" who are you "

As soon both of them said those words I felt a pang in my chest , but I quickly composed myself 

" I am your father Dominic Alaric Valdez,  and those five are your brothers "  I said

"  our father is dead " both of them replied simultaneously in a monotonous tone , and as soon as I heard that I felt like my heart stopped they never , even knew I was alive ?

" your mother never told you about
me " ,
" no she didn't "  both of them replied together again i am  not gonna lie it's quite creepy, not only this they look exactly like each other and then I finally looked at them clearly  both of them have my eyes which warmed my heart none of my kids got my eye's  but everything  else in them screams about Audra both of them  have red hair , pale skin and freckles on their nose , blue eyes Amirah looked shorter in height  5 ' 3 and petite,  I guess she got this from Audra whilst Amir is quite tall probably  5'11 and a athletic body and I knew he got this from me and now as I look at them I couldn't believe I made half of this especially my princess she looks too adorable and innocent,  don't get me wrong  I love my sons but as soon I saw her I knew I would do anything to protect her and by the looks on my son's face I knew they were thinking the same thing

Then we heard someone clearing their throat,  there was a lady probably in her forties  , and she felt like someone I saw before , but couldn't put a finger on who she was .

" I think you both need some answers now " she spoke while looking at Amir and Amirah

" how's  this possible aunt mariè mom told us our father died when we were not even born " Amir spoke making me think why would Audra do this , I know after what happened it wasn't easy for her to stay but it made me upset she just didn't kept my kids away , she even didn't tell them anything about us , my thoughts were cut off by the mariè

" I know kids but you need to trust me , he is your father and I know you are upset right now but trust me she had her own reasons,  she gave me letter to read it to you incase anything like this happens " she whispered the last sentence pointing to the letter in her hand and I am getting more curious now .

" Wh..hattt , how.... wh...yyyy " Amirah slutterd with her voice cracking with tears in her eyes and Amir had the same reaction,  seeing this just made my heart broke all I wanted to do was just hug them and tell them everything will be fine but I knew I would overwhelme them so I just stood there doing nothing and for the first time Dominic Valdez felt helpless .

" I would read it to you guys " mariè spoke and they just nodded their head ans she started reading the letter 

To my prince and princess, 
If mariè is reading this letter to you , then I am probably dead now , first I want to tell you both that I love you both more then anything , nothing can change my love for you both , you both were my light , my only hope to live, even when you both couldn't even speak , by now you would have probably met your father and brother's  , I am sorry my babies to keep you away from them but I want you both to trust me I had my reasons that you can't know right now but promise me you will wait for it and you will get all your answers till then please be patient for me , wait for the right time  as I know amirah you will try to find those reasons my curious little mouse but baby it's my last wish for you both to wait for the right time to find all the answers and give your father and brother's a chance they never knew about you both , and I know they will always love you both unconditionally  and I hope you will forgive me for keeping you away from our family .
