Chapter 44

Family

I woke up because of a slight movement beside me. I have an idea what it is but for some reason. I was afraid to open my eyes. What if it was just another dream? What if It just fabricated warmth that feels so realistic, and once I open my eyes will vanish together with him.

I didn't know how long I took my time until I decided to face it. My heart was beating fast as nervousness and hope enveloped my body. I slowly opened my eyes and watched my Little One make himself comfortable, snuggling on my chest as he wrapped me in his arms and used mine as his pillow.

I couldn't help but let out a smile on my lips as all worries popped like bubbles. "Good morning, Love," I whispered and kissed his forehead.

Until now, I still couldn't believe that these things were happening. It's too good to be true. I couldn't still believe he was lying beside me, and I could hug him and kiss his forehead, that he's finally mine again and we were finally home to each other arms.

I still feel like floating in some dreamland, dreaming, afraid to wake up even though I am beyond sure this is no longer a dream. I watched him in his deep sleep as I ruffled his hair softly enough not to wake him up.

Watching him in everything he does was indeed a hobby of mine back then till now. Even watching him in his sleep is something I don't find boring instead comforting. I think that's how it goes when you love someone. Everything he does makes you feel delighted, and your heart jumps. Even just watching him do nothing makes you feel so so blessed and beyond thankful.

Him, in my view, brings me so much peace, contentment, and happiness. I want to thank God, He blessed me with him. I was lucky enough to have the world around him where it's always serene and tranquil, free and heavenly, could be more than and all good places and feelings in this world.

He was someone who could only calm the chaos in my mind and waves of emotions inside me by just staring at him like. He is more effective than jasmine teas and all ways that could ease unwanted thoughts and feelings on me and could just shepherd me to the world in front of me no other than him.

The fact we were lying on my bed in our dorm made it more comforting and everything to me. He was surprised and cried a lot when I brought him here. He couldn't believe I would still be here after everything.

Little did he know that "Everything" was precisely the reason I stayed and chose to stay here.

I could see movement in his eyes, telling me he was now awake even he didn't open it and just sweetly smiled as he snuggled more on my chest. I moved closer to him as I pulled him in closer through his waist with my free hand as I shifted sideways facing him and beam more,

"Good morning Love, How was your sleep?" I asked him softly as I kissed his forehead.

He slowly opened his eyes as he stared at me with a soft smile. His dimples immediately caught my attention. He really looks extra damn good and attractively cute every time that shows. Especially in a morning like this, he looks so fluffy and soft. I smiled more until I found myself poking it.

He looked at me adoringly then laughed softly,

"Uhm, sorry," I said, then chuckled as I moved my hands away from to his face.

"It's okay, I don't mind if it's you," he said while staring into my eyes. I could feel my cheeks painted hues of pink as it turned hot. I could tell he liked my reaction as he smiled more playfully at me.

I couldn't help but laugh when he suddenly crawled on top of me. I watched him do that with soft smiles on my lips as his warmth invaded and sent through my whole body. My baby is still clingy as always, and I hope we won't stop being clingy.
