Trapped In His Melanchony

Side Story 5

Levi woke up alone in the bed. He was so certain, he slept very well for more than eight hours. Indeniably, mas nakakapagod ang mag-alaga ng bata kesa magtrabaho.

He got up from bed at agad lumabas ng kwarto upang hanapin ang asawa niyang si Addi. Sa living area malapit sa kwarto nila ay ang dalawa niyang anak na mahimbing na natutulog sa crib ng magkatabi habang ang anak niyang si Elvi, dinig na dinig niya ang boses nito sa labas na panay tawa. Nang dumungaw siya sa bintana ay nakikipaglaro pala ito sa kapatid ni Warren na si Walmer. So where is Addison Zapatti Ackerman?

He walked as he bagan his search when he heard murmurs just a few meters from where he paused walking. His brows crossed as she recognized the voice. It's her wife and she's giggling, as if she's talking with someone with a fun conversation.

He halted his steps as he reached the kitchen.

"That's so absurd to think. Disgusting to be certain."

"Ang arte mo, Warren ah. Ganyan ba talaga kataas ang standard mo sa babae?"

"Not my fault."

Levi cleared his throat and the two both turned their head welcomed by his intense gaze.

"O-oh, hi. Good morning, hubby. Gising ka na pala?" Addison went close to her and kiss his cheek but his eyes still pinned to Warren. Natawa na lang si Warren sabay umiling.

It's just so cringe how finally the man thougth he was a big rival now living with them on the same roof. Mukhang magtatagal pa nga ang mga ito dito sa bahay nila dahil nga ilang araw pa lang mula ng pinanganak ang kambal.

For the fact that he will be the one to adjust to his possessiveness in his own property tickles his demon to laugh out loud internally. Sa wakas, nagsama na rin talaga ang dalawa. Isang chill at isang seloso.

"How long since you woke up?"

"An hour already. Pinaliguan namin ang dalawa"

"With who?"

Addison narrowed her eyes. "Wynona?"

Levi sighed in relief and looked at Warren na kakaubos lang ng iniinom nitong gatas. He washed the glass and put in a drawer under the counter.

"Excuse me a lady and a gentlemen." Warren smirked at them that made Levi scoffed in response.

They both waited until he completely left the kitchen and Addi, shrugged with her right brow quirked up.

"What's wrong with you?" mahinahong tanong ni Addi.

"What did he mean not his fault of having high standards? And what you two are talking?"

"Gracious Levi. Di ba pwedeng e push ko naman ang bestfriend kong magkaroon ng lovelife?"

"And how about my first question? Does he mean it was yout fault? Why? Because it was you he is setting the standard?"

"Can you calm down? Levi..mag-asawa na tayo and believe me, wala na sa utak ng tao na agawin ako sayo." she sighed. "Let's be grateful to them too. They are helping us" she beamed at him and caressed his cheek lovingly. "Pwede kang magselos sa iba, wag lang kay Warren please. If there is someone who can pacify my whole feelings for you, it's you and Warren. Alam na alam niya kung gaano kalaki ang pagmamahal ko sayo" *grins*

Levi hummed at her, blinking hazily to his lovely wife. Why the hell until now, he's still so overwhelmed that this woman loves him as much as he do? Why is it so magestic that it seems unbelievable?

"If that's so, I apologize for being this way. I hope you give me chance to adjust slowly, this....attitude of mine."

Addison leaned her head to his chest looking up on him.
