My baby

Chapter 9

Matheus Williams

He knew his anxiety would strike in that tumult of people, but he didn't imagine it would be so serious. Milly grabs me like I'm going to run away from any run away at any time, she's still shaking so badly. I quickly told my security guards that we had to leave. I didn't give a shit about what people were weighing in relation to my girl who is in my lap. Whispering things into her ears trying to calm her down and it feels like it's working from the fact that she's loosened her grip on my neck.

I got into the car with her still on my lap. I held her face and wiped her tears calmly, she looked at me with those little red eyes and my heart ached. I knew she was feeling annoyed, but if I put her to sleep now she would probably regress when she woke up and cry a lot, she gets really annoying when she regresses stressed.

- Baby, take a deep breath! - She did what I told her calmly. - It's gone, we're going home. - I hugged her little body and caressed her soft sobs. We got home, I didn't even wait for my security guards to open the car door, I walked quickly towards my house.

I told Olivia to prepare another bottle for my girl and headed to my room. I left her sitting on my bed, which I immediately regretted, as she didn't like the lack of my lap and extended her little arms to me.

- I'm just going to put a picture, baby. - I took the TV remote putting a boring picture of the fuck she liked. I picked her up again and lay down on the bed rocking her. - I'm here, daddy's baby. - I kissed her cheek, which was wet with her tears that were stopping.

- Improved? Little... answer!-Her little eyes stare at me confused, her hand went to my hair and she laughed.

-Daddy.- she spoke with difficulty.

Oh shit! She regressed.

- My baby, how old are you?- Milly held up three fingers and let out a good-listening laugh. Her innocence had increased enough, I'm sure she won't walk properly. Now I have a sly and needy baby until she sleeps again.

I don't care when she regresses, but it makes me uncomfortable to know that this only happens when her anxiety strikes or she was really sad.

-I found out what happened at the mall... is she better?-Max came into my room and handed Milly's bottle, which made her crawl on the bed behind her mama. Max, she is one of the people I trust the most! I don't care about his friendship with my little one, because he's gay and it makes me calmer knowing that he would never look mean at the girl. mouth and sucked the contents quickly. Milly looked at him confused, not understanding a word.

- She doesn't understand, dumbass.- I said it obvious and he laughed, ruffling her hair, which made her slap her hand lightly. Creeping towards me that being sat on his lap again and closed his little eyes.

She was so perfect, delicate and innocent. I kill and steal just so she's safe and well! It was hard to admit that I love her. Love is something so complex and difficult, it involves maturity and responsibility. Things totally out of the question what I work with! Milly taught me so much without even knowing it, because in her mind I adopted her to be just my baby. However, I needed responsibility in my life, someone to take care of and have all to myself.

It's so gratifying to come home after a tiring day at work and see that little angel playing, sleeping or even putting her to sleep in my lap.

As tired and stressed as I am, I take the time to pay attention to my girl! She's been too alone in this life, it's my duty to make her feel loved and wanted.
