The Love that Hasn't show: Time isn't a problem

31

Bella

Today is the day.

"Ready?" Bri asked

"Yeah."

"I'll miss you." She said

"I know." I pulled her into a hug, "But I don't want Eli to lose any moment with the baby."

Wait, you thought it was the wedding day? No, today's the day I'm moving in with Eli and Mia, it's only the middle of January, I mean the wedding will be 3rd of March, Eddy still need time prepare for everything.

Eli thought it'll be better if we have a wedding before the kid come. I mean, I'm okay with anything as long as I don't need to deal with Wedding planning and Ma's rage, like Eddy.

Yeah, she's still not happy. I think I'm the second one out of six that actually piss her off.

Wait until Ma knows about my choice of name, she'll murder me for sure.

-

"Is it a boy?" Mia ask as she put her hands on my stomach, "Am I getting a brother?"

"We don't know yet, sweetie, it might be a sister." I chuckle.

"I think Mia spent too much time with you." Eli said as he walked out of the store, yes, we are taking Mia shopping, she kept growing out of her clothes.

"What?" I asked

"Look at her clothes, all shirts and jeans, no dress or skirts." He give me a look

"Daddy, I want a short haircut."

"No."

"Ma." She turn to me with a puppy eye, "Please."

I pointed at Eli.

So she used it on him, "I love you this much." She said, spreading out her hand.

"Fine." He groan, "Shouldn't let Eddy taught you that."

I shrugged, "Nothing wrong with that."

"Bella, she's a girl!"

"I'm also a girl, do you see me wearing dresses and do makeup? As long as she don't send people to hospital like I did, I'm fine."

"Bonnie's going to flip out." He sigh

"Aunt Helen said to hell with that." Mia said, "When she was talking to Uncle Ethan."

"I'll have a talk with her about language." I sigh, "My sister has no filter."

"Sometimes I wonder about your childhood." Eli said

"Hey, I used to push everyone who said something to me in the mud, and I send the people who touch me in a wrong way to the hospital." I said to him, "Anything else you want to know?"

"Nah, I think that's it." He said, "Just promise me one thing."

"What?"

"Don't taught Mia how to fight, I already send her to learn something call karate, I think that's enough for her."

"I'll see."

-

"Eli, why is Mia dressing like a boy, and with the haircut." Bonnie asked, not so thrilled.

"She likes to and it's not sending people to hospital, so I'm fine with it." He shrugged

"Mia, Mom brought you a pretty dress." She bend down to look at her, "Do you want to try it on?"

"No! Why did everyone tried to put me in a freaking dress." Mia said with a tone I know too well.

Eli and Bonnie look at me,

"I didn't taught her that." I raise my hand in defeat.

"Let's go see the dress, maybe you'll change your mind." Bonnie said.

"I am certain I will not." Mia said.

"She learn too much as a six years old." I sigh.

"I know." Eli chuckled

"Ma! Told mom to stop trying putting me into a dress." Mia shouts, "I don't like dresses, can't beat Alex up in dress."

I sigh as I drag her to the side. Make sure I'm out of those two's reach.

"Mia, what do we said about beating your cousin up?" I asked her

"Don't let Mom and Dad know."

"And?"

"Push him into the mud will be fine enough, leave the beating to kids in my class that are mean."

"Nice girl." I smile

"Cough cough." Eli said standing behind me, "Mia, go find your mom, your Ma and I needed to talk."

"To be fair, it's better than sending someone to the hospital." I shrugged.

"Ella, she's a girl."

"Yeah, so why did you let her learn karate?"

"To self defence if necessary."

"How are we supposed to know it'll work unless she used it in real life."

"Did you always trying to cause a fight?" He give me a look.

"Do you want to heard the story when Helen beat triple A up when they're still kids? It's three against one and she still won." I said,

"Ella, remember that fist Ian the solution to everything."

"But a fist can prevent things from happening."

"I'm not going to win this."

"Nope." I giggle, "I'm telling you, if she didn't send anyone to hospital, then I'm fine with it."

He sigh, "the other day when Liz called me, I thought she was joking about Mia pushed Alex into the mud."

"Oh no, that was real, I was there." I said.

He facepalm himself.
