Love yours

Chapter 11: Family Time

Andreas, Ava, and Gekyume walked hand in hand, enjoying the warm sunshine and gentle breeze. They strolled through the park, taking in the vibrant colors and sweet scents of blooming flowers. Gekyume, full of energy, skipped ahead, his laughter echoing through the air.

Ava smiled, watching Gekyume's carefree antics. "He's such a joy, Andreas. You're so lucky to have him in your life."

Andreas nodded, his eyes shining with pride. "I know, Ava. I'm grateful every day for this little guy."

As they walked, they came across a playground. Gekyume's eyes widened with excitement. "Can we play, Papa? Pleeease?"

Andreas chuckled. "Of course, kiddo. Let's have some fun!"

Ava sat on a bench, watching as Andreas and Gekyume played together. They swung on swings, climbed the jungle gym, and slid down the slide. Gekyume squealed with delight, and Andreas laughed along with him.

After a while, they took a break, sitting together on the bench. Gekyume snuggled up close to Andreas, his eyes sparkling with happiness.

"Papa, I'm so happy we're a family," Gekyume said, his voice filled with sincerity.

Andreas hugged him tight. "Me too, kiddo. Me too."

Ava smiled, feeling a sense of belonging. "We make a great team, don't we?"

Andreas nodded, his eyes meeting Ava's. "We sure do."

As the sun began to set, they decided to head home. Gekyume was tired but content, his face flushed from all the playtime.

As they walked, Ava took Andreas's hand, feeling a sense of connection. "Thank you for today, Andreas. It was perfect."

Andreas squeezed her hand. "Anytime, Ava. I love spending time with you and Gekyume."

Gekyume, now sleepy, leaned against Andreas's shoulder."I love you, Papa," Gekyume said, his voice barely above a whisper.

Andreas's heart swelled with emotion. "I love you too, kiddo. More than anything."

Ava smiled, feeling a sense of warmth. "I love you both too," she said, her voice filled with sincerity.

As they approached their home, Gekyume's eyes began to droop. Andreas scooped him up in his arms, cradling him like a baby.

"I'm so grateful for this little family of ours," Andreas said, his voice filled with emotion.

Ava nodded in agreement. "Me too, Andreas. We've been through so much, but we're stronger because of it."

Andreas looked at her, his eyes shining with love. "We make a great team, Ava. You, me, and Gekyume. Nothing can ever break that bond."

As they entered their home, Gekyume stirred in Andreas's arms. "Papa, can we have a movie night?" he asked, his voice sleepy.

Andreas smiled. "Of course, kiddo. Let's pick a movie and make some popcorn."

Ava smiled, feeling a sense of contentment. "I'll go make the popcorn while you guys pick a movie."

As they settled in for a cozy night together, Andreas looked at Ava and smiled. "This is what it means to be happy," he said, his voice filled with emotion.

Ava nodded in agreement. "We've found our little slice of heaven, haven't we?"

Andreas nodded, his eyes shining with love. "We sure have, Ava. We sure have."
As they watched the movie, Gekyume snuggled up close to Andreas, and Ava sat on the other side, holding hands with Andreas. The movie was a classic, and they all enjoyed it, laughing and commenting on the familiar scenes.

After the movie, Gekyume yawned and stretched. "Time for bed, Papa," he said, his voice sleepy.

Andreas nodded and stood up, lifting Gekyume into his arms. "Let's get you tucked in, kiddo," he said, carrying Gekyume to his bedroom.

Ava followed, and they both tucked Gekyume into bed, giving him a goodnight kiss and hug. Andreas whispered "Goodnight my heir" before switching the light off.

As they left Gekyume's room, Ava turned to Andreas and smiled. "That was a perfect evening," she said, her eyes shining with happiness.

Andreas nodded, putting his arm around her. "Definitely one to remember," he said, pulling her close.

They walked to their bedroom, enjoying the quiet of the night, and the warmth of each other's company.

As they got ready for bed, Ava turned to Andreas and said, "You know, I've been thinking..."

Andreas looked at her curiously. "What about?"

Ava hesitated for a moment before speaking. "I think we should get married," she said, her voice barely above a whisper.

Andreas's eyes widened in surprise, and then a huge smile spread across his face. "Really?" he asked, his voice filled with excitement.

Ava nodded, her eyes shining with happiness. "Yes, really," she said, her voice filled with conviction.

Andreas pulled her into his arms, holding her close. "I'd love to marry you, Ava," he said, his voice filled with emotion. "I love you."

"I love you too, Andreas," Ava replied, her voice filled with happiness.

As they hugged, Gekyume's voice came from the other room. "Papa, can I get a glass of water?"

Andreas chuckled and went to get Gekyume a glass of water, while Ava smiled and got into bed, feeling grateful for this little family of hers.
