Chapter 753: THANK YOU, UNCLE
“Mommy is sick?” Mika asked sadly and this made Kia stare fiercely at Misha at the comment he made earlier.
This man was always talking nonsense. “No, Mommy’s not sick. Mommy’s fine,” Kia said, trying to calm Mika down, but it didn’t seem to work because the little girl was looking at her with eyes filled with tears. Ugh.
Meanwhile, Misha didn’t think that what he was doing now was a mistake, he saw this as an opportunity.
And for a businessman like Misha, of course he wouldn’t miss any opportunity. Especially about the things that benefit him.
“You’d better stay here for the night,” Misha suggested. “It’s too late for you to go back to the apartment and Mika also has to sleep at this hour, right?”
All the explanations and reasons that Misha said were very reasonable. It would be absurd if Kia insisted on going back to her apartment and also if she wanted to take a taxi home from here, it could be said that she could forget about eating for the next week. It’s too expensive!
Damn it! Kia cursed, she had let her guard down…
During the trip, Kia’s head was a little dizzy and because of the comfort she felt, she only planned to close her eyes for a while, because of the unbearable fatigue, but who would have thought that she would fall asleep in the end. Ugh.
If only she had realized sooner that Misha never changed and had become more vigilant instead, she wouldn’t be in this kind of situation.
“I don’t have a change of clothes here.” Kia was still trying to come up with an excuse that sounded plausible, so she wouldn’t have to spend the night here, but it didn’t seem like a problem for Misha.
“You don’t have to worry about clothes, you can wear mine if you want,” said Misha, who then got out of the car and opened the door for Kia and Mika.
Meanwhile, hearing what Misha suggested, Kia threw a fierce glare at the man, how could he suggest such an unreasonable thing?
“Whoa! This house is huge. Uncle lives in this place?” Mika asked and this made Misha wince when he heard how this little girl addressed himself.
He wanted to ask her to stop calling him uncle, but didn’t know how. Therefore, for the time being, he just let it go, but only until he had a proper conversation with Kia.
“Yes, this is where I live,” Misha replied while holding Mika’s hand, but the little girl ran to Kia and took her mother’s hand instead when she got out of the car.
Seeing this, Misha could only sigh softly, Dania told him that he had to be patient in dealing with Mika and Kia, because they were both hurt by his actions.
Misha then walked first with Kia and Mika walking behind him. The little girl looked as if she was in awe and looked around her with curious eyes and this made Misha feel something caught in his throat.
His own daughter was amazed to be in his home…
It had never occurred to Misha that a day like this would come, but he had also never thought of getting married before, let alone having a child.
“I’ll take you to your room,” Misha said to Kia and Mika. He had called in advance to tell the maids at his house to prepare the children’s room that had been renovated and this was the perfect time to show it off.
The room that Misha had prepared for Mika was located right in front of his room with a view of the pool and had good lighting in the morning, but at night you could hear the sound of water gurgling from the artificial waterfall beside the pool and that was a great thing. It was quite therapeutic to say the least.
“This is your room,” Misha said. He then pushed the pink door open with a worried face, impatient to see Mika’s first reaction.
And it turned out that the wait didn’t disappoint, because just like a three year old would, Mika’s eyes widened playfully when she saw the piles of toys lining the walls and a large cartoon bed. She liked it.
Thanks to Richard, after an in-depth investigation that took quite a lot of time, he finally managed to find out what cartoons Mika liked and also her favorite colors, which they got from the daycare where Mika usually went to.
“Whoa! So many toys!” Mika exclaimed happily, she then immediately ran into the room.
“Mika,” Kia called her warningly, but Misha held her hand when she was about to stop Mika from approaching the new toys.
“Leave her alone,” said Misha. “I did buy them for her, so there’s no need to stop.”
Kia wanted to protest, but Mika seemed to be enjoying this and she didn’t have the heart to take this from her. She had to admit that she rarely bought her the toys she wanted due to financial constraints.
But, that didn’t mean she would let Mika act as he pleased. There were still limits that Kia had to teach her child.
“Mika,” Kia called again, this time she pushed Misha’s hand away and walked over to her daughter.
Mika who heard her name being called again then turned and looked at her mother, and as if realizing what she had done wrong, she then walked back to her mother shyly.
This of course made Misha frown. He didn’t mind at all for Mika to play with all the toys in this room, because that was his goal and indeed all the toys were bought for her, so it was only natural for her to enjoy this.
“Mommy,” said Mika sheepishly. She then glanced at the toys in the room again but then she returned her focus to Kia.
“All the toys in this room are for you,” Misha said, emphasizing his words, but Mika didn’t listen to him and moved even closer to her mother.
On the other hand, Kia could see how frustrated Misha was and how much he wanted Mika to enjoy playing with these toys, so she tried to be wiser in dealing with this problem.
“You can choose just one, but not all,” said Kia.
“Just one?” Mika repeated with a hopeful face and a smile tugged at her lips when she saw Kia nod in agreement.
“She can have them all,” Misha mumbled as Mika ran over to look at all the toys there, looking for the one she liked the best.
Only, all of his protests were stuck in his lips when he saw Kia glaring at him fiercely. Well, at least it was progress, with Kia allowing Mika to get gifts from him, right?
As for Kia, it was not without reason that she limited Mika to just taking one toy. She didn’t want her daughter to be surprised by the changes that had occurred and thought that she could get things easily when she was with Misha. It would turn her into a spoiled and entitled child.
And one more thing that was more important was; Kia would never be able to afford toys like the ones Misha bought and she didn’t want Mika to be swayed by his wealth.
It may sound selfish, but Kia had no intention of having a long relationship with Misha. If she could, she would have gone far from here.
Unfortunately, people like her who had limited money would end up living a life full of limited options as well.
“Here, mommy, Mika wants this!” Mika then lifted a brown teddy bear almost as big as her. She grabbed the doll’s hand and dragged it to Kia as Misha stood up. “Mika wants this.”
“Ask him if you can have the doll,” Kia said, she was teaching Mika to ask permission first.
Mika then turned her gaze to Misha and with her big and hopeful eyes, she asked, “May I have this? Mika likes bears.”
With a gaze like that, who could resist it?
“Hmm.” Misha nodded and he was quite surprised when he saw a very wide smile full of innocence bloom on Mika’s lips. Her eyes even glowed and radiated happiness.
So it was like this when someone’s eyes radiated happiness… Misha only now understood that such words had a point as well.
He wanted to see more, to see her sweet smile…
“So? What do you have to say next?” Kia asked, as Mika hugged her teddy bear affectionately.
“Thank you, uncle,” said Mika in a very cute voice.
On the other hand, Misha didn’t seem to pay much attention to how Mika addressed him this time, as the words he spoke next took them both by surprise.
“Do you want a real bear too?” Misha asked. He thought, since Mika liked bears, maybe a real bear could make her even happier.
Because Mika’s laugh and smile were a beautiful thing to see for Misha, he wanted to see more.
However, his question made Mika’s smile disappear and she frowned.
“But bears are dangerous,” said Mika in a low voice, hugging her teddy bear. “Mika is scared.”
Misha grimaced, because it seemed that he had the wrong strategy. “Oh, okay.”
Kia, who saw this, couldn’t help but sigh heavily. It seemed that Misha didn’t even realize what he was offering to a three year old.
He was completely clueless as to how to give a proper respond.
