Since Kennedy brought Jack into the bedroom, the two of them didn’t come out.
No one knew what they were doing in the room.
Alice thought for a while and opened the door. When she entered the bedroom, she found the two people sitting on the carpet, looking at them.
It seemed like it wasn’t a good time for her to interrupt them, Kennedy and Jack weren’t talking at the moment.
-What are you two doing here? -Alice asked.
At the sound of her voice, Jack rose immediately, and then ran very quickly to her.
-Mother! -cried Berbabé.
Almost managing to reach her leg, Jack stopped abruptly.
Jack stood before Alice, looking at her, and remembered his father’s words.
-From today, do not approach Alice frequently,” Kennedy’s words existed in Jack’s mind.
And after these words, Jack thought it was unfair and asked, -why?
Jack thought, -You are such a bad father, you treat mom so badly, to top it off, you don’t allow me to get close to mom.
Kennedy said in a cold tone, -Didn’t you hear me? Alice is pregnant, don’t act like you did before, don’t cover for her, don’t throw yourself at her. got it?
Jack was very angry, but he had to admit he was right, and he had heard Rachel’s words.
Now mom was weak and needed more care, so he couldn’t act like before that he would ask his mother to embrace him.
-What a drag, Jack thought.
After thinking for a while, Jack declared, “Well, if I can’t do it, neither can you. I’m a kid, but you’re an adult, you can’t go near Mom.
With his words, Kennedy furrowed his brow.
-I’m measured,” Kennedy denied.
-No!” Jack shouted.
As the father and son were engaged in a heated discussion on the matter, Alice walked in, so the two people were tacitly silent.
After all, they didn’t like Alice knowing about that subject.
However, when he saw Alice, Jack unconsciously ran to his mom to ask for a hug.
He remembered the dialogue between Kennedy and him immediately, so he stopped.
Alice looked at Jack with a puzzled look on her face.
-What happened?” Alice asked.
No doubt her little boy wanted to embrace him, but he stopped suddenly, his behavior leaving Alice in confusion.
Jack blinked his light eyes, and explained in his immature voice, -Daddy told me you are pregnant, that’s why I can’t approach you often, this is all to protect the baby from danger.
Alice spoke nothing and turned her gaze to Kennedy.
She never thought they would talk about things like this in the room.
-It doesn’t matter, as long as you don’t bump into my belly, there’s no problem,” Alice said, squatting down and stroking Jack’s head with a smile on her mouth.
At once, Jack shook his head in pure refusal, firmness was found in her eyes.
-“It can’t be, Mom, it’s a treaty between Dad and me, we can’t go near Mom often,” Jack replied.
At his words, Kennedy looked at him with narrowed eyes, it was a sense of danger, and he did not remember when he said it. Let’s see, Jack was more scared than the one in his imagination.
So, Kennedy stood up, and grabbed Jack directly.
-Yeah, it’s a deal,” said Kennedy.
Jack thought, -Dad has admitted it to Alice, my God, I can’t believe it. Ah! Got it, he’s not going to keep the engagement absolutely.
He was about to say something, but was interrupted by Alice.
-Yanis has prepared the noodles, let’s eat them now, it’s very late and it won’t take him long to go to bed,” said Alice.
-Okay,” Kennedy replied.
Kennedy laughed lightly, pinched Jack’s faces, and then led him out of the bedroom.
What he wanted to say disappeared with Kennedy’s deeds, he could only look at him and said in a low tone, – Bad daddy.
a chuckle was found in Kennedy’s mouth, it was an expression of triumph.
Kennedy thought, -you want to cheat, but, I’m the more experienced.
Jack spoke nothing, crossing his hands over his chest.
-This time I yield to you, he who has patience sees his revenge, one day I will show you my strength,” thought Jack.
They all sat around the table to eat the noodles.
Today was Christmas Eve, they should meet with a good dinner, however, now they were eating the noodles by many coincidences.
Good thing, Yanis cooked very well, although it was only the plain noodles, which had whetted everyone’s appetite.
After dinner, Kennedy took Jack in his arms, and said, -it’s shower time.
-I haven’t finished dinner yet,” Jack thought.
He was very envious of the loving communications between Kennedy and his son, Yanis took Alice in his arm, said in a cuddling tone, -Alice, you two seem to be getting along very well. You could sleep in my room tonight, how do you think about that?
Then Yanis pretended he hadn’t seen the aggressive looks, and avoided them directly.
Alice didn’t notice anything about the changing phenomena, nodded her head and said, -okay.
Nathan Secada also pretended not to have any sense of the phenomenon changes, eating his ration of noodles silently.
***
Midnight.
Alice lay in bed, it was a long silence, what could only captivate was Yanis’s breath next to her.
She turned her head to the window, she had not found any sound in that environment.
It was already very late, actually, he should sleep, but… the pulse was strong, it seemed to be crashing to his veins.
Everything that had happened during the day was jumping in his mind quickly.
Yanis wanted to put him up in his bedroom, and they chatted a lot before bed, they thought they could talk secrets between girls until daylight. However, it didn’t take long, Yanis was already left in dreams.
-That’s very good, Alice thought.
Alice hoped that she could also glue her eyes so easily, but she couldn’t keep her emotions quiet now.
Alice tossed and turned in bed.
She realized that she was suddenly thirsty, and tried to drink some water.
Then, she got out of bed, carried her shoes, and tiptoed to the kitchen.
Leaving the room, Alice closed the door softly, and did not turn on the living room light, heading to the kitchen directly.
When she entered her destination, with the light out of the windows, Alice picked up a glass of water, and drank it immediately.
With the run of the water to her stomach, she was full, Alice returned the glass to its place after using it, and was about to leave.
At that moment, she saw a fleeting shadow in the darkness.
It didn’t leave her time to react, the shadow was coming towards her, and caught her in its arms.
The breath was so familiar, occupying the space around her, Alice froze, and knew who the owner of the shadow is.
-It’s Kennedy…
-Did she also find it very difficult to sleep?” thought Alice, originally, I thought she was the only one who was bothered by insomnia, however, she would have new companion.
-Well, why couldn’t she sleep?
-The reason is that he had a lot of things going on during the day? He’s not ready to have another child yet, so he’s too excited,” Alice thought.
And then, Alice raised her head and asked, -why…..?
Her lips were covered in darkness, when she wanted to say something.
