Chapter 94 - One Year Old

"Tally! The photographer is already on his way are you dressed yet?" called Minjae from my living room.

I winced and hissed in pain as I cut my leg with the razer from being startled, "in a minute."

I sighed as I wiped the blood and placed a band aid over it giving up on my legs then unwrapped my hair.

I had gotten a silk press yesterday after picking up the kids and brough them to the salon with me to get their hair done.

Adrian's hair was so long and it was now just as curly as Adriel's and the lady offered to cut it, but I told her no for I liked it that way.

Adriel's hair was also very long and her curls were so beautiful and the hairdresser really did her hair nice.

She looked like a princess and she seemed to like it so it was good.

I had gotten a silk press for the first time in my life and my hair  was way longer than I thought when straightened but I had my ends clipped so it was by my butt now but it was still pretty long.

My hair had grown a few inches longer while I was pregnant for I didn't bother it as much.

The length was about to my mid back when I  checked before I was pregnant but now it was at my lower back before straightened.

It was a lot to care for my hair and twin's so I would hardly give it attention and would always wear it in a high puff, but my neck hurt everyday and so did my head.

I liked how light my hair felt as I ran my fingers through it loving this new look.

"Atalia!" I heard Minjae called sounding frustrated and I rolled my eyes.

"What is it boy!?" I yelled back as I untied my robe and got to applying lotion to my body.

I waked past the mirror on my way to my closet and got a glimpse of my naked body.

The scar of my C-section has faded a over the past year, but it was still there and It was very much visible to me.

I haven't found it in me yet to wear tops that will show my belly for I have grown even more self conscious and insecure.

My ass and boobs did grew during pregnancy and I had gained a little weight, but my mom still complains that I'm too skinny.

I had a stomach and flabby arms.

I was far from skinny.

I sighed as I traced the line of the scar remembering the days the twins were born for how has it already been a year?

I walked away from the mirror feeling angry at it as if it was lying about my appearance and finished the journey to my closet picking out my clothes.

I decided to keep it simple since the emphasis was on the twins and went with a royal blue flowy dress with a high slit up the side.

Nothing fancy.

I had already gotten my makeup done so all that was let was to put my dress and shoes on then its picture tine.

I exited my room smiling at the people that were waiting on me, "it is fine thy loyal subjects. The queen has arrived."

Lia scoffed and rolled her eyes dragging me towards the couch to touch up my makeup, "its not about you child. Come here. Let me see you."

She placed a towel over my dress before dusting some face powder over my face and redid my lipstick.

She even got the flat iron and added some waves to my hair and honestly I looked better.

"Oh wow." I said as I looked in the mirror loving my face.

"Wow indeed. That smoky eye shadow really brings out the hazel in your eyes. I've said this before, but Tally you're really beautiful." said Lia staring at me in awe and I blushed.

"Stop. You're gonna make me fall for you and you already are an engaged woman." I teased and she chuckled.

"Will you two stop flirting and Lia could you help me with my shirt please." said Minjae struggling with the cuff of his shirt.

"Gotta go. The baby needs help." said Lia and I chuckled.

I removed the towel from over my shoulder and walked over to where the kids were.

"Hello babies. Happy Birthday little monsters." I cooed at them.

"Hi baby Heesungie. Three more months and you two will be one. You babies are turning into big monsters huh?" I said as I tickled them and they laughed.

"Mama mama yeppeo (pretty)." babbled Adriel as she tried to touch my face.

"Mama is pretty?" I asked in baby voice, "Adrielie is pretty. Pretty monster."

"And you my princes are handsome. Are you guys ready for the photoshoot?"

They nodded their heads and they screamed which I'm guessing is a yes and I chuckled as I heard the front door opened and in came the photographer.

Minjae greeted him and I smiled at him as he walked by me to set up.

Since I had moved into a new and bigger place and I had suggested to do the photoshoot hear since it would be cheaper and better for the kids.

They had been behaving them selves the entire day so lets just hope that they stay that way until after the photoshoot.

Lia, Minjae, Heesung, the twins and I were all color coordinated and we all looked lovely in photo.

We managed to get some good shots of all of us doing different poses with my showing off my dress and flashing my hair before one baby started crying that set off  chain reaction.

It was sign that they needed an outfit change so we did and gave the twins solo shots with the prince and princess them and Lia consoled Heesung.

Two of my favorite concepts were the Korean Hanbok (traditional dress) and the Jamaican colors and bandana.

We even got Heesung to wear the Hanbok for a few shots, but then he cried again.

I wanted them to have a picture to remind them of their heritage when they are older.

After solo shots of the twins with their cakes, number one balloon and in all of their different concepts it was finally time for the shots with me and them.

I had changed into one of my business suits and my hair was in a pony tail and I also dressed the twins in business suits and they were so cute and behaved well.

They smiled and showed their teeth to the camera standing and walking around on their own.

Lia and Minjae and Heesung took some photos as well that they will frame as a family photo and it was not time for the final shots with all the babies.

They were all wearing matching cow outfits and it was the cutest thing. 

The photo shooting session was over and we said goodbye to nice man then got changed for the dinner.

We had a really nice time out first eating at a fancy restaurant then closed the night off at the fair.

It was a really fun day and I know that the Twins enjoyed it for they were passed out like drunk man by the time we got home.

I smiled as I trucked them in and watched them for a few seconds as the slept.

I really made these beautiful babies and I would do it all over again.

Probably not with all the pain and stress, but you get the idea.

They were literally my heart in human form.
