《Fate Has Other Plans》Chapter 66

"Hero get back here!" I yell after the three year old boy . He doesnt really like wearing pants which means I have to run around the entire house before he puts on pants .

"Hero! I will not run after you!" I yell , breathing loudly .

"Cant catch me mommy!" His tiny cute voice yells as his giggles fill the room .

Ace walks into the house in a black suit, with a long black coat and a Burberry scarf. It's almost Hero's birthday , and it's really chilly out.

"Ace please help?" I ask him . He gives me a smile before he shakes his head .

"Its your turn ." He simply says . His smile grows as Hero runs to him and embraces him .

I take that as an opportunity, I push the pants up his baby legs .

"I won ." I say sticking my tongue out at the both of them .

"Not fair , mommy cheated." Hero says to his dad.

"Oh , is that so?" He asks . Hero nods and Ace whispers something in his ear .

They both nod and walk past me .

"Okay what the fuck was that? " I think out loud .

As I retreat to the kitchen. Hero lunges himself over me as my body drops to the floor . His small hands begin tickling me and I swear I feel some pee between my legs.

Ace joins as they both tickle me . My body feels exhausted. And then suddenly I feel all the food I ate last night brewing up .

I push both of them off me and bolt to the bathroom to vomit .

"Baby , are you okay? " I hear Ace ask as he holds my hair back .

"Is mommy okay?" Hero asks , I can hear the concern in his voice .

"Get him out of here ." I say , my voice is but a whisper .

"Come on buddy , let's get mommy a towel ." Ace says and they both walk out .

I rinse my mouth and head to the kitchen . Maybe I was laughing too much, that's why I vomited.

After eating the breakfast that Ace cooked , Ace and I drive Hero to the daycare and us to Bernett Industries .

As I am in the office , the intercom rings and Kim speaks .

"Mrs Bernett , a Mr Griffin would like to see you." She says . Oh , yes .

"Let him in." I reply .

I was expecting him today , we have serious business to talk about .

He walks in , wearing a beautiful navy tux , with a gold Gucci tie .

"Ahh , welcome to my office Mr Griffin." I say smiling.

"Oh ,no Mrs Bernett . You know I'm too young for that , you should call me by first name." He says smiling at me . I chuckle .

"How are you Jozea? " I ask him , his smile grows .

"I'm doing well thanks Cassiey . How about you?" He asks me.

"As you can see , I'm doing exceptionally well too." I reply .

He stares at me for sometime , before he gives me a knowing smile .

"What?" I ask him, smiling .

"That smile , the glow , your nose , your breast . You're pregnant ." He says.

"What the fuck?" I ask him .

I cant be pregnant , that's not true . I'd have know right?

"You're pregnant . My sister is doing a nursing course and they're learning about pregnancy . Plus , you look exactly like you did when you were pregnant three years ago." He says , leaning back on the chair .

After that he tells me about the sales of the books , he called the book A Woman Like Me .

He says it's because women don't usually fight back when they're being cheating on , that they sit and cry or they just opt for divorce .

The book was published a month ago and released to the public two weeks ago , the first ten thousand shipments were sold out within a week , making over twenty billion dollars .

Jozea is basically a millionaire right now . The youngest millionaire I know , at only twenty four .

He provides for his family , he put his nineteen year old sister in school and now she's doing a nursing course.

I'm proud of Jozea , from a homeless boy to an author and a responsible man.

"Hey , I have an idea." I say to him.

"Yea , sure let's hear it ." He says with a gentle smile .

"Let's go to that coffee shop where that lady tried to kick you out from ." I say to him , he looks at me and smiles .

"I'd love to , let's go. " he says .

I pop my head in Ace's office and inform him that I'm leaving with Jozea. He barely notices with the work he has to do . He is literally swimming in paper work.

The drive there is silent , but filled with music .

The time I've spent with Jozea has led me to believe that he is a humble and quiet person , but also very hardworking .

We park the car right infront of the shop and we both enter . Just like last time, I stand in the line but this time with Jozea right next to me .

"Hi can I have a cup of hot chocolate and a chocolate muffin . And he'll have..." I begin .

She stares at me , and just like last time she asks .

"Are you Cassandra Smith?" She cuts me off .

"I'm Cassandra Bernett ." I correct .

She corrects herself and repeats the order I was saying and asks .

"And what can I get you handsome fellow. " she says . But then realization hits her hard when she sees who she is speaking too , her mouth falls as she eyes the Gucci tie around his neck.

Yep bitch , you know what it is!

"I'll have a cappuccino and maybe two muffins , your best flavour ." He says , bottling his pride and ego - that I might want to add , is now ceiling high - we are ushered to a table .

There are whispers around the entire shop as people stop to stare at us every second .

After the coffee break Jozea tells me that he has a meeting with his agent . I inform him that I'll take an uber home , he just has to drop me off at my gynae .

I walk into the office and for the first time in my entire life , I see that doctor Mayberry's office is completely empty.

The new receptionist leads me to her office .

"Oh, mrs Bernett. I was just about to close , can I help you?" She asks .

"I'd like to take a pregnancy test ." I say to her . She smiles.

"Already?" She asks .

"We're not exactly sure ." I say nervously. I sit on the bed . She asks me to pee in a small cup and she takes it in a nook where she runs the tests .

I wait for almost twenty minutes before she returns with a paper in her hands.

"Congratulations Mrs Bernett. Baby number two." She says .

My hands fall to my tummy out of habit from Hero .

The entire Uber ride home I run over my thoughts , am I really ready for another Hero?

I love my son , but he's a hand full . And I'm sure I'm going to love my next baby . I just feel that it's a bit early .

But I love my new baby too.

When I get to the office , I head to my car and ride back home .

I find Ace and Hero playing with building blocks .

He looks at me and smiles but when he sees my face , he immediately stands .

"Are you okay? You're looking pale ." He says leading me to the nook .

"I'm pregnant." I say to him . He smiles .

"Really?" He asks .

"Yes , are you angry?" I ask him .

"Why would I be angry baby . I'm happy, I'm excited and I'm just elated." He says . Relief breaks from my chest.

"I thought that you're not ready for another one." I say to him .

"You're never ready for kids, they're a blessing from God . I'm happy baby , and I want you to be happy too." He says and kisses my forehead .

"I love you." He says kissing my forehead again.
