Chapter 1 One
I woke up so early this morning feeling so refreshed, happy, cool, bubbling and excited about this new day. It was 4:30 am already. I looked beside me, my husband was still sleeping soundly on the bed. I bent over him and gave him a little peck on the cheek. He reacted sleepily by turning over to the other side. I giggled and covered him properly, before jumping off the bed, to start the new day fully!
My name is Sonia Tinket. The one and only special wife of Alexander Tinket, a handsome, loving, wonderful man, husband and father of my two children, Marvin and Marvela Tinket.
Alexander Tinket, the love of my life, my darling and my whole world, is a smart working class millionaire. The manager of the biggest textile industry in the whole of Africa. He's very brilliant, handsome, cute, hardworking, very generous, a sweetheart, a true father and the best husband ever.
I could remember vividly the first time we met. I think it was love at first sight. He was caught in love and so was I. Though, I thought it was never gonna work out due to our busy work schedules as we never had time to really meet, hangout and talk. But as heaven would have it, we both went on a business sponsored vacation to Waterford, Ireland. That was where we reunited again. We used the opportunity to get to know ourselves more, talked, went to see some movies, went sightseeing, went touring and spent a lot of time together.
We returned to become closer and closer and closer, though our jobs still tried to keep us apart, but we didn't relent till we tied the knot and later on got married, ready to live happily ever after, till death do us part.
We were blessed with two kids in this beautiful marriage, Marvin and Marvela are two beautiful twins. Marvin the boy and the eldest and Marvela the pretty damsel. They are eight years old and in their third year in the primary section. They both were the apple of our eyes. Aside my husband, the next thing I don't ever joke with are my two kids. They are so lovely and believe me, you can't stay with them for a minute without being relieved. I love them so much.
I went to the bathroom to brush my teeth which after I was done, I washed my face. I went to the kids room to check them up, Marvin was sleeping soundly when I checked him up, I kissed him on his forehead before leaving his room. Then, I went to Marvela's room to check on her also. I knocked before sauntering in, I noticed the a glimpse of light going off. She must be awake, this little girl never ceases to amaze me. I wonder what she's up to this time around. I walked up to her bed, she was pretending to be asleep. I sat on her bed for a while before calling out her name.
"Hey Marvela, hey" I said, touching her cheek.
She couldn't stop herself from smiling as I did that. So she had to give up on her little prank, since she realised I had found out.
"Good morning Mommy." She said in her tiny but sweet voice.
"Good morning baby girl. You're awake this early. What are you up to?
"Preparing for school" she replied
"Vel, it's too early to prepare for school. You didn't check the time when you woke up? I asked her.
"It said 5:30 am when I woke up. Since it was just 30 minutes to our normal waking up time, I decided there was no need sleeping anymore. So, I uhm..." she paused for a while, not wanting to complete it.
"You what Vel?
"I decided to read my comic book."
"Vel, it's so early to read that okay. By the way, did you read your Bible and pray this morning before doing that? I asked, knowing well that I didn't either and never did. But, I still teach them to do it despite that.
"No mommy. I would do that when it's 6 O'clock." She answered.
"Listen baby, let that be the first thing you do every morning before any activity, no matter the time you wake up, okay? I said while rubbing her face with my palms.
"Okay mommy. I would pray for my twin brother, I will pray for you and also for daddy."
"That's my baby girl. You know I love you right? I love you." I said, kissing her plump cheek.
"I love you too mommy."
I smiled cooly at her and left her alone. She picked up her Bible and then covered her hair with a headtie. I could hear her tiny voice saying some prayers as I headed to the kitchen which was downstairs.
I opened the kitchen door and went in, while leaving it open. I could feel the joy bubbling in my heart. You know why?
Just yesterday, I got a promotion to become the manager of my company. A foreign cosmetic and body care company which had a branch here in the country. It had been my dream for a long time to become manager, but I wasn't expecting it so soon. I was really surprised when I got to work yesterday and I was called by the previous manager and handed a letter. The joy that filled my heart when I saw it. The previous manager was transferred to a different country while I was given the privilege to replace her.
I will be going to work today as a different person all together. Different title, different office, different level and top notch. But, that would also mean more responsibilities. Hmmmm, I thought, yeah, that's true. I have to make sure to see that it doesn't affect my relationship and household obligations as well.
What should I cook now, I thought. Something light but special at the same time. I should also prepare lunch we would take to the office and my kids to school.
