"How shameless could you get?" George whispered as they were ascending the stairs.
"I was just telling them the truth. Isn't having children part of the agenda why we do it?" Responded Cody with a smirk.
"Whatever... but things like this should stay between us. Why are you so suggestive in from of mom and dad?" She weakly complained.
Pushing open the door to their bedroom, Cody said "My sweet, sweet wife... It's normal for adults to speak this way... and it is even more normal to..." He intentionally let the rest of his words fade as he captured his wife's lips.
George was not given a chance for a come back as the husband kept her tongue occupied as he deepened the kiss. And just like any other day of passion, they made love until it was almost midnight. She could barely move from exhaustion. He got clean wash cloths to wipe her down before he took a quick shower. He then laid down beside her, hugging her waist.
When they woke up the next day, they were both famished. They haven't had a bite since they went up to have some bedroom exercises the day before.
It was fortunate that Cody's parents are there. His mother has already prepared breakfast when the couple went down. The old lady looked at her children with a meaningful smile. Then she said, "Your dad and I will be leaving after breakfast."
"So soon? Mom, you could at stay here for a few days," George said.
"Hija, it wasn't our intention to really stay here. We just wanted to check on you, two. What we've seen is satisfactory so there is no reason for us to stay longer, ok," said Mother Chiong.
"Without our granddaughter here, you could focus on yourselves. We will pray that the beautiful relationship will last, just like mine and your mom's marriage," added Father Chiong.
George was touched by the words of her parents in law that she felt like tearing up. Seeing that, Cody squeezed her hand and kissed her forehead. He then said, "Mom, Dad, at least stay one more day. I'll drive you home, tomorrow."
The old couple agreed and the four spent the rest of the weekend bonding over food, movies and conversations.
The next day, George and Cody dropped Mr. and Mrs. Chiong in their old place before heading to JADE.
Although George is silent about it, in her heart, she really wants to conceive Cody's child. For her, it is one way she could return her husband's adoration. For the past few months, she has been tracking down her period and tried to keep herself as healthy as possible. She knows her age is one factor that will limit the chances of pregnancy but she still wants to try.
Cody, on the other hand, despite being vocal about having children over the weekend, was not actually considering having kids that seriously. Both he and his wife are already in their forties. He is worried of the risk a baby will have on George. Besides, he already considers Meg his own so he feels his family is complete.
Entertaining separate thoughts as they work, the couple stayed in companionable silence for most of the day.
