Courageous(Can i love again?)

Chapter 28

Keira's POV

"I didn't get married because I couldn't afford to have a child, so I also don't have a child." She said, I suddenly feel bad for her. I know it hurts for a woman to know that she can't conceive a child of her own. She looked at me then continued.

"So I paid more attention to this family, especially when King was born. I treated him like my child too so I really love that boy even though sometimes he was really very reprimanding" She said still laughing a bit so I accompanied her to lighten up the mood.

"Hmm, where is his mother?" I ask.

"She died giving birth to him" She replied. I suddenly felt sad for King. He was all alone now because Uncle Victor passed away, and now I found out that his mom passed away a long time ago either, good thing Manang Sabel is still here for him.

We talked a lot more and she was so happy to be with and to talk with, I feel like I'm talking to my mom right now. Maybe it's not really a bad thing to stay here because Manang Sabel is here and it's not just that annoying man with me.

We went to the garden and there we continued to talk and we laughed so much. I didn't even get to work today so I could fix my things here.

It's already four in the afternoon, I wonder if that man is going home.

King's POV

I arrived at my house by 4:20 pm, my office is not that far from here that's why I got home earlier.

When I entered it was so quiet that I immediately wondered, did she change her mind and just leave? I spotted one of my maids here.

"Ally" I called her so she immediately approached me.

"Yes sir?" She replied.

"Where's Manang Sabel?" I ask immediately while looking around the house.

"She's in the garden sir" She answered and I nodded then she left and went back to what she was doing. I was about to go up when I heard someone laughing so I followed where it was.

I was walking towards the garden because that's where the noise comes from. And when I saw who it was a smile immediately curved on my face. She was laughing so hard because of what Manang Sabel was saying to her, they're both laughing and she's so genuine, she's happy.

And then my eyes spotted her outfit. She was just wearing shorts and a crop top matching with her messy bun hairdo, it's so perfect on her, she's making me horny at this moment without doing anything. I can clearly see her flawless legs, I want to put my lips there. I bite my lip just by looking at her, then Manang Sabel interrupted me when she noticed me, I mentally groan because of it.

"Sir, you're already here" She said smiling at me. I smiled too and she also faced me.

"Yeah, I just arrived" I replied but I was looking at Keira. I approached her and kissed her, she allowed me she didn't push me or maybe because Manang Sabel is looking at us.

"Hi, my dear wife. What did you do all day ha?" I asked with a husky voice, she matched my flirtyness and caressed my neck then she spoke.

"I just arrange my things, and here Manang Sabel accompanied me and we're just talking all afternoon" She replied with her flirty smile while biting her lip. My body down there is like a rock right now because of her. I want her so badly. I was about to kiss her again when she suddenly left in front of me.

"Let's go Manang Sabel, we're going to cook for tonight right?" She said to Manang Sabel. Manang smiled at her and nodded at me before she walked in. Keira suddenly stopped and faced me then spoke.

"You'll pay for that Mister. I just allowed you to touch me and kiss me because Manang Sabel was there" She said with a playful smile and she looked down then looked at me again and spoke.

"Such a horny, you think I didn't notice that you've been checking me out. I can see that you have a problem down there. I'm sorry to say but you need to take care of that yourself" She said while laughing at me. She really does find any way to annoy me. She left after she said that, I know it's her revenge for what I did to her this morning.

I groaned and entered then climbed up and went straight to my room to take a very cold shower and to have a release too. After that, I also got ready and dressed for tonight's dinner with her parents.

I went downstairs and went straight to the kitchen. I smiled while looking at her cooking something, and it smells so good. Then I frown when I see she hasn't dressed yet.

"You're not ready yet?" I immediately said that they were surprised because they did not hear that I came.

"It's just my parents coming over, in fact I'm still beautiful just by wearing this cute apron" She said like a child. I should smile because she's cute, and she's right, she was beautiful even with that silly apron, but I maintain my frown face and Manang noticed that.

"All right, go now and get dressed, let me take that apron" Manang said and she took off her apron. She pouted like a child.

"But we're not done yet" She said still pouting, I badly want to kiss that pouted lips of her.

"I can do that, go ahead and maybe your parents are already on their way" Manang said as if she was talking to her child, they're close already? Then she nod and smiled at her.

"Okay, I'm gonna go get dressed" She said and walked out of the kitchen, she stopped in front of me and said "Tsk!" Then she stared at me and went upstairs. I just shook my head and couldn't help but smile. I sat on the counter chair then Manang spoke.

"Your wife is so kind King. You're so lucky to have that kind of woman in your life. Treasure her, there are only a few women like her in the world" She said with a smile. I smiled too, but deep inside I was sad because she wasn't mine. But I'm gonna make sure she will be.

"Yeah, Manang you're right. And I will" I said. She cupped my face with teary eyes.

"I'm so happy that you will be going to have your own family, son. I won't be afraid of leaving you alone when I'm gone, because Keira is already there for you." She said and now she's crying. She's like a mother to me because I haven't met my mommy and never will, she died giving birth to me. All I have are pictures of her.

"Manang don't say that. Nothing bad will happen to you okay, so stop saying that." I said while wiping her tears. I stood up and turned towards her then I hugged her tightly.

"Don't worry too much okay" I said while hugging her and I kissed her head. I am so lucky to have her, she's been with our family before I was born, she's loyal to us and treats me like her own son.

"Thank you" I said to her.
