Black Swan's

Reunion (Eighty Three)

            “Thanks.”

            After saying thank you, Eden immediately went inside the house and breathed a little relief as she had managed to escape Andrew's grip. Of course the man was still as smooth as he used to be, but he was a bitch behind his subtle attitude. He even continued to force to drive her home until she was forced to agree to the man's offer even half-heartedly.

            “Hai, did I go too long?” Eden greeted her husband and children who were playing in the living room. Looking at his two neat children, made Eden realize his mistake today. He's gone too long!

            “I think you're lost, Ed.” said Aciel flat. There was no emotion on Aciel's face, but Eden was afraid of Aciel.

            “Yes indeed, I forgot my way home.” replied Eden with a grin.

            “You're too naive to force go alone without Mike.”

            “I just want to walk around for a while Ace. I'm back now anyway, so I'm going to cook now. What do you want to eat? pasta? roast meat with mushroom sauce?”

            “Whatever you cook I'll eat.”

            “Aww.. so sweet my husband.” said Eden was anxious while pinching Aciel's cheek. He then moved to another package he brought and began to issue snacks for Ciara.

            “Honey, this is your snack.”

            “Biscuit chocolate!” Ciara immediately jumped up and down happily as Eden tossed a box of chocolate biscuits that Andrew recommended to her. While Aciel suddenly walked towards him while slashing his eyes suspiciously.

            “You brought all this by yourself?” point Aciel at the three shopping bags that Eden placed on the table. Aciel felt it was a little impossible for Eden because obviously the woman would have trouble with all the parcels, including Louise's enormous diapers.

            “Alright, I confess.” Eden knew that he could not possibly fool Aciel with all the things that had been proven in front of him.     Aciel's instincts are always sharper to pry anything related to him.

            “I finally got home by taxi after getting lost and feeling tired of carrying all that stuff by myself. Forgive me for taking too long to leave you.” whispered Eden gently and kissed Aciel's cheeks lightly. The man was silent after Eden explained everything to ease the suspicion that had been lodged in his brain.

            “Your phone has been ringing ever since. Phone from Summer.”

            While

turning her back to Aciel, Eden seemed to close her eyes for a while, then she turned around while putting a bright smile on her husband. “Maybe he just wants to say something about his wedding.” said Eden sounds as usual as possible. Though in the heart of Eden sure if actually Summer might want to ask something about his arrival here.

            “Kukira like that. Cook Ed, I'm hungry.” said Aciel finally and walked away leaving Eden who immediately breathed a sigh of relief behind him. It was as if she was about to be skinned by Aciel with the sharp look of her eyes. Anthony's problem certainly can not be forgotten Eden easily. And he was afraid that such an event would happen again to Andrew.

-00-

            “Ace, wakeup. It's morning.” Eden said to Aciel while opening their room curtains wide. Aciel who felt glare with the sunlight coming into his room only moved briefly to the left to grab a pillow and after that he went back to sleep with a pillow covering his entire face. Eden clucked upset at the behavior of her husband who was very lazy while on vacation, but if he was working, he was, so her husband will be really diligent until he forgets to go home and forget his son and wife.

            “Ace, hey. Let's wake. It's noon already. Why are you still lazing around?” eden asked riled while seizing the big pillow from Aciel's face. But Aciel still insisted on keeping the pillow on his face.

            “Hmm, don't bother me. I'm still sleepy. Now I'm on holiday. So never disturb my pleasure when I'm on holiday.” said Aciel childishly. Eden rolled her eyes lazily at her husband. It's always like this when you're on holiday.

            “Yes God, it's eight o'clock. Nine o'clock I'll go with Summer, so you have to keep Ciara and Louise at home.”

            “You're going?” aciel asked suddenly opened her eyes.

            “You gave me permission yesterday Ace, did you forget?” ask Eden to remind. Last night when Summer called her and begged her to take her to try on a dress at her subscription boutique, Aciel gave her permission on the condition she wouldn't be gone too long.

            “I remember, just didn't expect if you were going to go this early.”

            “Don't tell me you've changed your mind?” Eden yelled angrily at her husband while trying to snatch the large pillow that Aciel used to cover her entire face again. They seemed to roll over here and there with Eden constantly trying to snatch the pillow from Aciel, but Aciel himself also had a very strong energy. He seemed unwilling to budge with his wife and kept the pillow on his face because he just wanted to sleep again.

            “Ed, why are you?” aciel shouted loudly as Eden continued to harass him brutally.

            “I want you to get up and take a shower. After this I have to go. If you keep sleeping like this, Ciara and Louise no one is looking after.” Eden said anxiously while still tugging the pillow from her husband's face.

            “You'll go with Summer?”

            Suddenly Aciel let go of his hand grip and made Eden almost tumble back because before he kept pulling the big pillow firmly. But luckily Aciel was able to pull his wife forward before she fell down and fell on the cold floor. Now their positions look overlapping, where Eden was on top of Aciel's body with a pillow in the middle of their bodies.

            “You'll go with Summer?”

            “Yes, so you need to get up right now. I need your help to prepare Ciara milk, as long as I'm going to bathe Ciara and Louise.”

            “That means you'll meet Andrew.” said Aciel sounding incompatible with Eden's previous remarks. Eden scrunched her baffled forehead towards Aciel with a questionable face.

            “Andrew? that's not necessarily because Andrew is a busy man. Don't tell me you're jealous of Andrew? Oh, comeon. Now is not the time to be jealous of other men. Look, we're married and have two kids. Isn...”

            “You're noisy.” whispered Aciel flat on Eden after she removed her lip link from Eden's flirting thin lips. See, now the red lips of Eden's more shiny red because of the link of Aciel's lips before, and it doesn't seem like a good sign for Eden.

            “Ace, you suck.”

            “Hmm, well, I am indeed handsome. Honey, your lips feel very tempting.” said Aciel slowly in the ear of Eden. One of his hands seemed raised to gently rub Eden's thin lips.

            “Hmm, I better get out of here soon, before..you're getting crazy.” reply Eden flat on her husband and prepare to stand up from Aciel's body, the, but the burly hand actually held him by pressing Eden's back firmly so that his wife could not go anywhere.

            “Release! I wanted to bathe Ciara and Louise.” cried Eden fiercely at Aciel, but the man only smiled half while looking at Eden's two beautiful eyes intensely.

            “Hmm, they're still sleeping baby. So you don't yell too loud, or they'll both wake up after this.”

            “Let them wake up. It is already noon and it is time for them to wake up.”

            “Yes Lord Ed, why are you in such a hurry to go and leave me alone with them? You want to meet Andrew soon?”

            “Andrew? Why are you so scared of Andrew. He already has a lover. Why are you jealous of Andrew. I'm gonna meet Summer, not Andrew. So never think a no-no.”

            “Then what about them? I can't take care of two toddlers at once.” whine Aciel like a child. Eden rolled both his eyes lazily at Aciel. It must have been just his wits to keep Eden at home and not go anywhere with Summer. Because Aciel was so jealous of Andrew.

            “You can. I will prepare all their needs. I've been pumping my ASI for Louise, so you just take it out of the chiller and heat it up for a while before you give it to Louise. For Ciara, I have prepared milk and food there, so you just need to mix the milk with a little warm water according to the dose and then give the milk to Ciara. Isn't that so easy?”

            “That's hard Ed. It's harder than arguing alot to win the tender."

            “Ck, you're overreacting. Now get your hands off my back because I have to bathe Ciara and Louise before Summer comes to pick me up.”

            “No! You should be at home with me and the kids.” said Aciel childishly while tightening his grip on Eden's waist.

            “Ace, you're a bitch. Quickly remove your hand from my waist.” Eden sounded impatient as she rolled to the right side. Now it was Aciel who was on top of Eden's body while still trapping his wife's body so that he could not go anywhere.

            “I don't want.”

            The two of them seemed to roll each other over and over until the sheets that wrapped around their king-size beds looked very messy and chaotic, some pillows and bolsters also fall into each other here and there. Unknowingly, they have crossed the line. Eden accidentally nudged Ciara's small body

sleeping at the end of the bed. Somehow the story goes, their little daughter was already at the end of the bed and now she had fallen under the bed with a very loud and deafening cry.

            “Yes God, my son is down. Ace!”

            Aciel immediately released Eden's body from the twists of his body while quickly running under the bed to hold Ciara who was still crying there because she had just fallen from the bed on the bed of his father and mother. Although they use a thick carpet underneath, but still Ciara felt

in pain and surprise, he suddenly fell under the bed with the noise of his parents screaming.

            “Hwaaa, mommy. Hwaaaa..”.

            Eden took over Ciara from her father's arms while trying to calm Ciara who kept crying.

            “Ssttt, dear forgive mommy yes. Shhh, it's already. Ciara want a drink?”

            Aciel thrust a glass of water on Ciara, the little girl immediately drank water given by her father even though she was still in a state of crying and also a bit of a whim.

Oekk oekk

            “Yes God, Louise was crying too. He must have been surprised after hearing Ciara.” scream

            “Daddy.” whine Ciara spoiled on her father. Aciel immediately took over Ciara from Eden's sling, then he told Eden to calm Louise down.

            “You pick up Louise, I'll take Ciara down.”

            “Good. After he stops crying, I will bathe Ciara.”

            After that Aciel actually came out from inside her room with Ciara still crying as much as she could over her shoulder. The little girl was still shocked by what had just happened to her. Aciel stroked Ciara's long hair gently and tried his best to make her stop crying.

            “Ssttt, sorry daddy yes. Where does it hurt? Tell daddy.”

            “Hiks ta ta hiks hands hiks Ha hiks Ciara.” said the little girl stammered while showing her two hands that felt pain. Aciel held Ciara warmly while stroking Ciara's two sick hands. He really feels guilty now. As a result of her childish behavior, Ciara falls and becomes ill. Though earlier he only intended to tease Eden, but it seems he has been too excessive. Hhh, really very childish.
