Chapter 67 - Older and Wiser

Merlin was no longer the fresh faced newly-wed. Time had caught up with him.

as it had with Freya.

They no longer had any little children. Even the twins had now started school and their little dolls had come to life.

Dominic had named his doll Jerri and gave her the special potion prepared by Albin his grandfather all those years ago.

Naomi had named hers Emma and gave her the last potion made by Albin.

Happily the neighbourhood was used to little people turning up with odd colourings since Freya had arrived all those years ago. They went to live with Clark Lutz who seemed to enjoy his role as guardian.

He now looked after the three imaginary dolls who had become real little girls. Clark's long term girlfriend, Latonya Fong had tired of waiting for Clark to propose and had popped the question herself. He had said yes and the couple were now planning their wedding.

Gwen had announced she was pregnant to her family who were delighted.

Both Gwen and Youssef were very excited at the prospect of becoming parents.

Marie Curie was pregnant again from Jordan, although their relationship seemed to under pressure. 

Marie Curie had moved out of her parents house to her own house more towards the centre of town. 

Jordan had opted to stay where he was. This has caused numerous arguments in the street. He seemed reluctant to commit and Marie Curie was losing patience.

Their first little boy Galileo was now toddling around and getting into everything, happily Marie Curie's family were able to lend a hand looking after him.

Finally the time arrived and Gwen gave birth to a little boy whom she named Poldark.

Charli was exicted to go and visit her newest grandchild and Gwen was so happy to have her Mum meet Poldark. 

Charli had been having a lot of health issues lately and they all wondered how long she might be with them.
