Now And Then

Epilogue

I woke up from the sudden movements under the duvet.

"Happy birthday mummy!" Angelo, Alonzo, and Amethyst crawled out from the duvet.

"Oh my little ones! Thank you so much!" The three of them kissed my cheeks one by one.

"Mumma..." Amethyst handed me a green card with their handwritings on it.

"Aw, thank you so much baby! Who helped you with this?" I sat them one by one in front of me.

"Peanut!" Alonzo grinned and pointed his finger to his brother.

"Really my little man?" I tousled Angelo's hair.

"Yes mummy!" He smirked.

"By the way where's daddy?" I asked.

"He's at the beach mum." Angelo answered.

"And why?" I furrowed my eyebrows.

7 am? What would Simon do at the beach this morning?

"Happy birthday mummy... Happy birthday mummy..." Simon went inside the room with a cake on his hands.

"Happy birthday dear mummy... Happy birthday to you!" The four of them sang along.

"Blow mummy!" Angelo and Amethyst said in unison.

I blew my 28 candle and motioned Simon to sit beside us.

"Happy 28th babe." Simon pecked my lips.

"Ew!" Our three kids said in unison as they covered each other's eyes.

"Come here you little naughties!" Simon and I tickled the kids.

"Mumma stop!" Alonzo held my hands.

"Daddy! My tummy!" Amethyst screamed as she laughed contiguously.

"Stop it! Mummy and daddy!" Angelo cackled.

The five of us laid on the bed as we calmed down ourselves.

"Dad? Can we play at the beach?" Amethyst asked.

"Ask your mum." Simon smirked at me.

"Mummy please?" The three of the pleaded.

"Just promise me one thing..." I smirked back at Simon.

I motioned my kids to come near to me and I whispered our plans to their ears.

"Okay mummy!" Alonzo giggled.

"It's better be not a joke on me Delly..." Simon narrowed his eyes and smirked.

"You'll see..." I grinned.

We all changed our pj's to swimwear.

♥♥♥

"Simon put sunblock on the kids, don't stay too long under the sun."

"Yes your highness..." Simon went behind me and wrapped his arms around my waist.

"What are the plans for tonight?" I can feel Simon smirking as he kissed my neck.

"We're going to have dinner outside." I run my fingers across his arms.

"After that?" Simon kissed my shoulder.

"Sleep, we're going to sleep Konecki." I chuckled.

"No, I have something for you later." He lightly blew on my ear as I felt his hands traveled below my belly.
