C H A P T E R E I G H T | Unseen Chemistry

MOM WAS HOLDING A RED BUNDLE in her hands when I entered my house. Casting a furtive look at dad, she offered me a crude smirk. "So...how was the party, laddie?" She further embarrassed me by wiggling her eyebrows. I mentally face palmed to myself and than struggled my arms out of my jacket, just to hang it onto the hook by the front door.

"It was okay." I don't even know what to think...

"Are you hungry?" Dad questioned, his motherly nature quite off putting. I shrugged. Dad wrapped his arm around her shoulder and with his other hand, softly patted Alayna's head full of baby hair.

"There's pasta in the fridge," she added. I nodded and moved towards the kitchen when mom cleared her throat. "Darling, there's a teensy bit condition before you get the pasta."

I narrowed my eyes. "What condition?" I said loudly, my eyes drifting from mom to dad. Mom beckoned me closer and as I approached her, she forced me to hold my baby sister for her. As soon as she came under my hold, I couldn't hold back a smile for her. Oh Alayna...

"Your father and I are going outside for some pleasantries alone." She didn't hesitate.

"A date?" I turned around to look at her fully, now realizing the expressions on her face and the kind of dress she had donned on. Why didn't I notice before? Mom's cheeks flushed red and she nervously laughed, leaning towards dad for some sort of guard. I bit back a laugh.

"Its not a date," she quickly corrected me.

"It is," I argued.

"Sweetiepie, we are just two people who're going out to have some fun. We don't have any intention of courting because we've already got what we wanted." Then she proceeded to look at dad with warmth and affection who pressed his lips to her forehead.

"I get it. You guys can go. Remember there is a time curfew!" I jokingly said to annoy them and shook my head when they absentmindedly nodded. Making my way to the kitchen with my sister in my arms, I moved towards the kitchen to heat up my pasta.
