The CEO's Return (Tracy and Alex)

Alex

"You are in big trouble man, we should be rejoicing and I should be congratulating you now, but then look what your pride has caused," James said after I explained everything to him.

"Shouldn't you be trying to help me find a solution?"

"Solution to what? You did something wrong, why should I be the one to find the solution for you?, I should be boasting about being a godfather to two lovely children now, you snatched that opportunity from me and you are expecting me to help you find a solution to your mess?"

"Well yes, should I mess everything up more than I already did?"

"You are such a crazy dude."

"I know, now would you please help me?."

"Sure, what does Tracy like?, Clothes, shoes, bags?"

"Tracy is not that kind of girl, she is not obsessed with clothes, shoes, or bags, all she wants is to be seen as the strong person she is, to be loved in her weakness, the littlest thing gets her excited, take her to an aquarium or park, buy her ice cream from the sprinklers make it chocolate, cuddle with her, watch movies with her even if she'd finish the popcorn before you get fifteen minutes into the movie, play games with her and compliment her, get her books and listen to her complain about each character in the book, oh lord what have I done I miss my wife so much!"

"Listen to yourself sounding like a pathetic writer, you described her as an easy-going and simple lady but you said those harsh things to her, I pray she forgives you."

"What do you think I should do?"

"I'm not sure, buy the things she likes, and some things for the kids, visit them and try to talk it out with her."

"I pray that works."

"You'd be visiting them tomorrow then."

"Yes, I would."

I barely had any sleep that night because I was anxious, I kept practicing what I'd tell Tracy and my children, during this process I realized I didn't know their name, I scolded myself for being a bad father, then I continued practicing what I'd say to them.

I woke up early, not like I got any sleep but then I woke up early, James accompanied me to the gift store and assisted me in getting gifts for my kids, I got books for my wife.

I had to go to Tracy's place alone because James refused, he said he didn't want Tracy to see him with me yet. I dropped by the sprinklers and got chocolate ice cream with chocolate toppings, hoping the twins would like it."

I left the gifts in the car, carrying the ice cream alone, I said a silent prayer and I pressed the doorbell, Tracy opened the door a few seconds after, when she saw me

"What do you want?" She asked glaring

"About everything."
