My twins made me a billionaire

I couldn't wait for the next flight to San Francisco. My bags were all packed, and I would want to make it a surprise for the love of my life.

"Good morning, ma! How was your trip?" A smiley hostess came to receive me from the airport, and her smile was welcoming and overwhelming.

I looked at her with my cheeks elated, and all I could say was, "I can't wait to see my husband, by the way I admire your dressing." She looked at me and smiled, with her collar shirt well-fitted on her.

"Thank you so much ma'am for the compliment and that's so great to hear! Let me help the kids with their bags," she said and aided me with the bags in my hands.

My twins turned two years of age, and all I could see them take the look after their father. Each time I missed him back in France, I would always look at them and smile glamorously.

Right from France, I hired a nanny, and she wouldn't want to let go of me, but she insisted on coming home with me. I was thinking of how I might need her, so I said yes to her demand, and my kids would be in safe hands if myself and Adam were off to work.

In the hotel room.

"Mommy, I need water," Katty said, pointing to the bottled water laying on the table with her pink baby eyes and her chuckling cheeks.

Alice moved to the table as I was about to grab the water. "Don't worry, madam, it's my duty. Let me handle it."

A bright smile on my face said it all on how I had found the precious stone of humans after my family had abandoned me.

I looked at her and my mind ran through Adam and how he was kind to me the very first time we met. "Thank you, Alice but we need to talk now."

I sat up while Katty giggled with the water, and Natty aided her as they began to play at one side of the bed.

I tapped on the bed. "Sit, Alice."

I looked into her eyes, and there was a huge silence.

Her eyelids read the lines of worries, but my smile brought her out of her wrong imagination.

"It's nothing to panic about, Alice. I want to surprise my husband, and this time you will be the one to handle my kids when I am away," I said, as I rolled my eyes and my lips read the lines.

She drifted closer to me. "Ma, I tend not to understand your point. Isn't he aware he has kids?" she asked, with her eyeballs in cuberome worries as she kept and eye on Natty and Katty.

I held her hands. "I didn't do it for the benefit of myself alone. He wouldn't want me to stay as long as I stayed back in France, and the money I made was sent to him to build up our factory. I am sure we have something to fall back on now."

A smile engrossed my face, and I looked up with glitters in my eyeballs and butterflies in my belly and crazy imaginations ran through my mind of the first hug I would getting from my man.

She looked at me and nodded her head. "I will always be by your side, ma. Ask me to do anything, I am always with you at all times," she replied, and tears were almost dripping down my cheeks.

I combed her into my arms and gave her a big hug that lasted for a few minutes.

Finally, the hidden tears came along to sweeten the moment.

Alice giggled and wiped my tears.

Her love and care made it easy for me to raise Katty and Natty. I have seen her as the sister sent directly from heaven, unlike the wayward stepsister that won't stop sleeping with almost all the men in San Francisco.

The early sunlight groomed my eyelids and reflected on my face deeply that I couldn't keep myself back in dreamland.

Guess whom I was dreaming of?

Of course, no other person than the very love of my life and the father of my twins.

I dreamt of how he welcomed us and took us out for a long shopping spree.

Right from my dream, I smiled into reality and found Natty and Katty holding each edge of the curtain and smiling at me.

"Mommy, wake up, your alarm is ringing," they called out.

I feel they had always been sensitive to timing because this has always been how I would wake them up from sleep back in France.

I smiled and wore the blanket off my body, stood up, and sat on the sofa.

They rushed to my arms and walked into a big hug until I broke the silence to them.

"Daddy will be coming over today."

At once, they both released me and hopped around the hotel room, singing, "Daddy is coming! Daddy, we want to see you!"

The joy in their voices and the laughter on their faces kept me curious about how surprised Adam would be after seeing his first fruits.

Would he be pissed when he finds out?

How would he react?

Should I call him now?

Thoughts kept running through my mind, and I smiled at my kids as they went into their bags, trying to look for what to wear for Daddy's arrival.

Alice kept an eye on them, and I held the cellphone.

Adam hadn't been able to reach me for twenty-four hours, and I knew how worried he might be.

"Sorry, darling, I didn't mean to keep you in the dark. You deserve all the surprises in the whole wide world, and I wouldn't want to mess it up," I whispered to myself and pinged his line.

My mind wavered in worries, and my heart longed after him, even though I had made plans to go see him finally today.

"Alice, kindly dress up both of them. I will be back with their dad in no time. I need to shower and make the next move."

I rushed into the bathroom and jumped into the shower, humming sounds of love and dancing with my music until Alice called out-

"Madam, you have a call."
