Chapter 26

While we were on the flight I couldn't even hear Andrea's voice. I think she was still embarrassed that I was the one to go after them. Because she was busy fiddling with Axel's cellphone, I just asked if he wanted us to eat.
"Son, do you want to eat? Maybe you're already hungry," I asked.
"Yes, daddy. I'm hungry now," he said while holding his tummy acting like he was really hungry.
"Okay son, let's just find a restaurant," I said.
I noticed that Andrea stopped fidgeting with her cellphone and said.
"Sir, don't make us too busy with you," she said at the same time to Axel who tried to convince him not to but my son seems to have inherited from me and stands by what he said. So Andrea just sighed, and I smiled as I drove.
I deliberately went to the restaurant so that it would not be rejected, because our son had been teasing him before.
"Mommy let's go. I'm feeling hungry now," he said once, holding his tummy and begging his facial expression.
"Okay but last time Axel was so embarrassing," I said. Because I'm ashamed of what my son will do.
"It's ok Andrea, nothing to worry about. I told you this is part of my courtship with you," I said.
I saw the redness of her cheek. I mean she shuddered at what I said.
"Come on," I added. She just smiled at me before getting out of the car. Axel and I walk first and it follows us. We entered a fine dining restaurant. I also dropped Axel because he wanted to wander around inside. He was amazed at the beautiful designs on the wall of the restaurant. I turned my gaze to Andrea who was busy talking to her. It looks like Tanya is the one she is talking to based on her disgusted voice.
A staff member approached us and assisted us.
"Do you have a reservation, sir?" It's a question.
"No," I answered quickly. "Reserved for 3 seats," I said. Before turning around and looking for vacant seats. While the staff was searching, I simply approached Andrea and told her.
"Are you okay? You look mad," I asked. She glared at me and stopped talking on the cellphone and hid it in her bag.
"Yes sir, no worries," she promised.
"Are you sure?" I asked her again.
She just smiled at me, a sign that she was okay. Then she approached Axel and scolded him because he had accidentally dropped the vase.
"What did you do son?" it's a question.
"I'm sorry mommy, I didn't mean to. It's a sad language.
I have already intervened between the two of them.
"How much is it?" I asked the staff. I'll just pay when it's over and the child is scared.
"Ten thousand sir," the staff replied.
"Ten thousand. Here's my card," I reached here once when it stopped. Pity my son who is scolded by his mommy. I took Andrea away because the child had cried earlier.
"Andrea enough, I paid, that's okay," I said. But she still seems to be getting worse.
"According to you sir, you paid, that child was spoiled so much. Because you give everything, who are you in our lives? Why are you interfering," she shouted. It's just a pain to hear such things from her, I wanted to shout that the child was my child but I restrained myself.
"No. I'm your boss," I said gently. It suddenly turned pale when it heard the word boss. She was so carried away by her emotions that she forgot who I was in her life.
"I'm sorry sir, I didn't mean to raise your voice," she apologized.
"It's ok. Maybe we can eat, right? The child has been hungry for a while and you're still crying," I said.
I picked up the child and wiped away its tears. I was so hurt that I saw my son crying and I had no right to defend him. We sat down and slowly the food was also served.
I asked Axel what else he wanted but the boy refused. He said it was all okay. If I know he just doesn't want to talk as a child, because Andrea has been glaring at him before. I just smiled suddenly, because even though she was angry she was still beautiful in my eyes.
"Why are you smiling daddy?" the child asked in a whisper.
"Nothing," I whispered back as well.
We just whispered because we were both afraid of her amazon mommy, I laughed at his stories when her mommy was angry with her. I didn't think Andrea was like that, at least I remember the first time I stole her a kiss and followed her to the cafeteria, the steak was almost crushed to her dismay. It's just now good luck to me.
She must have noticed that we were whispering and glared at me.
"Sir you've eaten and when we get home," he said and was very bored.
I smiled at her sweetly but she just bent down and went back to eating her food.
While my son is busy eating his food too.
ANDREA
Earlier I was conscious of sir looking at me. I didn't shout at him before, I'm just really embarrassed because he paid for my son's sins. After all, he didn't have to do that. Like when I said we don't get along, he's just my boss and that's all. I also thought that I would babastedin him earlier. I haven’t been able to enter into a relationship yet. My mind is still a mess. There are questions in my past that I still struggle to find the answers to. Especially with Axel's real father, should I look for him so that I can start a new life?.
I looked at the whereabouts of the two and they were like bees whispering. I've been flashing my son before but it looks like he's dead malicious, because his ally is there. Sometimes I'm annoyed with him because I feel like he's invading my privacy too much. I wanted to be annoyed with what he was doing, but there was a part of my heart that kept me from being able to comprehend.
I stopped to think he was staring at me so I asked him.
"Why sir, is there dirt on my face?" I asked because I was even more conscious when I stared at it.
"You're beautiful at all," he said bluntly. I couldn't hide the blushing on my cheeks. So it just laughed suddenly, I bowed in embarrassment. I can't look at him directly, it's serious because sir, isn't the word horn straight to the point crazy here to talk to.
I just continued eating and I didn't even look at him no matter what he called. Until we finished eating I still didn't pay attention to him, he would take care of his life. I was still disgusted with him.
"Mommy are you okay?" my son asked, he must have seen that I hadn't moved before.
"Yes son, mommy is always okay," I said with a smile.
"Are you sure mom, you look bothered," he asked again?. Sometimes I feel like the father inherited my son. He was very inquisitive and always had follow-up questions and didn't seem to believe what I was saying.
"Yes son, shall we go?" I asked him to stop me.
"Yes mom," she replied immediately. We walked together and sir followed us. We got in the backseat and we still had no urine. Axel was already asleep on the flight because we were a bit late at night, I didn't realize we were right in front of my house. Sir came out to open the door for us, because Axel was already asleep I would have lifted him when sir came in and held my hand, I felt like I was on the ground so I immediately removed my hand so that he could lift Axel who is now fast asleep.
I just opened the gate so that he could enter and even the door so that he could climb straight to the top of his room. I, on the other hand, just followed upstairs, sir, right out of the room and we stared at each other. It also took a few minutes until I couldn't communicate with him either, so I just avoided him.
"All right sir if you want to go home, I'll take you downstairs," I said. "I'm not driving you away sir, maybe you should say it again," I added.
He suddenly laughed at what I said. His white and even teeth came out that I only saw now because sir rarely laughed, like once in a blue moon.
