She's My Sleeping Pill

Chapter 947: FIRST BIRTHDAY I

A month and a half later, the most awaited time of the year for the whole Dumrique family had finally arrived.

There was no space for Valentine's Day anymore because on this day, the triplets were celebrating their first birthday.

Family, friends and even business partners came to bring gifts for the triplets. They needed to schedule their dates on another day.

Initially, Cayenne planned to celebrate the children's first birthday at home but Stefan didn't want too many people to get into their property all at once.

Hence, they decided to hold the party in one of his hotels.

She didn't forget to invite her close friends who worked with her previously in Clover Hotel.

She also made sure to invite Justin's family to the party. Until now, they still got close contact with his family even after he left with his father to study overseas.

Last Christmas, he returned for a short vacation but he had to return immediately as well to complete his school tasks. He has to work hard in order to accelerate to the right school level intended for his age.

But he didn't forget to bring some snacks for Cayenne and her family. He knew that they didn't lack anything in life but it was the only thing he knew that Cayenne will accept.

The party started at 3 o'clock in the afternoon.

Guests started pouring inside the event hall and many children came with their parents as well.

It was Cayenne's intention to have more children during the party, so she specifically mentioned it on the invitation cards that were sent.

Unexpectedly, Belle didn't come, but her brother came along with Andrei and Eli.

The outside world didn't know that Belle was only acting as Luiz's girlfriend but since she has a close relationship with Eli, and her brother seemed to understand Zeki, she had a good position in their hearts.

She was already considered friends to them.

"Where's your sister?" Cayenne asked Neon when she didn't see the beautiful lady with them.

"She's out of town. She'll be back next week but she prepared gifts for your babies," Neon answered properly while handing the gifts to Cayenne. "Happy birthday to your babies. The blue gift is from my sister and the red gift is from me and Andrei. We chose it carefully."

"I appreciate it, you two. Thank you," she accepted it happily and gave it to Cree who was assigned to arrange the gifts. Then she shifted her attention to Eli, "Can I have a bit of your time after the party. I want to discuss something with you."

"Sure. Just approach me later," then Eli gave his gift as well before leading the children to the play area.

Children played to their heart's content while the nannies and bodyguards looked after them.

Today, they didn't have to mind the adults. They didn't have to restrict themselves. They were free!

On the other hand, the Madrigal family was coming late because a certain little girl was throwing a tantrum for the first time.

Travis knocked on the door to his daughter's play room but she refused to open it. "Can you tell Dad what's going on? Dad will be sad if you are sad."

"I just don't want to go anywhere today!" she yelled for her father to hear her outside. "I just want to stay at home and play with Uncle Shein."

Shein, who heard what the princess said, was stupefied. "I'm not playing with you. I'm going to the party!"

"Then, I'll Ethan visit me to play with today!"

"You can't have any boys visit you when I'm not around!" Travis yelled back which brought faint laughters to the people in the living room.

They were all prepared to leave except for Jade.

"Let me speak to her," Jillyanna said and pushed her husband to the side. "You go and bring Raizel to the car first. We'll be there in a minute."

"Got it. You go and have a girl talk with her, and tell her I mean it when I said no boys can visit when I'm not around."

"Yeah. Yeah. I heard you."

Jillyanna didn't know what to do with her husband's overprotective nature. It wasn't really a bad thing, but she was worried that Jade would misunderstand him as someone controlling. She didn't want that to happen.

"Jade, I'll open the door now."

Jade didn't say anything and soon, her mother came into the room. It was Jill's study room when she was a child and they converted it to Jade's play room and study area when she came into their life.

"You know that your Auntie Yen's babies are turning one year old today, right?" Jade nodded silently in response. "And we have received the invitation last week," Jade nodded again, "and Yen is very dear to me just as Stefan with your father. So, tell me. Tell me why you don't want to go. I'm listening."

Jade hesitated to tell her mom the thing that bothered her. Of course, Cayenne and Stefan were family to her already and that goes the same way for their children.

And she knew how much time Cayenne spent in teaching to call her "mom/mama/mommy", so she knew she would be very disappointed.

In the end, knowing that she couldn't lie to her parents, she finally told Jillyanna the truth.

"Oohh, no wonder you kept asking me if Aziel and Jahzara had learned to call their mommy or daddy first," Jill expressed with a helpless smile on her face. "No worries, Yen is not petty."

"I know, but she would still be disappointed if she knows."

After a few minutes of persuasion, Jade finally agreed and went out with her mother.

Jill signaled them not to ask anything, so they didn't do otherwise.

By the time they arrived, it was already past four in the afternoon.

Jade walked slowly next to her mother as they made their way to where Cayenne sat with the triplets.

"Jill!" Cayenne exclaimed happily when she saw her with the rest of her family. "I'm so happy you came! I was just about to send you a video of Jahzara's first word. She said 'mama' first. I was so - "

"Sis."
