CHAPTER FORTYI stared at the sun rising up. I was on the balcony, silently sipping my coffee while watching how the sun rises. How beautiful.
”Good morning, love.“ I heard Mikey whispered on my ear as he kissed my cheeks.
We both silently watch the sun while sipping our coffees. Suddenly Giovanni entered the balcony and joined us.
“You're early today, are you nervous for the game?” Mikey asked and stared at Giovanni.
“Kinda. We're facing the best players of the other grades. But I'm sure I and Sean can handle them.” he answered.
“Stop bragging, it comes to a bitter end, y'know?“ I stated and stood up before reaching for my phone. “Stand up, you two, let's take a picture, with the sun rising up behind us.” I exclaimed.
Mikey stood beside me and encircled his arms on my waist. Giovanni on the other hand just hissed and shook his head. I know too well that taking a picture together with his own parents is too cheesy.
“Come here Giovanni, don't make me mad.” I exclaimed and the poor boy scratch his head before slowly walking beside me.
As soon as we were on our positions, I press the camera and take few shots with my boys.
“This is too cheesy, if Rara knows about this, for sure she'll tease me again, tch!” Giovanni remarked as he march outside.
We followed him and I started cooking our breakfast. Mikey have been staying here for quite a while now. He wanted to buy a bigger house but I refused. I can't bear to leave this home of mine.
As soon as I finished cooking, we fastly ate and come with Giovanni to school. Everyone was staring at us, err, at Giovanni I think.
“That's Giovanni's parents? My gosh, nasa'n ang hustisya?”
“It comes from the genes, hahaha.”
“His father's hot as fuck.”
“I wonder why Giovanni's so cold? His mom looked like a lively one.”
Are they seriously gossiping about us? Is this their first time seeing a family entered a school together?
“So you're famous, son? How did you bewitched all of these girls here?” Mikey asked while grinning and staring at the sorroundings.
“Tch, it's still creeping me out.” Giovanni hissed and stared at the building in front.
“Crept out with what?” I asked.
“The way he calls me son. I just can't digest the idea that he's here, tch.”
I chuckled and ruffled my son's hair. “Don't be silly, that's how parents addressed their children.”
Giovanni was just about to answer when Sean came together with the rest of their team. They were all already wearing their jersey uniforms, looks like the tournament's starting soon.
“I'll go with these boys for now. Watch me play and win this games for the both of you, hm.” Giovanni bragged and walk with his teammates.
We both sat at our reservation seat. I felt how Mikey's hands reach for my hand and squeeze it.
He stared at me with such adoration on his eyes while still squeezing my hands. “Thanks for accepting me again. I won't lose this chance you've gave me, Y/N...” he spoke with full of sincerity.
