Double Bossed

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.
