20 Bad At Flirting. (2/2)

”Hey champ, I think the word of 'Uncle' is a bit….too old for me. How about you call me with other name?” he asked him.

Aslan tilt his head and rub his chin ”Hm?”

”How about father?” he suggesting.

”Can I call you papa?” he said with a sparkled in his eyes.

”Sure. It's sound lovely.” he smile and stand up again.

He then bring him to the swing and help him to sit. Slowly he push the swing.

….

Hazel arrive at home 5 minutes after she drop off them at the park. She went to the lab and start her work.

After 30 minutes doing her work, she suddenly feel lonely. There is no sound of cartoon that Aslan always watch at this time. No laughing sound from Alan and Aslan who is enjoying their time playing together at the hall.

She look at the clock. It's already 5:30 PM.

Groaning, she take the remote key and drive to the park back.

”Why…Why did you have to be his son, Aslan?” she mumble while driving.

….

After arriving at the park, she lean against the car door and looked at Alan who is happily playing with him.

'Why you come to my life?' she said inwardly. Without her noticed, her face turned soft while looking at the two of them from afar.

It was like she was looking at the father and son who enjoyed their bonding time.

Not long after, Alan turn his eyes to the road and saw her figure from afar. He smile.

'I knew you still have some soft spot inside.' he said inside his heart.

Looking at Aslan, he said. ”As..let's go.. we come again next time okay?” he stretched his hand and hold his small hand.

Walking together, he ask again. ”Did you enjoy your time?”

”Uhn!” he nod and smile widely.

”Glad you're happy.” he smile and divert his eyes to Hazel.

”You coming back.” he said.

”I was worried. After all, I don't know if you're a bad guy or not.” she said casually.

”Hm? I'm happy Ms. Hazel here didn't forget about her son.” he smile.

”Whatever! Get in.” she open her car door and step inside it.

…

It was late at night when she arrived at her apartment. Tired, she walk insideand took a shower. Just when she want to go to sleep, suddenly there is a knock on her door.

Lazily, she walk to the door and open it. She was totally dumbfounded when she look at the man standing in front of her apartment in night time.

”Hi, I am your new neighbor.” he said and handed her a box of gift.

”What are you doing here?” she ask and look around him.

”I just said that I am your new neighbor.” he said again.

'Well, maybe I was mistaken him for someone else?' she thought and reply to him.

”Okay. Nice to meet you neighbor.” she smile and closed back the door.

She then put the gift box at the kitchen counter top and she went back to her room.

Chase who was standing outside her door smiling to see her reaction.

'Jeez Chase.. you really bad at flirting!' he shake his head and went back to his new apartment that he rent for the whole year.
