Chapter 47: Then Papa?
After Darren finished with the discussion, Ria asked him to have breakfast with them as they were plenty enough for him. Darren gladly accepted it and enjoyed some good time. Then both Ren and Ria became busy with their own work.
Ria discussed with Nash and Darren about the script for the commercial. When she asked Ren he said, "Anything you do is fine for me, Anna". So she started to put more effort to satisfy his romantic devil. In between she spent some time with the kids.
They went to Raj Mansion for lunch. The Kozhaksi family were also present, they discussed about the marriage arrangements which is to be held in two weeks time. Lucy and Ruth was responsible for the decorations. The parents went with the guest list. Nash and Darren were responsible for other arrangements.
Ren took the incharge of deciding the place and invitation. Ria decided to go with what she knows best, the dresses. Two weeks is very less time considering her busy schedule with autumn fashions on process and a commercial.
She ordered traditional handmade outfits from K district which is famous in I country for the wedding ceremony. She is designing for their reception and other functions. Then she said about her leaving to Milan tonight. Both side parents were understanding but the marshmallows face fell when they found out they are staying.
Ria noticed them and looked at Ren who gave her a reassuring smile. After lunch, Ria bid farewell to everyone for the trip. The family of four left in a car. Ren was driving and Ria was sitting in next to him with the little marshmallows on her lap.
She had around 4 hours for the flight, she was supposed to meet Peggy in 2 hours at the office.
The little ones were silent most of the times not disturbing others but now they were extremely silent. Varun looked outside while Diya was playing in her tab. Ria thought of a way to cheer them up. She asked with a gentle smile, "Why are you guys so silent today?"
No reply came from them. "Are you guys angry at Mommy for something?", She asked again but there was no reply. Ren noticed the little ones actions and said, "Anna, want to have some ice cream?" Ria gave him a look saying, 'That was my plan!'
Diya peeked at Ren's face but he made sure to not notice the little one. Ria thought of playing along and said, "Yeah! I want to have some, Chérie. But the kids are not speaking so they might not eat!" Diya was about to speak when Varun pulled the hem of her shirt. Then she kept quiet.
A corner of Ria's lips curled up. "Ren, you know what we, both will have ice cream. Just us". Ren nodded and then they went to R&R mall. He exited the car and gave the car key to a security.
He was the boss of the mall so the supervisor came to meet them in minutes, even before they reach an ice cream shop. But Ren asked him to take care of other things as he was here for a personal visit.
Ria who carring Varun in her arms looked at Ren who had Diya in his arms and asked while raising one of her eyebrows, "R&R, ah?" She couldn't believe her own eyes, Ren's cheeks became tainted with a light streak of Red as he scratched his temple with a shy smile like he was caught doing something.
Ria smiled instantaneously and reached over to him then gave him a peck on his cheeks. Ren's canines were visible when he had the and he pulled her by his waist. They he gave her a kiss in the lips then let go of her. Ria's cheeks became a little pink.
The little one's became even more uncomfortable seeing their Mommy giving more attention to their Daddy than them. Diya extended her hands and said, "Mama!" when they were on escalator to the third floor.
Ren raised on his eyebrows at Diya but she didn't look at him all and focused on Ria. But Ria looked at Ren once and then took over Diya from his. Varun shifted to her left and Diya was on her right side. Ren holded Ria's waist to support her as both of his kittens were with him.
After they reached the Ice cream shop, Ren helped Ria to take a seat. Both Varun and Diya toom the seat on her left and right. Ren sat opposite to her. Ren had no idea why his kittens are going full alien on him. Ren stood up to buy some icecream.
He bought two ice creams first. Mint with chocolate flavour and brownie with strawberry flavour. That were the kittens favourite. Ria took mint one and Ren took the strawberry one. Diya kept looking at the icecream Ren held. He wanted to tease her but he gave up and fed her a spoonful.
Diya immediately smiled and jumped to Ren's lap. Ria laughed at those two and looked at Varun who was silent beside her. "Are you angry with Mommy?", Ria asked looking at the little one next to her.
He lifted his head and asked with eyes watery, "Mama, You dhon't whant us?" Ria's eyes teard up looking at him. She stood up and kneeled close to him. Then she asked, "Why do you think like that, sweetheart?" He hugged her neck and sobbed. Ria lifted him up and caressed the little one's back.
Ria said while coaxing him, "There is no one in this world, Mommy loves as much as I love you and Diya". Varun nodded his head on her nape and said, "Then Papa?" Ria smiled immediately and went to Ren. She put Varun in his lap and kneeled down beside them.
She then said to both the marshmallows, "Mommy and Daddy loves you two more than anything. We are the same, Okay? Mommy will be back in two days, during that time Daddy will take care of you. We will talk in Video chats, Okay sweeties?"
Diya shook her head and leaned towards her mother. Ria hugged the little one and looked at Ren for help. Ren felt a bit sad on their behaviour but he has to earn their love and trust to deepen their connection.
Ren said so softly to his kittens, "Papa, will take care of you guys very well. We will go to theme parks, beach and other fun places. Be with Papa for a while, Please?" They didn't say anything. Ren hugged Varun with one hand then caressed Diya's back with the other and asked, "Please?"
Diya peeked from Ria's embrace and looked at Ren's face. He kept his face so sad and then she leaned towards her father after a while. Varun also leaned towards him as Diya came back to his embrace.
Then Ria kissed the little one's forehead. Ren asked her, "For me?" Ria smacked his head but after that she also gave a him a kiss in the forehead.
