Finally finished with all of the hassles of handling adoption papers, Chaira lowered her head to look at the two kids who were smiling widely from ear to ear after all of the papers were approved and their surnames was successfully changed to her new surname.
"Call me mom," Chaira smilingly said while holding the approved adoption papers.
Sean who was successfully adopted still had red cheeks, eyes staring in a daze, as if he still can't believe that his sister and him were successfully adopted. It felt like a dream, but Chaira words made him snapped from his daze state as he hesitatingly asked, "Do we really need to call you mom?"
"Yeah…? I adopted you after all," Chaira was also made confused, tilting her head to look at Sean who still look hesitant to call her mom, "But I'm 7, Yena is 5."
"And I'm 23, just a big gap, enough for you to call me mom" Chaira immediately said then paused,
"Or you want to null the adoption papers at this time?" Chaira continued to say with a slight smile.
"Mommy!" Yena immediately said after hearing what Chaira said.
She did not have any reluctance on calling Chaira a mom, after all, Chaira adopted them, she got every right to be called a mom by them. She tugged at her brother new clothes after seeing that her big brother was still reluctant to call Chaira a mom.
Yena frowned, as if saying why is her big brother still hesitating for? It's not that hard to call Chaira a mom.
Sean pursed his lips, quietly thinking that Chaira is more suitable to be called a big sister than a mom, it felt like they were ruining Chaira future by being her adopted kids. It's better if they were adopted siblings. But Yena was looking at him with teary eyes. Sean had no choice but to quietly call Chaira what she wanted him to call, "...Mother."
"No. Mother is quite distant, call me Mama," Chaira continued to tease Sean with a smile, but Sean only continued to purse his lips. Chaira did not pursue it anymore, she felt Sean don't really like to call her mom, but that's okay, there is a lot of chance that he will finally call her mom when time goes on.
"Let's go have lunch," Chaira stated and put the approved adoption papers on her bag before she held Yena and Sean little hands.
They went outside and about to enter the car she newly bought just yesterday when they were shopping when she made an eye contact with the woman she never wanted to meet after leaving the house.
"You dead girl! Where have you been all this time?!" Chaira mother strides towards her direction angrily as Chaira stuffed the kids to her car hurriedly, it would be bad if the kids saw her mother at this time. But even if her mother did not see the kids face, she already saw that Chaira stuffed some kids inside the car she did not recognize.
Chaira mother stopped just a meter distance from her as she looked at the place where Chaira stuffed humans inside, "You… Did you get birth such a big kid secretly?"
Chaira face instantly went black, she glared at her mother coldly then rolled her eyes, "And what if I did?"
"So that is why you suddenly gone crazy!"
"Why?! How can you be engaged to Michael at this point when you have kids so big!" Chaira mother hysterically asked while pacing back and forth, "Your future is so ruined! Why did you ruin your future?!"
Chaira chuckled, her dark eyes flickering, "Ruin? You are the only one ruining your daughter future and also, it seemed you forgot that I already broke my familial relationship with you… Linda"
Chaira mother who was being called by her name directly by her own biological daughter twitch the corner of her lips as she felt her blood pressure going up once again.
She was about to curse again when Chaira still did not give her any chance to curse when Chaira opened her car door and entered, starting the engine before Linda could even stop Chaira from leaving.
"Dead girl! Just wait after I find where you live!" Linda shouted but Chaira who was already too far away from where she is can't hear her anymore.
Chaira hummed as she drove off to the restaurant she has dinner with Sean and Yena for the first time. She hummed too happily but she saw the worried gazes of the two through the car rear view mirror.
Chaira lips twitched and realizing that the two may have heard what she and her mother was talking about, she patiently explained, "That's the mother that wants to marry off to someone for connection, though I doubt you understand what that means for now though"
"I understand!" Yena pouted seeing that they were being underestimated.
Chaira raises her brows and pouts in turn, "Is that so?"
"Yeah!" Yena vigorously nodded her head.
The two of them played quite a while, one teasing and one who was willingly teased, despite the two of them playing, Sean who was beside Yena and holding his little sister hand continued to lower his head, thinking of something gloomily.
The three finally arrived at their destination after an hour drive. Chaira surrendered her keys to the person in charge for parking spot and went outside along with Yena that trotted inside familiarly and Sean who continued to act reserved.
A male waiter immediately greeted them after they entered the restaurant, "VIP?"
Chaira gave her golden VIP membership card and instructed, "Please place them in the same room we are in last Tuesday, I will go to the public restroom first to retrieve something."
"Yes Ma'am," The waiter received the golden membership card with both hands while bowing as he solemnly replied.
Chaira crouched down and looked straight at Yena and Sean light brown eyes, "Follow this big brother first obediently okay? I will retrieve something from the public restroom first then follow you."
Sean nodded his head while Yena smiled, "Okay mommy!"
Chaira smiled brightly hearing Yena unreservedly calling her mom, her dark eyes turned as she can't help but to look at Sean who in turn shifted uncomfortably. Chaira sighed and stood up, instructing the waiter for the last time before she went to the opposite hallway where the public restroom is located.
She was about to enter the lady bathroom when she felt something grabbing her with gentle but firm force.
Chaira frowned, looking at the man trapping her to the wall.
"Who are you?" she coldly asked, her eyes staring straight into the stranger own red eyes while her hand is secretly making gestures, hoping to know where the weak spot for this guy is, that did not even flinch when she pressed his acupuncture hard.
Is this guy dead? How come he was so motionless?
Even if she still can't move her hand to her relatives after three lifetimes already, she is certainly not a weakling in the face of a stranger. So just after a failure, her mind quickly turned for a comeback.
The guy only blinked, bringing his face closer to her neck. Chaira shifted uncomfortably, resisting the stranger hooligan act, but can't do much when the difference in strength was perfectly laid out in front of her.
"Mine. You," his crooked words said in a deep voice, carrying a hint of evilness echoed through the silent hall. As he gazes at the petite woman he trapped in his arms, he saw her beautiful dark whirlpool eyes flashing in extreme brilliance.
Chaira dark eyes flickered, instead of being scared, she stared right into his strange bloody red eyes, exuding extreme danger and familiar burning gaze, as she chuckled lowly while raising her brows in provocation, "Can you make me though?"
The hoodie cap tightly covering the man face except for his red eyes, fell down in shock as his red eyes widened, staring deeply at the woman trapped in his arms provoking him naturally after being on high guard.
His handsome hidden face was instantly laid bare in front of Chaira as Chaira eyes flashed, gazing over at the otherworldly appearance of the man in front of her, "Who are you?"
