Seizing Your Love

109. Armando's Secret

"Pa night, ma." said Armando to his parents. They looked surprised Armando suddenly came carrying a little boy and a girl. Armando sat on the sofa and hinted Avery sitting next to him. Avery sat down with the gaze of Frans and Mauren.

"Who's this, son?" ask Frans to Armando.

"This is Avery Cody." replied Armando.

"I'm Avery." The girl greeted Armando's parents and sat back down.

"Then this little girl?" ask Frans again.

"Melody is opa and Oma. This is Melody Kamajaya, my daughter." replied Armando calmly. Armando takes Melody down, but due to not knowing Frans and Mauren Melody comes up to Avery.

"Mommy" said Melody seeking refuge.

"Don't be afraid son, Daddy's here." Armando holds the dear Melody.

"What the fuck is Armando." Mauren was impatient. He still can't believe Armando has a child.

"Surely she is my daughter, I married her mother before I married Trisia. Even Trisia already knows and she's willing to be my second wife." explained Armando who made her parents feel like they were in a storm.

"So this is your wife?" frans pointed at Avery. Mauren also came to the same conclusion.

"Not pa. My wife is Melani Cody. This is Avery Cody's brother" Armando said, still calming Melody down due to the loud talk.

"Melani?" asked Mauren. She finds out that her son really loves Melani and cannot let go of her.

"Yes, Melani, you don't like her?" armando asked Mauren sharply.

"Armando, even though she doesn't like it, you lied to her. Now bring Melani here.' Mauren was angry with her son.

"So you want to accept Melani?" Armando wants to know Mauren's mind.

"Of course, if you're married, what would you say. You should have said that you married Melani, so you don't have to marry Trisia." Mauren doesn't believe her son is that crazy.

"That's because we didn't believe Mama would accept our marriage." Armando's outlook was softer after knowing Mauren's thoughts.

"Slow ma, Melani has died in an accident." Armando told me everything in his nature, from when he was looking for Melani to the loss of his wife. Avery was already teary-eyed to hear her sister talk about it. Frans and Mauren were stunned to hear what her son was going through. So that's what kept Armando away from them.

"Pity Oma's granddaughter, because Oma you lost your mama." Mauren hugs and kisses Melody.

"So this is my first grandchild, Leta's son my second grandchild" Frans said smilingly looking at Melody.

"So where's Melody all this time?" mauren asked Armando.

"It was Avery who took care of Melody in America. At his family's house." explains Armando. Mauren approached Avery and hugged the girl.

"You must have lost your sister. Thank you for taking care of my granddaughter. What can Auntie do for you?" mauren said as he shed tears.

"Tante accepted and loved Melody that was enough for me." Avery wanted to say that the one who lost the most was Armando. But maybe next time, if there's a chance.

"Of course, he's our granddaughter" Frans said, staring fondly at Melody.

"Melody lives here baby, plays the same opa and Oma." Frans kissed Melody's cheek.

"Sorry pa, ma Melody will come with me to the apartment" Armando said firmly. It was a punishment for Mauren, for once resisting Melani. After all Armando loved his daughter, he did not want Melody to live under Mauren's upbringing. Although Armando still brought Avery and Melody to his apartment.

"Sweet, you love your kids so much but you can be lied to." Frans mocked his wife. Mauren was upset she turned her face away from Frans. Seeing that Frans hugged his wife dear. Despite how Mauren was a good wife, never wanted to trouble her. Armando and Avery arrive at the apartment. For the first time Avery saw the apartment, where Melani lived. Avery once picked up Melani, but she never went inside. Armando placed Avery in the empty room next to his room. Because she and Melani used to sleep in one room. Avery insists Melody sleeps with him. Armando. He will spend a lot of time with his daughter. Because it was night and Melody was tired, Avery put Melody to bed in the room. Armando was busy in his room, he took a shower then checked the report that Arsen sent. After that he started working because he was not sleepy. But it was Armando's daily life in an apartment like that. Spend time working. Avery, after putting Melody to bed, took a bath. After that he cleaned his clothes, because sleepy Avery also laid himself next to Melody and fell asleep. The next morning Avery woke up and saw that Melody was awake. Melody must be hungry. Avery made him some milk and gave it to Melody. The baby holds its own bottle of milk and enjoys it. Avery took a shower, he was hungry too. Melody had already drained her milk when Avery was done. Avery bathed Melody. After that Avery saw in the kitchen what he could eat. Avery put Melody on the sofa wide and put a pillow so as not to fall. Melody was busy with her dolls. Avery saw in the kitchen was a lot of food ingredients that his sister liked. This widower has been affected by his wife's diet. Or maybe because Armando misses Melani. But Avery felt it was not a strange thing. He decided to make breakfast for the two of them. Armando out of the room was tidy with his suit. He immediately held Melody.

"Pretty Daddy's been drinking milk?" Armando kisses Melody's cheek. In her eyes her laughing little daughter.

"Break breakfast first." Avery called out while putting two breakfast plates on the dining table. Armando approached while holding Melody. They had breakfast with Armando holding Melody. He could not bear to see his daughter playing by herself.

"Thank you for making breakfast." Armando started the day sweetly. What she eats is often made by Melani, but this one tastes better. Melani is not good at cooking. Avery just smiled.

"I'm going to the office for a while to sign some papers. You guys come with me. We'll have lunch together and bring Melody to play" Armando told Avery. Being locked up in an apartment is not a good idea.

"I'll be ready then." Avery took care of their breakfast plates, then went into his room. He's preparing Melody gear to carry. Avery swapped his clothes for the more tidy ones as they went to Armando's office.
