Chapter 2
Aiken?”, I call to him when I see him talking to me outside the gate at these times.
Gosh! What heritage is he doing here and who is he talking to? I approached him when I saw that he was still talking to the man who seemed to be turning his back. I can't see his or her face because he's all black and wearing a mask and shades.
What is he feeling Korean idol?
I saw him say something to my son then Aiken nodded while wearing his wide smile. Suddenly the man stood up and immediately ran away. From his height, I know he's a man.
Hey! You! Who are you?", I kept shouting at him but he just ran. I tried to catch him but he's quite fast so I stopped gasping.
Mommy pretty!", He shouted vigorously as he immediately ran towards me giving me a hug. I hug him back. I was suddenly nervous about that person that he might do something bad to my son.
Baby are you okay?", I asked him and checked him if he is fine. He frowned and I know because I called him baby again. "Oops! Are you okay my big boy?", He smiled at me. Yes mom."
Who was that guy? Didn't I tell him not to talk to strangers? What if he's a bad man?", I asked him with concern.
He's not a bad man mom. Look he gave me this!", He showed me the open gift he was carrying. I took and saw action figures of One Piece characters that are his favorite. "He said it's his gift mom.", He added.
Aiken next time do not accept things from strangers okay? Tell me if you want something and I'll buy them for you.", I reminded him.
But mom he's not a stranger.", He said while pouting.
Do you know him?", We just arrived here last night so it's really impossible that he already knew someone.Of course! But I won't tell you his name because I promised to him not to tell you.", My son said looking so adorably innocent.
Okay I'll let this slide this time but next time, promise me big boy. You won't accept another gift from that man. If you see him stay away from him okay? Because we don't know if he's really a bad man or a good man. ", he just nodded. He's smart so I'm sure he understands what I meant.
"Promised mom.", I just carried her into the house.
I really have a bad feeling about this and I hope I'm wrong! Things will get messy again for a long time and I don't want that to happen. I am now happy and contented with my life together with Steve and Aiken.
Jaynee's POV
This is the day!
I am currently looking myself at the mirror. I am wearing the amber mermaid gown I bought at Euna’s botique yesterday. It was just a simple yet elegant fully beaded with amber beads V cut mermaid night gown. Slim fit with sexy back. I'm not very exposed but honestly I look nice and don't seem to have children. I also wore my killer heels because I know I'll show off later so I won't lose! I just ended up in my mischief with a knock.
Come in.", I replied and the door opened wide and Bea entered smiling.
Hey, you're really beautiful Jaynee! My gosh, Aiden is so dead to you!", He chika.
I know right.", I smiled in response to it. Don't be really talkative, Bea, that's why we became close to that.
He's already there. Are you done?", He asked.
Tell me I'll be next.", I said then took my purse and cellphone. Steve will come after us while mom and dad, that was before.
"Sure", he replied then quickly came out.
I look at myself for the last time. I did my own make up because I didn't allow others to do my make up because their work was too thick.
I made my way to the living room where they were. I saw my baby boy in a mini black suit with a black ribbon. Steve, on the other hand, is really handsome in his suit, they are the same as Aiken's clothes and hair style, but Steve only has a black necktie.
I saw him smile but I just rolled my eyes. We don't greet each other because who wouldn't be annoyed if he didn't pay attention to me all day even though we were eating. When he delivered me, he didn't even say a word and left without saying goodbye.
Mommy you're so pretty!", Aiken shouted then jumped while holding his daddy's hand. I walk towards them and kiss my son on his cheek.
You're too big boy, your so handsome.", I said while smiling.
What about me pretty?", I saw Steve pouting his lips but I ignored him. It's delicious because his snout is sewn! Arrghhh! I'm shivering!
Let's go.", Then I took Aiken's hand.
I heard him heaving a deep sigh but we just walked to his red Mustang. I'm really in love with his car so it's like I'm salivating while staring at it. I put Aiken in the back seat and Steve even opened me in the passenger's seat. He kissed my forehead before we took off so I was disgusted with myself because I should be disgusted but why am I nervous.
He's silently driving while we quietly listen to Aiken's never-ending speech. Oh my! Who else is this child? eh not of course mommy! They are both talkative.
Daddy handsome are you listening?", He asked Steve so I looked at him who was now looking at the road but smiling.
Of course big boy.", He tried to raise his voice.
So does it mean when I grew up you'll set me a date with Ariana Grande?", I looked up at Steve.
Pucha! Until now, haven't I been able to move on from my quarrel with Ariana Grande?
Hehehe m-maybe?", He looked at me as if asking my permission but I just raised an eyebrow at him. It's up to you to make your daughter suffer because you taught her to be a woman!
Just yes or no dad.", My son demanded.
Fine. I will help you.", Aiken was happy from behind.
After that Steve continued driving. It was night so there was no traffic and we got to the venue easily.
We are greeted by usherettes and they lead is to the main venue. It's not just a simple celebration and I can say the whole place is quite grand and elegant. Royal blue and white is the motif. There are a lot of visitors and I guess most of them are the Montellon's business partners.
We saw mom and dad with aunt Gertrude in a long evening gown in royal blue as well. She is with her husband, uncle Sid, Steve’s daddy.
Happy birthday mom, you're really old. You too dad, same with mom you're really old.", Steve joked and then kissed his aunt's cheek. We laughed and even Aiken, who only understood a little Tagalog, joined in.
You're just jealous son.", He recovered. Hi Jaynee! You're lovely as ever.", He greeted enthusiastically then we kissed.You too Aunt. Happy birthday po.", I greeted smiling.
"OMG! Is this Aiken, my grandson?", He immediately trimmed my son. "Sid he's so handsome!", He called his uncle.
Hello grandma and grandpa. I'm Aiken Evan Montellon!", He politely greeted and he even initiated introducing himself.
You're so cute grandson.", Uncle said to him.
After we greeted my aunt, Steve and Aiken and I went to the designated table for us because it was about to start. Uncle called Steve so he said goodbye for a while. Eventually I was distracted by a familiar voice from behind me.
Jaynee sister! Is that you?", I saw Aunt Suzette and Uncle Jerwin. I immediately approached them and hugged them.
Yes aunt, this is my uncle.", I politely told them.
You look stunning Jaynee.", Ucnel praised and so I smiled at him. Uncle Jerwin is the older brother of Uncle Sid.
I want you to meet someone. Aiken come here!", I said politely and then called my son who had been looking at me for a while.
Their eyes widened as they saw my son. Maybe it's because of my baby boy haha! Aunt immediately bend her feet to match my son.
Is this Aiken Evan? My grandson?", She asks emotionally. I can see tears at the side of her eyes and I know she's trying not to cry right now.
Yes. He's your grandson. Aiken bless your grandfather Jerwin and grandmother Suzette.", My son immediately followed.
Hello grandpa Suzette and grandpa Jerwin!", He said enthusiastically after kissing.
My grandson is so adorable. And my son just proved that he is really a jerk.", Tito Jerwin suddenly interjected which I just ignored.
After that, the aunts sat down. We are just on the same table together with mom and dad from their aunt Gertrude. Shellie, Steve's youngest sister, is also here. This is another one of excessive chatter and the brain never runs out of topic. Every minute there is a new stretch.
I swear he's so creepy like duh! Maybe that's really ugly.", He said artfully while telling the story of the stalker who always sends him love letters and flowers every day.
I decided not to give too much attention on her blabbing. I also noticed that there are three vacant chairs so for sure there will be more to come.
Thank you for coming ladies and gentlemen. I am so much blessed for this day that God gave my mom another birthday to celebrate.", Steve spoke so we all looked at him.
He said a lot more but I didn't focus on him but on him. He's really handsome and I can only see with my own two eyes that the other woman somewhere is still peeking at him! Can I give you a tissue to wipe their saliva? Steve found my eyes and he smiles at me but I just sniffed him and looked at the newcomers sitting in the vacant chair at our table.
