Chapter 90
💗ERNEST💗

"Pass the ball, Dad!" My little champion called out. I passed the ball to him. He caught it with his tiny hands. 

"My turn!" My princess squealed, raising her tiny hands. 

We are all in the pool. They are actually at the spot meant for kids and I am at the adult spot. 

Ryan threw the ball at Emma but she didn't catch it. 

Ryan burst into laughter. 

"Stop laughing at me." She whined. 

"You can't catch a simple ball." Ryan said, still laughing. 

I chuckled a bit. 

"Dad!" Emma whined. 

"Stop laughing at my little princess, Champ." 

"Sorry," Ryan said sarcastically. 

"Come on, princess, grab the ball." 

She grabbed the ball. 

"Throw it at me." 

She obeyed and I got the ball. 

"That's my princess." I said, making her giggle. 

"My turn!" Ryan squealed.

Chuckling, i threw the ball at him and  caught it instantly. 

I have myself a footballer to raise here. 

"Catch, Emma!" He yelled. 

Emma missed again. 

Ryan laughed out. 

I stared at him amusingly but something caught my attention behind him. 

His mother. 

Oh Fuck. 

She is approaching in a very sexy red bikini. 

Lord have mercy. 

My eyes fed on her insane curves, flawless skin, long legs, full breasts, God, my dick is getting hard. 

She is so hot right now. 

Good God. 

My hands are aching to explore every bit of that gorgeous body of hers. 

What a sweet sight. 

I want.....

"Dad!!" My kids claimed my attention. 

"Huh?" 

"Where are your senses, Dad?" Ryan asked. 

"What?" 

"We have been calling you but you are not answering." Emma said. 

"Oh, I uh..." I trailed off the minute their mother stood next to them. 

"Mum!" They called happily and in unison.

"Hey, sweeties. Mind if I join you guys?" She asked as she sat on the edge of the pool and put her legs into the water. 

My dick is going through a lot right now. She makes me want her so badly. 

"We are playing catch, mummy." Ryan said. 

"Wow." She said, packing her hair up in a bun, adding to my misery. 

God, she is so hot. 

So sexy. 

So.... everything. 

"Yes, mum. It is fun. Do you want to join us?" Emma asked. 

"You can't play catch, Emma. What makes you think mummy can?" Ryan asked. 

Kimberly chuckled. "Of course I can, Ryan. You underestimate your mother." She said. 

"Dad, catch!" Emma yelled out, throwing the ball at me. 

And I missed. 

"What?! Dad!" Ryan yelled, sounding surprised and disappointed. 

Sorry, champ. It's your mother's fault. 

She had to come out here looking like that. 

Looking fucking sexy. 

I picked the ball. 

"Throw it to mummy." Emma said. 

Kimberly looked at me. 

I managed to suppress the hardness I am feeling and raised the ball. 

"Are you ready?" I asked.

"Just throw the ball." She said. 

"Okay," i said and threw the ball at her. 

It knocked her face a little. 

"Oh," 

Ryan burst into laughter. 

I fought the urge to laugh. 

She threw me a glare. 

I raised my hands in surrender. 

"I am sorry. You said you were ready." I said, shrugging. 

She picked the ball. 

"Me, mum." Ryan said but Kimberly is aiming the ball at me. 

Oh boy. 

"Mum, it is my turn." 

Kimberly didn't listen but threw the ball at me. 

I let it hit me, to give her that fulfilment. 

"Ow!" I faked it, placing my palm on my face. 

Emma burst into laughter. 

Kimberly smiled at Emma. That's beautiful. 

"Dad," Ryan whined. 

"I know, son. Sometimes you have to let the women in your life win." I said, looking at Kimberly. 

She rolled her eyes. 

"But, no more embarrassments." I said, passing the ball to Ryan. 

"Hello, Family." Indy's familiar voice claimed our attention. She is approaching us, dressed in her usual fashion way. 

"Kim!" She squealed happily. 

I looked at Kimberly. 

She smiled at Indy a little.

"Indy, hey," she called. 

"Hey, what? Aren't you going to come and say hi to your friend?" Indy asked. 

Kimberly moved and got on her feet. She walked towards Indy and they shared a hug. 

I guess I am the only bad guy in her life. She is cool with my sister. 

Interesting. 

"You look beautiful and hot." Indy said. 

Indeed. 

And guess what, her ass is looking at my face right now. 

Fuck. 

The things I would do to that ass. 

Fucking backshots that's what. 

God, why did I ever leave her? 

I am a big fool. 

Now all she talks about is Robert. 

That fucker! 

At least she didn't go to his arms today. I don't even want to imagine him touching her. 

The thought alone makes me mad. 

"Oh my niece and nephew!" Indy squealed happily as she walked towards the kids who doesn't know who she is. 

They are just looking at her. 

"God, they are so adorable." Indy said and she leaned down to them. 

"Hello, I am Indiana. I am your one and only auntie." Indy said, smiling at them. 

"Really?" Ryan asked. 

"Yes, champ. She is my sister. Your aunt." I said. 

"You are pretty." Emma said to her. 

"Aw, you are gorgeous, sweetie." Indy said, caressing Emma's cheek. 

I looked at Kimberly. 

She is staring at them and smiling. 

"And you have my mother's eyes. Did you notice, Ernest?" Indy asked, making me look at her. 

"Huh?"

"She has our mother's eyes. Hazel and bright." Indy said, smiling at Emma. 

"Well, the DNA result is true. She is mine." I said, looking at Kimberly. 

She is looking at me. 

I smiled at her. 

She looked away from me. 

"What about me?" Ryan asked.

Indy chuckled. "You have your mother's eyes. Brown and beautiful." 

Ryan chuckled. 

Indy stood up straight and walked towards Kimberly. 

"How are you, Kimberly?" Indy asked.

"Doing well." Kimberly answered as she took a seat on the bench. 

"I can see that. You are with your family. You should be doing well." 

"I am leaving tomorrow. I am not staying for so long." Kimberly said.

I heaved a sigh. 

"Leaving?" Indy asked. 

"Yes. I am going back to my fiance." She said, making my heart clench slightly. 

"Oh. I see." Indy said, looking at me. 

I dropped my gaze. 

"Well, it is nice to have you here. There is no better place like home with your family." Indy said, walking towards me. 

"Ernie, can I see you for a moment?" Indy asked, making me look at her. 

"Sure." I said and looked at my kids. 

"I will right back, kids." I said, swimming towards the edge. 

"Are you coming back soon, dad?" Ryan asked.

"Yes, champ. Play with your mother and sister." I said as I got out of the pool and walked towards Indy. I picked up a towel and used it to wipe my body as we both entered the house. 

"What's up, sis?" I asked as I sat on the sofa. 

"What does she mean by she is going back to her fiance?" Indy asked, placing her hand on her hip. 

I heaved a sigh. 

"That's what she said, Indy." 

She scoffed, taking a seat next to me. 

"And you are going to let that happen?" She asked. 

"I can't force her to be with me." 

"What the...... don't you love her anymore?" She asked. 

I scoffed. "She is love of my life, Indy. You know that." 

"Then you should stop her from going back to that jerk." 

I furrowed my brows. "Look who is talking. I thought you were team Robert." 

"That was then. You were the jerk so I wanted her to be happy. So I used him to get back at you." 

I scoffed. "Wow. Your own brother." 

"Yes. You deserved it. You were a jerk to her. You made her cry all the time." 

My heart clenched. 

"But it is better to stick with the devil you know than start with the angel you have no clue of." She said. 

I looked at her. "What's that supposed to mean?" 

She heaved a sigh. "That jerk confronted at the mall sometime ago." 

"What?" 

"He was asking for you. He said he is going to deal with you." 

I scoffed. "Yeah right. He can't do shit." 

"I know but you should see the way he grabbed me." 

I furrowed my brows. 

"He almost hit me if it wasn't for Bryan, Kim's brother, who saved me from him." 

I clenched my jaw. "How dare him?" 

"He scares the shit out of me. I don't think he deserve Kim. I have doubts about him." She said. 

I heaved a sigh. 

"You can't let her go back to him." She said. 

"I don't know, Indy. She doesn't want to forgive me. She hates me." 

"You said she told you she loved you, right?" 

"Yes but she was drunk." 

"Same thing. She loves you. She is just angry and upset because of how you treated her. Don't you get it?" She asked. 

"The more reason I have to let her go." 

"What?" 

"I don't deserve her forgiveness, Indy. I don't deserve her. " 

"Yes, you don't but no one is perfect. You have to fight for her." 

I looked at her. 

She nodded. "Try harder and earn her forgiveness. Why did you give up easily for pit's sake?" 

I rubbed my temples. "I don't know what to do." 

"Show her that you are sorry. Show her how much you regret your actions and how much you love her." She said. 

My heart reacted as I process all she just said. 

"Me, mum! Me!" Ryan's voice claimed my attention. 

I saw Kimberly chuckling as she threw the ball at Ryan. 

My heart raced. 

"That's your family, Ernest." Indy said as I kept staring at them. 

"Fight for them. Fight for your love for Kimberly." 

I heaved a sigh. 



NIGHT HOURS......

I walked out of my walk-in closet in just my black sweatpants and I saw Kimberly tucking the kids on my bed. 

The kids insisted that they sleep in my room tonight. 

I am glad she is allowing it. She doesn't look excited about it but she is allowing it. 

I wish she could sleep here as well. 

I stood at the entrance door of my walk-in closet, staring at her. 

I watched as she placed kisses on their temples. She is such a beautiful mother. 

The sight is priceless. 

I wonder how she took care of them by herself for fives years. I wish I was there. 

I wish I didn't kick her out. 

I wish I had given her the chance to tell me she was pregnant. 

I wish I was there when she gave birth to them. Because of me, she lived on the streets. 

She lived on the streets with my kids inside her. 

I can't imagine all she went through. The cold and harsh nature of the streets. 

I was poor but I never lived on the streets. I can't imagine what she went through. 

She went through a lot. She had my kids with her all the time I was treating her badly at the company. 

I don't deserve her. 

I don't deserve her at all. 

But Indy is right. I have to fight for my love for her. I have to show her how sorry I am. 

Her eyes moved to me. 

I stared at her. 

She looked away from me as she walked around the bed. 

"Ryan sleeps improperly sometimes and Emma wakes up in the middle of the night for water. A bottle of water is on the nightstand." She said, without looking at me. 

I nodded. "I got it." 

She glanced at me. "Good night," she said, turning to leave. 

"Why don't you sleep here as well?" I asked, stopping her on her track. 

"I don't want to." She said. 

My heart clenched. 

She headed out and closed the door. 

I heaved a sigh as I walked towards my bed. My kids are sound asleep and letting out little snores. 

I smiled at their cuteness. I got on the bed quietly so I don't wake them. 

I laid on my back and placed my wrist on my temples. 

Kimberly filled my thoughts. I don't think I will be able to sleep tonight. 

I looked at my kids. 

Ryan stirred and placed his hand on Emma's face. 

I smiled as I reached for him and placed him properly. 

"Your mother knows you very well, Champ" I muttered, smiling a little.

Sighing, I laid back and stared at the ceiling. 

Time went by and I decided to walk around. 

And maybe check up on her. 

I really can't sleep. 

I headed out of the room and walked along the hallway. 

I got to the guest room where she is. I stared at the door knob, contemplating what to do. 

She must be asleep. 

I can't disturb her. 

I should go back to my room. 

God, I can't. 

I reached for the door knob and opened the door quietly. I saw her on the bed, sleeping soundly. 

The sheets are covering her halfway, exposing her cleavage to me. 

She is so beautiful. 

So irresistible. 

I want to make sweet love to her. 

I have missed her so much. I missed every bit of her. 

My beautiful wife. 

My sunshine. 

I made a step towards her. She stirred a bit, stopping me on my track.

Let her be, Ernest. Go back to your kids. 

I stared at her for a while before turning to leave but...

"Ernest....." 

I froze. 

I looked at her. 

She is still sound asleep. 

"Ernest...." 

My heart clenched tightly. 

I walked towards her. I stood still, put my hands into my pockets and stared at her. 

"Forgive me, baby." I muttered, still staring at her. 

"I am so sorry."

She is still asleep. 

I reached for her cheek. Her temperature took my attention. 

I furrowed my brows. 

I placed my hand on her neck. 

Fuck. She is burning up. 

"Kimberly," I called. 

She didn't respond. 

I looked around me. I headed out and  towards the kitchen. I got some medicine and a bottle of water. I headed back to her. 

"Kimberly," i called again. 

She didn't respond. 

I sat close to her and raised her up a bit. 

"Kimberly, wake up." 

"Go away..." She muttered. 

"Take this," i said, moving the medicine to her mouth. She opened and took it in. I gave her water. 

She drank it. 

I placed her back and walked towards the bathroom. I grabbed a hand towel and soaked it in cold water.

I squeezed the water out of the towel before walking back to her. I placed the wet towel on her temples. 

I leaned down, staring at her. 

"Where is this fever coming from, baby?" I muttered.

Her eyes are closed. 

"I hope the medicine works." I said, caressing her hair. 

Time went by and I got on my feet to leave but she held my hand, making me look at her. 

"Don't go," she said, opening her eyes slightly. 

My heart raced. 

Her eyes closed back. 

I decided to get on the bed with her. 

I moved her closer to me, making her rest her head on my bare chest as I held her closer. My heart fluttered being this close to her. 

I placed a kiss on her hair. 

"I love you, Kimberly. I love you so much." 

"I hope you forgive me." 

I caressed her hair gently. I felt sleep coming after me. 



I furrowed my brows a bit as the rays of the sun hit my face. I moved my hand on the bed but I found an empty spot. 

I opened my eyes and they fell on Kimberly. 

She is standing close to the door, her hands are folded and she is looking at me. 

"Kimberly," 

She didn't respond but kept staring at me. She looks better now. 

"How are you feeling?" I asked. 

"Please leave," 

My heart clenched.
