Devoted Love, Mr. Hayes’ Darling Wife

It was after 21:00 and almost 22:00 when Nico drove from the group to the Bayside.

Micaela, with the usual old man routine, was about to go to bed when she received a call from Nico.

On the phone, the man said tersely and directly, “I’m downstairs at your house.”

Micaela, slightly dazed, walks over to the window with her phone in her hand and looks down. Sure enough, there is a silver and gray sports car with a familiar figure standing next to it.

Micaela looks out the window to talk to him on the phone and asks, “What do you want from me this late?”

“Micaela, you come downstairs.”

“I’m going to bed, the pajamas are changed.” Micaela wasn’t lying.

Nico held the phone to his ear with one hand as he looked down, lifting a long leg and nonchalantly kicking a small stone at his feet. “I’ve driven all this way and you haven’t seen me?”.

“Wait a minute then.”

Micaela hung up the phone and went to change her clothes.

It was so cold and dewy outside that a down jacket had to be worn down there.

Ten minutes later, Micaela comes out of the building wrapped in a long down jacket.

Nico watched her from a distance with one hand in his pocket, his forehead warm and slightly smiling, his black eyes, like shooting stars, sparkled and smoldered as he looked at her.

Micaela walked over and said, “It’s so late, have you had a busy day and you’re not going home to sleep and you’re staying here car model?”

Nico kicked his shoes a little and said lazily, “I was tired after a long day at work, but I’m not tired after seeing you. I have an illness that needs to be treated by you.”

“What?”

“Now I want to see you every day, I have no energy if I don’t see you, I can’t do anything.”

Suddenly, Nico took a step closer to her, his tall, erect body enveloped her, “Of course, if you give him another hug, it will be a more complete cure.”

The man’s strong, slender arms had embraced her.

Through the thick comforter, Micaela could hear the strong beating of his heart.

With a simple embrace like this, even without more intimate actions, Nico was content with the warmth that was about to pour out of her heart.

Held for who knows how long.

Nico didn’t want to let go of her hand at all, rested his chin on her forehead and solemnly promised, word for word: “Micaela, there is no repetition between us, nor can there be, even if this time you play me to death, I won’t let go of you. If I had known you were still alive, I would have come to you even sooner. Separating from life is even harder than separating from death.”

Micaela took a deep breath, exhaled a deep puff of white air and slowly looked up at him with a faint smile, “Between us, there’s a lot of time ahead.”

Nico shivered and hugged her tighter, the corners of his lips turned up.

Yes, what’s there to fear when the future is long.

Micaela set the alarm on her phone to go to bed at eleven and the alarm went off.

Micaela said, “I’m going up to bed.”

Nico let go of her and stood by the car watching her turn and walk a few steps away, then suddenly took a big step forward and drew her back into his arms, hugging her again, from behind, Nico’s face, cold from the icy wind, pressed against hers and said in a muted, warm voice, “Micaela, now I know that as long as you’re in my arms, all the twists and turns, it’s all worth it. ”

Micaela was silent for a moment and teased, “I really need to come up, unlike you, I can stay up all night and still be fresh the next day.”

Nico let go of her and said, “Come on in, I’ll see you in before I leave.”

The man was standing by the car in a black coat, his posture was clear and his eyebrows starry.

On this night, Nico felt like he was living a decade ago, full of adolescent love and confidence.

“Micaela.”

He called out to her again.

Micaela lost her smile and turned her eyes to look at him, “How else am I going to come upstairs if you’re like this?”

It’s almost like taking a step backwards.

Nico kicked a stone at his feet and said to Micaela with some cynicism, “Nothing, I was wondering when you were coming home to sleep with me.”

Can re, lying on a tab with him.

Micaela just curved her lips and eyebrows without speaking and waved her hand at him, “Go away, good night.”

…

The next day, at noon, Micaela headed for lunch at The Villas at Repulse Bay in Adam.

Just as I got out of the car, I saw Estrella with the children watering the flowers and grass in the yard.

Micaela has only met Paulita, the other carrot dingus she hasn’t seen.

“Estrella! Aunt Micaela is here!”

Paulita ran up excitedly, looking at Micaela’s beautiful face with wide eyes and a look of fascination.

Paulita has grown quite a bit in the last three years since I’ve seen her.

Micaela reached out and stroked the little girl’s head, saying softly, “Paulita has grown so much and is so beautiful that Tia Micaela hardly recognizes her.”© NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

Estrella approached with three-year-old Lucio and said with a smile, “She’s jumping, and look at those little legs, she may be a long-legged beauty later on.”

“It’s been a long time, Estrella, and I didn’t know you and Adam had had a second child.”

Estrella said, “Yes, the last time we saw each other was three years ago, but now that you’re back, we can get together more often. Come on, let’s talk inside, it’s warm inside.”

When we walked in, the children were sitting on a thick blanket next to the sofa playing.

Estrella has prepared a pot of flowers and is chatting with Micaela about it.

Paulita and Lucio were putting Lego together and when they got to a difficult place, they couldn’t put it together for ages, Paulita pulled the Lego closer and asked the adults, “Estrella, help me put it together here, my brother is a troublemaker, he’s messing up everything I’ve put together!”

Estrella is not very good at Lego either, it is usually Adam who takes the two children to play with them, and Estrella was puzzled for a while and couldn’t get them put together.

“Let’s see.”

Micaela checked the original piece and patiently explained to Paulita, “Paulita, look, this step you put it backwards, the colors don’t match the drawing, so you can’t put anything together either, take this apart and put it back together as it was in the drawing and you can put this together.”

Paulita slapped her forehead with her little hand, disgruntled, “Why didn’t I realize that, I’m going to spell it out again.”

Paulita held up the Lego, took apart the previous step and flexibly reassembled it.

Estrella smiled and said, “I’m not good at playing with these more spacey things, it’s usually Adam who takes the kids. Seeing as you get along so well with Paulita, if you and Nico have children in the future, I’m sure you’ll get along well with the kids.”

At the mention of the baby, Micaela made a puzzled face and didn’t answer, just took a sip of her tea and said, “Anyway, it’s good to have Adam around, you don’t need to know anything, Adam will do everything for you.”

After a few moments of climbing and exchanging pleasantries, Adam came down from his study upstairs, dressed in a white shirt and black pants, as clean and smart as can be.

“Micaela is here.”

Estrella said, “I didn’t call you when Micaela arrived, as you were busy with work. ”

Micaela gets up and greets Adam with a smile.
