Chapter 50
Anya felt annoyed because of what Andrius did to her earlier. She forgot that the same thing happened on the young man’s yacht five years ago. And the fact that Andrius seemed happy to he did, added to her annoyance.
She was busy watching Andrius and their son when someone put things next to her. When she shifted back at them she was surprised at what she saw. Sofia Vergara was next to her with her children.
“Hi! Long time no see,”Sofia greeted her with a hesitant smile. Anya blinked a few times, feeling shocked. She did not expect to meet them again.
“Ahm…”Anya did not know what to say. She stood up to pay homage to them as she glanced at Andrius unaware of what was happening.
“Hi, Miss Anya!”Another one greeted Anya. When she looked at it, she realized it was one of her students.
“Athena? Hi!”She was hesitant. She glanced at Sofia who was just watching them.
Sofia immediately hugged the child and turned to her with a smile.”My daughter is one of your students, Anya. Anyway, that’s a different story. Where’s Andrius?”she said and roamed the eyes all over the place. Sofia smiled when she saw the young man in the deep part of the ocean.”Andrius! Big brother, we’re here!”she shouted as she waved to Andrius who was busy teaching Atreus.
Sofia did not fail and she immediately caught Andrius’attention. He immediately smiled and went back to the shore with his son.
Andrius could see how his sister’s eyes widened. Even his nephews reacted the same way. He wanted to laugh at the way they looked but he restrained himself.
“Oh, my gosh!”Sofia whispered as she stared at his son. Confused, she also stared at Anya who was embarrassed while head down.
“He’s my son, Sofia. His name is Atreus.”Andrius was happy to introduce Atreus. He was a proud dad. It was very obvious.
Anya was happy with the pleasure seen on Andrius’sister’s face. She smiled knowing that they accepted her son in an instant.
“Tito Andrius, he looks like you. How cute,”said Athena as she approached Atreus.
“Mommy, I want a new baby, too. Can we have one?”one of the triplets said, looking at Sofia innocently
“Oh, my gosh! Stop me with that new baby. My head hurts from you all,”Sofia complained as she fainted and just sat on the sand.”Wait, where is your Daddy?”she asked as she looked around.
Even Andrius and Anya also looked for Sofia’s husband-Zeus. They found him busy hauling equipment from their parked vehicle.NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
“I’m going to help Zeus, baby,”Andrius said goodbye to his sister. He turned to Anya and stared at her intently.”I’m going to help, Zeus. I will call your Dad, too. We’re going to have breakfast here,”he said goodbye, while there was concern in his eyes. Anya nodded and let him go.
When Andrius and Zeus finished preparing, Anya was amazed. They seemed to be preparing for a beach outing. They were carrying a large beach canopy tent with eight seats and a foldable table. They also carried large plastic ice boxes. They were also starting to grill the fish they bought somewhere. While her Pappi helped the two, Anya knew he was uncomfortable with what he was doing.
“We didn’t really bother. Andrius seemed in a hurry and excited. That’s all we brought,”Sofia informed Anya. The two of them sat as they watched the children play on the beach.
“Ahm, you brought too much,”Anya said embarrassed.
Sofia laughed so Anya turned her gaze to her. Sofia was staring at her intently. Anya was stunned. Suddenly, she felt nervous about what was going to happen.
“Don’t be. I should be ashamed of you for what I did before. I’m insensitive and I act out of logic. I’m sorry, Anya. If I just know, I wouldn’t do that to you,”Sofia said apologetically. She held Anya’s hand.”I know what you went through was difficult. I’ve been there too. I also went through without my son’s father next to me. I’m sorry, Anya,”she added.
“It’s okay. I understand if you were angry with me before. What I did was really annoying. I can’t blame you, Miss Sofia,”Anya said, sincerely.
Sofia who was in front of her smiled so she also smiled back.
“I only want one thing now, Anya. Now, that Andrius found you… Please, don’t hurt my brother anymore,”Sofia said and looked at the beach.”Look at him. He’s very happy with your son. My brother deserves a happy family, Anya. He has been sad for a long time. I hope you will think about it,”she added.
Anya followed what Sofia was looking at, and it was as if someone touched her heart when she saw Andrius playing with Atreus and his nephews. He was smiling and looked happy.
“I understand,”Anya said before nodding.
Sofia smiled at her response. Sofia looked at her brother who was busy playing with the kids. Her brother looked very happy and it made her happy too. This time she knew it would last.

Everyone was busy. Mens were grilling sea foods while women were chit chatting nonstop. They happily shared the prepared food.
Andrius was busy with his son. He spooned him.”After we eat. We’re going to my unit, okay. Atreus wanted to go. Right, baby?”Andrius whispered to Atreus. They were just next to each other while Atreus was on his thighs.
Anya raised an eyebrow when Atreus did not answer what Andrius said. When she looked at his son, his small eyes looked up at his father. But, Andrius just smiled at him.
“Yes, daddy!”Atreus answered.
Anya felt Andrius’shoulder shake. She stared at him because she knew he had done something foolish again. But, Andrius just shook his head while looking at her, suppressing a silly grin.
Anya was about to speak when her Pappi suddenly pushed her to the side. They were eating with him side by side. She turned to look at her father. He motioned for her to come and she immediately obeyed.
“What’s the visit to the unit? Hey, Anya. I’m telling you!”her father whispered to her afterwards.
“Eh, Pappi I’m-“Anya answered him.
“Please, Pappila, can we go?”
There was nothing else Pappi would say but to agree.
All was happening so fast. After they ate, everyone rested a little before Andrius’sister agreed to go home.
“Come on, baby. It’s already lunch time,”Andrius commanded.
Anya glared at Andrius. She was busy putting Atreus’clothes in a handy bag. She even brought it for her too. Andrius not only wanted a simple visit but also a sleep-over with them. She would have complained and would not come but when she saw her child’s sadness because of what she said, she suddenly felt guilty.
“It’s your fault. You’re very good at your dirty tactics Mr. Monterio,”she said as she lifted the bag with the dress. Anya was about to pass Andrius out of the room when he stopped her and leaned against the wall.
“I am. And until now, you’re still mine,”he replied as he slowly bent closer to her face, claiming her lips.
