Filthy Rich by Atarah Yvaine (electronic reader txt) 📖

I needed to go home that day because I had an important meeting. Deus wants to go with me, but he can't. He also needs to attend to something important that night, so we don't have a choice but to separate ways again. We promise that we will make time before he finally takes his flight home. And sadly, we didn't find time to bond again. I got so busy and so did he.

Now, we are on our way to the airport to accompany Kai and the Cavelli family to the airport. It happened that they had the same flight together. Ali is as sad as I am. We can't even speak because of the homesickness we have started to feel.

Deus is sleeping next to me. He was so tired that he fell asleep the moment we got in the car. It's a good thing that we are riding a van to the airport, so he doesn't need to drive. Ali and Kai are in another car, and my best friend is driving it. I understand that she wants to have quality time with him. I know she is reminding him of a lot of things. Like my brother's dos and don’ts while she is away. Ali is a jealous woman and, oh my gosh, she gets jealous of almost every lady my brother is working with. Sometimes they are so childish in their relationship, but I can see that they really love each other.

Charlie is sitting on my lap. He's been crying on his booster seat and Tres hasn't been able to calm him, so I got him to sit and play with me. Tres is so tired as well. I can see that he was trying to stay awake to play with his kid, but he fell asleep eventually. Poor Cavelli's. Primo, on the other hand, is babysitting his child while Namika sleeps. The two old Cavellis are in a separate car.

"Mama, hungwy," Charlie says, cutely rubbing his tummy. His nanny gave him a treat. A cute chocolate biscuit. He sweetly and adorably ravished it. This kid is so cute.

"Tummy", he pointed at his tummy. "Full," he said with a smile, and I laughed because the sides of his lips were chocolate-covered.

Then he rubbed his eye and leaned against my chest. Aww, he's finally sleepy.

His nanny got some wet wipes and gave them to me. I cleaned his face and hands. Minutes later, he finally visits his dreamland.

He is heavy, and my arms and legs are getting numb, but I will not trade this moment for relief. Only a short span of time is left for me to bond with this child.

I don't know when I will see him again, so I'd better make the best out of it. I will surely miss him and Ace. I suddenly have this strong will to go home.

Deus suddenly moved. I look at him and he is cutely rubbing his eyes. Another cute creature.

"Kiss," he pouted as he pressed his face against mine. I gave him a peck and he smiled. Clingy is not enough to describe him. He fixed his hair, and I just watched him do whatever he was doing.

"What?" he asked when he noticed that I was just staring at him.

"Nothing," I said, avoiding his eyes.

"Aren't you tired? You can put Chayi back in his seat, "he suggested, but I shake my head. I want him close to me.

"No, let him be comfortable in my arms. Look at him nibbling his thumb. He's so cute. " I can't stop myself from admiring this kid.

“Wait till you see when we have our own. I'm sure that our potatoes will be cuter, "he confidently said.

Potato? Did he just call our future kid "potato"?

“How will that happen when, in the first place, Chayi's father is cuter than you? more handsome, hotter, and the list goes on that you can't even catch up, not even the first born of the Cavelli's Golden Trio. " Tres said, showing us his face and flexing his muscles. I laughed while Deus gave him a glare.

"You're the ugliest of us three." Primo attacked Tres, and I suppressed a laugh.

“I'll ask mom of who is the most handsome. I'm sure she'll pick me. " Tres declares proudly

"Mama's boy," Deus mumbled, and Tres just smirked. He knew Nayana would pick him. He always has her side, even in every argument. The perks of being the youngest child

Soon enough, we reached the airport. I already saw Kai and Ali in the distance. Ali looks so unhappy. She is clinging to my brother's arms like a koala. I can also see sadness in Kai's eyes. Sometimes I blame myself for their unhappiness. Actually, Ali can go home to be with my brother all the time, but she always chooses to stay because of me.

“Bye, bro. May you have a safe trip. I'll miss you even though you love bullying me.” I hugged him and he laughed at my statement. He ruffled my hair, and he got a glare from me.

“I'll miss you too, little sis. My life is boring without someone to have fun with. That's why I love having a little sister. At least I have someone to tease and bully.” I hit his arm.

"Mean." I said to him, and he chuckled.

“Now go to your grumpy man. He is waiting for you to say goodbye.” He pointed at Deus, who looked so bored, standing at a distance.

I hugged Kai tightly for the last time and ran to Deus. I hugged him tightly and kissed his cheeks.

"Keep safe and try to call me when you arrive home." I reminded him, and he just nodded.
