Chapter 11: Meeting the Family
“What do you want for your birthday?”
I stopped studying and glance up at the man sitting beside me on the bed.
It had been almost two months since that incident, and I could already walk normally again.
“Hmmmm…… How about a one-week tour in Europe where we will sleep in one of those igloos watching the northern lights… just the two of us?” I smiled at him and resumed my studying.
My birthday was exactly a week after the fall exams. In Artem, there was a spring break, summer break, autumn break and winter break. After the fall exam, two weeks break and then coupled with Halloween, that was a total of three weeks break from school.
So we discussed to celebrate my birthday in my home country, and then we could spend the rest of the break exploring Europe.
That will be so romantic.
“Mmm… I’ve already asked my father to take over for me. I’m all yours for three weeks.” He kissed my cheek, and I giggled.
Can’t wait for my birthday.
“Don’t worry Leanna, will be there on your birthday,” Zoe said while texting.
“What will you do with the rest of the break? Why don’t you come with us and spend the vacation in my home? My parents will be happy to see you again.”
Zoe finally stopped texting and gave me a complicated look.
“W-well, you see… I have many orders of paintings lately… Grandpa Luke and I have been busy with the gallery and all.”
I knew that she was just avoiding Lawrence. Ever since my brothers’ birthday (which I knew she secretly attended), she had been… well… moving on I guess.
Which I felt somewhat guilty about.
“Grandpa Luke?”
“That’s the old man wanted me to call him.” Zoe shrugged her shoulders before she finished sipping her soda and grabbed her things.
“Where are you going?”
“Sorry guys. I promised Elliot we’ll watch a movie tonight.” Zoe bit her lips and avoided my gaze.
My mouth could only mutter an, “Oh.”
“See you tomorrow.” Then she darted off out of the restaurant.
I guess it was better for her to fall in love with someone new.
“Don’t worry, Elliot is a good guy.” Estela finished her frape and packed her things.
“I know.”
I also finished my tea and cleared my scattered notes on the table.
“How about you, Estela? Do you want to come with us to my home?”
“Sorry, Zhander and I have plans, but we’ll be there on the day of your birthday.”
She winked at me, and we got out of the library.
“Oh.”
I frowned.
Usually, these two girls would come at the slightest mention of vacation.
I guess everyone already has plans.
“Are you alright?” I squeezed Cain’s hand when the man hadn’t said even a word from the whole ride to his parents’ home.
In these past few days after Cain told me he wanted me to be officially introduce to his family – I had been anxious and nervous, but it felt like the man was more nervous than I was.
I had caught him constantly staring at me with fear and anxiousness in his eyes these past few days. And now that we were in his chopper, close to his parents’ home, he had been adamant on keep on staring at me that I couldn’t help but feel nervous as well.
“It’s nothing.” He said after a while, yet still didn’t teared his eyes on me.
“Young Master, we’re here.”
Even Russell’s voice had a nervous streak in it.
Am I not wanted in his family? Is it going to be alright?
“Let’s go.”
We got off and Cain grabbed my hand, halting our movement, causing me to look at him.
His expression was unreadable, and the fear in his eyes intensified.
“Leanna……”
“Yes?”
He squeezed my hand and hugged me tight.
“I love you.”
….
….
I hugged him back with the same intensity.
“I love you too.”
