Happy Reading😊

The clock was 6:27 a.m.

Before leaving for a place to meet with clients. Tay took the time to read the newspaper and drink a cup of coffee in the morning before starting his activities.

Tay waited for Off to tell himself first before leaving the hotel room. They do go on business trips together, but they sleep in different rooms. Therefore, yesterday Tay called New, he did not hesitate to act spoiled with his husband because he was alone. If he was with Off at that time, he doesn't know what Off would think of Tay if he saw Tay's attitude like that.

Still, having time, Tay decided to call his husband. His brain was only filled with New, New, and New. So he did not realize that his actions would only disturb New, because the time difference was quite far. Paris is six hours ahead of New York. So for example now in Paris at half-past six in the morning, in New York it is still half past midnight.

The first call was not answered by New, but Tay still tried to call and waited on the second call. Until the time the connection is connected on the 7th call.

"What are you doing? Why aren't you answering my phone?" said Tay suspiciously.

"I should be asking, why are you calling me so late?" New asked in a distinctive hoarse voice when people wake up.

Instantly Tay realized the time difference between his place and New York. "What time is it there?"
"Half-past twelve."

"All right, continue your sleep. Have a good night...."

"I slept soundly before finally, someone disturbed my sleep," said New, sounding annoyed, and immediately hung up the call. Who wouldn't be annoyed by getting a call in the middle of the night just to ask for the time?

"Ah, he must be very angry," muttered Tay, realizing his mistakes.

********

"Mopa.....," called Nanon, turning towards New who lay next to him.

"Yes?"
"Why doesn't Nano have a younger brother?" asked Nano innocently with his hand under his cheek.

New couldn't hide his surprise.

"Some of Nano's friends also have older siblings. But why doesn't Nano? Nano also wants to have siblings," he said with round eyes that added to his innocence.

"Buy one for Nano, Mopa. Nano promises to look after and protect his little brother."

"Erm..." New looked stuttering and couldn't say anything.

"Oh yeah, it's Sunday. How about we visit Grandpa's house?" New hoped that Nanon's attention would be delivered.

"Asik!" he exclaimed so happily.

New let out a sigh of relief. Then stare t his son who looks beaming.

Mopa would have given Nano an answer, but not now.

After getting ready and finished preparing all the items needed, New and Nanon headed to Paramej's house along with a guard who drove the car.

Before leaving, New had contacted Paramej first if he wanted to go visit there. Because it is quite a distance from Tay and Paramej's mansion, it took several hours to arrive at Paramej's residence. After a very long journey, they finally arrived.

New asked the guard who escorted him to come inside to rest while drinking tea and eat the snacks provided before returning to Tay's mansion.

"Ah, there's Kay too," muttered New cheerfully.

"Yeah, I wasn't here long, either," Kay said lightly.

"Hi, Uncle," said Nanon, waving his hand.

Kay chuckled at New's attitude that was like a real mother. "Hi, boy. You want to play with uncle?"

"Play?"

"Yeah, Uncle's gonna teach out lots of fun games, are you coming?"

Nanon nodded enthusiastically, then went with Kay to the back garden at Paramej's house.

"Have you come?" Paramej came out of his study.

"It's Sunday, Dad. You're still working," complained New.

Paramej chuckled. "Just checking some documents," he said lightly.

"Where's Nano?"

"Playing with Kay in the back garden."

Paramej just nodded his head.

"Newwie, Daddy has something to talk about," Paramej said with a serious expression.

New nodded and followed Paramej into his study. If Paramej has invited New to speak privately, it means that the things discussed are very important.

"How is your relationship with Tay? Has anything changed?" asked Paramej after sitting down on the sofa.

"Our relationship is quite good, Nanon is no longer afraid of Tay," he said lightly.

"So you love him already?"

New was silent for a moment. "New can't answer now, Dad."

Paramej took a deep breath and exhaled slowly.

"From the start Daddy never forced you to stick around. So if you really can't, push yourself anymore."

"What do you mean, Daddy?"

"You no longer need to worry about the company. Our company has risen and is growing very rapidly. Even stronger than before. So you can quickly divorce Tay."

Deg

New's heart was throbbing with pain.

"Daddy didn't mean anything, Daddy just wanted you to be happy with the man of your choice, New," said Paramej quietly.

"But still, it all depends on your decision. You know best about your own heart and feelings. Because this is your life, so you have the most right to make the best choices for your life."

New was silent and didn't say anything.

After that conversation, Paramej and New came out with normal faces as if nothing had happened. New also still managed to smile and laugh in front of Nanon, who was [playing basketball with Kay. Even though it is called a back garden, there are various fields for all kinds of games such as basketball, badminton, table tennis, and billboards.

Kay approached New and sat on the available chair. They both looked at Nanon who was now playing with Paramej.

"So, now you're busy as a housewife?" asked Kay.

"Yeah, well. But I enjoyed it," said New with his lips puffed up into a smile.

"I can see it from your face. Even though Nanon is not your real son, but you really love and take care of him very well."

"Because I want Nano to be happy..." New said quietly with a long, distant gaze.
