Chapter 6

Chapter 6 - Let's take you home»»——⍟——««

You quickly sat up when you felt someone tap your shoulders. You gave a quick glare to whoever it is and saw the woman at the front desk.

She gulped before retracting her hand. "Uhm, ma'am the papers are all ready."

You nod at her before glancing around. The other couples are all getting ready to leave the place. Each of them guiding - more like pushing- their adopted kids out of the area.

You grabbed the papers and tuck it in your bag. You looked at your kid to see him still sleeping soundly. You smiled a bit at that before slowly holding him to your arm.

He shifted a bit as he snuggles closer to your chest. Damn you're still not used to that.

You stood up and followed the others out of the room and back to the lobby area.

The others continued to give you glares and disgusted looks as they fasten their phase so that they don't get anywhere near you.

You didn't really care and just rolled your eyes at their attitudes. Those kids are gonna be so damn spoiled, you don't even wanna think about it.

You glared at Henry when you saw him by the lobby. He took a warry glance at you before looking back at the others.

"I congratulate all of you for becoming a parent. I hope that your family would overcome the challenges you will all face and that you all feel the love and warmth of what a family truly is."

Damn, he gave a fairly good speech. Wonder how many times he repeated it.

"Well, I wouldn't hold you here any longer. I just want to inform you, parents, that the children still need to be checked in a hospital for their birth certificate. Please do come back within the week to give it to us. Thank you and have a blessed day." Henry gave a final bow as he proceeded to point out of the door

About time he let us leave this hell hole.

You were the first one to stroll out of that wretched place.

You breathe in once you felt the cold wind hitting your face. It was already 6 pm. It took quite a while than you imagined.

You sighed before proceeding to walk towards your car. You didn't even glance back to look at the other couples. Who gives a fuck about them anyway.

You opened the passenger seat in front then carefully place the kid there. You don't know if a 3-year-old is okay seating their but fuck the police. You're such a bad mother and you're just starting.

You quickly seat yourself down at the driver's seat and start the car. You glance back at the kid to see him still cuddling your furry jacket.

You grinned at his cuteness. That jacket was gifted to you by some fancy flamingo. Like you, he has an addiction to wearing cloaks and big jackets so him being an awesome friend - his words, not yours- he gave you that jacket. He wanted both of you to be twinning when you visit the underground.

You smirked at the memory when you did decide to visit the place while wearing the furry jacket. Everybody thought the both of you were dating. You were so amused at their expressions that you and the flamingo acted like lovers during the visit.

It was fun. Especially when you saw your friends gawking at the both of you. Some even showed their disapproval of you guys dating.

You stopped the car in front of a grocery store. It was almost time for dinner and you need to cook something that the kid can digest. You also need to buy some milk for him.

Damn, you need to buy a lot of things for the kid. He doesn't even have clothes. Fuck your life. You haven't planned anything at all.

Once you have properly parked you slowly shook the kid to wake him up. You're not just gonna leave him here in the car. You're gonna lose your parentage to him before a fucking day even passes.

He stared at you with those sleepy eyes that you can't help but grin at him.

"Sorry for waking you up kid. We're gonna go shopping and you're coming with me."

You watch him nod his small head. It's not like he understands you but he doesn't know what else to do.

You smirked at him before scooping him up on your arms again. You quickly slung your bag on your shoulder, your jacket hanging on it as well.

You proceeded to walk towards the entrance after you lock the car. You swiftly grab a cart and placed the kid and your bag down at it. He looked around him, observing everything. You ruffled his hair as you watch him stare at some things.

You pushed the cart towards the food section as you think of what to cook.

Maybe some pasta? And some soup to warm his tummy up first. As well as something sweet.

Deciding on what you're going to cook for dinner you glanced down to see the kid tugging at your fingers.

"What's wrong, kid?" You softly ask when you noticed his scared expression. That's when you see him shivering when some people pass us.

Shit.

You quickly decided to wrap your jacket around him. The kid glances up at you as you smiled at him. He sniffles a bit before proceeding to bury himself in it.

He's scared of other people. Fuck.

You let him placed his hands on top of yours as you pushed the cart to the baby section. You'll just buy some for the night then properly bring him shopping tomorrow.

You grabbed some baby bottles, some bibs, diaper, and two plain shirts for him to last until tomorrow.

You hummed calmly when you felt the kid playing with your hands.

You pushed the cart towards the counter when you saw the kid glancing at some toys. Of course, you forgot to buy some toys for him. Fuck your parental skills.

You slowly bring him to the toy aisle. He was glancing around everywhere with those sparkling eyes of his. You smirked down at him.

"What would you like kid?" You ask him as he continued to excitedly fiddle with your jacket.

The kid looked at you with wide eyes before looking around. You watch as his eyes widen when he stared at something before quickly looking back down at your fingers.

You frowned at him before glancing at the spot he was staring at a few seconds ago. It was a robot toy. You chuckled a bit before walking over and placing it down at his lap.

He stared at you with those eyes of his that you just can't help but smirk at him. He looks down at the toy before proceeding to play with it. You saw a grin at his face as he plays with it.

This kid is cute not gonna lie.

You paid for the items, leaving the toy within the kid's grasp as he played with it. You put the items on the trunk before placing the kid down at his seat.

Once he was secured at his seat you quickly drove back home.

The drive home will take a while since traffic is heavy during this time of night. You made sure to grab a small bag of biscuits that the kid could nibble on while he plays with his newfound toy.

You glanced down at him when he tapped on your arm. The kid stared at you with his confused eyes before looking at the window then back at you.

That's when you realized that he haven't talked the whole time. Not a peep have you heard from him except the sniffling and crying. You frowned a bit before reminding yourself to bring him to the doctor within the week.

"We're going home, kid." You muttered as you look back at the road.

From the corner of your eyes, you watch as he tilted his head to the side in confusion.

"I'm taking you home with me. You'll be living with me from now on. " You smiled softly as you continued to face the road.

You almost stepped on the brakes when you heard some sniffling. You glanced at the kid when you hit a red light.

"Hey, hey, what's wrong?" You panicked a bit. Fuck. Did something happen? Did he hit his head? What?

You tensed when he crawled closer to you and hug your arm. You bit your lip as you don't know how to react, but decided to just pat his head.

After a while, he slowly let go and sat back down to his seat. You smiled a bit at him before proceeding to look back at the road. Thank god it's still a red light.

You arrived at your house. It was in a gated and secluded village so that you would get some peace and quiet. It wasn't close to other malls and stores but you were fine with that. You love your privacy anyways.

You grabbed the kid and your bag as you walked up to your front porch. Unlocking the door, you quickly open the lights and carefully sat the kid on the couch in the living room.

"Stay there for a while okay?" You patted his head. You were about to walk back to the car when you felt a tug on your shirt.

You glance down at the kid to see him looking at you with tearful eyes. You sighed, how can you forget?

You softly smiled at him before holding him with your left arm. You would just need to take several trips back.

You proceeded to take the bags to your kitchen, the kid resting his head on your chest. Once you placed everything in the kitchen, you looked down at the kid again.

You can't possibly cook properly with him on your arms.

You sighed before an idea popped into your head. You slowly held the kid up to your head. You let him clung to your hair as you continued to place all the things you bought to its proper place.

You grinned when you felt the kid play with your hair.

Once everything was placed, you proceeded to cook some dinner. Crab and corn soup, Mac and cheese and you bought a mini red velvet cake.

You placed everything on some bowls and plates. You were surprised when something blocked your view. You glanced at the kid as he looked at you upside down from your head.

You give him a cheeky grin as he stares at you. You carefully placed him down on a chair. He continued to stare at you as you settle the plates in front of him and placed a bib around his neck. This kid really loves to stare huh.

You took a seat beside him, your food in front of you as well. You slowly placed your hands together as you glanced at the kid. He looked at your hands before copying it.

You grinned. "Thank you for the food."

You proceeded to feed him as he held the spoon with his small shaky hands. The kid at first tried to eat on his own but the utensils kept falling from his hands so he just let you feed him after the fifth spoon dropped.

Once both of you were done eating you took all the dishes and placed them on the washer. The kid just stayed at his chair as he tapped the table. You tried to take the kid back to the living room but damn he doesn't want to leave you. It's cute but still.

You placed the kid on the couch as you turned on the TV. It was 8:23 pm. That's when it dawned on you, you don't have the guest rooms cleaned up. AND YOU DON'T HAVE A CRIB! WHAT THE FUCK?! HOW CAN YOU BE SO STUPID!

You sighed at your idiocy before looking down at the kid. He was awestruck while watching some Spongebob.

Guess we can just sleep here in the living room. You just need to get some more pillows and blankets to lay on the floor.

You were about to stand up when the kid whipped his head towards you at your movement. Damn kid chill.

You sighed at him before grabbing the kid as well and placing him on your head like before. You walked up to the second floor and towards one of the guest rooms. You took 4 pillows and three fluffy blankets.

Once you were in the living room you laid two of the blankets on the floor and placed the pillows around it. You carefully placed the kid down on it before wrapping the last blanket around him.

The kid patted the blanket with a grin on his face. You smiled at him as you proceeded to surround the kid with the pillows. You lay down once you deemed it safe and comfy for him to sleep on.

You let him watch some more SpongeBob while you scrolled through your phone. There was nothing else to do so you look at some shopping websites. Maybe you can find something to buy for the kid.

When you glanced at the kid after a while you see him starting to doze off. You carefully lay him down properly as you tucked him in the blanket.

You turned the TV off and lay down beside the kid. Your tired eyes watch him as he breathed in and out.

"Oyasumi..." You murmured as sleep crept on to you.

All done finally!!!

So as you might notice, Kid doesn't talk as of now. I'll explain in another chapter why. And you might also notice that Y/N or you, don't talk much in the past chapters.

Well, you are kind of more on the action speaks louder type of person. You only talk when spoken too, or when with your friends and other people. But since Kid doesn't talk much as well, you have gone back to being the quiet person that you are.

It's not the awkward silence! More on the comforting silence since you do love your peace and quiet.

Well, that's all I guess.
