"Why did you bring him here?" Keith asked. Even if he's calm there's a warning the way he spoke.
"I'm sorry, he doesn't want me to leave your house, that's why I brought him here," Zachary explained while carrying Kaizer while the child was quietly listening to them.
"Huh, why did you go to my house?" He asks again, this eyebrow frowning again.
"I just want to visit him ok, Wait are you mad at me?" He finally asks because he feels the way Keith speaks there's a cold tone in there.
"Dad, are you mad? I just want him to stay, that's why he brought me here and I don't want to be alone in our house," Kaizer convinced him. He understands what Zachary and I are talking about.
This time Keith finally looks at his son before he gets his son from the Zachary.
"No, I'm not, I'm just worried." Now he is already carrying Kaizer.
"Don't be beside brother with me and can I ask for your approval? I want to go to his house, please Dad..." he asks with puppy eyes as he looks in Zachary's direction and stares at him.
"What if I won't allow you to come?" Keith asks. Kaizer began to frown at his dad.
"Don't worry I will keep my attention on him," Zachary said while smiling. Keith shakes his head the way Zachary smiles at him. He can't help not to look away. It looks like a Zachary smile burning him.
"How can I trust you?" He asked with his serious tone. Even though he can see that Zachary has good intentions, he can't let his guard down and trust someone whom he just met a few times.
"Because I care for him. I don't want to interfere but he already said that he doesn't want to be lonely and I'm here to accompany him. Besides my house is not far from your village, You can fetch him after your work," Keith looked at his son he was convinced by Zachary's word. He was guilty that he left his son without anyone with him. Keith finally sighs and starts to nod.
"Doc, we need to go." The nurse interrupts their conversation because of that, Zachary turns around and looks at the nurse who's calling Keith.
He looks at her from toe to head with judgment in his eyes. The girl can feel a chill on his spine when he notices that Zachary is trying to observe him. 'Tss does she can't see that we're talking?!' Zachary said inside his head before rolling his eyes.
"Wait for a minute Nathalie, I need to talk to them," I said with a calm voice.
"Bu-" She wants to protest but she looks at Zachary who is glaring at her without Keith noticing it. The girl avoids Zachary's eyes, she just looks at the floor and finally surrenders.
"It's ok don't worry, I'll take care of him and here's your lunch. We need to go. Kaizer also needs to eat his lunch,'' Zachary said he already gave the food to Keith.
After that, he tried to get Kaizer from Keith's hand and carry him.
"Bye Dad, take care." He said and kissed his dad.
"Thank you." Zachary shows a wide smile at him and looks at the nurse with a warning glare. The way he glares saying 'Don't you dare to flirt with him if you still want to live
They turn around to take a leave put Kaizer in his passenger seat and put on the seatbelt before he walks around to go through driver-side.
"Brother, are you mad?" He asks. When Zachary finally got inside the car and now he was fixing the seat belt.
"No, I'm not." He starts the engine but he hears knocking on his car making him stop.
He opened the window but he was stunned when he saw Keith standing in front of his car window.
"What?" He asked, he tried to manage not to panic and asked that with a calm voice.
"Can I have your number?" Once again Zachary is stunned and he thinks that he is imagining some scenarios.
"It's OK if you don't want to," he said. That's why Zachary went back to his senses and waved his hand so many times while Mee was amazed by Zachary's reaction. He coughs to suppress to smile.
"No!!.... Here's my number. But you can have me instead- I-I mean you can have it." He wants to punch his face because of the words coming from his mouth. Keith looks at him with amazement in his eyes but he chooses not to care for that word and gets Zachary's number so they can go now.
Zachary starts to smile while driving. He didn't notice that there was a child beside him listening but the child kept his mouth shut even though he understood a few words he stayed silent.
A few minutes later Zachary stopped his car inside the garage before he looked at Kaizer and spoke. "We're here."
"Wow brother, are you sure you're the only one who's living here?" he asks. Zachary didn't answer and he got Kaizer out of the car.
They went inside but Kaizer began to ask a question again.
"Where's your animal?" he asks again. Zachary put him down when they arrived.
He was about to answer when there was a voice coming out not far from their position. "What animal?" the five coming out to the living room.
"Who are they?" Kaizer frown. He didn't remember Steffan and Ivan, that's why he felt uncomfortable.
"They are the ones who I mention," Zachary said while suppressing his laughter.
"But brother, they don't look like animals," he said. He starts looking at them like scanning, finding the part of them that Zachary wants to point out.
"WHAT BOSS?! You just said that we are animals to a child" Ivan complained because of that his voice echoed all around the house.
"Pshh don't act like you're affected by that. Correction you're the animal he mentions," Steffan said making Ivan roll his eyes.
"Hi there," Sean went in Kaizer's direction but the child ran toward Zachary back to hide. Zachary carefully pulled him to stop him from hiding.
"Don't be afraid.... You can play with them but first, you need to eat ok?" he said and carried him again through the kitchen. He notices that his gang is following them to the kitchen but he doesn't bother to talk.
Zachary puts Kaizer to a chair and he prepares Kaizer food that they buy.
The boys were watching him with their mouths open. They didn't expect that they would see their boss caring for others. Their boss is one of the people who has a lazy attitude that's why they're shocked to see this kind of scenario.
"Keep your mouth shut," their boss said because he noticed that all of them were looking at him while their mouths were open.
When they return to their senses they sit in an empty chair. "We need food too Mae," They began to tease, but Zachary threw some spoons in their direction.
"Ouch we're hungry mae," they tease again. This time they're not afraid because they know Zachary can't let his true aura out because the child is with them.
"Why do they keep calling you a mother?" Kaizer curiously while looking at them. All of them start laughing except Zachary and Kaizer.
"Shut up!" Zachary shout. All of them stop laughing but still suppress their laughter.
"You didn't answer my question?" Kaizer asks again which makes Zachary sigh.
"Don't worry, they're just crazy because of the lack of injection. Now I answer your question, so eat your food OK?" He said. Kaizer didn't ask anything again now he was already eating what Zachary prepared for him.
"We're hungry too," his gang complained. The funny thing is they're pouting. Instead of being cute in front of Zachary's face, it makes him more.
"Eat your finger," Zachary said while glaring at them. They are just doing it because Zachary knows that they're teasing him.
"It's unfair we are visitors too." Saying that while they're still pouting.
"You're calling yourself a visitor? You live here!" Zachary shouted but he stopped to continue speaking when he felt Kaizer startle beside him.
"But we haven't eaten yet," they said. Zachary didn't want to hear some complaining. He put his wallet into his pocket and gave them money.
'Why do I feel like I'm their mother? t
This f*cking asshole's. He is already shouting inside his head because he can't shout while the child is with them.
"Yes Ivan, go buy some food." Steffan gave the credit card from Zachary Hand.
"No way," he complains. Ivan crosses his hand and looks away.
"Ugh all of you give me a headache Just order some food." All of them become silent and quietly start to order some food. Zachary sits beside Kaizer.
"Are you mad at them?" Kaizer asks but Zachary shakes his head.
"No, just eat, don't talk while eating ok?" he said and patted Kaizer's head. Kaizer obeyed him and started eating without speaking.
While Zachary was doing it he didn't realize that his gang was looking at them sharing the same thought. 'Our boss is really in love with the doctor huh? Even taking care of his son he will do it without hesitation..... Love can change our boss huh."Download Novelah App
