Dealing with Mr. Scared of What? (Quadro Series #1)

Chapter 73

"Quinn!"

Natawa naman siya ng makita si Kyx na nag-mamadaling nag-lalakad papunta sakaniya, he was discharged five days ago. Like they always do, kakain sila sa restaurant ni Kyx. Kasama niya ang mag-kambal at si Tate. Agad naman umalis ang mag- kambal mula sa hawak niya at tumakbo papunta kay Kyx.

Tate wrap her hand around her before walking, si Dave naman ay nakikipag -usap na kina Calcifer. Nauna kasi ito keysa sakanila dahil kailangan pa niya ayusan ang mag-kambal. Nagpa-iwan naman si Tate para tulungan siya. When Dave saw them he immediately walk toward them, specifically Tate.

"Tagal niyo." Rinig niyang reklamo ni Dave. Natawa na lang siya ng batukan ito ni Tate. Napunta naman ang atensyon niya kina Kyx ng tawagin siya ni Eli, agad siyang lumapit sa dito bago ito kinuha sa bisig ni Kyx. Buhat-buhat kasi ni Kyx ang dalawa. "What is it?"

"Aunty Mommy. Can Uncle Daddy sleep over tonight?" Eli was pouting, being adorable. Natawa na lang siya. Ito kasi ang ginagawa ng mag-kambal na ito tuwing may gusto silang makuha. Napatingin siya kay Kyx, he was already looking at her. "Well, ask Uncle Daddy that. Okay?"

"Ask your Aunty Mommy." Agad naman na ani ni Kyx. Both of them stared at each other's eyes.

Napaiwas siya ng tingin dito. "Do you want to sleep over?"

Kyx shrugged. "Is that okay with you?"

She stared back at him. "Are you comfortable sleeping over?"

"How about you are you comfortable having me sleep over?" Kyx retorted, hinawakan nito ang kamay niya.

"Okay," Ani ni Eli parang nairita na sa sagutan nila ni Kyx. "Uncle Daddy will sleep over tonight. Okay?" Ani ni Eli sabay hawak ng mukha niya at bumaling kay Kyx. "Okay?" She then smile before letting go of her face. "Aunty Mommy! Put me down!" Eli started wriggling, agad niya itong binaba ganon din ang ginawa ni Kyx.

Agad naman tumakbo ang dalawa papunta sa veranda na kinarorunan nina Tate. Hinarap niya si Kyx, para sana yayain ito pero agad siyang nabahala ng makita ang ang paraan ng patitig ni Kyx sakaniya.

"Is everything alright?" She ask, Kyx just gave her a small smile before holding her hands and leading her toward the veranda. She's still a little worried but decided to drop it. Mamaya niya na lang ito kakausapin. Nang makarating sila sa veranda, agad niyang napansin na wala si Bishop doon.

Nangunot ang noo niya, this is the first time Bishop is not here, hindi sila magka-sundo oo pero lagi itong dumadating. Hindi nga lang nag-stay sa isang lugar kasama nila, pero agad iyon nawala sa isip niya ng marinig niyang malakas na tawa ng mag-kambal.

She smiled, pero agad naman napunta ang atensyon niya kay Kyx ng bigla nitong hinawakan ang bewang niya habang hinahatak ang upuan sa harapan nila. "Sit here." Ani nito, she was a little shock but when everything register to her.

She immediately sit down before looking at Kyx dragging the chair beside her and sitting there. Marming nag-bago kay Kyx, iyon ang masasabi. Kyx has been acting way out of his comfort zone, it's flattering same time worrying her. She's happy, she is.

But sometimes she could see Kyx getting a little uncomfortable by his own actions. Don't get me wrong, gusto niya ang pagiging affectionate ni Kyx kaso nag-alala din siya dito. Kyx must be pushing himself to his limit. She's happy that he's trying but she wanted to take it slow with him.
