Chapter 7 Proposal

I had called Mr. Atticus yesterday after those Bimbos left my office, I told him to meet me up at my house today after the Kids have been dropped of at my mom's and school respectively. I had just gotten home barely thirty minutes ago when my door bell rang. So, I went to the door to check who it was using the door cam, I saw it was Mr. Atticus and his guards, I sighed dramatically before opening the door. "Does meanie here and your minions have to follow you around every where?" I asked pointing to the guard I met at the ice cream shop and the guards behind. "Good morning Mr.

Ezra." He greets ignoring my comment about his guard. "Come in." I tell him as I gestured opening the door widely for them to come in. Meanie and Mr. aristocrat enters while the others waited outside. They examine the house and then went into the living room, with me following behind. I tell Meanie to make himself comfortable in the living room while Mr. Atticus and I head upstairs to talk. He simply nods, "Oh and Meanie make yourself at home, I severed some iced tea and muffins in the dinning area." I inform him before heading up too.

Entering in to my office I closed the door behind us and offered him a seat, when he was seated comfortably I told him about the bimbos visit and asked him to withdraw his order from the schools within the state including Primoris. "I can do that on the other schools but not our children's" He says frowning , he looks good with a frown though. What the heck is wrong with me? "They are still kids, they can be corrected besides those kids took more hits than ours did that means Sebastian and Michelle are capable of taking care of themselves." I explain to him, he stares in to my eyes briefly before releasing a sigh. "I'll think about it but that's only because you asked." He tells me, I smiled at his words and quickly grab his hand to shake him. "Now let's talk about what I needed to tell you last week." He states staring into my eyes and not looking away this time. Oh dear I completely forgot about that.

"Okay, so what did you want to talk about?" I asked, taking my seat next to him. "I'll go straight to the point." He tells me still not taking his eyes off me, I feel so small with his heated gaze on me. "Let's get married Mr. Ezra." I was rendered speechless as soon as those words were uttered, his face showed he was dead serious but I couldn't help but wonder why? "Um... Mr. Atticus, I can see you are serious and all but I'm a man who just got divorced and most importantly I'm straight." I tell him making emphasis on man and straight part. "I already know all these, but can you think about it for a few days. Having a family and building a secure home together for our kids is a great goal." He reasons out, and takes my hand in his. Besides the massive wealth and all that he'll give the kids what else could I and the kids possibly need or want? It's not like I'm not buoyant enough to provide for my children, I get paid handsomely and I'm above the average. I have no loans or debts to pay , I have a house and cars plus I also have a few investments and savings besides my job. "Mr. Atticus beside wealth and family name you can't really offer much. You'll be too busy for family. And if you're doing this for Sebastian he's always welcome to my home." I tell him with a sad smile on my face. He looked surprised when I mentioned him only doing it because of Seb. "You may think it only for Sebastian but I can assure he's not the only reason. Yes he wanted this but that doesn't mean I didn't want it too. Honestly, if I had no interest at all I would propose a contract but I wanted this to work between us Mr. Ezra so please think about it." For some reason I could feel his sincerity and just looking in to his eyes I see he was being direct and honest. Why could I tell so much from his eyes. He doesn't come off as an easy nor soft person but to me that all I see about him.

It was already mid night and Mr. Atticus had been long gone, and after he had left I couldn't stop thinking about what he had said. I had put Michelle and Michael to bed for about two hour now and I had just rounded up my work so I'm on my bed about to fall asleep to the thoughts of Edgar's request. My eyelids slowly closes as I fall asleep to my thoughts. DREAM: I opened my eyes to see I was in an empty white space with only one tall oak tree, but it seemed so far from me. "Hello?" I called out but when I got no reply I began walking towards the tree but the closer I got the further the tree was. It seemed like an unattainable journey so I grew tired and sat at spot. And out of nowhere a white wolf as tall as me emerges and seats beside me, I panicked and scoots away frantically. "How?" I whispered, "No need to panic child." A voice echoes, "Who are you?" I ask as I look around in fear. " Down here." I heard again this time I looked at the wolf. The wolf? "How are you doing that?" I asked it, "Listen child, for everything that happened has a purpose and for everything that will happen also has a purpose, I'll guide you and protect you." It says and then rests it's head on my thighs. "But why?" I asked confused, "Your second chance is for you to gain every thing, live happily and for your off springs right?" the wolf made emphasis on the offspring , I nodded in reply. "So then do you think having children stops at just Michelle and Michael?" it asked chuckling, it stands towering over my sitting figure and before I realized it we were under the Oak tree. "Do Not Waste Time On Petty Worries Take Actions Child, I Will Guide YOU." : DREAM ENDS.
