My Wife is a Sassy Queen

Jonathan stayed behind as he watched the doctors check up on the family of three.

He looked at the twins closely after the mother was sent for an X-ray.

Jo was indeed the carbon copy of the little girl in his memory. So, the girl he had met at 13 must be Liliana. Everyone called her Lil, just like the little girl.

The boy looked different, he had Liliana’s mouth and nose but the face-cut, forehead, and square jaw probably belonged to his father. He felt a strange familiarity with his features like he had seen them before.

He winced at the thought of their father, at the thought of Liliana being with another man.

He mentally kicked himself, he had no right to think that.

He wondered where their father was as he looked at the kids sleeping peacefully.

Henry took him for blood donation, in case there were complications later. It’s best to be prepared.

During the blood donation, Henry told him how he had met Lil seven years ago when they were both on a one-way ticket from P city to Maple city.

She had passed out on the plane and he, being the trainee doctor, had helped. They had kept in touch mostly because Lil wanted to repay the debt of gratitude, and eventually they became friends.

The twin’s poor constitution was due to the poor conditions on how they had been conceived. Despite knowing they would have health issues, Lil had wanted to keep the babies.

Henry had been their private doctor since Day-0.

Jonathan asked about their father, but Henry only shook his head. He knew he must be someone from P city, and they probably had a bad relationship given she had taken her maternal grandmother’s name for herself and the twins after coming to Maple city.

Henry was not sure if they were divorced though. He cursed saying if they were, it’s the man’s loss since Lil was an amazing person.

Jonathan smiled self-deprecatingly.

He had promised to fall in love with her, woo her, marry her, love her, cherish her, and treat her like a Queen. Yet, he was talking about her husband and asking about her kids to another person.

He went back to the ward after blood donation.

Nathaniel was awake. Jo was still sleeping, and Lil was not back yet.

“Who are you?” Li asked Jonathan, “You look like our biological father.”

“Hmm?” Jonathan was shocked and did not know how to respond.

“I indirectly caused Jo’s fall. I am sorry.” Jonathan apologized to the boy. There was something about the sharpness on his eyes that indicated he was smarter than average.

“Did you help Jo and Mommy afterward?” The little one asked.

“Yes, I tried.” Jonathan felt strange. He felt like a kid confessing his bad conduct to his stern father. He shook off the awkward image and focused on the boy.

“Did you donate blood?” He asked, looking at the juice and snacks in Jonathan’s hands.

“Yes. We have the same blood type.” Jonathan replied. He was strangely happy about that.

“Then, you are forgiven. Everyone makes mistakes, it’s okay as long as you correct it,” Li said like an adult.Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
