Sweet Twins

Somehow, Nancy always felt like she owed their children so much.

"Bobby, Nadia, please go back to your room. Mommy and I need to talk," Charles said in a low voice. It took him everything he had to hold back his anger. He didn't want them to witness Nancy and him fighting.

"Daddy, what are you going to do? Are you angry at Mommy?" Bobby could feel the iciness between their parents. The expression on his dad's face was rather unsettling.

Daddy was indeed angry!

"Listen to me, Bobby. Daddy loves Mommy very much. What do you think Daddy will do to Mommy? We just need to talk, that's all. You don't have to worry, okay? Now, go to your room." The tone of Charles' voice was soft, yet it still felt cold. The kids knew what this implied.

"Okay. Nadia, let's go. Let's just play in our room." Bobby gently held Nadia's hand and walked away with her.

"Daddy is a little scary, isn't he? I hope he won't fight with Mommy," Nadia whispered as soon as they were out of earshot. She felt really uncomfortable seeing their parents like this.

"It's Mommy's fault this time, Nadia. Of course, they will fight," Bobby replied nonchalantly. He still held onto Nadia's hand while they walked upstairs. Then, he said, "The one who did something wrong must be scolded."

Nadia withdrew his hand from his brother's and replied, "But she's Mommy. I don't want Daddy to scold her." She stopped at the staircase and objected to what Bobby just said.

"I know. And so does Mommy. But we can't do anything about it now," he replied and held his sister's hand once again. They continued walking upstairs. Bobby loved his Mommy very much. He was always the first one to protect her whenever he saw her being wronged.

However, Daddy did his very best to stay with her. Why didn't Mommy just agree?

What was she thinking about? Did she not want them to be a complete family?

Did she really love Nadia and Bobby or not? Why wouldn't she want to marry Daddy?

Bobby was really disappointed in his dearest Mommy. He didn't feel the need to stand up for her this time.

Meanwhile, Nadia looked back at her mom who was still standing in the living room. There was a worried look on her face. She was afraid that Daddy would hurt Mommy.

"Listen to me, Nadia. Daddy won't hurt Mommy. They just need to talk like adults do. We should not bother them." Bobby held Nadia's hand tightly and said, "Just believe in me, okay?"

"Okay." Nadia's shoulders sagged as she sighed. She turned around reluctantly and followed her brother to their room.

As soon as the kids were in their room, the temperature in the living room suddenly dropped several degrees. The tension between Nancy and Charles was almost palpable.
