Chapter 7 ✵

Leslie ✵

"Follow me!" Riley yelled running off.

I started to walk faster behind her as she decided to go faster and faster.

"Riley where's your dad?" I questioned her as I followed behind her.

She didn't say anything as she kept on running.

I couldn't help but notice how beautiful the house is. This house is absolutely perfect.

Riley finally came to a stop in front of a huge door.

"You may go in." She said making a gesture for me to go in.

I smiled at her sweetly. "Why thank you Riley." I replied back.

She's a spitting image of Wardell and she's a stunning little girl.

Once I entered the room I gasped in surprise at how beautiful the dining area looks. Everything looks so neat and fancy.

"Hello Leslie." Wardell called from the other side of the room.

I shook because I haven't noticed him in the room at all because of how beautiful the room looks.

"Hey Wardell." I replied back walking over to him.

He heaved me into a gentle hug. I sighed as I smelled his cologne that's currently lingering in the air.

"You smell good too." He said snuggling his face more into my neck.

I chuckled a little bit as I released from the hug.

"You have such a beautiful home." I said with a smile.

"Thank you so much." He replied back going over to one of the chairs and sliding it out so I could sit down.

I gladly took the seat as he sat in front of me.

We already have trays of food sitting in front of us but they're covered. From the smell I can tell that the food is gonna be delicious.

"I'm so glad you agreed to come here tonight. I know you're a very busy woman." He said scratching his neck a little bit , I notice he does that when he's nervous.

"I'm never too busy for you Wardell and besides you're the one dealing with the NBA finals right now." I told him making him chuckle.

"You're right." He said.

"How do you feel about making it to the finals?" I asked him awaiting his response.

"I feel amazing and we've come so far. It's incredible." He told me with a spark in his eyes.

"That's great. I'm pretty proud of you guys." I told him.

He smiled big showing his adorable gap.

"Thank you. That means so much to me." He said honestly.

I nodded my head.

"Shall we eat now?" He asked.

"Yes, I'm starving!" I told him.

He then took the cover to the foods off and I licked my lips in satisfaction.

"How did you know this was my favorite?" I questioned him with wide eyes.

Wild Fijian albacore sashimi with pea tendril salad yum 😋

"Well a little birdie told me..." He replied back with a smirk on his face.

"Let me guess, Amber?" I spoke already knowing she told him.

He nodded his head.

"Easy guess." He replied back making me laugh.

After that we enjoyed our meal and got to know each other better.

"Daddy...." Riley said coming into the room rubbing her eyes.

We both turned our attention towards her.

She looks so adorable in her little pajamas.

"What is it sweetie?" He asked getting up from the table and walking over to her.

"I can't sleep..I just had a nightmare about a big monster coming to get me." She explained tiredly.

"Monsters aren't going to get you Riley. Just sleep under your covers." He instructed picking her up.

"No! They're gonna get me." She cried out making Wardell groan.

I got up and took her from his hands.

"Riley where's your room?" I asked her.

She pointed the way as I began to follow her pointing.

Wardell trailed behind me slowly.

Once we reached her room I tucked her into her bed.

"Riley can I sing a song for you?" I asked her.

She nodded her head.

I then began to sing the song my mother use to sing to me when I was little.

She listened to me closely before her eyes started to close slowly.

When her eyes finally shut I stopped singing and got up from the bed.

"How did you do that?" Wardell asked from behind me making me jump at how close he is right now.

"My mom use to sing me to sleep all the time when I had nightmares too. Every time she did it I fell into a peaceful sleep." I explained to him.

He nodded and smiled.

"Thank you. After Ayesha left us a little while ago she has been having these nightmares and I haven't had a clue how to deal with her having them." He told me.

"She'll grow out of them." I told him.

"Do you want to stay over?" Wardell blurted before blushing a little bit.

"I would love to." I said blushing too.
