84- Mending Bonds

The following Sunday, it was his day off. Our lives were coming back to the normal track. We were at the hospital after doing the pregnancy test, at the doctor's office and upon seeing Sebastian's grin, I couldn't help but to chuckle. "Congratulations, Mr and Mrs Stellios, the reports are positive. You guys are going to be parents." She informed us and Sebastian gasped, kissing my hand, grinning so widely and arrestingly that I got stunned. Exhilarated, we both grinned, holding hands to imagine starting a family together, taking our happily ever after to a whole new level of delight. "I love you so much, Eileen. Thank you so much for entering my life." Whispering, he rested my hand on his cheek, laughing feebly to perceive he was going to be a Father. The doctor also laughed, seeing us happy. "How can I not? My Prince Charming came to me after all." Humming, I gave his hand a tight squeeze. After taking the prescriptions, we were coming back. "Sebastian. Let's go to your parents place first. Mrs Stellios' state is becoming weaker, let's hope hearing this would cheer her up." I suggested. She was ravaged, I believe only this news could give her new hope and happiness. "Yeah, you are right." He nodded, a smile not leaving his lips. 'Ah, keep smiling, you look gorgeous like that." Laughing, I pinched his cheek, loving the grin on his lips. 'How can I not?" He mumbled, his joy was gleaming in his eyes as we went to his parents place first. We were about to enter her room but I stopped Sebastian, "And please… hug her." "I will. I won't repeat my mistake." He nodded, kissing my hands as we entered her room. She was laying down, holding the sheets sorrowfully. We came happily and sat on either side of her. 'Hey, Mrs Stellios, how are you?" I asked sweetly, sitting beside her. "Mother, how long are you going to stay here? Get up." Sebastian sighed, taking her hand, inspecting it and released a loud sigh. 'Look at you, you are becoming weaker day by day." He released a ‘tch, tch, tch,' sound. Upon noticing his delighted tone, both Mr and Mrs Stellios looked at him with furrowed eyebrows and sheet confusion. Wondering what could cause him to be this ecstatic. "Exactly. If you are going to be this weak, Mrs Stellios, then how are you going to hold your grandchild?" I hummed, nodding in agreement, folding my arms. Blinking, they both turned to me, thinking they heard me wrong, "What…?" "Yes. We are going to have a little one at home. Can you imagine? I am going to be a Father!" Sebastian beamed, holding his Mother's hands, grinning for the first time after a painfully long time before them. When they saw Sebastian's happiness, they found their reason to gather themselves and move forward. "Really..?" Mr Stellios asked, Sebastian nodded with a grin. "Oh my, Oh my God…" Murmuring, Mrs Stellios held her heart by the thought of having a child at home after I guess an extremely long time. "So, you better make some health." Sebastian whispered, wrapping his arms around her, helping her to sit as he hugged her slowly. Rubbing her back to help her relax, embracing her which stunned her. "This has passed, Mother. Your condition would only hurt Ruben." He whispered, kissing her forehead, flashing such a heartwarming smile that I wanted to kiss him so badly to look this adorable. "I am here for you." He whispered, taking her head, soothing her. "Sebastian…?" Her eyes widened, not believing if this was true or not. Humming, he shifted closer and embraced her again, closing his eyes, "I have returned to your shades." I smiled sadly when I heard it. I wonder how many years and how badly she must have waited for it. Tears sprang in her eyes and she ended up crying, him back, kissing his head, his hands, his cheeks, holding him so badly to finally have him. 'Oh, my baby. My love.." Crying, she held him tightly, refusing to let him go now. 'Don't leave me ever again. I love you, I love you so much my boy." Whispering, she held him with pure love. The cheeriness and felicity revived in her resonance, hugging the boy who left her shade years ago. 'I won't. I am here, I won't leave you now." He hummed, residing peacefully in her arms, finding his way back home now. Smiling at the mother and son duo, I gained so much lull to find them together. She died for him every second and when he left, he never came and now when he was here, she didn't want him to leave. As they were together, I went down to drink some water and Mr Stellios came, smiling sorrowfully, "I don't know how to express my gratitude to you, Eileen. You did what no one else could. I am so thankful to you." 'I did nothing." I chuckled sheepishly. "I know I don't deserve his forgiveness but I pray you guys own all the happiness." He whispered, looking down. "Why don't you apologize..? And honestly, Sebastian never held any hatred towards you anyways. He believed you were protecting family." I spoke calmly. I was not lying. I was infuriated and repulsed at him but Sebastian's heart was pure towards his Father. He didn't have a single complaint with him. "Can I?" He asked expectantly. "Why not give it a shot? I gotta call my parents and let them know too." I suggested and went to call my parents to let them know we are coming and I have good news for them. When I entered the room after the call again, Sebastian was between his parents, they were having a family hug which made me laugh a little. Sebastian held his hand out to me. I had no place to fit but he made me sit on his lap for the family hug which made us all laugh. After having lunch at his parents place, we were off to mine where I could imagine Sofia screaming from delight. My one call and she spawned at my place. "We are going to my place now." I ordered when we left. "Do we truly have to?" He groaned. Frowning, I pinched his cheek harshly, causing him to wince loudly. "Did I stutter?" "No, Ma'am." Sighing, he pulled my hand away, rubbing his cheek causing me to smirk. "Good." We went to my place. Obviously everyone was overflowing with glee to hear the good news. The moment of pure delight was created. We found a new path in life, a new route towards my happiness where I would get lost and never return. I was touching my fairytale. The life I imagined when I said yes to marry him. Took a year but at least my wish became a reality. It was night and Sebastian came to me, I was laying on the couch in the lounge, "Let's go-" "I ain't going, mate. You go." Waving my hand, I shrugged him off. "What?" Blinking, he raised an eyebrow. "I am staying here until you make up for our anniversary. One year and almost a month but you did nothing." I whined, refusing to go with him. We didn't do anything because Ruben died a week before our anniversary. 'Okay, My heart refused to do anything in the moment of mourning too but he didn't do anything to make up for it either. I won't come until he makes up for it." I demanded, folding my arm. Everyone chuckled nervously as Sebastian frowned. 'If you won't come, I will throw you on my shoulder." He challenged. 'I dare you to do that." I smirked. He almost did it but then he realized it would put pressure on my stomach and since I was internally weak, I needed ‘extreme care'. He gasped, 'That's cheating." Giggling, I grabbed his collar, pecking his cheeks, 'Enjoy some freedom before I ensnare you forever." Winking, I laid down again, waving my hand again, "Attract me. Until then, bye, bye~" He paused, turning to everyone who was indulging in the moment and the authority I held. Oh, how the tables have turned. 'Good luck. I can give you a few tips." Sofia giggled, cheering Sebastian but it evoked a dark idea as he turned to me with a sinful smirk. 'You know what, Eileen?" Raising my eyebrows, I opened my mouth to speak but he abruptly moved his hand across my face and placed it on the headrest. 'You don't have to be vexed…" Leaning dangerously closer to my face, he slid his index finger under my chin, causing my heart to skip a beat. "I have stolen you from your Father once, watch how I will do it again." He declared seductively and openly, bringing a deep scarlet shade on my cheeks as he left, leaving at my parents place to think what he was going to do.
