82 The Box (1/2)

Tereza could feel her body turn hotter, but in the next moment, suddenly cool down. She felt wet and comfortable outside. Her heavy eyelids slightly open and she could only saw a blurred image. A certain man lips kissed her red high bridge nose.

She was coughing and cling to his neck. Tereza muttered, ”Help me...daddy.”

The man was dumbfounded. But, he remembered that this woman was in frail condition. He reached his hand to wipe all the sweat from her body and change her to new clothes. He took some porridge that the servant prepared, to feed her.

Tereza didn't know what happened, but she could feel her stomach was full. When she tried to sleep again, the man started to open her lips and shoved something inside. She gulped and then confused what just happened.

...

By the time she woke up, she saw an amazing sight! Her husband carried their baby son to his embrace, sleeping soundly. He was in a phone with his hand patting and stroking Ringo's butt. She could see her son little chubby cheek pressing on his shoulder.

She called him weakly, trying to get up. ”Han...”

When he heard the hoarse voice, he halts his phone and hangs up. He strode to her side and held her body. ”Tereza...don't move.”

”I'm fine. Why are you here? Weren't you at work?” She asked curiously. Her face was still hot but at least not like before.

He took a small stool and sat beside her. He said with a soft voice, ”I'm on my leave today. I'll be working again after you get better.”

”Why are you taking care of Ringo? Where's the nanny?”

He told him about what happened three hours ago. Tereza looked at her husband marvelously, her eyes were sparkling. She said, ”Han, so you took care of Chibi Ringo today?”

Han embarrassed and feeling ashamed, he nodded. ”I felt I'm not a good father to him.”

Tereza giggling and stroke his hair which was wet from sweating. There was still a trace of milk powder on the corner of his chin. She could see how he work hard to take care of their son. She drew her face to lick the leftover baby milk powder on his. She muttered, ”You're good enough.”

Han stunned and looked at her red face. At the moment, he didn't care about her sickness and kissed her lips back, passionately. He smiled at the end.

When they let go of their lips, Tereza said, ”I'm fine now. Let me take care of Ringo. You can go to work again, I heard you've been busy lately.”

He frowned, ”Did you just driving me away?”

Tereza laughed at his childish statement, she pinched his both cheeks and said, ”No. I did not. I was just worried about your company problem. I know you were having a hard time yet I couldn't help you much besides trying to live your expectation with my part as your wife and business partner.” she let go his cheeks and held his hand.

She continues, ”Next time. Don't be like this anymore to me, It was just a simple fever, if it's serious, you may consider it. I know you're worried about me, but I don't want you to become an irresponsible person. I felt sorry for the people who put their work harder because of this 'simple' reason.”

Han stupefied from her preaching. He said with trouble tone, ”But it's not a 'simple' reason to me Tereza. Every time you hurt or sick, I felt I'm dying. What should I do?”

Tereza looked at the frowning man, no, big baby in front of her. She looked at her son who still sleeping in his embrace. No difference. Big baby and small baby.

She sighed, ”Then, I'll try not to get hurt or sick again.”

She brought her forehead leans closer to his. They both could feel each other temperature. Han nodded to her temperature. His wife was fine already. He asked, ”Promise?” while his head staying, touching her.

She moves her lips and kissed his nose. ”Promise. You too, 'kay? Remember what I just warned.”

He answered with unsure feeling.

In the end, he said, ”... I'll try my best.” to hold out my worry.

...

Two days later.

Han was trying to put Ringo to his little yellow outfit. But Ringo was throwing tantrum, he didn't want to wear that outfit! Ringo pouted and turn his back from his dad.

Hmph!

Han was trouble and faces Tereza with a pitiful face. 'Help, wife!'

”You said you wanted to learn how to take care of a baby, then don't give up,” Tereza said the matter factly while she faces the mirror, brushing her hair and put a little makeup on her face.

The nanny was back and stay at the side, watching the master taking care of the young master. She couldn't help to smile to see a father's love for his child. Han looked at the nanny, hoping. But it turns different from his expectation, she said. ”As the madam suggested Master. You need to overcome this if you want to advance the next level.”

Han made a face like ｡ﾟ(*´□`)ﾟ｡

”Son, be a good boy~ Now wear this clothes~” Han pleading to his son.

”Nau!” No!
