Chapter 63: 63 63: Try to move on, it's free

It's been two weeks since Novie came back from Vegas, she still doesn't know how she got home, all she remembered was Daniella yelling at her and everything went black when she opened her eyes she's in her room in her pajamas.

She thought it was a dream at first but later found her engagement ring on her desk with a note. She cried a river when she felt that it was so familiar.

Indeed it was, Ken left her a note just like she did five years ago, but the message he left was different than her.

'Novie, meeting you was the best thing that ever happened to me. Hope you will find your happiness''

Short message yet so touching, it's full of feelings and instead of sulking somehow her feelings lifted, thinking that Ken must have forgiven her for hurting him.

But even so, her heart is still broken and just like five years ago, she sat on the roof with the diary she bought five years ago.

She reread everything she wrote, one page per day, hoping that she will find a way to forget him or at least remove the pain.

The triplets left with Selena and Anders taking all of Ken's clothes, though he left his car for Brent.

She misses the triplets but she knows it will be impossible to see them again, their lives are so different than her.

Her father kept on complaining why did the triplets have to leave if the issue was between her and Ken.

But what she misses the most was Ken, she often calls Anders to ask about Ken but the man said Daniella forbid him to say anything and she understands it.

Novie lay on the roof and stared at the night sky. She suddenly thought of John, the man was not back in the school since she came back. She doesn't know his number, therefore, she could not call him to check if he's all right.

She sighed and got up, she already spent an hour in the roof, she crawled her way back to the ladder and found the ladder on the ground, besides it was her father standing, both hands were on his hips, staring to her direction.

"Pa, I need the ladder" she yelled at him, the man crossed his arms and even in the dark, she can see the anger in his face.

"Instead of sulking there why don't you go out and find a husband. I want grandchildren" her father yelled back and walked out.

Novie sighed and shut her eyes, her parents have been urging her and Brent to starts a family but she doesn't have a plan to get married if it's not Ken, she had accepted her faith. She will be one of those single teachers who will die single.

"Ma, I need the ladder" Novie yelled, minutes later her mother came out and leaned the ladder against the wall, as she set her feet on the ground, her mother hit her head.

Novie looked at her in shock and massaged her head, it was really painful.

"Ma! What is wrong you? Papa just yelled at me and you hit me, am I really your kid?" she complained and marched to the door with heavy feet.

Her mother followed her, yelling at her.

"You need to find a husband Novie, you can't live here forever" Mary complained.

Novie rolled her eyes and turned to her parents.

"Look, I know you're all doing this so I will go back to Ken, but we break up ok? Try to move on, it's free" she spoke in sarcasm and walks to the stairs.

Before she reached the last steps, she could hear her mother whimpering.

"Does she know how hard is it to move on? Ken is such a perfect son in law. Oh goodness! Novie where's your brain?" her mother's voice roared all the way to her room.

Novie closed the door and slumped her body on the bed. As she closed her eyes, Ken's figure popped up.

"I miss you Ken" she murmured silently and fell asleep.

Ken seated behind his desk while his fingers are busy tapping on the keyboard. Thankfully, Daniella has been dealing with his business and It seems to grow even more in just a short time, though he's still baffled and sometimes stuttered when some of the board asked him something he doesn't know, like the previous conversation they had.

Peyton pretended to be him which made it hard for him to adjust, he sighed and closed the laptop when he felt his head aching badly.

He pushed the intercom and called his secretary.

"Mrs. Flores, can you check if Silvo is back" he spoke and sighed. He arranged his right man Silvo to gathered all the information of the people he killed, he have one purpose and it's to apologize to the family even it's impossible.

A knock on the door made him get up, as he was about to walk to the door, it opened and let out the triplets and their brother Danny.

"Uncle Ken!!!" the three screamed at the same time, a warm smile curved up his lips after he saw the triplets bright smile, he squatted and hug them.

After greeting him, the three pulled their body and sat on the couch, Ken turned to Danny who's now eleven years old.

He messes his hair and smiled.

"Wow, you're even taller than your mother" he jokingly said and ask him to sit.

Ken sat on the single couch and wait for the triplets to tell the reason why they are here.

The room became quiet and the four kids stared at him like he was their father.

"Ok kids, I am not a freak like your mother, I can't read mind so you will need to open your mouth and speak" Ken broke the silence, the headache he had earlier disappeared.

"Well" Alexa lowered her head and play with her finger and Ken already has an idea what could have happened.

"Ok, so did you anger your mom?" Ken asked, the three shook their head and smiled.

"Do you want to stay in my house?" He asked once again, the only reason the triplets and Danny visited him was when they wanted to stay in his house.

The three nodded and right there and then, he realized that they must have done something terrible to ask for his shelter.

"If you didn't anger your mom, then who?" his eyes narrowed with suspicion.

"Daddy" the three spoke in rhyme.

Ken raised an eyebrow, even if they made their father angry, the three have a way to make him forget whatever bad things they did.

"What did you do?" he asked, the three lowered their head avoiding his eyes.

When Ken realized that he can't get the answer from them, he turned to Danny who's sitting on the chair behind his desk, pretending to be the Ken Chu.

The boy looked at him in cold eyes, "They prank mommy, they put frogs in the box and gave it to her as a surprise then mommy fell on the stairs while opening it. Uncle Evan got angry and wants to punish them but they pack their luggage and called me. I can't bring them to my house since they always pinched my brother's cheeks so I brought them here" Danny explained and catches his breath after the long explanation.

Ken narrowed his eyes, "Is she ok?" he asked in concern.

Danny picked up the photo of him and Novie and replied in a cold tone.

"No, so Uncle Ken, can you look after them? I need a check on mommy" Danny got up and walks to the triplets' direction, he placed a small kiss on each of their heads and walks to the door.

"Behave ok? We don't have anywhere else to go if Uncle Ken throws you out. I will visit you tomorrow" then Danny left his office after saying his goodbye.

Ken turned to the triplets, "Are you hungry? What do you want to eat?" as he said those words, his feet rose and walked to his desk, he grabbed his coat and wallet and extended both hands to the triplets.

When he asked what they want for lunch the three jumped and yelled.

"Ice Cream!!!"
