Pregnant With Alpha’s Genius Twins
Chapter 4
#Chapter 4 – Quiz Nation
I wave goodbye to Melissa, my client, as she wipes her eyes and walks to her car. She’s going to be all right – but wow, what an exhausting session.
As she drives away I click my phone open and check my email, pleased to see that the confirmation I was looking for is there. “Boys!” I call, “get your shoes!”
My children clatter around in the living room before spilling into the hallway, Ian hopping on one foot as he pulls on his sneaker. Alvin carries his shoes carefully and sits down to tie his laces. “What’s happening, mama?”
I feign surprise, teasing them. “What, didn’t you want to go to the quiz show?”
“Really, mama?!” Ian’s face lights up and he throws himself against me in a hug. “We can really go?!”
I laugh and hug him back as Alvin joins us. “Well, you earned it, and I could use a break from my work. I contacted the show and it’s all real – you earned your place. Since you qualified together, though, you have to play as one. Are you okay with that?”
“Yes!” they say together, two pairs of bright brown eyes smiling up at me.
“Okay, into the car!” I say, smacking their bums as they pass. Off we go.
“Alvin and Ian Ortega,” the receptionist says, her eyes wide. “This…this is them?”
I nod, a hand on the shoulder of each boy. “Yes,” I say. “Is there a problem?”
“No,” she says, shaking her head, surprise clear on her face. “They’re just so…young. You know,” she tears her eyes away from them and looks at me, “most of the contestants on this show are…adults. Doctors. Lawyers. Educated people.”
“It’s not a mistake!” Alvin chimes in. “We qualified!” He slips his printed-out paper onto the desk. Ian gives the receptionist a gap-toothed grin.
