A Night with Gideon novel Chapter 16

He immediately dialed Caius’ number when he heard the door close. Just two rings, the brother immediately answered his call. “Sister,” it opened. “Summer is looking for you. Why aren’t you here yet, it’s late.” He opened the blinds on the ceiling to floor glass wall of the suite. The gigantic buildings with their lights alive appeared before his eyes. The sky is getting dark. It’s past six o’clock in the evening. Did he sleep that long? That’s why his stomach is grumbling because he didn’t eat lunch earlier. “Let’s talk to him, Cai. Is he there?” “Summer,” he called his daughter on the other line. The call was cut short and it switched to a video call.

He smiled widely at Summer when he saw her on the cellphone screen.

“Mommy, you didn’t wait for me to wake up,” her voice was sullen and cutely cute. Her baby was wearing a pink shirt and blue baby shorts. Her hair is in a pigtail braided in two parts.

“Mommy needs to leave early.” “Important?” He smiled a little and nodded. “Yes and I’m sorry because we won’t see each other for three days.”

Summer frowned and pulled away even more. “Why? Is it more important than me, the baby?”

He wanted to face palm for what he said. There she goes again. He goes through her making her cute again.

“No, of course you are still more important than Mommy. But this is for your future. So that we can buy you new shoes, a dress and then of course so that you have food and then milk.” “But I will miss you.” ?

“I know and I will miss you too. Only three sleeps baby. Then we will meet again.” Her daughter pouts and blinks three times. The old man seemed to be thinking about what he said. Then, it nodded.

“Okay. Kiss and hug me when we see each other, Mommy. Summer loves you.” It resoundingly kissed the palm before presenting it to the cellphone screen, giving her a flying kiss,

“I love you too.” He also gave his son a flying kiss. “But Mommy, are you going to still find daddy?” this is an innocent question. He saw that Caius who was behind him was also surprised.

“Baby, didn’t I tell you that he is far away.”

“Yes. But I saw him Mommy. He knows me because I called him Daddy. He is not far away.”

He sighed. If only his son knew, he would be with his father now. They are in the same place. It’s just that, he doesn’t know how to tell Gideon about Summer. “What do you want me to greet you with?” he avoids talking. Summer’s eyes twinkled at his question. “Pink bag, Mommy. The small one is like this.” He stood up and stroked his hand from his left shoulder to his right waist. “Sling bag?”

“I don’t know what it’s called, Mommy. May big po kasi ako no’n di ba? I want a small one. I’ll keep my money in there so I can save.”

“Alright. Just, you have to promise me that you will behave while I’m not there. Don’t scold Mamila so she doesn’t get sick. And of course be a good girl to Tito Cai, okay?” “Yes,” he nodded and faced his brother. His small hand cupped Caius’s face and blinked. “I’m a good girl Tito Cai, right?” “Right,” his brother laughed and lifted Summer to sit on his lap before turning his gaze to her. “We’ll take care of Summer, Sister. Don’t cry there.”

He laughed and wiped his watery eyes. “I know that. But this is the first time I’ve been away from my baby for this long.” “Sister, you are about to finish your studies. And then I think he needs some practice.” 2 He nodded because his brother had a point. Some things are just destined to change. After he finishes college, he will probably have flights domestically and internationally. And he knew there were times he would end up in the same situation. He just prayed that Summer wouldn’t grow up resenting him because he might not give her enough time. I hope not.

She will do her best to be a best mom to her daughter. 2 “Teacher was sick, Mommy,” Summer interjected when she asked why they called earlier when they were supposed to be at school. “They are the same as my classmate.

Kuya Guard said, “They have fever.” , “How is Jessa?” he asked Caius. “I haven’t called him yet, eh.” “No one said “Te. But Summer’s young classmate is said to have dengue. It’s good that the requirements are being passed on to us, so I didn’t go in to accompany Summer,”
