Chapter 57: Dinner With The Adams (2)
Mel was surprised and at the same time felt funny to see Briel, the cute chubby baby, threw herself in Mario’s big arms.
"Uncle Adams, sorry we are late," Alex said.
Mel is a little bit confused. Is she heard Alex call Mr.President an uncle?
Mel glared at Alex and Mario; she already knows they come from the CCTV she hacked a while ago.
"Hi, you guys come? Why did you guys not tell me earlier? If we come together, we can save gas, right?" She asked them sarcastically, pretending that she was surprised to see them.
’You guys traitors!!’ She cursed them with her piercing eyes.
Alex and Mario smile at her.
"Hi Mel, sorry I didn’t tell you we’re also coming. Uncle invites us this morning, and I completely forget to call you..." said Mario. The latter was standing beside her while carrying Briel in his arms. He adds, "Don’t be nervous; just treat this place like your own home." He grinned to reassure her.
Is that possible? It’s Golden House, man!! Suddenly Mel felt like she wanted to punch him in the face. But of course, she can’t do that, right.
She only could glare at him while said with a low tone, "Since when did you become the president’s nephew?" she asked.
"Aunty Megan is my father’s sister, so she is my aunty." He said.
It turns out Mario is Aunty Megan’s nephew; that’s why little Briel likes him.
"But why the kids call you uncle? they suppose to be your bro and sis right?" Mel confused.
"I don’t know why, that’s what they called us from the beginning..." Mario chuckled softly.
Mel "...."
Mario Adds "Maybe they see us too old to be call brother." he laughs.
Mel chuckled.
She tries to approach baby Briel, "Hi little cute baby Briel, you look so cute. Can I carry you?" She held out both her hands, trying to carry baby Briel, but she refused and burry her tiny head into Mario’s chest.
Several times she tried, but still, little cute baby Briel refused. Finally, Mel gave up.
While waiting for dinner ready, they all sit in the spacious living room. Alex now talks with Uncle Daniel on the other side. Mel and Mario sit with Bobby and Briel.
And for Aunty Megan, It’s been a long while she disappeared to the kitchen; it seemed she was busy preparing this special dinner.
Finally, Mel has time to know better these two adorable children, Bobby Adams, and Briel Adams.
Bobby Adams, ten years old, looks very mature at a young age. The way Bobby spoke was like a grown man. He seems tall for a boy in his age. His hair is dark brown with low cut style, his nose so well-defined. The first thing that caught Mel’s attention when she sees him was his dimples when he smiled, looking similar to his father’s.
And Briel Adams, five years old. When Mel saw her when she came, she immediately thought that this child was a living doll, really adorable. Her face was small but a little bit chubby, her eyes big with long eyelashes, and her long curly dark brown hair fell to her waist. She immediately liked her.
She wanted to pinch her chubby pink cheeks a few times, but a shy baby Briel seems scared of her.
"Sister Mel, can I call you that?" Suddenly Bobby comes to sit near her, and he asked in his charming soft voice.
"No. You’ll call Mel aunty!" Mario answers without gives Mel a chance to speak.
Suddenly Mel is feeling Deja-Vu. This Mario, why sounded like someone she knows long ago?
Andrew’s picture flashed in Mel’s mind; she blinks several times at Mario.
"Why can’t I call sister? I prefer calling Sister Mel because Sister Mel is beautiful and not an old lady like other aunties!"
"But still, you can’t call her like that. It’s impolite." Mario insists while he glares at Bobby opposite.
"No, uncle, I want to call her Sister!" he crossed his arm in front of his chest. Then he looks at Mel; he adds, "can I call you sister Mel?" he asks again; Now, he sounded like a plea.
Mel nods in agreement with this cute Little boy. "You right, aunty is too old for me. Just call me sister; sounds lovely." She smiles while touches lightly on top of his head. Then she sends a sharp glare at Mario.
Mario could only shake his head then talk to little Brie, who is busy eating cookies.
"Sister Mel, you are gorgeous; I like you." Mel dumbfounded. It’s the first time she hears someone express feeling to her. But, too bad he is only a ten years old boy, this is not worth celebrating. He adds, "And thanks for helping me. Could we be friends?" His cheek was slightly blushing like embarrassment, his brown eyes flashing light. He stretched out his tiny hand towards Mel.
It makes Mel excited for a moment, but at the same time, she wants to laugh because this little boy is talking like a grown-up man.
"Sure, dear." Mel bowed her head towards him, then smiled sweetly and reached out her hand for a handshake. "Nice to meet you, Bobby; let’s be friends."
He smiles broadly. Mel could only chuckle silently. After that, she asks him, "Bobby, I want to ask you something."
Bobby nods with his eye blink several times.
"Your little sister seems scared of; why is it?" Mel is curious because she likes Briel; she wants to play with that cute little chubby baby, but she is not friendly toward her.
"Sister, don’t worry about her. She always like that whenever she saw a girl prettier than her. And, she must feel jealous because you know uncle Mario."
Mel smile.
"Uncle Mario is her second favorite uncle," Bobby adds.
"And who is her first? Uncle Alex?" Somehow she feels happy to gossiping the little cute chubby baby, Briel.
Bobby shakes his head, "No... no, her favorite uncle is the first uncle." Mel confuse. How many uncles do they have? Before she could ask, Aunty Megan comes in to call them for dinner.
In the grand dining room,
They sat at a large table with various unique culinary from the city J and some western food.
Mel saw that some dishes were her favorite foods. Mel smiles and gives two thumbs-up to Alex silently; she knows Alex must have told them that she likes meat.
Alright, that would be an extra point for Alex. After leaking her true identity to Mr. President, she’s a bit upset with Alex. But for telling them her favorite food, she thinks she will forgive him.
She is in a good mood now. In no time, they all eat in silence.
After dinner, Aunty Megan and the two kids finally back to their room. At the same time, Uncle Daniel and others go back to the family room to continue chatting.
But not long after, Mr. Rexi comes in and says something to Uncle Adams. He excuses going to his study room to receiving an important call from abroad.
As soon as uncle Adams left the room, Mel immediately asked Alex.
"Brother Alex, why did you give my real identity to Uncle Adam?"
Mario, who was in the room with them, was a little surprised to hear Mel... ’Real identity?’ he asked in his mind.
"Sorry little sister, I had no choice. When Uncle Adams found out that you were helping his son, he immediately investigated your identity. Still, your identity is TOP SECRET, which only me and the commander in chief of the Army can access. Even the President doesn’t have access." Alex paused for a moment to observe Mel’s reaction, but what he saw surprised him. Mel showed no response; she just sat holding her cup while looking straight into his eyes.
"Wait! What are you guys talking about again? Whose identity is it?" Mario, who was sitting beside Alex and had not understood their conversation for a long time, finally asked. But they ignore him. Nobody answers his question.
Alex continued saying, "After Uncle Daniel knows your identity is TOP SECRET, he called me right away. He knows that you know the XTeam members. So, I have no choice; I tell him everything."
"Guys...? Can you answer my question, please?" Mario’s tone sound annoyed.
Alex continues, "Even if I didn’t tell him, he definitely would ask Commander-in-chief of the Army. You know what I mean, right?" their eyes still locked.
Mel could understand. But she feels annoyed because Alex did not tell her before. "At least you should tell me first," she said in her soft voice.
"Mel... what identity? Your identity TOP SECRET? Who are you?" Mario asks again; now, he was even more annoyed because they completely ignore him.
Still, nobody answers him. He finally gives up to ask these two ignorant people. He could only lean his back to the sofa and eat nuts while watching TV in the corner.
"I’m sorry little sister; I know this is my fault. I forget to tell you before." He smiles at her and feels more relaxed after he sees Mel’s a little bit calm.
Mel could only nod.
Alex adds, "To make up with you, I will treat you to dinner at my family restaurant? How?" Alex smiles in his mind; he knows so well Mel’s weakness, eats good food.
Her eyes glimmer when she hears Alex will bring her to eat at Steak House again. Of course, she will gladly accept his offer. "REALLY?" she asks.
Alex nods.
"Okay, brother!!" she immediately agrees.
