TWO WEEKS LATER.
She said no. She just couldn’t. He explained to her how Ryan was upset for so long that he didn’t come out of his room. She felt horrible.
“Milo stop messing with Franky!” Runa yelled with a laugh as she saw her little puppy whine for help at Milo’s love attacks, “You know she hates it.”
“Yeah? Well you know I love her so much.” He said, giving her more belly rubs and kisses. She simply laughed and looked away, noticing she had a call from Vinnie.
She excused herself to her patio and answer his call, “Hey Vinnie.”
“Hello my lovely sister, how are you on this fine morning?” He asked as he lifted a fork of pancakes to his mouth.
“Wait you actually said yes? So you’re leaving?” Milo said as he pulled her suitcase to his chest, attempting to want to keep her here.Smiling she nodded, “I think this would be better. You know my grandparents live in the city and I’ll be able to see Ryan.” She smiled but she knew she was going to miss her best friend and pack so much.“I wish I could go... but I’m meeting my mate's parents this weekend.” He said with a sad smile which she only smiled a grabbed her suitcase, “I’m gonna miss you like crazy.”“As I will too.”They walked downstairs which Ace attempted to grab her bags but she stopped him. “I can carry my bags on my own.” She remarks.
“Runa!” She heard a squealing boy run-up to her and hug her. Runa smiled, kneeling to his height and hugging him tightly.Nothing but cries and sniffles were heard making her heart warm. Pulling away she wiped his tears and they only continue to pour.“I missed you so much and every night—“ She shushes him as she noticed his breathing was funny. She wanted to calm him down which helped a bit.“It’s okay Ryan. I’m here now.” She ushered and he nodded looking up to his father.He takes in a couple of deep breaths before saying, “Daddy this was the surprise right?” He said with watery eyes.He nods, crying all over again which she just laughed, and
Knock on her door is what alerted Runa from her sleep. Alex soon came in and watched her, “Breakfast Runa.” He whispered, she wondered why he was whispering but then look at the little boy that crawled his way into her bed.Smiling, she ruffles his hair and says, “Ryan it’s time to wake up breakfast.” She whispered in his ear which he groaned.“Mmm no, five more minutes.” He said sloppily which she just smiled. Getting to his sides she tickles him uncontrollably which he laughed like none other. “O-okay! Runa I’m up, I’m up!!” He said in between laughter which she just stopped and watched him get out. “Be right back.” He yawned exiting her room.Alex only smiled at the scene. “Soon that little boy is gonna call you mama,” Alex said before leaving. She rolled her eyes be
Sure enough, she was no match for Ryan and Ace’s teamwork in the game they were playing. And for the rest of the day Ace couldn’t help but he selfish and flaunt their victory. That was the talk for the past two days.Every so chance she’s been trying to avoid him but somehow she always found herself next to him and he would laugh at her. She was frustrated.“You know you can’t run forever right?” Ryan said with a smug grin as he draws on his coloring book, Runa slightly narrowed her eyes at his remark.“Yeah I know, where is he anyway?” She asked, looking around suspiciously.“Daddy went jogging.” He said as he lifted his eyes from his coloring book to her more relaxed expression. He giggled.
Runa arrived back home around eight am. She yawned as she quietly opened the door and walked in. She then looked up as arms wrapped on her thigh. “Runa where were you? I thought you left me.” Ryan said, almost like he was going to cry at any moment.“I was with Ms.Erica.” She smiled but soon stopped when she soaked in what Ms.Erica said last night. She needed answers.Standing back up she walks in the kitchen and sees a very moody Alex, a stern glare on her back. “And where were you?” He asked.Chuckling she sits on the stool and Ryan sits on the one opposite, “Sorry I was with Ms.Erica.” She said, taking the plate of pancakes, bacon, and eggs. “Mmm, this smells great.”He clicked his tongue before handing h
“You’re cooking breakfast today?” Alex asked with a raised brow as he watched her. She was making some grits, pancakes, and eggs with jalapeño inside.Slightly offended she smacks his head, “Is it a surprise? I’m a really good cook.” She said as she made her last plate, adding some strawberries to the pancakes and a side of orange juice.She handed this last plate to Ace which he looked at it with surprise. He took the spork to his mouth and ate the eggs and a slight moan escape. He gave her an approving nod and Charlie and Sarah did as well.“Wow.” Ryan moaned as he ate his food a little bit faster and Ace scolded him. “Sorry.” Alex gave her thumbs up as he ate and everyone enjoyed their food as if it was
When they got to his office she took a seat as he leaned on the table with his head low. “I don’t mean to prude, I just want to know more about Ryan because I care for him and I want to protect him.“Ask what you please.” He said which she did.“Well, as you said Liz killed herself, Ms.Erica says that she believes that her daughter isn’t dead,” Runa said. Wanting to see how he’d react.He chuckled and shook his head, “That woman is crazy. She’s a witch. Obviously, I would know if my mate died we had a bond and that bond broke a long time ago.”She nodded, “What does Ryan know about his mother’s death?” She wondered.“I asked Erica if she could er
It was now the next day, well the next night. Runa was cuddled up in Ryan’s room watching some scary movie. He liked horror movies which Runa did as well. “You’re really special, you know that right?” She asked as she placed some candy in her mouth.“Daddy tells me that too. Not you as well.” He said with a rolled eye which Runa giggled and played with hair. “I know I’m special, my powers are crazy.” He said but suddenly tensed as he looked down.She noticed that and ran her hand through his hair, “Are you, okay love?” She asked.“U-um can we go to your room? I’m scared here.” He said as he quickly grabbed her hand and rushed her out of the room. Stumbling a bit she looked at how he was shaking a bit, like something really terrified him.
