The More the Merrier novel Chapter 34

Chapter 34 Jesse Is A Girl

“Shut up and go to sleep!”

Arissa was bemused when Zachary spoke with a firm tone of voice as he ordered Arissa to go to sleep.

She turned around to hug him and place a kiss on his cheek. “So you’re all grown up and eager to bark orders at your mother now, aren’t you?”

“Hehe! That tickles, Mommy!” Zachary squirmed as he tried to avoid Arissa’s tickling.

“All right, go to sleep!”

Arissa held both of them in her arms as she patted them gently to sleep.

Gavin inched closer and wrapped his arms around her, feeling the warmth emanating from his mother’s body.

Upon seeing Gavin’s antics, Zachary hugged Arissa while glancing at Gavin.

Her lips curled into a smile as she looked at their identical faces. She patted their heads and closed her eyes.

After an hour of sleep, Arissa woke up abruptly, as she felt Jesse lying on top of her.

“I want to sleep with Mommy too!” Jesse exclaimed. Arissa hugged the petite child and kissed her on the cheek.

Oliver came into the room as well.

“Are you still sleeping, Mommy? I want to sleep next to you too!”

“What time is it now?”

As she held Jesse in her arms, Arissa sat up and looked at the time.

“No more sleeping!”

Zachary and Gavin woke up.

She hugged Jesse and said to the boys, “Go freshen up and get dressed, sweethearts! We’re going to school soon!”

Clinging onto Arissa’s neck, Jesse planted kisses on her mother’s face. Soon, Arissa’s face was covered with saliva.

Even so, Arissa was delighted and turned to kiss Jesse’s soft cheeks.

She asked Jesse gently, “Do you want to wear a dress to school, Jesse?”

“Yeah!” Jesse clapped happily.

The three boys followed behind Arissa.

Gavin was perplexed. He looked at Zachary and Oliver in confusion.

Jesse’s a boy, isn’t he? Why is Mommy letting him wear a dress?
