Chapter 151: Pinky Promise (2/2)

Before Calvin could even fully open the door, Cecilia had already rushed into his bosom.

”Cecilia!” Calvin broke out into a grin.

He carried the little girl and placed her onto his shoulder. Then, as he walked towards the kitchen where the clanging of utensils and kitchen apparatus were coming from. He was greeted by Charlotte who had a sweet smile on her face as she said.

”Welcome back... It's good to see that you are back again.”

”Daddy, did you manage to secure the goods for the coffee shop? Mommy told me that you are going to bring me some cheesecake and berries when you return. Did you bring some for me?”

”Cheesecake and berries? What did your mommy tell you about where I went?”

”Huh? Mommy told me that you were with the sailors into the ocean!”

”And what do sailors do on the ocean?”

”Uhmm... get cheesecake and berries?”

”Pffft!” Calvin almost spat out a mouthful of saliva from what Cecilia had said.

Charlotte came running over embarrassed as she took her daughter from Calvin's shoulder and said, ”I'm sorry, Calvin... Cecilia doesn't really know where fish comes from. She knows about lakes and rivers, but she has no idea that the ocean also has fishes living in it...” The crimson colour on her cheeks made her look incredibly tantalizing in the eyes.

'Damn, I have such a beautiful wife, yet I can't remember having touched her before... I must be the reincarnation of the buddha with this self-restraint of mine!' Calvin couldn't help but inwardly comment.

But when he noticed that Cecilia looked so confused. He explained, ”Cheesecakes and berries do not come from the ocean, Cecilia. But don't worry, once your birthday comes. I'll be getting you a big cheesecake! It will be so big that you will get tired of eating it!” Calvin proudly declared and the young lass exploded into peals of laughter in excitement.

”Yaaay! Daddy will get me cheesecake and berries for my birthday! Can you do a pinky promise with me, daddy?”

”Yes, we will do a pinky promise!” Calvin stretched his hand out and the young lass sang.

”Pinky promise, pinky promise, violate this and you'll get stitches!”

”Pfft! What kind of a pinky promise song is that, Cecilia?” Calvin almost busted his guts once more.

”Eh? I heard this from Lea! She told me her father sang this to her when he promised that he will be getting her a doll for her birthday!”

”Ah, Lea... Is that your playmate from the Northern Borough!”

”Mhmm! She's my best friend!” Cecilia repeatedly nodded her head.

”All right, since you told me that your friend will be getting a doll for her birthday, then I will also give you a doll so that both of you can play with each other's doll!” Calvin smiled at the young lass.

”Yaaay! Daddy, you're the best!” Cecilia almost leapt out of Charlotte's grasp as she reached out for Calvin's neck.

Charlotte's smile sweetened even further as she chuckled and said, ”Let me carry those bags for you to the kitchen. I've cooked some meal for the three of us. I'll go and tend to them now since I wouldn't want them to burn.”

”Oh? You also cooked a portion for me?”

Charlotte suddenly stopped on her tracks.

She slightly turned her head to look at Calvin and smiled, ”Even when you were gone, I've always cooked as if you were here with us.”

Then, without even waiting for Calvin's reply. She walked over to the kitchen and continued her cooking.

Calvin placed Cecilia down onto the floor and said, ”Go to your mommy for now. Daddy will change her clothes and join you two for dinner.”

Cecilia nodded her head and obeyed without any fuss and she ran over to her mommy to brag about the promise that she made with her daddy.

It was at this moment that the sweat forming on Calvin's forehead since he came into this room finally fell down his cheeks.

'There is something wrong...'

'Why did I say that I'll buy Cecilia cheesecakes and berries for her birthday when I...'

'Don't even know when is her birthday...?'
