Chapter 68

Anna looked at her husband's confused state, she smiled at how well she had been able to get him to take her inside, now she doesn't think anything was going to make him say No to her the moment he was back.

"I have a gift for you"

She opened her eyes wide with excitement. It has been ages since he last bought her a gift, she didn't know what his gift was and she wasn't going to guess. She just smiled in anticipation.

"Close your eyes"

He was serious about the gift and here Anna was thinking he was joking.

She immediately closed her eyes and waited for his next command but then he opened the door kissed her on the lips and ran out.

That was enough to tell Anna that he just wanted to escape from her and the only thing he could use was a gift for her, just like he did immediately after Angel was born.

She had wanted him to help look after Angel as his mother and her mother had left and their daughter kept waking up every now and then to suck.

Andrew had promised to stay and help her so she waited for him in the living room, but then he came asking her to close her eyes that he had a gift that would help ease her pains a d stress.

Anna would give anything at that time to enjoy some stress free day from the crying Angel but the moment she closed her eyes he opened the door and left the house telling her that was his surprised.

At first Anna didn't like what he did at all but soon enough she got used to his pranks and now he had used it again so he could escape.

"You are so dead Mr Andrew!

Andrew met with his siblings as they started leaving one after the other.

"Take care dear, I am going to come to the house to see you okay?

Peter was acting unlike himself since the news. It is funny how bad news can bring out the best in a person.

"Dad said you are both travelling"

He added and Andrew nodded his head like a baby.

Well then call me the moment you are back, I would love to come see you.

"You really don't have to"

Andrew tried to say but he held his hands up to stop him.

You are my little brother, and no matter how much you have grown I am still your older brother.

No matter how many kids you have or will have I am still your older brother and you can cry to me;

Andrew didn't like the last part because it felt like he was talking about the problem he was facing with his wife as regards not having a child.

"Maybe when I am back, it will be your turn to travel?

"We have travelled and we are both okay and I am fine. I am really not worried about that.

Andrew moves closer and hugged his brother thereby stoping him from talking and so did every one of them one by one till Petranilla came with Angel and it was the hardest goodbye ever for Andrew and Anna who had surfaced behind him.
