Chapter 12

664 Words
Sienna's POV I wake up when Asher is in the shower. We are still sharing a room even though I can walk and do my own chores by myself. I never asked him and he never moved out. So I let it be. Because if there is a place I feel whole and safe, then it is Asher's presence. Sometimes I think back at our timeline and I laugh. Sometimes, I cry. Sometimes I feel regret. Sometimes I feel blessed. But most of the time, I feel safe. Because it's Asher. My pillar of strength. I wouldn't have survived many stages of my life if it wasn't for Asher. f**k, I was even ready to marry him at one point. "Are you sure you still don't feel anything for him?" Hayley asks me and I don't answer her. Because things between Asher and me were always complicated. We fight. We reconcile. We decided to marry. We break off the engagement. We do so many but at the end of the day, we don't let it get in our way. I don't know what to call that bond. But I definitely know it's not friendship and it's not love either. It's something beyond and I am afraid I am going to lose that bond with Asher this time even with one wrong move. I go to the nursery to check on the babies. They woke up early in the morning and it took both Asher and I an hour to put them back to sleep again. Deedee is crawling but Gigi is not. It is totally alright considering Gigi is five months younger than Deedee. Sometimes I look at them and wonder if they should know about Avery and Logan. Because Asher told me that it was a bad idea. And it can ruin the mechanism we four have as a family now. Maybe it is true, because as far as I know.. Deedee is my daughter too. I might have not given her birth but the moment I saw her, I took her in my arms and fed her my milk.. she became just like Gigi to me. Gigi has the habit of stirring in her sleep and it is starting to affect their sleep in the same crib so we bought them both different ones. Moreover they are growing up. It is illegal for babies to grow this fast but here we are. I walk back to the room again and Asher is already out of the shower. He has a towel hanging loosely around his torso and his hair still dripping wet. I don't say anything as I just walk towards my wardrobe and pick a dress. Today is my first day as a Gamma after a really long gap. I should be nervous but if anything, I am excited. I cannot wait to be The Gamma again. In my entire life, I was the most happiest when I was serving as The Gamma. Because to me, being Gamma means carrying my dad's legacy. Carrying his ambition. And because I am a Gamma, I feel like I get to feel my father that way in everything that I do. Not only that, but I really enjoy doing every single chore or duty when it is related to my title. Because I like being The Gamma Sienna. "So are you excited?" Asher asks and I turn around to look at him. "Very much" I whisper, walking to the bathroom without even sparing another glance. I don't know if my hormones are going crazy or if Asher has gotten hotter but either way... I am being tortured every single day. A/N Sorry for the short chapters. But hey! Today is my birthday and I turn 25. Wow. The next 4 - 5 chapters will be short as well. But later on, get ready for the party because it is all about Sienna and Asher! (In lengthy chapters, of course. Tell me what you think!)
