Chapter 23: A woman! (2/2)


    Arent you afraid of being kicked silly?


    Raven didnt look at Mike in a good mood.


    Mikeughed.


    Ravens eyes twinkled and her long, slender leg rubbed lightly against Mikes ear.


    Mike froze, seemingly not expecting Raven to do that.


    Raven looked at Mike and rested her long, slender leg on Mikes shoulder while her body slowly leaned over.


    Just then


    Dad!


    rk sat up from the bed rubbing his eyes and looked at Mike with a surprised cry, then froze after seeing the two of them in the position of Mike and Raven.


    Mike and Raven looked embarrassed.


    rk suddenly closed his eyes and said out loud, Dad, where are you?


    When he fell down, the quilt was pulled up, and there was a snoring sound.


    Pfft!


    Raven couldnt help butugh, dropping her leg off Mike and muttering, Little boy!


    Mike took a step back, coughed softly and said, He didnt get you in trouble, did he?


    rk was obedient. Squinting down at Mike, she said, Much more obedient than you.


    Mike nodded and said, Its been a hard two days for you.


    Raven winked yfully, saw her facee up to Mike and said, How are you going to repay me?


    Didnt I rescue people for you?


    Raven red at Mike, grunted coldly, pushed Mike away from the door, and walked out with a big stride, closing the door with a bang.


    Mike showed a bitter smile.


    rk revealed a pair of eyes looking at Mike: Dad, why is Aunt Raven angry?


    Youll understand when youre older.


    Ugh, women!


    rk sighed and sat up from the bed.


    Ha ha! Mikeughed as he walked towards rk and sat on the bed, reaching up and flicking his head, What do you know?


    rk spat out his tongue, hugged Mike, yawned, and said, Ill tell you what, Aunt Raven took me to the amusement park today, and she and I


    rk spoke of the days events, but his voice was getting smaller and smaller


    Mike smiled faintly, put the little one on the bed, put the covers on and walked into the bathroom.


    The next day was clear and sunny, another beautiful day.


    Mike finished washing up, squeezed the toothpaste for rk, turned around to see the little guy still holding the quilt, drooling and sleeping, coughed gently and said, Ehhh, red meat.


    Red meat! Over there?


    rk snapped open his eyes, shouted, and jumped straight up.


    Ha ha!


    rk looked at Mike slyly and said, Dad! You lied to me again!


    Patting rks head, Mike said, Get up, wash up, eat breakfast, and well go.


    Go? rk cocked his head and rubbed his eyes, Are we going home?


    Mike answered.


    But hasnt our home been blown up?


    Mike pulled rk out of the covers and said, Were going back to New York.


    Oh  A still confused rk stared at Mike, surprised, New York?


    Yes, back to New York.


    But Dad, didnt you say you were going home?


    Theres a home for Dad in New York, too. Mike reached out and pointed to the bathroom, saying, Go! Or youll miss your flight.


    Oh yeah!


    rk cheered and trotted off to the bathroom.
