The meeting with the clients was a success. Me and the rest of our team will celebrate in a nearby restaurant.
"Sir, congratulations!" Lily said happily
"Good job, Mr. Xu. As expected from the CEO of this company, you did great." Our vice president, Mr. Lim, said.
"Thanks, but I owe it to all of our staffs. All of you did a great job." I said happily
We are in the middle of our conversations when a waiter approach our table,
"Is Mr. Xu here?" He asked
"Yes, I am Mr. Xu, why?" I asked
"Sir, a guy handed an envelope to us and told us to give it to a Mr. Xu who eats in our resto. He suddenly disappear so we can't ask him anymore. The envelope was in our counter, follow me Sir,"
I excused myself over them and I followed the waiter. They handed me the envelope and I tear it to open.
Pictures.
I look at the pictures I have in hand. It's a park. Scenes unfolded in my eyes because it was so detailed.
Johnny sitting on the ground. The kids playing in the slides. Johnny picks up his phone. The kids were approached by a hooded man. I've had a bad feeling about this so I turn the pictures faster. I decided to kept the pictures and thanked the waiter for it.
I returned to my team and told them I had migraine and I needed to get home. I paid their bills and went off.
The drive to our house feels like I am racing with time. I wanna go home fast and talk to my husband.
Once I got home, I burst the door open, causing them to look at me surprised.
"Dada!!" The kids yell and starts to run on me and hugs my legs.
"Good evening, munchkins. Finish your dinner, okay? Me and Dada will talk," I said
I point Johnny and told him to come near. He didn't come so I point our room and told him to follow me.
I made my way upstairs hoping he'll come after me. I don't want our kids to see us fighting or yelling at each other.
"What's the matter?" Johnny asks
"Why did you took your eyes off the kids?" I asked. Too calm and I sensed him tensed.
"I... I..."
"You can't even take away your attention at your phone for the kids? Is that phone call so important? Tell me," I said not raising my voice, while showing him the pictures I got.
"It's about work, okay. It's my fault but I managed to find them,"
"I'll understand if it's our relatives who called, but work? It's your freaking day off and you entertain such call?"
"Dada, Papa, don't fight," Jimmy pops his head on the door,
"Kids, we already told you not to pry when adults were talking," I told them
"But we hate when Dada and Papa were fighting," Tony cries
"But we aren't fighting, we are just talking" Johnny said
"Dada is red. He is angry. Papa looks sad," Tony said
"We are just talking about the incident earlier. Yes, I am mad, but Papa finds you, so I am relieved. Dada just want to know the details, munchkins. That's all, because someone, a really bad guy is out there, following Papa and Dada, and I am just worried," I told the kids.
I saw Johnny look at me and starts to question me in his eyes where I replied to tell him later.
"How about, we finish our meal first, then we go to bed. You have school tomorrow," Johnny said and changed the topic
"Dada eat with us," the kids asked
"Sure, I'll change my clothes first then I'll go downstairs, okay?"
"Okay," the kids went down
"Where did you get this pictures?" Asked Johnny,
"It was given to me at the restaurant. Mind you, the guy who gave that knows I am in that resto. He followed us. Maybe they're the same hooligans who wants me dead," I said.
"I'm really sorry to hear that. It won't happen again. By the way, starting on Monday I'll change shift. We may ask your mom or mine when we leave," he said
"I suggests we'll have your mom for the weekdays and my mom for the weekends. Shanghai is way far for her to travel everyday," I said which he agrees.
We went down the kitchen and saw our kids happily eating their pastas. I made my way to the fridge to get them some fruits when I saw the drawings,
"Who draw these?" I asked reffering to the drawing of our family,
"Me, me!" Jimmy replied raising his hand
"So Tony draw this power rangers?" I asked
"Yes, I am Red Ranger." He said posing like the toy ranger he had,
"Good. Finish your food now, it's already late for munchkins like you. You have school tomorrow," Johnny said.
"But Papa, we want to play some more," Jimmy said
"No, no, no, Mr. Jeremy Huang. You must listen to what your Papa and Dada tells you," Johnny said
"Me, Papa. What's my name?" Tony said happily,
"You too, Mr. Anthony Huang. Don't be naughty." He said
"Yes, papa." Tony said.
Our dinner was filled with laughter and questions mostly by the two kids.
When it's bed time,
"Papa, sing me a song," Jimmy said
"Dada, read me a story, please?" Tony asked
We looked at each other and did what they want. The kids had seperate beds, but whenever they feel scared, they can always come to our room.
The kids felt asleep fast, and we head to our bed.
"I am sorry about talking to you that way earlier. I'm just.." I said but he intervenes,
"Shh... It's alright, babe. It was clearly my fault. I understand. I'll promise you it won't happen again. Saturday's coming, I'll clear my schedule for that so we can talk about their party. This time, I'll come," he said raising his hands to promise,
"I know, I know you won't let me down twice. I like it when you always make it up on me, you know. I love the extra efforts," I said cheekily
"You enjoyed it, huh?" He asked
"Somehow," I teased
"If I make it up to you tonight, don't be noisy," he said kissing my lips,
"To tell you honestly, my mouth won't say a thing if you will kiss me" I whispered and bit his ear playfully,
"Well, it's a deal. It's a long night, better prepare," he said unbuttoning his clothes,
"I am always prepared, babe. I am ecstatic at the thought, actually," I said which caused him to slam his mouth onto mine.
Our kisses went deeper and deeper and so was the heat of the moment.
The night ends with us drifting into our own paradise, only to wake up again in the arms of each other.
And of course, with the munchkins screaming for their Dada and Papa.
