New's POV

"Sure lil man, where do you want to sleep?"

"I want to sleep in the other room" my kid said.

I rolled my eyes at the two deciding on their own again, as if I'm not the one that was asked.

"But we don't have pajamas baby" as I explained to Non. I bought extra clothes for us, since it has always been part of the checklist, but not pajamas as I never planned to sleep in other houses.

"Let me lend you both my shirt, New, let this one slip. It will also be easier for us when we leave for the venue tomorrow."

His mom rented a place, where we will be having our engagement party. At first, Off tried to talk her out about having it in their house, which I agreed to.

They have this beautiful garden, overlooking the city below. Their place is located east of the metro, it has a high elevation as it is found on the slopes of a mountain range.
But it is not convenient for their family and friends to travel that far, since it is at least 22km away. His mom told us that we will have it in the city instead.

"Dad are you going to sleep beside Papa Off?" the question of Non made me focus my eyes on the guy.

From Tito Off to Papa Off??? What would happen if we stopped this act? I didn't factor my son's feelings. Also my feelings, what if I fell for the guy as well, it's not hard to like the guy. Wait New, cross that one out, I should know where I stand.

I guess the guy noticed my uneasiness since he was the one who answered.

"Kiddo, daddy will sleep beside you, as I still have work to do." I know he is just saying that because he told me the other day that he'll finish all his engagements prior to the "engagement".

"Okay." my son just shrugged

Just right on time, someone called Off telling that the couturier and his team were at the lobby, he asked the personnel to accompany them to his unit.

I need to talk to Off about it, he has been changing the topic every time I tried to open up the wedding.

In the living room, the team showed us suits in different colours. They asked us to try and check the fitting. Each of us with one assistant handing the suits that we need to try. Are all rich people like this?

The fitting went smoothly, I chose a suit that I liked, same with Off who picked out a colour very similar to mine. For Non, there are some minor adjustments but the couturier mentioned they can adjust it and have it ready by tomorrow.

After the team left, I volunteered to prepare lunch for us while the two were playing PlayStation. Nanon was amazed that Off got the newest version, and of course this is his first time to use that gadget.

While I'm busy rummaging the refrigerator, I can hear and see them laughing and joking around. Off put on the Gran Turismo game and place Non in front of the steering wheel with pedals that can control the game.

I was busy stirring when I suddenly felt a hand on the left side of my waist. I almost jumped at the touch, and was about to see whose hand it was. When I feel Off's body at my back, his face near mine leaning, looking at the food that I was cooking.

"Smells good, what are you cooking babe?"

Oh my gosh! Yes... smells good. Like powder, with a light smell of ginger and... Is that rose? Smells so fresh that I inhaled the scent again...

Hhhhmmmm is it Prada, Burberry or Bvlgari? Still unsure which perfume he is using.

I've always known he smells good, but I've never been conscious of it before. Now my senses are on alert and can feel the heat coming from his palm. His left pectoral is leaning at my back and his breathing is fanning near my face.
