Inside the car, Ram unconsciously smiled as he touched his lips. He just left Chelsy, though he wanted to stay a bit longer and perhaps have dinner with her. Maybe some other time, he would just bring Chelsy and have a formal dinner with the family every now and then.

He shook his head and heaved a long sigh, realizing how he was acting like a teenager kissing his crush.

But then he could not help the tingling sensation in his heart and the feeling of it being active once again.

He came back home and saw Miley had already arrived first, she was already watching some news at the living area. She had the teasing look on her face which Senior Sy intentionally ignored or else his daughter would start teasing him nonstop.

But Miley seemed to be in the mood for not letting him go and said, “Father, come and let’s watch the news together while waiting for others for dinner.”

Senior Sy then sat with her.

“How is Chelsy?” she casually asked, presuming he came back from the apartment and visited her.

“She’s good. Thank you for helping her out.” Senior Sy answered. He was grateful that his children were very supportive in this kind of matter and the ones who were also pushing him to express himself and seize the opportunity.

“We only hope what is best for you, father. Chelsy seems to be a nice woman, and she’s into you…” Miley commented but suddenly stared at the entertainment news.

“Rio Tang?” she murmured as she listened to the news about the actress’ demise.

Senior Sy shook his head and muttered, “It’s sad to hear news about young people committing suicide like that…”

Miley also nodded. The actress was very young and it was said that she fell into a great depression when her career went down and reached its downfall.

“Isn’t she a known star-like Brione?” Senior Sy asked.

“Yeah, but they are on a different level. Brione is a superstar father. I heard the star had a lot of complaints against her before because of her attitude. Anyway, I’ll just check what they’ve prepared for dinner. Liam, Jorge, and Lana would arrive soon.” Miley said and stood up from her seat, leaving Senior Sy alone on the couch.

Senior Sy picked up his phone from his pocket and looked around before tapping on it.

He subconsciously smiled while typing a message to Chelsy.

[Don’t skip dinner…] Then clicked the send button.

His face reddened when Jorge approached out of a sudden and he quickly put his mobile phone back in his pocket.

“Good evening, father!” Jorge, as usual, enthusiastically greeted.

He sat beside Senior Sy when his mobile phone gave a beep.

“Oh, you have a message, father. Do you want me to read for you?” Jorge said because they knew how their father hated using mobile phones and would always let them read or text and make a call on his behalf.

“It’s okay. I will read it later.” Senior Sy answered. Jorge was too quick to guess the sender, so he teased, “Read it now, father. You may see a text message saying something like ‘eat dinner’, ‘I miss you’ or ‘I love you'”

“This brat!” Senior Sy scoffed and turned, but Jorge quickly stood up. Walking out he said, “I’ll go change first, father. See you at dinner. Check the message now and don’t keep a woman waiting…”

Senior Sy crumpled his face, regretting why his love life was too open to his kids, who seemed not to stop in teasing him in every opportunity they could get.

Dinner was served and everyone had a hearty meal with their family conversations about various things. Miley on the other hand could not help but wonder if she too would end up like her sister-in-law, who was eating nonstop when she got pregnant as well.

“I miss Chelsy’s jackfruit cake…” Lana commented.

“I will ask her tomorrow to bake it for you, dear,” Senior Sy answered, giving a beautiful smile on Lana’s face as she murmured, “Thank you, father.”

“Sis, don’t forget our fitting tomorrow. I will pick you up,” Miley reminded Lana because they would have a double wedding ceremony.

Lana nodded, and soon dinner ended.

*******

Miley waited in her room for some time before she went out and looked around. She carefully and silently walked towards Jorge’s wing.

She smiled when she opened the door of Jorge’s room because it was not locked, as if Jorge was expecting her arrival. He probably expected her last night, but she intentionally did not sneak into his room so he missed her for a night.

He was on the bed already, sleeping. Miley locked the door and naughtily crawled on the bed and laid down on top of him. She kept her head on his chest and playfully touched his lips with her fingers and whispered, “Wake up sleepy head.”

But Jorge did not move at all. Miley leaned over and showered his face with kisses. Then, she whispered in his ear, “Wake up now… Or I’ll leave and won’t give you an amazing night.”

Jorge opened his eyes the instant he heard her threat, and quickly sn.a.k.e.d his arms around Miley’s waist. He rolled on the bed while pressing her down and complained in his raspy voice, “Why didn’t you come here last night? I slept so late… I kept waiting for you…”

Miley raised an eyebrow and chided, “Why didn’t you sneak into my room instead?”

“Ah… because your unreasonable brother, Liam, is around. He would have killed me if he had seen me trespassing into your room… But had it been you … He would’ve just turned a blind eye to it…”

Miley laughed and said, “And why is that?”

“Ahh, he will just think that you can’t get a hold of yourself anymore because you’re so head over heels in love with me. But for me, he will think I’m a pervert who couldn’t wait for us to get married first and wait for the first night as husband and wife…”
