Cold Showers — Chapter 45

Evening Time.

The Millers' Mansion.

Vanessa Miller was having dinner with her husband and her girls when a question crossed her mind.

"Have you girls congratulated your brother?"

"Why?"

"For what? Did he buy a new car?"

Olivia and Amelia asked respectively.

Vanessa took a glance at her husband before she spoke. She thought Sebastian would have told them about it.

"Maybe I should let Sebastian tell you guys himself," Vanessa concluded and continued eating her food.

"Why mom? tell us. We are anxious to know." Olivia bugged.

"I agree with Olivia, If it's good news we'll love to know," Amelia added.

"Okay," Vanessa placed down her cutlery.

"Your father and I are going to be grandparents."

The girls were shocked, Olivia looked from her mom to her Dad who nodded, confirming what his wife just said.

"Wow." She said after a while. "That means Amelia and I are going to be aunties," Olivia said with a smile.

"That's if the person claiming to be pregnant for our brother is saying the truth and not just a gold digger like Susan," Amelia pointed out.

"Can you just be positive for once?" Albert said to his elder twin daughter who internally grumbled. No one got a hint of what she said.

"Mom, Dad, Don't mind Amelia. She has always been jealous of all the women Sebastian has been with."

"Anything that makes you sleep at night. Excuse me," Amelia picked up her plate which had some leftovers in it and her glass of orange juice and then she walked out of the dining room.

"I thought she would at least be happy for Sebastian." Vanessa muttered as she went back to her food."

"Like always, she will come around. Let's just give her time to digest the news."

"But Mom, Dad, this girl is for real right? She loves my brother and the baby she's expecting is Sebastians'" Olivia asked hopefully. She was as crushed as Sebastian when they found out Susan's intention. She wouldn't want any of her loved ones to go through that again, most especially her brother, Sebastian.

"Yes, Yes, Yes," Vanessa replied.

"But we will leave it to Sebastian to tell you more about it," Albert said.

Olivia nodded in understanding and proceeded to devour her grilled chicken.

...........................................

After clearing the table, and catching up with some funny talks with her mom, Olivia Miller returned to her room, took a shower and changed into her comfy nightdress. She was about to call it a night when she decided to call her brother to congratulate him.

Sebastian picked after a few rings.

"Am I speaking to the most amazing father to be in the world? the one who refused to inform his sister that she was going to be an aunt." Olivia teased.

Sebastian chuckled from the other side. "I'm sorry for not telling you sooner Liv. A lot has been going on in the past few days."

"No problem. I called to congratulate you but at the same time I'm worried."

"Worried about what?" He asked concerned.

"The girl you are with. You love her right? And I hope she feels the same way about you. She's not like Susan, right? I don't want you to go through another heartbreak."

Sebastian smiled, he could hear the concern in his younger sister's voice.

"There's nothing to be worried about, Olivia. I finally found the right girl and she's the one I want to send the rest of my life with."

"Congratulations then, If you're happy, I'm also happy for you." She said to him.

"Thanks, Liv." Sebastian smiled. "So I assume Mom and Dad didn't tell you who the person is.

"No. They said they will leave it to you to tell Amelia and I" Olivia replied.

"Okay, Let's just say you know the person and you see her almost every day," Seb said.

"Sebastian, you know I'm not good at guessing." She groaned.

"Okay, She's Lilian's best friend." He announced.

"Our cousin, Lilian? Lilian's best friend??" Olivia thought for a while and then it hit her.

"Oh My God!, Seriously? Wait, are you for real?" She asked, surprised.

"Yes dear," Sebastian answered proudly.

"Oh my God!!!!!" Olivia screamed in excitement. Sebastian burst into laughter as he removed his phone from his ear for a while.

"How? Where? When? I've been working with Jayda recently and I see her almost 100 times in a day. I even run errands for her and she never said anything to me." Olivia said at a go.

"Jayda is so perfect for you. How come you are this lucky? How did you guys even meet? How come I never knew about this?" Olivia added. Even though she was surprised about everything, She was glad Jayda was the one carrying her brother's child. She wouldn't have asked for a better person for her brother than Jayda.

Sebastian chuckled, "Calm down, miss." He could picture Olivia walking up and down her room, rambling on the phone and that was exactly what she was doing.

"It's a long story, Olivia. I fucked up along the way because of my fear of getting hurt again. But Jayda forgave me and now we are planning on making things work between us."

"She didn't know you were my Sister until recent. I love Jayda and I plan to spend the rest of my life with her." Olivia held back happy tears. She could feel the happiness in her brother's voice and that made her extremely happy.

"I wish I could hug the hell out of you right now Seb. I'm so happy for you and at the same time I'm so proud of you." Liv confessed as she plopped down on her bed.

Sebastian smiled, "Thanks, Sis. Now that you know about everything, don't go around bugging Jayda."

Olivia giggled, "Don't worry, I won't."
