LASTLY, MY FIRST

Part 21 | Can I Call You My...

JENNIE

I woke up around 7am. My son woke up too and gave me the sweetest smile and he kissed me. We brushed out teeth together. I washed him up and prepared his clothes. I already walked to the bathroom and took a bath as well as Elijah already knows how to wear his own clothes.

After fixing up, he wanted me to carry him going downstairs. When we opened the door, we saw Lisa also coming out of their room. I smiled at her and she did to me too. She even approached us.

"Jen, good morning. Good morning to you too, lil guy. Why you let Mommy carry you? Why don't you let me do it, Jen?" She asked.

"No, it's fine. He's a bit heavy, Lis." I said. But Elijah is already gesturing to let Lisa carry him and what else can I do?

We went downstairs and found Aunt and Uncle at the dining area. They have been waiting for us to have breakfast altogether.

They look so happy seeing Lisa carrying Eli. Yes, they know the whole story, and they believed me when Lisa didn't. Uncle even kept on insisting and even sent me a photo of Lisa when she was a baby. I couldn't believe at first. They really look like each other. As in like Eli's features had been photocopied from Lisa. Especially those beautiful doe eyes and lashes.

We sat and they were surprised to see Eli eating by himself properly without waste. Well, i taught my kid how to be independent already at an early age.

We talked about our vacation here. Actually Eli and I are just staying until tonight and our flight is scheduled tomorrow. I still have to work.

"Uncle, I will be looking for places today for a prospect office. Can I borrow one of your cars?" Lisa asked.

"Yes. Sure. By the way, Lisa. Bam got an emergency meeting at his office today. He's supposed to tour Jennie and Eli around today." He told Lisa. I know what he meant already.

"I would really be glad to tour them around, Uncle. But if that's just okay with Jennie." Lisa answered and we stared at each other

I smiled and said, "Of course."

Lisa chose to bring the big car since we have a child with us. I took the front seat beside her as she drives.

"By the way, where's Miyeon?" I asked.

"Oh, she had an urgent shoot here when a magazine discovered she's in Bangkok. She left so early this morning." She answered.

"Hmm. Okay." I said an stared at the surroundings.

"Eli, look at that white huge temple. You want to go there later, son?" He asked Eli. He called him what?

"Yes please!" Eli answered with excitement.

"How about you want to ride on a big ferris wheel at Asiatique?" She asked him again.

"Yes yes yes please!" My son giggled.

We arrived to one of her prospect office buildings. It's a black marbled establishment. Lisa told me she will buy it if she will like the interiors .

She opened the car door for me and she took Eli from the backseat and carried him.

What is this scene? What am i feeling right now? Control Jennie. Remember? She did not even believed you.
