ARSINOE'S POV
I knew for a fact that this was not an ordinary event but i did not want to disappoint Leo, I knew how much he loved his grandpa so I decided to play along. until when his grandpa invited me to his study room to discus business. Leo was hesitant to let me go but since he say Laura going with me he became a little ease. In this olds ,an study I composed myself with all the calmness that find. Mr. Yoshida is well known for his harsh words and ruthless behavior. But i am sure he knows very well not to mess with me. "My dear, i know that you are a brave and sharp busy woman so i already know you are impatient to here what i have to say" such a man talking like this is not normal he is being way kinder than his usual behavior. "Cut to the chase Mr. Yoshida and say what you called me here for?". "Okay, as you know your marriage to my grandson is so as to form an alliance, and since the alliance is already formed there is one thing missing. and that is a child. This will strengthen this alliance." i did hear what he was saying but what I did not hear is why this subject will benefit him.
"I heard what your concerns but this is non of your business, so I don't think its appropriate for us to talk about it" he was right though even though he has his own agender in mind, i mean who would not want to have a grandson who comes from two powerful families not only in the country but the entire nation. "My dear you of all people should know that this alliance is not enough to hold the enemies from far and within from striking, but with a child will change a lot of things , think about it my dear." When we left that for the evening the thought of what Mr. Yoshida said kept ringing in my head the entire time. I mean having a mini us won't be a bad thing, and also it will strengthen the alliance but also lets not forget it might not be the wise idea at this time. the organization has not been stable yet, even though the alliance has been formed, the opposition is quite high so having a child right now won't be the best thing to do.
its been a long time since I celebrated Christmas, and to day is the day things might change. i woke up really early in the morning, Laura always woke me up early every year but i was neve interested in it, but i remember that Leo loves Christmas so i decided to cook today. Last night we did not talk much on our way home and each time he kept asking is everything was okay, and what his grandpa and I had discussed about. But i had no answer to give him each time other than "We were only discussing about business nothing much" but i knew tat did not really ease him.
LEO'S POV
After she left my grandpa's office she requested if we could go back home and since i sensed the unease in her voice, I knew for a fact that what ever they were talking about did not quite sit right with her. I tried asking about it but she kept brushing me off by saying "don't worry its was just business" but i knew for a fact that that was not just business because if it was she would not be that way. once we arrived back at the mansion she went straight to the room saying no word at all, with that i knew that for a fact something was definitely wrong with her. By the time i woke up the next morning she was not beside me, I did not think to much about it because she always does that. As I was about to get off the bed there she came holding a tray of food on her hands.
"Merry Christmas husband, today i decided to bring you breakfast in bed, so don't waste my efforts" as much as she tried to be sweet, the domineering in her keeps showing it self. But I love the fact that she is really trying to be sweet. "I did not know that my wife can actually cook but this is fine." I gave a little laugh to show her that I was just joking after seeing the smile on her face disappear. Her food was so delicious, I almost forgot that she once was a cook and lets not forget the fact that she owns chains of restaurant in many countries. "You know not many restaurant owner do not know how to cook but you my wife are the best of all the chefs I have ever known. "Speaking of restaurant and food, i would like to take my wife on a Christmas date today, if she might permit me that is?" "Well since you are asking nicely, why not? just the fact that she agreed made me so happy, this will be my first Christmas with my wife, i will need to make the most of it. I stood up and headed to the closet and gave her a bag and asked her to look inside. I had already bought a dress for her for this evening all was needed was for her to accept and then wear it. We were not going out, the date was going to happen here at home but i needed her to think other wise which i know by now she sure does think so and that excites me that this time she cant read in between the lines. i had asked Laura last night after she had gone to bed that i needed her to distract my wife so that i can make all of this happen.
