WIDOW IN MY BED

“Okay, which one does Lily like?”

The two-and-a-half-year-old girl stared at two different examples of wallpapers held by Amanda in both hands. Then her body moves small, asking him to get off Matt’s back so she can stand on the floor.

“Uh… Lily’s confused, Mommy. Everything in this store is nice.” Lily sparkled happily.

“Or do you want anything else?” Amanda took another example and smiled sweetly.

“Choose whichever one Lily likes. Here’s to your room later.” Lily supports her chin, and her tiny little lips are conical. Then, steadily, she stretches out, pointing not to one of Amanda’s choice of wallpaper samples but to her Mommy and Daddy.

Amanda immediately laughs and hugs Lily tightly, smearing her little girl’s cheeks while Matt sneaks into his misunderstanding.

“Why?” Matt asked perplexedly.

“Lily pointed to us when I said, ‘Choose whichever you like’. I mean-”

“Lily likes us?” Matt made sure.

“Smart!” Amanda nodded, still hugging her daughter tightly.

While Matt was laughing slowly, he felt a warm feeling that was not explained by his logic. Like surreal. If you remember the past and the history they have written in each other’s lives, this warm feeling seems like a miracle that is too beautiful to be realized.

Matt then squatted down, equating himself with his daughter, to ask, “Which is Lily as pretty as a jasmine flower, so which one do you want to choose?”

The little girl’s heart was soaring into the sky because her father praised her as ‘beautiful’. But…

“Why Jasmine Daddy? Isn’t my name Lily?”

Matt poked the little puffy cheek before answering, “Because you’re white, small and smelling like jasmine, my little princess.”

“Oh, my God! Lily’s heart is not okay! Daddy Matt, please don’t talk about Lily; Mommy Amanda will be jealous!” Matt held back his laugh, a little touchy about what his little girl said.

“Let Mommy be jealous so Mommy won’t make Lily a delicious dessert. Haha!” Amanda shook her head at her husband’s behaviour, which was far from that of a grown man.

“Oh, no! I don’t want to. Lily doesn’t like Daddy!” cried the girl, her lips watering lightly. Then, pull up Amanda’s clothes. “Mommy, Mommy… dessert for me there, right?”

“There’s my little girl, don’t worry,” Amanda’s hand immediately caught Lily’s cheek. “Daddy Matt was deliberately flirting with you. If Lily’s dessert isn’t there, Daddy’s will eat it. Later, let Daddy not get dessert. Okay?”

“Is that so?” protested Matt, looking shocked.

“Because Mommy Amanda loves Lily. Wleee~” Lily sticks out her tongue, taunting her father, and speaks childishly.

“Oh, my gosh, I beg your pardon, princess. But Mommy Amanda is mine, the wife of the handsome Daddy Matt. Wleee~” Matt returned to sticking out his tongue and taunting his little girl.

It’s Lily’s turn to put on a concrete face and, “HUWEEEEE! Mommy… Daddy’s evil! Mommy’s just Lily’s! Lily doesn’t like it!”

“Who told Daddy to fight? Daddy doesn’t like-”

“HUWEEEEEEEEEE MOMMY!!!” Lily cries and screams, upset because of her father.

“Oh, my God, Mr. Wallace! Can’t you just give up on your daughter for a second? See now Lily’s crying, right? Don’t like the teasing of her child. ” Amanda was dizzy from the father-daughter fight. Trying to calm Lily down with tears in her eyes. Shame on the store clerk.

This is the first time Matthew Wallace is competing with a child. It is also the first time the man is reluctant to give up, even though Lily is not a rival but her child.

As a result, Matt tried to give in because it seemed like Amanda was really upset, and Lily’s unrelenting tears made her get a keen look at her beloved wife. Matt looks like a dog bending his ears in front of Amanda.

It’s strange that Matt has always wanted to be number one since marrying Amanda. Even after adopting Lily, Amanda and Matt have agreed to prioritize the child before personal interests. However, suppose the context is Mommy’s dearest Amanda’s fight for the mob boss. In that case, being more possessive and competitive than usual is not wrong.

And how does Matt know that his childishness ignites Lily’s emotions and immediately burst into tears? With a sullen face, her tiny hands clasped Amanda’s neck tight. The grown man breathed a sigh of resignation. Have to position as a loser by a landslide.

Amanda also took back the wallpaper samples of Princess Elsa and Belle after Lily calmed down. “So, which one do you want, my dear?”

Lily seemed hesitant for a second. Then she timidly pointed to a sample of Spray, a zombie dog character from the gothic-style horror animated film Frankenweenie. The little one raised her eyebrows, looking at her parents as if half expected her to refuse or offer her another.

Tell me, which little girl likes horror and ghosts if it’s not Lily Aileen Wallace?

“You want this one? Okay, why not?” Matt said. “How’s Lily’s Mommy?”

Amanda returns the wallpaper that she holds of the princesses Elsa and Belle.

“Mommy’s a yes. It’s good.”

Lily flickered when she saw Amanda’s hand gesture pointing at the wallpaper she wanted. “May I, Mom, Dad?”

“Of course you can, baby,” Amanda said, stroking the black hair of a loving little girl.

“Very good. Or would Daddy like to buy you a store?” Matt continued. This makes Amanda kneel rather hard. How can her husband teach their children to be extravagant from childhood?

The tip of the girl’s lips is raised. It’s confusing to pick out the word, “But it’s a dive. It’s not feminine, and Lily’s a girl. Is it still okay?”

“But Lily likes it?” asked Matt.

“LIKE!” cried the little girl as she stretched her arms.Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

“So what if it’s scary and it’s not feminine?” Matt asked like it didn’t matter.

“Hey, Daddy’s daughter. When did you choose wallpaper for gender? You can like anything, decorate your room with anything, and it won’t change the fact that you’re a girl.” Matt thought for a moment, considering the sentence.

“And even if, someday, you don’t want to be called a woman, there’s no problem either. You’ll still be Mommy and Daddy’s favourite.”

“No, Daddy. Lily had to be a woman because she wanted to see the prince. Daddy is Lily’s favourite king. There should be a princess when there’s a king and a queen!” The little girl held the grown man’s legs tight. Fat Matt held the girl in his arms and kissed her cheek.

Lily’s simple words, like a spell, set Matt’s heart on fire. He should have known that the princess loved him so much, but because his feelings for Amanda were always burning hot, his reflexes made his child cry.

Still smiling, Lily infects Matt and Amanda, who immediately stroke the loving little girl’s black hair.
