"I am having dinner," Apple said casually as she took the portion of calamari from Jayden's lap of which there was still half left. "Besides, I didn't eat two servings. I fed you both, remember?" Apple defended herself, but this only made Jayden frown, staring at her intently.
"Well, it's two servings now," he said as Apple scooped up his portion of calamari and pushed aside the empty box she had 'swept clean'.
"Why? Do you mind?" asked Apple with a sharp look on her face. She waited to hear what Jayden would say about this, but the man leaned his body over and kissed her cheek gently instead.
"It's okay you can eat as much as you want, I'll buy you some more later if you still want to eat the calamari," Jayden said in a cheerful voice, but he kept his eyes on Apple and stared intently at how she enjoyed her meal.
The three of them finally talked for a few more moments and it wasn't until after midnight that Apple went to her room first because she was already sleepy and fell asleep as soon as her head hit the pillow.
"So, when are you going to do that paternity test?" Jayden asked, opening a new bottle for the two of them.
"She still doesn't want Mikaela to be tested," Misha said. "I can force her to do that…" he mumbled again.
"Are you sure you want to force her to do that? She could really hate you if you did that." Jayden said this quietly, trying to get Misha to understand the problem here.
"Yeah," Misha groaned. He then leaned back and closed his eyes tightly. "This is fucked up…"
Jayden can only sympathize with his cousin because if that woman didn't even want Misha to be in her child's life, then what his cousin was doing was a very, very bad thing.
"What exactly did you do to that woman that she was hating you with passion?" Jayden was curious about this.
On the other hand, Misha did not immediately answer the question. He was silent for a moment and opened his eyes to stare thoughtfully at the ceiling, but he didn't say anything.
So, Jayden waited, hoping he would say something, but as it turned out, Misha just finished his drink and immediately stood up and went into Pyro's room to sleep.
What?
Jayden scowled. He waited long enough to hear his answer, but he just left him to go into the room just like that?
Jayden felt really annoyed with his cousin but then, he thought deeply. What was it like to be a father?
His eyes then turned to the closed door of Apple's room, he then spun the glass in his hand and thought for a moment about this. And a moment later, the corners of his lips curved into a sweet smile as he imagined a little creature that looked like himself and Apple…
And after that, Jayden walked into Apple's room, to find the girl had curled up and was fast asleep. She didn't even care about her surroundings anymore and just fell asleep like that.
Slowly, Jayden walked closer to Apple and laid down beside her. He pulled her body closer and she turned around to hug him back.
Apple's body felt very soft and warm in his arms and this helped Jayden to sleep faster.
Maybe it was due to the alcohol, but he felt very calm and peaceful when he had this girl in his arms.
"I love you, Apple…" he squeezed her body a little bit tighter and got a cute mumbling sound from her in response.
And so they slept until morning came.
=======================
Rachel really couldn't reach Ivan and she felt like she was going to go crazy at this rate.
She had no idea what was wrong with Ivan and what had happened between the two of them. Weren't they still fine the last time he called her? Then what happened now?
Rachel again tried to call Ivan, but his phone number could not be reached. She also tried to go to Ivan's apartment, but he had changed his password and he wasn't there.
Rachel had confirmed that. The car wasn't even there.
So why had Ivan avoided her for days and why didn't he contact her even for once? What did he know? Did he finally realize that Rachel had been cheating on him?
Rachel tugged at her hair roughly because of the frustration she was feeling. She didn't understand what else she should do now.
"Damn it!" She then threw her cell phone across the room and threw her body on the mattress hard. She felt she wanted to hit someone and vent her frustration on someone, but on whom? Even now, Derek was nowhere to be seen.
Rachel tried to calm herself down, but that was hard to do when all she wanted was to get angry, but didn't have the right target.
And when she was silent for a moment, Rachel then remembered something. She then immediately got up from her bed and took back the cellphone she had thrown.
Luckily, the phone wasn't damaged at all and she quickly searched Gladys' social media. The girl liked to party and was very active on social media, so it was very easy to find her whereabouts now.
And after a while of investigating Gladys' current location, Rachel realized where the girl was and immediately changed clothes to join Gladys' party.
This might not be a good idea, but Rachel wanted to have someone beside her now.
Therefore she immediately rushed to clean her body and quickly got dressed, applied her make up and immediately ran out of her apartment to meet Gladys.
And Derek? The man had been unreachable for days and just like Ivan, he had also turned off his cell phone and now, Rachel had absolutely no idea where Derek was.
He could have died somewhere without anyone knowing...
