My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1220
Ren felt bad when he saw her eating in such a hurry. “Slow down. No one’s going to stop you from eating,” he chided. “But I’m so hungry! I only took a couple of bites at your house today,” Ruka exclaimed, but her words were a little muffled by how full her mouth was.
Ren gave her an affectionate smile. “You won’t be able to sleep tonight if you’re too full.”
“Then, if I can’t sleep tonight, can I sleep in tomorrow?” Ruka asked. She felt the need to seek his permission each time she wanted to sleep in at his house, or else, she would not be able to sleep well.
“You can sleep for as long as you want,” Ren promised as his smile widened. Ruka looked at him and asked, “How should I address you now?”
“What would you prefer?” he ventured expectantly. “Ren, Ruka declared. By dropping the ‘mister, it felt like they would become equals now.
“Alright. You can call me that for now, but you’ll have to use something else after the May elections,” Ren reminded. He could not wait to hear her addressing him with something else entirely.
Ruka’s mind was blank at first, but when she realized what he meant, she blushed and nodded shyly. “Okay. When the time comes, I’ll call you hubby.”
Ren had not eaten much yet, but now, he could tell that his stomach was not the one that was hungry. Every fiber of his being yearned for the woman who sat in front of him right now. He could barely push the feeling away. It was fine when she was not around him, but now that she was here with him and smiling so brightly, he found that his patience was being tested to the limit.
All of a sudden, soft thuds could be heard. from the window. When Ruka turned to look and saw what was happening, her eyes widened in surprise and she exclaimed, “It’s snowing!”
She quickly set her cutlery down and rushed out to the garden to enjoy the first snowfall of the year.
By the time Ren caught up to her, he found her whirling about in the snow like. a carefree child who was trying to find the prettiest snowflake. He had been standing there for a while to watch her when all of a sudden, she turned dizzy and stumbled over to him.
Immediately, he opened his arms to catch her. She had nearly forgotten about her fainting spell earlier today. She was still a little weak from the lack of oxygen and should not be engaging in strenuous activity, which included spinning around.
Thankfully, Ren was nearby. In her dizziness, she instinctively fell into his embrace.
Ren held her steady and bent down to observe her face. She was still trying to catch her breath, but she buried her head against his chest and refused to leave.
He could not resist pinching her cheeks as he chuckled lovingly.
Ruka looked up at him and fluttered her eyelashes. “Am I beautiful, Ren?”
Ren’s eyes flickered a little as the pretty little face that belonged to the woman in his arms right now made his mind wander. She was not the most beautiful woman in the world, but she was the one he loved the most. No one could ever replace the smile on her face or the sound of her voice. She was his source of light and hope..
“You’re gorgeous,” he said..
