#FINALE_AND_EPILOGUE.
Chapter Fifty Three.
FIFTEEN YEARS LATER.
“So funny how time have flied, fifteen good years just feel like yesterday” Rebel sighed looking out of the window, she was sitting in her office in Morio.
They started from gras-sroot and now, because of the joint effort of each and everyone of the them, Morio came to live.
Looking out of the window she should see the busy and booming street of Morio, the carefree attitude of people as they walked.
Monarch suddenly waved at Rebel as their eyes locked, she was standing in her coffee shop, she’s now a coffee barrista and yes with kids, she and Sammie happened to walk down the Isle thirteen years back.
“Rebel….” Wren smiled walking into her office to tender a complaint.
“Yes” Rebel composed herself and took a seat.
“Montel group of companies happened to copy our design for the oncoming child education programme” She dropped the bombshell.
Yes, she’s now Rebel’s personal as-sistance, with time she was able to heal from Watson’s dead, it was easy but she pulled throu-gh…no reason to think of him because she has someone that reminds her of him.
“Look into that and file a petition, they won’t go away with it” Rebel purred.
“Alright…” Wren nodded scribbing something now on her notepad.
She turned and began walking out with her pointy heels making clic-king sounds.
“How’s Joe?” Rebel’s question made Wren to stop as a smile curled on her li-ps.
“He’s fine, always comes home with a swollen face or bursted li-ps, that dude never gets tired of fighting” Wren pouted.
“Not blame him, he took after his father, Watson loves fighting like damn!!!” Rebel chuckled and she joined him.
Yea, few months after Watson’s death, she discovered that he was carrying his seed in her…Joe was the result, a really rebellious kid.
“Heard from Celia?” Rebel inquired while grabbing her pen and attending to a file.
“Yea, they’ll be back soon, still can’t believe she moved to Lavender alongside her husband” Wren pouted.
“It was her decision, as her friends we have to be supportive” Rebel smiled.
“Here, hand this over to Dominic on your way out” She added handling the file she just signed to Wren.
“Okay ma’am” Wren collected it exiting her office.
“I nee-d a nap” Rebel sighed resting her head on the desk when the door suddenly bursted open.
“Look who you have here mum” Zola chuckled walking into Rebel’s office alongside her troublesome siblings who she just brou-ght back from school.
“He didn’t say that, stop lying” Whitney scoffed
“Of course he did, he said you look like a clown” Chloe mumbled and her twinnie threw her a glare.
They’re the children Rebel gave birth to, they’ll be completing fifteen years three days from now.
“He didn’t say that, you’re just jealous he asked me out and not you, stop cooking up stories Chloe” Whitney scoffed.
“This children” Rebel Gr0-ned
“They never get tired, wireless microphones” Zola chuckled.
“I swear, you should have just dropped them off at Issa bakery….Issa bakery is owned by Isme and Vanessa, they opened it as a joint business.
“They insisted that i brou-ght them here” Zola smiled.
“Anyway, i gotta go” she added as a message suddenly popped on her phone.
She attended a law school and is currently an Intern in the biggest law firm owned by Axe, it turned out that he was a lawyer but let go of his profession to work for Matteo.
“Alright, drive safely and greet Luke for me” Rebel screamed after Zola who blus-hed shyly, luke is her boyfriend, he’s a lawyer who works at Axe’s friend.
“Tell uncle Axe to buy me an ice cream on his way back or he’ll stop dating my grandma” Chloe screamed after Zola who shook her head laughing heavily.
Axe is currently dating Isme, they fell inlove few years back.
“You talk too much Chloe” Rebel hissed.
“Don’t mind Chloe, talking is her hobby” Whitney hissed as well.
“Not just Chloe, you’re the queen of it” Rebel glared.
“Me?” Whitney’s eyes wide-ned.
“Yes” Whitney squealed dramatically.
“You’re the queen of it” She whispered into her sister’s ears just to piss her off and Rebel chuckled.
“Have you guys eaten?” Rebel inquired.
“Nope, wanna eat burgers, can we go to granny’s baking shop?” Whitney pouted.
“You guys should have just stopped there” Rebel Gr0-ned standing up and grabbing her bag.
“I’ll stand next to mum because after her I’m the most prettiest” Chloe said standing next to Rebel.
“No…” Whitney pulled her back.
“Who told you that you’re the prettiest, don’t you know that i look like dad, everyone keep saying dad is cute so duh!!!” Whitney purred.
“You didn’t just say that” Chloe raged charging at her.
“You girls shouldn’t start” Rebel warned.
“No one look more prettier than the order, you guys are identical remember?”
“Argh!!!, i wish i have a different face” Chloe pouted.
“You’re stucked with this one” Whitney stucked her tongue at her.
They both act like rivals but believe me, they love eachother like damn!
“I’ll be the one to drive” Chloe smiled.
“You can’t even ride a bicycle, I’m not ready to die” Whitney taunted.
“Whitney…” She screamed balling her fist.
“Endless bickering” Rebel shook her head.

ISSA’S ( ISME & VANESSA’S) BAKING SHOP.
“Grannies….” both Whitney and Chloe ran to hu-g Mrs Isme and Vanessa.
“Our babies” Mrs Isme and Vanessa smooched their nose.
“School is over?” Mrs Vanessa asked.
“Yes, it’s past four” Whitney responded.
“Hmm” Chloe sniffed.
“Is that chocolate cookies I’m perceiving?” She asked.
“Chocolate cookies?” Whitney’s mouth watered.
“Yes…” Mrs Isme replied well awared of what will happen next.
“Our favorite” They screamed in unison rushing off to the baking room.
“Go after them, ensure that they don’t rip eachother’s clothes apart” Isme ordered a worker making everyone to burst into laughter.
“Those kids won’t be the end of me” Rebel chuckled.
“How have you been coping, you ba-rely come visiting since we no longer live together” Mrs Vanessa pouted.
“Sorry, I’ve been pretty busy lately” Rebel apologized.
“How’s your husband mum?” Rebel asked Mrs Vanessa.
“He’s fine…” Mrs Vanessa smiled
“Sends his regards though”
★★★
THE KIMMY’S COFFEE/ SHAKES SHOP
“Here’s your order, have a nice day” Monarch smiled handing over a cu-p of shakes to a customer.
She suddenly felt someone wrapped his hands around her wai-st from behind, she smiled because she obviously knows who it was.
“Babe” she turned around and pec-ked Sammie’s li-ps.
“You’re back, how was the delivery?” She inquired.
“It went well but now i nee-d a reward, it was pretty stressful” he pouted leaning more closer.
“Do you guys know you’re in a public place, stop oppressing me” Akantha yelled…she happened to arrive at the shop that moment to place an order.
“Like seriously?” Monarch chuckled disengaging from Sammie.
“What order do you wanna place?” She pressed the machine awaiting Akantha’s order.
“I’ve lose interest” Akantha hissed marching out of the shop.
“She’ll never change” Monarch chuckled.
“Obviously jealous if you ask me” He smiled.
“They didn’t just ki-ss, awnn!!!” Kimmy screamed happily as she was watching a korea drama in the shop.
“Your daughter is obsessed with movies, she has been on it since she came back” Sammie chuckled.
“Kimmy….” Monarch screamed.
“Turn off that TV and attend to your as-signment”
“Wait mum, I think they’re about to do something, they’re falling on the couch” Kimmy gasped making Monarch to Gr0-n.
“Hahaha!!!” Sammie cracked up in laughter.
“What are they about to do Kimmy?” Sammie chuckled.
“You know, or should i go further?” Kimmy winked making Sammie to laugh the more, Monarch pushed him off, he landed on the floor and continued laughing.
“Kimmy…” Monarch charged at Kimmy who ran out of the shop.
Sammie continued laughing rolling on the floor, the customer present in the shop joined him alongside their workers who were busy cleaning the shop.
Those two, he doesn’t joke with them, they’re the women in his life.
A news suddenly popped on the TV and he suddenly stopped laughing, he jumped up from the floor running out of the shop.

“Isme…baby! Baby!!” Axe ran into the shop breathing heavily.
“Did you guys hear the news?” He screamed happily.
Zola also ran into the baking shop after checking on Rebel in her office.
“What news?” Mrs Isme frowned.
“Did something die?” Chloe walked out of the baking room, her face was stained with chocolate cookies.
“Wait…you weren’t able to buy the ice cream?” Whitney ran out as well on hearing his voice.
“Turn on the TV” Axe ordered and Mrs Vanessa did so quickly.
“Breaking news, the new government of Denim set out grant national pardon about Fifteen thousand inmates from Denim’s federal prison” A female journalist read.
“After fifteen good years?” Tears strimmed down Rebel’s eyes.
The door to the baking shop opened and Sammie ran in.
“Did you guys hear the news?” He asked pa-nting heavily.
“Yes….” Rebel screamed running out of the shop in tears.
She grabbed her phone making an urgent call.
“Prepare my Jet, I’ll be going to Denim” She ordered over the phone.

“What does the news mean?” Whitney asked curiously.
“It means that you might finally get to see your father for the first time” Sammie announced.
Axe consoled Isme and Zola who had just broken down.
“After fifteen years, my father will definitely get to see the light of the day again” Zola screamed crying emotionally.
“We all have to go” Sammie mumbled.
“You’re right” Mrs Vanessa smiled.
“We hope he’s among the fifteen thousand people” She added.
“If he isn’t then they’ll be no hopes of coming out” Axe muttered.

DENIM******FEDERAL PRISON HOUSE.
Rebel and the rest waited patiently, they were waiting outside the prison house.
She wore a hat that covered her face and in addition, she was putting on some shades.
She watched as some family happily reunited.
Tears slide down her eyes.
They waited for one more hour and were about to give up when a figure suddenly stepped out of the gate.
He was a shadow of his former self, his hairs were gray, his beards unshaved, he looked skinny.
“Daddy….” Zola screamed running to him with all her might.
Rebel burst into tears running as well together with her twins.
Zola suddenly jumped on Matteo making him to land on the floor.
“Daddy…” She smiled happily dampening his cloth with her tears.
“Zola?” Matteo gasped when three more people jumped on him.
“Bell?” He smiled happily.
“You didn’t age” He added.
“I told you they were right, i definitely look like him” Whitney stucked her tongue at Chloe.
“Daddy carry me” Chloe whined, her words made Matteo to turn to them.
“Who are they?” He mumbled.
“They’re yours” Rebel said crying and he suddenly fell to his knees engulfing them in his embr@ce.
“I’m a father of three?” He smiled weakly.
“Dad I’m more pretty right?” Whitney pouted.
“Hell no!!!” Chloe screamed.
“You both are my angels” Matteo smiled caressing their cheeks and the arguments stopped.
“I’m the youngest daddy so carry me” Chloe patted her hand.
“Alright” Matteo smiled lifting her off the floor.
Are you married now Bell?” Matteo turned to Bell who was still crying.
“Why would i when my soulmate was imprisoned” She smiled hu-gging him again.
Isme and the rest having watched the family reunited rushed to receive their own hu-gs.
“Mum” Matteo smiled as Mrs Isme jumped on him.
She said no words, she just kept crying.
“Mother in law” Matteo hu-gged Mrs Vanessa and cracked his knuckle against that of Watson and Axe.
THE END
EPILOGUE
A YEAR LATER.
Matteo and Rebel had already visited the registry collecting a marriage certificate.
“Mum I’ll kill Chloe, she stole my dress” Whitney screamed walking down the flight of stairs.
“No…no..no, don’t kill your sister, have the maids get you a new one” Matteo responded from the livingroom.
“I told you to ignore them, those two can’t grow up” Rebel hissed.
“Are you insulting my darlings in my present” Matteo frowned making Rebel to jump up from his lap.
“They’re also my children love, i just said ignore them, they’re stressing you” Rebel pouted.
“I refuse to ignore” He yammered.
“Chloe…” He screamed and Chloe ran all the way to the living room.
“Yes darling” she drawled
“He’s my darling not yours” Rebel warned.
“So should i get mine?” She whined.
“What?” Matteo jumped from his seat making them all to crack up.
“I was just joking” Chloe chuckled.
“Thought you wanna scold her?” Rebel reminded Matteo.
“Me? Scold? When?” Matteo frowned making Rebel’s jaw to drop
“I’m giving you girls my card, spend all you want” he mumbled.
“You’re the best” Whitney ran jumping on him.
“Make sure you buy the dress she borrowed” Matteo ordered.
“You’re spoiling them” Rebel pouted.
The door snapped open and the entire family and friends tropped in.
“No way….” Rebel jumped from the couch running to hu-g someone.
“Jolie…you’re back” she screamed happily.
“Aunty Jolie” The twins left their dad rushing to her.
“No way…you guys wanna kill me with surprises”
“Celia….” Rebel rushed to Celia who just walked in with her husband.
“Surprise” she screamed hu-gging Rebel back.
“We’re also here yunno!!!” Kimmy pouted, she also came with her parents.
“Oops, sorry” Rebel pouted pecking her cheeks.
“Kimmy….” The twins screamed happily drawing her with men, heading upstairs.
“Don’t watch movies” Monarch screamed after her.
Rebel and the rest cracked up in laughter.
“We are here….” Wren screamed happily dragging her boy in.
“That boy look like Watson” Matteo frowned on seeing him.
“He’s Watson’s son” His mum replied in form of a whisper.
“But….”
“Don’t worry, we’ll gossip later” His mum cut him off with a smile.
“Joe….” Rebel smiled on seeing him.
“You’re now big” she added.
“Aunty Bell, no i mean honey” He smiled, she’s his mother’s only friend who he likes.
“Honey?” Matteo charged at him.
“He mean no harm, he’s just a kid” Wren chuckled.
“Like father like son, Rebel is mine alone” Matteo barked.
Everyone burst into laughter, Wren didn’t pick offence so she joined them in laughter.
“I hate ladies talk” Joe hissed as Rebel and her friends began gossiping.
“Let’s go and have fun or talk outside, we’re the only men here” Joe said to Sammie, Axe and Matteo making them to crack up.
“You ain’t a man Joe” Matteo chuckled.
“Daddy….” They suddenly heard screams from upstairs.
“Whitney wanna kill me” Chloe screamed.
“I’m coming” Matteo ran heading upstairs.
“Dad will give himself an heart attack” Zola chuckled walking in with Luke.
“I swear” Rebel chuckled.
“Welcome to our humble abode Luke” She added.
“Thanks ma’am” Luke smiled.
“Food is ready”
They heard the cook’s voice.
They headed to the dining room where they had their breakfast, talking about old times and chuckling when the nee-d arises.
