DIANDRA ENCOURAGE ALEX

Rising up, Diandra pick up her phone and leave her dinner and went to plug on the phone, then she return to complete her meal.

Hearing Alex asks if she had given him the ice-cream earlier?

Joash said, "Yes, Papa, it finished."

"Diandra, I only bought that ice-cream Wednesday, is that container of ice-cream finish already?"

"I will buy the next one, so don't worry, I will facilitate my cravings."

"That won't be necessary, didn't I say if when you return, I will buy all the groceries, and when I eat meal like this, I don't really mine facilitating your craving.

In-fact I don't mind buying extra ice-cream when the whole family eating the same flavor.

Now I just have to wait to see if my baby girl will like chocolate or vanilla?"

"Well, I only hope I get a company, seeing you already have a vanilla partner."

"I agree, I never thought the day will come when I will see you eating vanilla ice-cream, knowing you don't like the taste."

Alex notices every time he wants his mother to feed him, he touches her hand and she atomically put the food in his mouth that she had set aside.

'What more can I ask for?' Saying a silent prayer as he looks at the both of them.

'This was my prayer that she returns home, and we become a family. I never expected a son in the package, Lord.

You, have truly blessed me abundantly with a full package. Diandra, could read and write, and she could do accounts.

When I knew that I will get the Security Firm, I had always thought I will get a wife to help out in the firm.

What a strike of good luck and she is a Storyteller. You have been faithful to your word Lord.

And now Lord, You, have restore my family and I must be faithful and trustworthy to my word and do as I had promise and return to Your house.

I only need for them to be safe from whosoever is targeting my life so we can return to Your house as a family.

Diandra look up wanting to know who sniffled, as Alex brush the tears away not wanting her to see it.

But she stood up and went to him, "Tell me what is worrying you?"

When he hesitated, she stoops in front of him holding his face with her both hands looking at him.

"Now I want you to know though matter what that devil have up his sleeve, God will not allow him to have the victory.

We are God children, and He will fight for us. Answer me this, do you think after all these years He have kept us and now that He brought us back together? Do you think He will allow that devil to snuff us out of His presence?

Seeing him shake his head, "Good, now I want you to trust in the Lord, whatever that devil is trying or plotting is no surprise or match for the Lord.

Remember His word said, He will give His angels charge over us. We might not see them, but God has his angels surrounding this house. So I want you to rest assured that God is in control.

Angling, his chair so he could take her in his arm, "Do you know how much I love you and my son?"

"I know, now it is getting late," hearing her call Joash.

"Diandra honey, do me a favor and stay away from the window, those men are out for business. I glimpse one have a gun."

"Thanks, now we have to hurry, they have a plan so we have to work on ours."

"Come son, you have to brush your teeth for bed." 'Knowing Diandra is still a bit pale, she could do with some more rest.

Now that mean I will have to be on the alert, so whenever she doses away, he will have to take up the slacks and keep watch.'

When she took up the dirty dishes and rest it in the sink, "Honey, you can leave that for the morning?"

"You go ahead, I will be up by the time you are done helping him."

Hurrying she wash the few dishes knowing Joash like his story time when he goes to bed on a Saturday night. I know the surroundings won't make a difference to his routine.

Alex takes the small center table and rest it by the face basin and lift him up so he can brush his teeth comfortable.

Recalling that she had a stool for him at the cottage so she doesn't have to keep lifting him up seeing how weak and frail she was.

Hearing him saying, "Papa, I am done."

"Okay, let me see your teeth?" When he opens his mouth, "Very good, now your tongue."

Smiling seeing he had done well. "Okay, you are getting to be a big boy for your mummy and Papa."

"Papa, Granpa said I am a big boy."

"Yes, your grandpa and grandma are right, and my boy is smart and he is brave to."

Wiping his face seeing him went and lie down, "Your mummy will be here just now."

"Papa, tell me a story?" Diandra heard Alex said, "I don't have any story book and your mummy is the story teller."

Hearing her saying, "Alex, you have heard the story many times, you can tell it to him."

Seeing him looking at her, Alex observed she had already shower and change into her night gown, her stomach is already showing, and she was glowing.

She is right though I have heard the both stories so many times, and if I miss out any parts, she is right her to help me and my son also knows the story.'

Closing his eyes Alex, said, "Once upon a time there was a beautiful Princess, who's name was Princess Pretty."

Hearing Champ saying, "Papa, that is mummy story, you tell me another story."
