C3 Chapter 3

THE THOMASES RESIDENCE***

Mr. Thomas walked into the house tiredly. He was just coming back from his seven days trip. He couldn't wait to see his wife and his children.

" Honey!" He called out.

At that instant, Mrs. Thomas came rushing downstairs in excitement. She literally flung herself to his arms immediately she got to him.

He smiled and wrapped his arms more tightly around her. Heaven knows how much he missed the woman in his arms.

" You didn't mentioned you were coming today,, despite the fact that we talked not quite long.. why?" She asked immediately they disengaged from the hug.

Smiles cheekily " I wanted to give you guys a surprise. Did that work?"

" Obviously" Mrs. Thomas said as they both laughed.

" Where are the kids?" Mr. Thomas asked

" Up in their rooms... The house was so boring without you and the kids weren't helping at all" she muttered and pouted childishly

Laughs " I'm back now, okay?"

Chuckle " I know, right?" Mrs. Thomas said

" Bella, can you please call my babies for me?" She motioned over to a maid

" Yes, right away ma'am" Bella replied

" Don't mention it to them that their dad is back, okay?" She quickly added

" Okay ma" bella said and rushed off.

Few minutes later, two boys could be seen coming downstairs. They are both twins.

Michael and Miguel are the only children of the THOMASES... Yea,,, they might be twins but they totally differ from each other.

They are both handsome but Michael is the most cutest. They are always on each other's neck. They are like cat and dog.

Michael is known to be an uptight guy. Always alone,, you can also call him a rude guy cos that's what he his. While Miguel is the carefree type. He's the flirty type and is always found around girls.

Back to present**

Miguel was the first to see their dad.

" Dad?" He called to be sure. He rubbed his eyes as if he was seeing things and this action made Mr. Thomas laugh

Michael looked up at the mention of his dad's name. He was also shocked. They weren't expecting their dad to be back today.

Miguel quickly rushed to their dad and gave him a brief hug.

" Dad I'm so happy you're back. I miss you so much dad" he smiled at him.

Chuckles " I miss you too son" he replied. He looked over at Michael who simply shrugged and moved closer to him.

" Good afternoon dad" he muttered

Mr. Thomas simply smiled at him " you should stop being too upright mich, otherwise people will distance themselves from you" he said to him.

Michael looked over at his mom who motioned him not to speak a word. He looked away from his mom and looked at his dad.

" How was your trip?" He asked instead

Sighs" fine, thanks. Have you guys had lunch?"

" No" Miguel was the one who answered this time around

" Then what are we waiting for? Let's go eat I'm so famished" Mr. Thomas said and they all went to the dining room.

BAKER'S MANSION***

Mr. Baker spilled the food from his mouth immediately he heard what Sophia said.

"What?!!" Shock was an understatement for him at that moment.

" You're what?" He asked again to be sure.

Bits her lips in shame " I'm pregnant, dad" Sophia said for the second time.

Laughs out loud for a while and quickly sobers up. " Tell me that's a joke!!" He roared at her.

Quickly went on her knees and burst into fresh tears " Dad I'm sorry. I never meant for it to happen... It was a mistake". Sophia cried out..

Mrs. Baker just stood rootlessly to the spot. She didn't even know what she felt at that moment.

Her first daughter who's just twenty years old came home claiming to be pregnant.... Hahaha,,, that's not true right?

She faced Sophia and walked up slowly to her. She raised her face to meet hers.

" Tell me that's not true. Tell me you're just joking" she asked shakingly looking into her eyes wishing she could just say it was a lie,,, that it was a joke.

But instead, Sophia bursts into another round of tears and that alone claimed her fears. Her daughter was pregnant out of wedlock!!!!

Her legs wobbled and she felt to the ground. Ava quickly rushed to her.

" Mom!" She called and bent down to raise her up.

Mr. Baker looked at his daughter who was on the ground crying her eyes out and walked up to her before landing a hot slap on her face.

That alone broke Mrs. Baker out of her reverie. She quickly stood up and went to shield Sophia from her husband.

" Derek please stop it" she cried out. " We can talk this out. Don't hurt her please" she begged

All this while, Karen stood by the side listening to everything that's happening. Everything felt too shocked to be true.

" Get out of my way, Emily" Mr. Baker yelled

" No, I won't. Just calm down, huh?"

Breathes in slowly " who's the father?" He asked calmly.

Mrs. Baker looked at Sophia expectantly. Right now, all her prayer was that the matter should be settled amicably among them.

Sophia slowly cleaned the tears in her eyes " my boyfriend " she slowly said.

" Who's he?" Mr. Baker asked calmly again

" His name is Mark. He's a final year student in college" she muttered

Mrs. Baker faced her husband after listening to her daughter. She slowly moved closer to him and touched him gently

" Derek, I know what she did was wrong,, but we can't just blame her that way. She's still a young girl who's still new in this world. She already made this mistake and it's a duty for us as her parents to bring her closer and lead her through" she cautioned her husband.

Hearing that statement, Karen couldn't help but to look at her parents in a surprised manner. Look at the people who almost killed her just because she confessed to a guy now drawing a girl who's pregnant closer?

Just the thought of that made her heart churn in pain. It was now this obvious she was loathe by her family for a reason best known to them.

Ava moved closer to her dad and knelt down in his presence

" Dad I'm apologizing on my sister's behalf. I know what she did was wrong but please forgive her" she begged

Mr. Baker looked at Sophia one more time before moving closer to her. He raised her up and sighed heavily.

" Go to your room, we'll talk about this later. And invite your boyfriend over tomorrow. I wanna meet him" he said

Sophia slowly nods her head " yes dad"

Mrs. Baker sighed out in relief and quickly took her daughter upstairs before her husband changes his mind.

Ava stood up and smiles at her dad

" Thank you so much dad" she appreciated

Mr. Baker only cleared the throat and without saying a word, he went upstairs.

Ava turned her head to meet Karen's gaze and quickly looked away before rushing off.

Karen looked at her retreating figure and tears slowly spilled out from her eyes.

She moved to the dining and began clearing all the plates crying softly.
