Tales Of Love

“You know what, Nancy and I will leave as well with our Son. I wish Lisa would breed you a whole lot of babies so that you can conveniently live your lives” Mile concluded and placed his hand on his wife’s shoulders, leading her in.

“Mile, stop right there. You are the eldest Son and a Senior to Eli . If Eli had done something wrong and of course, he’s obviously wrong. You should step in between Eli and Mia and not to take side” Luke Rowan scolded his Son.

How can Mile join in the decision to leave the mansion? Do they want this vibrant and bubbling mansion to become desolate? Mile should have known better.

“I am not taking sides father butI am not living here with Eli anymore” Mile voiced out his decision. His brother had always been domineering since they were kids and he had never taken it to heart before.

Now, being a lieutenant, he had eventually become thick skinned and thought he could do whatever he wanted, and speak however he felt like.

“You’re not leaving this mansion, not with my grandson and daughter-in-law. On the contrary, you will join your mother and I in persuading Mia and Aurora to return. I want my family to be complete again” Luke Rowan declared.

“Too late father” they all looked in the direction of the familiar voice and saw Mia holding a Suitcase. Her eyes were slightly swollen and red with batches of dried tears on her face.

Alarmed Madam Rowan asked her daughter “Mia, are you really leaving? Are you going to leave your own mother?”

“I am leaving, mother. You have your daughter-in-laws, you have your Sons and a grandson; you have father and grandfather with you. But tell me, besides Aurora, who else do I have? Ralia? No mother I have to leave with my daughter” Mia whined.

Luke Rowan squinted. His daughter was right. Aurora was the only person her heart beats for the most. Her husband was dead and Ralia was an adopted child. While Aurora is her blood, her gene.

Madam Rowan was also having the same thoughts as her husband. And seeing Mia’s sorrowful looks, she had no more words to persuade her.

Aurora drove the car towards Santiago’s villa. Her kids were super excited; they were going to meet their daddy. But what they didn’t understand was why their mum was cleaning the tears on her face over and over. Isn’t she happy they were going to their daddy’s place?

By now, Aurora’s facial complexion had turned red. Her eyes were sullen. And she wondered how she could ever erase her past from everyone’s memory. Eli was right, she is an illegitimate daughter who also had children out of wedlock.

She’s a bundle of shame and disgrace. She wished… “Mummy, why are you crying?” Samantha asked.

The little girl couldn’t hide her curiosity anymore. “Why should mummy tell you what’s bothering her?” Sam answered his sister with a question.

He automatically was telling her that something was ‘bothering’ their mother but Samantha wouldn’t understand what he’s indirectly telling her.

Samantha wants to know, every why, and how, and what, to everything she sees.

“I wasn’t asking you any question, you’re just too nosy” Samantha answered with a frown. What was Sam’s concern with the question she asked, he just likes to poke his nose where it doesn’t belong.

“Who do you say is nosy? I am better than you, that is snoopy” Sam quarreled. Samantha’s curiosity is really getting too much, one day, her curiosity was going to put her in trouble.

Aurora giggled as she stared at her kids from the rear mirror. They were arguing. What’s the difference between being nosy and snoopy? These kids have lifted her damp mood. She smiled. “I am not crying baby” Aurora lied.

“Then why are there tears in your eyes?” Samantha propped further. She knew her mother was lying to her. When her mummy came to their room and sent the nanny off, her eyes were red. After all the drama and her mum brought them into the car, tears had been running down her cheeks.

And now, her mummy said, she’s not crying. Why are tears in her eyes? When Aurora heard her daughter’s question, she felt her lips twitch. This girl is just too inquisitive. How was she going to answer her question?

While Aurora was thinking of what to say, Sam beats her to it “What if chilly had dropped in mummy’s eyes? Wouldn’t there be tears in her eyes?” Sam was headbent in defending his mother. He really loves his mother and knows she’s in a bad mood. In future he would not allow anyone to bully her.

Aurora had a look of ‘huh’ on her face. Sam was head bent on defending her. She smiled and looked at Samantha’s eyes, staring at her brother with contempt. Sam stared back at her with a poker face. He really resembled his father.

“Ok…ok kids. No more arguments. I am fine and I promise no more tears’ ‘ Aurora intervened at the unhappy stare of the kids.

After Mia Rowan left the Rowan mansion, the whole house was plugged into an exceptional quietness. No one got into another’s way and no talk, no whispering. Everyone just minds their business.

Eli was disheartened at what he said to his sister and niece. He didn’t expect to annoy them with his words, but now, a split milk cannot be recovered back.RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

His wife Lisa practically ignored him. She wouldn’t even answer him when he talks or asks a question.

Lisa was thinking of what she’d do that would really hurt Eli . Several options crossed her mind. She can’t have an abortion, the baby in her belly was hers as much as it was Eli ‘s.

They’ve been married for a few years and only now, did they start having the joyful expectation of parenthood.

Finally, she stilled her heart and made a decision.
