was in a relationship with my employee. So I couldn't punish others for having a relationship with an employee. It was only fair.
I went to have breakfast, hoping to have Anastasia there, but she wasn't. So I had my breakfast in a high pace, and went to my room. And there she was, sitting in the balcony, earphones in her ear and phone in her hands. Her hands her on her stomach.
I went to her.
"What are you listening?"
"Music, but good music, for the baby"
"Oh really? You could've asked me, I would've sang for the baby" I said smirking.
"Have you heard you voice while you sing? It's horrible. The babies will cry listening to your song" She laughed.
I laughed too.
"Babies, you're dad's a great singer, but your mama doesn't approve of it. you both come out fast, so you can approve it"
"Xavier, it isn't even one month yet" she said chuckling.
"I know..."
"Many months to go, love. I'll start getting fat soon. And start craving weird things. You'll be the one bringing these weird things to me"
"Sure I will!"
