"Well,... I'm sorry for delaying you. ..... I just don't know how to explain to you and you won't get angry" I said, still fidgeting.

"Say it anyhow. I don't have all day". "Yes, sir. Yes, sir." I rushed out.

I swallowed hard.

"I'm looking for a way to convince mom. I don't know if you can call me when you are less busy. Sir, I don't need you to talk to me, I just want the timer to count that we spoke for a while. If you are less busy sir. You can even use your unimportant number to call me sir" I rattled on.

I closed my eyes tightly as I said those words. My ears were so ready to hear a very calm or loud shout of insult. Either of the two, my heart was already prepared. "OK".

I heard him say and he ended the call. "Huh?" I asked myself.

It seems as if I just heard wrong. Did he just agree to my plan? I didn't want to jubilate much. I sat there looking at my phone, and soon, my phone rang. It was my father-in-law. I jumped for joy, and then my baby kicked. I rubbed my stomach. "Sorry, baby. Mommy is just too happy," I said with a smile. I picked up the call. "Hello sir,....."

I didn't hear any sound from the other side. I know he has stuck to the plan. I put my phone on the table and then went to look for something to eat. Even though this doesn't mean that my father in-law accepted me, at least it would settle his home and I could go to mine peacefully.

Amidst the call, I could see Jaylen's number too blinking. I didn't want to pick the call so I won't end the other. I was looking at the timer reading ten minutes. I felt like that was enough for a heartfelt apology to be said. But then I was also having doubts about me ending the call. As if we were thinking in the same line, the call ended. I then breathe out in relief.

I quickly called Jaylen back.

"Hey Jay!"

"Baby, did they also restrict you from picking my calls?"

I smiled as I heard Jay's complaining voice. He sometimes whines like a child. None will know that their almighty Alpha can be such a baby.

"C'mon Jay. I was on call" I laughed.

"Oh! I had thought they didn't want you to communicate with me".

I laughed at his words.

"I think our wedding gift has started to come in," he said.

Wedding gift? Well, Jay is an Alpha. If it was meant to be me, I don't think I would receive gifts. I barely mingle. Jay and I didn't want an elaborate wedding but then his mother wouldn't accept it. She's really happy planning this wedding.

I sat by her when she was writing her list of invitees and I was quite shocked. I didn't know that someone could know so many people.

As Jay and I spoke, Jaylen's mother walked in. She looked so excited with what she held that I wondered what it was. I looked at it with such attention that I even forgot to acknowledge her presence.

"Can you smell the fragrance?" She grinned.

I shook my head. "What's in there?"

I ran to her with so much enthusiasm.

"Calm down and sniff it," she said with a bright smile.

I quickly listened to her. I put my nose closer to the package she held. A nice smell came to my nose.

"I can smell honey and lime. It's very nice" I said, looking at her inquisitively.

"Of course, it'll be nice. What I hold in here is duracare." She sat down and smiled at the package in her hands.

Well I'm a very poor one and I don't know about expensive things so this didn't make me jubilant as she expected. Jay's mother pouted like a little child.

"You are not happy? You won't be able to imagine the stress I went through just to get you this limited package".

I smiled and hugged her." I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to make you unhappy. I don't know the brand. That's why".

"You don't know duracare? x she looked shocked.

I nod my head. She patted my head gently and smiled.

"Don't worry. You'll know all the expensive brands later. I had wished to have a daughter so that we'll talk about these things together. So now that you are here we'll do a lot together" she said happily.

I nodded and smiled. She's just always excited like my mother. I know if it was my mother she would know this duracare brand. She started showing me the product. It was so interesting talking to her. Then her phone rang but she ignored it. "Mom, ain't you going to pick?" I asked.

"He shouldn't call me until he put aside his ego and does what he's told to do," she said, picking up a shampoo.

"Mom....."

She interrupted me.

"Sam, you see this shampoo, it will make your hair more silky. If Jaylen sees you, he'll want to sleep with them".

I smiled at her softly.

"Dad called me today?"

"Your dad? What did he say?" She concentrated.

"Not my dad. Your husband....."

She looked at me with unbelieving eyes.

"I'm serious. We talked at length".

I took my phone and showed her the call history. Well smart me already deleted the call I made before so she won't know I was the one that called him first. Seeing the history, her look became calm.

"I don't like the way you've been treating him. He doesn't look happy".

"Then he should have done what I told him earlier" she said with a stubborn look.

"No, you were the one who misunderstood him. He had wanted to come to me with you but you won't even listen to him" I gave a stiff smile.

I know that my plan would work if Jay's father didn't ruin it. I could see that Jay's mother's eyes were already softened. She looked quite guilty. "You should call him".

I picked up her phone and gave it to her. I want a peaceful marriage. She took it and then called her husband.
