"Levi, I will drive. You can go," Zayn said to Levi while getting inside his car with Jax in his arms. When Laria was about to get in the passenger seat, Zayn carefully placed Jax there instead. Laria looked at him in confusion and was about to lift Jax from the seat, but before she could, Jax began to fake cry. Zayn panicked and tried to console him.

"Laria, sit in the back seat. I think he doesn't like anyone sitting in his seat." Laria stomped her feet and glared at Jax. Jax stuck his tongue out. Laria slammed the door. Zayn chuckled and drove off.

On the way,

On the call...

"Hello, Raden," Zayn said, putting the call on Bluetooth.

"Yes, bro, tell me," Raden said from the other side of the call.

"I'm on my way," Zayn said. Raden hummed in response and replied, "Me too."

"DADAAA!" Jax suddenly shouted. Raden and Zayn chuckled, and then Raden said,

"I'm on my way, baby. Be a good boy, hmm?" Zayn chuckled and looked at Jax, who was smiling.

"I WILL, DADA!" Jax shouted again.

On the other side, Laria was covering her ears due to Jax's small shout. She suddenly said, "Jax, be quiet. Your voice is piercing into my ears like a needle," almost scolding him.
Jax pouted and looked at Zayn, who was gripping the steering wheel in anger. Then he looked at Jax, who was looking at him with cute, sad eyes.

"Laria, be quiet. He is just a kid. He is talking to his dad and has every right to shout and scream in my car. If you can't tolerate it, then just get out," Zayn said angrily.

"Why are you talking like this, Zayn? I was just..." Laria began, but Raden interrupted her with his stern voice.

"Why is that bitch in your car, Zayn?" Jax giggled upon hearing his father's words. Hearing Jax's giggle, Zayn also chuckled. Seeing this, Laria's anger took over her.

"Bro, the call is connected to the car. She heard what you just said," Zayn said, chuckling. Raden scoffed and replied,

"I don't care. Anyway, come fast."

"Yes, bro," Zayn said and hung up the call. After hanging up, Zayn looked at Laria through the rearview mirror. She looked very angry. Zayn chuckled again and drove faster.

At Collins Villa,

Zayn's POV

Now I was at my grandparents' house. As soon as Jax and I entered, Grandpa came towards me and took Jax from me. I smiled and walked towards Grandma, who was looking at me with a smile.

"How is my little big boy doing?" Grandma asked while patting my head. I smiled and said, "Doing well, Grandma." She nodded and looked me up and down.

"Hmm... I think my grandson has become thin..." As soon as Grandma said this, my mom came out of nowhere and said,

"It is because he is skipping his meals every day, Mom," she said, folding her arms across her chest. Hearing this, Grandma looked at me and asked while glaring,

"Is it true?" I chuckled, walked towards Grandma, stood behind her, and held her shoulders, saying, "No, Grandma. I'm eating my meals properly. Mom is lying."

Mom scoffed at me. Grandma looked at her and said, "Don't worry, my daughter. All your complaints will be resolved today. Today, I'm going to make his stomach burst."

I looked at Grandma in disbelief and then at Mom. Mom smirked at me.
