It's Hard to Control My Naughty Wife!

Chapter 793: THAT'S NO LONGER MY HOME

"What came off?" asked Misha, he then squatted down in front of his little daughter and observed Mika's expression that looked annoyed.         

    

Mika held out her shirt button which had fallen off and looked very sad. The button on her shirt was in the shape of a bunny and this was her favorite dress.     

"This came off," Mika said with a grunt, showing her white rabbit button.     

Misha took the small button of the shirt and thought for a while. "How about we get it fixed later, after eating ice cream?" Misha coaxed. He thought of a nice boutique nearby, which surely would have 'experts' who knew what to do to mend the buttons of this shirt.     

Mika blinked her eyes, on the verge of tears, but when she heard Misha's solution, she nodded. "Okay," she answered slowly, then raised both hands, indicating that she wanted to be carried.     

It was just a small gesture that didn't mean anything, but for some reason, it warmed his heart. Misha had never felt this relieved and happy, not even when he won a tender for a big project.     

He felt so happy that little Mika asked him to carry her and now she rested her head on his shoulder, as he carried her out of the bathroom.     

Once outside, Richard was still waiting for them and he seemed to be talking to two women who were about to go inside the bathroom. He held them back posing reasons Misha didn't care to know.     

"Oh, finally you came out, Sir," said Richard with relief, he then invited the two women to enter the bathroom. They looked annoyed and were about to get angry at him, but when they saw Misha's figure, they didn't throw swear words and were even amazed.     

This wasn't unusual for Richard and he was used to this unfair treatment, thus, he didn't really care and it was obvious that Misha didn't care either.     

"What happened?" Richard asked curiously, he looked at Mika, but it didn't seem like this little girl was hurt or something.     

"Her shirt button came off," Misha answered in a calm voice, as he walked back into the cafe to order ice cream that Mika liked.     

"I want a strawberry flavored one," said Mika happily. "The pink one." She showed him the strawberry ice cream she liked and looked at Misha expectantly.     

Being stared at like that, let alone a serving of ice cream, Misha was even willing to buy the entire store for this little girl.     

And after they bought Mika's favorite ice cream in a big bowl which should be enough for four people, they went to the boutique to get the button fixed that had fallen off her favorite shirt.     

"She'll get a stomach ache if she eats that much ice cream," said Richard, grimacing when he saw Mika happily enjoying her big ice cream.     

"But she's happy," Misha said without thinking, he just loved it when he saw his daughter happy like this and the expression she showed with her toothy smile made him feel a feeling he could never understand before.     

"Yes…. But, you still can't give all the ice cream to her, Sir," Richard reminded Misha again.     

Misha looked conflicted when he had to take back the big ice cream bowl from Mika's lap.     

"Ms. Kia will be mad if she finds out about this and if Mika gets sick it will get even worse," Richard said lightly, secretly enjoying watching Misha's inner conflict now.     

======================      

"What do you want to tell me?" asked Kia impatiently, she didn't want to spend too long with Daniel. Moreover, she thought Misha would be back with Mika in about an hour. He couldn't have left town just to buy an ice cream, right?     

On the other hand, Daniel wore an expression that was hard to read, there was so much emotion hidden behind his eyes and for a moment he didn't say anything.     

Now they were at a cafe, near Kia's apartment, because she didn't want to go far with Daniel. She felt uncomfortable being in the car alone with him.     

"Come home, Kia. Father and mother miss you, not to mention Alia," Daniel said. In the end, he just repeated the same sentence he had said before, word to word. "How long are you going to be like this?" he asked.     

Somehow Kia wanted to laugh when she heard that, she felt so stupid to expect to hear a sincere apology from him.         

    

And now, that little bit of hope had successfully been shattered. She didn't know what to do with her brother anymore.     

"I'm really disappointed in you, Daniel," Kia said in a low voice, she leaned her back against the back of the chair while looking at Daniel placidly. "You keep telling me to go home, but you don't know where the actual problem is."     

"The problem is, you are so stubborn to hold a grudge against our parents," Daniel said quickly, he voiced what was on his mind and what he felt.     

However, one thing he always did was; not considering other people's feelings and very rarely putting himself in someone else's shoes, thus, he only saw matters from one perspective.     

"You are very wrong if you think I hold a grudge against our parents, Alia or you," Kia said calmly, now that everything was clear and she finally got to the point where she realized that she could no longer expect anything from her family, she felt much calmer, although the pain was still raw at the edges of her heart.     

"If that's not it, then why don't you go home? I told you that you can go home now, they have forgiven you," said Daniel, he felt uncomfortable when he said this, especially when he saw how calm Kia was.     

"I don't hold a grudge against them, nor do I need forgiveness from them, because I am not in the wrong and I don't need to be forgiven. Moreover, it's no longer my home to go back to."
