Chapter 41
A month passed by since he and his wife talked, Jewel also decided to live with Thunder in their old house together with their son, at first Storm didn’t want to go but in the long run his mother forced him too, because this is the only way Jewel thought for his son and Thunder to be close to each other, in the following days everything was not easy for Thunder.
When he tries to talk to his son, he can’t get any answer from him, when he invites him to play his son does not want to, when he cooks Storm does not even pay attention to it. It was hard and painful for him as a father but he doesn’t have any choice, he needs to do it for his son.
Sometimes Thunder feels like there is no chance that his son will accept him. He feels unwanted and useless but he thinks that he can’t give up, he can’t just give up the family he hopes for. He just thinks that it still lacks compensation for everything he has done to his wife.
Jewel is not here now because she went with Kevin to take care of what happened at their house last week and also because of her parents’ fears so they agreed to let them stay with Thunder for their safety too.
He also chose to leave work for how many days to spend time for his family and because he wanted to focus on his son, he wanted to make up for everything. He knows that it will be hard for him to do it but he is determined to fix his family. He doesn’t want to get to the point where he would regret doing nothing for his family. He doesn’t want Jewel and his son to run away again.
After a few minutes Jewel arrives and now they are going to Dark’s house because Calleigh said that she misses Jewel and she also wants to see Storm, she will give birth in a few months so she has to be more careful.
After they got ready, they left immediately so that the traffic wouldn’t catch up with them. Jewel also knew what was going on between her son and her husband, but Thunder told her not to worry because it’s okay with him.
They also traveled for about 30 minutes before reaching the subdivision where Dark lives. They immediately went down and rang the doorbell at the gate. They were just outside when they heard Calleigh’s voice.
One of the maids quickly opened the gate.
“You’re too loud Cali, be ashamed of your neighbors.” Jewel teased her friend as soon as they entered.
“What’s so loud about that? I am not shouting,” she said and glared at her friend
Thunder sat next to Dark. “Good that you’re enduring her evilness bro? You know you still have time to think and change your mind and leave Cali.” Thunder said and looked at Cali
Cali stood up glaring at him. “You know, Thunder I am happy that you and my bestfriend are back again, but the shape of your tongue still doesn’t improve. I hope the food you eat is delicious, right?”
The three of them laughed because of what Calli said that she was even more annoyed.
“Can you just shut up tita Calli? You’re too noisy, maybe after a few months the baby won’t come out because he’s scared of your voice.” Storm groaned
“You know baby Storm you shouldn’t go near your father, because you’re infected with him.” Cali said to the child
“Why? He is my father, so it’s okay if we have some similarities,” Storm defended.
The four of them looked at each other because of what the boy said. Unbeknownst to them, Storm did not treat his father well so it was surprising that he seemed to be defending him.
“Are you and your daddy okay now?” Calli asked in shock
“I didn’t say that thing tita, don’t be stupid! I only say that he is my father that’s why there is nothing wrong if we have resemblance especially in behavior,” he explained and turned to Dark. “Tito D are you sure you want to marry tita Calli? You need to think twice,” he asked Dark who couldn’t stop himself from laughing .
Calleigh just sat down. “You know next time don’t make a child that smart like this, huh? You don’t He don’t want to lost in a debate,” she complained
Their house was almost filled with laughter.
“By the way, Cain still hasn’t shown up in weeks.” Dark said out of nowhere.
“I talked to him yesterday and he said he was just fixing something with the company so he was busy,” Thunder replied
And since it was going to be lunch, they decided to have lunch at Dark’s pool area because Storm wanted to swim so they just gave it a go and they also went swimming.
Thunder and Dark were busy drinking, while Calleigh and Jewel were together in the pool and dipped their feet while watching Storm who was enjoying himself. “Your song Mercyl is really handsome and smart, he really inherited it from Thunder,” Calli said
Jewel raised an eyebrow at what her friend said. “What do you want to say now? That I am ugly and not smart, huh?”
Cali laughed. “Look at your face, it’s priceless. Are you pregnant?” She jokingly said
Jewel quickly pulled her friend’s hair. “Shut up, my son is there, he can hear what you are saying.”
“I’m just asking, there’s nothing wrong with that best! Duh, you’ve been together for a month now, it’s impossible that nothing will happen to both of you. You’ve been separated for a few years.” She is teasing Jewel
“You know you’re so malicious, what now if we’ve been together for a month? It’s not required to have that thing. We are not like you and Dark that are still doing it even if you will give birth in a few months from now.
“Of Course that’s what exercise is.” Calli said
“Whatever you say,” Jewel began to swim towards her son and left her friend who was still laughing.
Thunder stared at his wife and son.
“Don’t stare too much.” Dark said
“Stupid! Mind your own business.”
“Jewel is really a brave woman to forgive you for everything bad you’ve done against her. It’s proof that she’s really kind even if you haven’t been kind to her.”
Thunder quickly drank the beer from the glass he was holding. “I’ve been thinking about that for a long time, since we got along. I’m thinking that she’ll not be able to give me another chance to accept me back into her life with our son, but as we talked before, she told me that she still doesn’t forgive me completely and I understand that, but I’m still happy to see if there is still a chance to fix my family.” Thunder positively said
“We know that it wasn’t easy for her, I can’t quite imagine how Jewel survived all that, so you better fix it as soon as possible, make up with your wife first. Don’t make the same mistake that you made before.” Dark seriously said
“I am happy and content with my family now so there is no reason for me to do what I did in the past.”
“Call Cain and tell them to go here.” he commanded
“I did before we went here but he is not answering.”Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
“It looks like Cain and Monique also have a problem, last time when Calli and I were in the mall we saw her son. I even asked him where Cain was but she just said hi in the meeting,” Dark exclaimed.
“You know what bro, I have a weird feelings about Monique,” he added
Thunder immediately looked at him. “W-what? Do you like Monique?”
“Stupid! What are you talking about? What I mean is she’s kind but I have this feeling that we don’t really know her yet, she seems to be hiding something.” Dark explained
“What do you mean?”
“I don’t know, I can’t explain either. I just really feel different. One time I saw her, she was talking to someone on her phone like they were arguing,” he said.
“Maybe it’s just her friend. Let’s just support Cain and I think Monique really loves our friend. Maybe we haven’t been with her for a long time so that’s what you have in mind.”
Dark nodded at what his friend said, maybe it’s true because they haven’t been together for a long time so this is what he says.
Later, they got up together and went to the pool to swim with their loved ones.
It also took them almost a few hours before they finished swimming, they immediately went inside when it was getting dark, they just let the women bond first and the two of them prepared their dinner.
