RUNAWAY | Ran Haitani

09

"You're sweating so bad." I said, eyeing Ran with a hint of amusement in my eyes. "Are you nervous?" I teased.

"No!" He denied, his purple eyes glaring at me.

I gave him the address of our house and now he's driving slowly. I thought I pressured him because I can feel how nervous he was. I should've taken my time on telling him but he needs to know. I don't want our child to not meet his father. I even feel guilty for not telling him.

"He will love you, Ran." I smiled, looking at our house. The car stopped and I can hear Ran's heavy breathing. I looked at him and placed my hand on top of his, he's gripping the steering wheel so hard.

He looked at me and we stared at each other for a long moment, no words uttered just our eyes communicating. He looks like he doesn't know what he will do so I intertwined our fingers together and lead him inside the house.

From the front door, we can hear small giggles. I can feel Ran getting emotional just by hearing his son's giggles.

"He doesn't wants us to call him Aizen." I smiled, trying to make him relax. "He prefers to be called Rion more because your name starts with letter R." His lips parted at that, eyes gleaming. "Let's go inside?" I asked, grabbing the door handle of the double doors.

He breath heavily before nodding, he even fixed his clothes and hair. I hope we don't smell something. I opened the door and I can hear small footsteps coming towards us. My smile remains as we both stepped inside the house. I lead him towards the living room but before we can small arms hugged my knees.

"Mommy! You're b-back!" He lifted his head, lips pouting. His familiar purple eyes glancing at the man behind me. He blinked, removing his arms around my legs.

"Rion, he's your-"

"Daddy?" his innocent eyes stared at the man behind me. I nodded. I bit my lower lip when his eyes started to water. "Why...Daddy?" Ran panicked when he started crying. We both kneeled in front of him. Ran hugging our son, muttering sweet words on his ears.

"I'm sorry. I'm sorry, baby." Ran kept apologizing, his hold tightening.

I've been wanting to see this ever since I gave birth. I want to give our son a happy family. I don't want him to have the same childhood like mine. I want him to feel our love, even in the toughest times. I've decided since then that I am willing to die for him. I will do anything for him. Life is made for good family and great adventures.

And today's little moments become tomorrow's precious memories.

I don't want it to end.

"Woah! Ran?!" Rindou jumped out of his seat on the sofa when he saw us entering their house. Sanzu came out from the kitchen when he heard Ran's name.

"Who's that kid?" Sanzu asked, holding a pan. He's also wearing an apron which made him look like a material husband. I looked back at Rindou who's already flooding Ran questions.

"Our long lost brother?!" Rindou exclaimed. I sighed sitting on the couch across them.

"He's our son, dummy! Isn't he cute? He looks like me!" My eyes twitch at what he said. Well, I can't argue with that because Rion only got my hair color and skin color. That's totally unfair. He's so handsome, he resembles his father so much that I sometimes thought that Ran looked like Rion when he was a kid.
