I made sure to hug her tighter, kissing the side of her face.
“You love me just like this.”
She chuckled.
“I do. I always will.”
“Good, because I’m not playing with you, bunny. I will never let you go.”
She nodded.
“I know that too, Kash. I do.”
“Better that you do. Now, are you here all by yourself?”
“No,” a voice I knew belonged to Graham spoke. “I went to get some coffee. Glad to see you’re out, neph.”
I tried to let go Mila so I could stand but she refused. Both Graham and I laughed as I stood, and she wrapped her legs around me.
“Guess, this is how I’m getting home then huh?”
I turned to face a smiling Graham.
“She’s been worried.”
I nodded as I held her close to me.
“I’ve been worried about her and even you. I know you talked to dad. Thank you.”
Graham smirked then shrugged.
“I wouldn’t call it talking maybe more of coercion, but it worked. My big brother is an annoying bastard, that one. By the way, ya look like shit.”
I laughed again, shaking my head.
“You never miss to tell me that Unc. You’re such an asshole.”
He winked.
“Let’s get you guys home.”

After having the longest shower of my life while Graham and Mila chit chatted was the best feeling ever. After my shower, I did the basics of applying lotion, brushing my teeth, and setting my suits aside for dry cleaning, I got dressed wearing a white tee and loose faded jeans. When I got to the dining room, Graham and Mila had started talking about work. I rolled my eyes, I thought I was the one who brought work, home.
Mila knew I was in the room even before I fully stepped in and she turned to face me. I winked at her as I moved closer to them.
“You want something to eat, baby?” She sweetly asked me.
I smiled at her shaking my head.
“No, I’m good, bunny.”
Her face contorted with a weird expression.
“You sure? I can make you something quickly or like maybe you want a coffee?” She turned to face Graham with her back to me. “What about you Graham, you want something?”
Graham peered up at me and then back at Mila. Even before he answered, I knew his answer.
