29 Knowing You More... (1/2)
Anna picks up Stacy in her arms and starts feeding her with her meals which Lara has packed for her. Xian sits on the opposite side of the dinning table and silently watch both of them. He was picturing Anna with his kid in future and giggles softly while imagining the scene. He picks his phone and clicks couple of photos of Anna feeding Stacy while making all childish faces to the her. This is the first time Xian was seeing Anna's this side. Anna turns towards Xian making him off his camera and jump on his seat to hide what he was doing. Anna lifts his face to question him about his sudden jump and he just smiles back signalling her with her hand about nothing. Anna smiles back at him and turns towards Stacey.
”You like Barbie a lot right, aunt Anna will give you a new big Barbie. But for that our little princess should complete her yummy snacks” Anna speaks in kiddish language making Xian to laugh to death.
She turns to him making an angry face ”Can you please stop laughing, you have to feed the kids in the ways possible. If you are so good at it then try by your own. You will come to know the struggle when you have yours”
”I would love to feed our kids” Xian replies instantly making Anna to freeze for a moment.
”What did you say” Anna turns back to Xian to clarify with him again about his words earlier.
”No nothing, I was just saying I will wait for that day” Xian twist his words after realizing Anna's mood change to which Anna rolls her eyes and switch back to Stacy.
After feeding Stacy, she asks Xian to clean up the dinning table and wash Stacy's box while she picks the kid and walks towards the sink to clean her face and hands.
Stacy was full and starts rubbing her eyes. ”I think she is sleepy, let me hold her and make her sleep” Xian takes her in his arms before Anna could speak up.
”You need to make her burp, don't let her sleep else she will vomit”
”What?” Xian screams in shock ”How am I suppose to make her burp, do kids burp?” Xian makes an innocent face while staring at Stacy who just laughs at Xian.
”Give her back to me, let me show you” Anna takes her back and starts rubbing and patting her back slowly to help her burp and after some pats she finally release a small burp ”Good girl, now it's your nap time. Come let's change your diaper and get you to the bed” Anna starts walking in her room throwing Stacy's bag at Xian to carry it and follow her towards the room.
”When did you learn all these” Xian stands at the edge of the bed watching Anna cleaning Stacy's little bum and then wrapping the new diaper around it nicely.
”Watch her for a minute, let me throw this in the dustbin and come back” Anna picks up the waste tissues and used diaper and walks towards outside of the room. She comes back after throwing the stuff and washing her hands back to the room. ”Now let's make you sleep” Anna jumps on the bed and places Stacy in the middle of the bed before lying next to her. Stacy turns towards her the moment she hears similar music coming from Anna's side. Anna starts singing Stacy's favorite song while patting her slowly on her forehead. It was only few minutes when Stacy dozes off to sleep. Xian was standing at the bed edge the whole time staring at Anna and Stacy. Anna gets up from the bed after hearing soft snoring from Stacy's side. She placed all the pillows surrounding Stacy to make her safe from falling off the bed. Anna closes the window shields to darken the room for Stacy and walks out holding Xian's hand.
