Chapter 133

“Miss Leila, we really cannot keep tolerating this, if this happens again, we’ll have to suspend or worse, expel your daughter from the school. We have a zero tolerance policy for violence among students,” the principal of the Bayview Pack preparatory school says to Leila in her office.

Leila frowns and turns to the innocent looking sweetheart chewing on her pineapple candy absentmindedly, dangling her feet from the chair and humming a song to herself.

“We’ll do our best to make her understand that,” she says to the principal before turning to her daughter, Amara. “Apologise to Mrs. Keaton, dear.”

“I’m sorry Mrs. Keaton, for beating up my classmates who tried to bully me.”

“Good girl,” Leila replies sharply, “and what do we do next time it happens?”

“Report to the right authorities,” Amara drawls on her words nonchalantly and Leila chuckles softly, apologising to the principal and takes her out of the

office.

“I shouldn’t have apologised mama,” Amara kicks an empty can of water as they walk to the car park.

Leila looks at her daughter and sighs, her child is the sweetest little munchkin but she has quite the temper and for a child only four years old, she has the strength of a twelve year old, easily able to lift things three to four times her weight, despite not being old enough to have a wolf yet.

Leila crouches in front of Amara and cups her face, her blue eyes staring into. Amara’s distinct golden eyes.

“I know sometimes others are mean to us, with or without reason, but we cannot be the same and violence is not the answer.”

“Are you sure mama?” Amara puts her index finger to her lips, a genuinely confused yet curious expression on her face. “Usually when I beat them up, they don’t bully me anymore.”

Leila stifles her chuckle and ruffles Amara’s hair as she stands up. “Well you heard Mrs. Keaton honey, we can’t do that anymore or we’ll be expelled. What

“Ther sast I don’t have a papa,” Amara says in a low voice, almost whispering her words and Leska’s heart breaks, feeling sad at the words of her daughter

She looks away and blinks back the tears tugging her eyes before she turns to her daughter with a smile

“But you do have a papa

“I know and I told them uncle Key is my papa but they said he cannot be my uncle and my papa. Is that true mama?”

“Hey! Little dove!”

Kelvin calls from the car he is leaning against, waving at the duo walking towards him.

“Uncle Kev!” Amara bolts from Leila’s side, much to Leila’s relief and she runs towards Kelvin with the brightest smile on her lips.

Kelvin catches her and twirls her in the air making Amara giggle.

“Mama, look, I’m flying.”

Leila smiles at them and warmth fills her heart. The bond between Kelvin and Amara is unbreakable, almost like what she has with Kelvin.

She is forever indebted to him, neither her nor Amara would be here today if it wasn’t for him.

After Amara was born, she decided to enrol for a cybersecurity program at a college and Kelvin refused her hiring a babysitter, took care of Amara himself, neglecting his own work for their sake.

“I thought I was your little dove,” Leila says in a coy tone to Kelvin, putting Amara’s backpack and her handbag in the back seat of the car.

“Deal with it old woman, you have been replaced,” Kelvin replies, kissing Amara’s cheek and the little girl blushes before she stretches her tiny hands and cups her mother’s face, smiling at her.

“Don’t worry old mama, you are mama dove, uncle Kev is papa dove and I am a

little dove, a lovely dove family,” Amara announces heartily and chuckles, clapping her tiny hands in excitement.

Kelvin ruffles Amara’s hair roughly and kisses her forehead, smiling at her.

“Uncle Kev doesn’t need to be a papa dove to be a part of your lovely dove family, he can be an uncle dove.”

Leila looks away from them as a bitter feeling envelopes her heart.

It’s not the first time Kelvin is making the point of reminding the child that he is not her father or that he doesn’t want to be, would it actually be such a bad thing?

She takes Amara from Kelvin and she doesn’t miss the way he avoids looking at her eyes.

Why does he reject the idea? She’s sure he has feelings for her so why is he pushing her away? Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

She puts Amara in the back and when she turns around to the passenger seat in front, she freezes at the headline of the newspaper laying on the seat.

Tatum’s engagement to Carmela

It wasn’t there when she left the car moments ago to pick up Amara.

Did Kelvin leave it there for her to see? is that why he is pushing her away? He thinks she still has feelings for Tatum?

She takes the paper and tosses it out of the car, Tatum can go to hell for all she cares, she wants a new beginning with Kelvin.
