Cold Showers novel Chapter 38

"Daddy, is Jayda no longer coming to see me?" Aaron asked for the 6th time.

Sebastian smiled, "She's on her way, buddy. She should be here any time from now." He poured some water into Aaron's sippy cup and handed it to him.

"Thank you," Aaron said as he collected the cup from his father.

Sebastian connected his hands with Aaron's tiny ones then they made their way back to the living room to go continue watching Aaron's favourite cartoon.

Seb left work a little bit early today for Katie's place to pick Aaron for the weekend. From the moment they got settled in his car, he has been asking about Jayda.

Unfortunately, Jayda had to stay back at work because she had an impromptu meeting with important members of the firm.

A few minutes later, the doorbell rang. "Jayda is here?" Aaron asked as he rose to his feet excitedly.

Sebastian chuckled, "I guess so." He proceeded to the door with Aaron behind him.

"Heyy!" Jayda smiled at the love of her life as soon as he opened the door for her. She stepped in and gave him a quick kiss on his lips and after they pulled away, Seb kissed her forehead.

Jayda was about to ask of Aaron when she felt someone tug at her dress. She looked down and came face to face with a smaller version of Sebastian, smiling widely at her.

She returned his smile and dropped down to his height.

"Hi Jayda, my name is Aaron. I'm happy you came to see me." He said with a smiley face.

"It's nice to finally meet you, my love." Jayda placed a kiss on his cheek before pulling him into a hug.

Sebastian's heart melted as he watched the duo interact. He felt fulfilled.

"Daddy said my baby brother or sister is growing in your belly." He said as soon as Jayda pulled away from the hug.

"Yes, sweetheart. Your younger sibling is growing in my belly." She pointed to her small bump.

"Do you want to feel it?" She asked. Aaron nodded. She placed his tiny hand on her belly for him to feel his younger sibling.

Sebastian squatted towards them and joined their little discussion.

"Do you think it will be a boy or a girl?" Seb asked his excited looking son.

"A girl." He said proudly.

Jayda chuckled. Truly, she wanted to have a male child first, so he will take care of his younger sibling. But now, she doesn't mind if her baby was a girl, Aaron will be there to be a good big brother to her and protect her.

"A girl?" Sebastian reiterated.

Aaron grinned, responding with a nod.

"Oliver has a baby sister, I want a baby sister too so she will be my best friend and I will play with her all the time," he explained.

Even without Sebastian telling Jayda that Oliver was Aaron's friend at preschool she was able to come to the conclusion that Oliver was probably a friend to Aaron.

"We shall see about that," Sebastian concluded as he pushed aside some strand of hair that fell across Aaron's face.

"I made something for you Jayda," Aaron announced.

"For me?" Jayda smiled.

Aaron nodded and made his way to where his small backpack was seated. He opened it and took out a paper that has some drawing and painting on it. Then he came back to Jayda and Seb.

"Awww, This is beautiful," Jayda said, trying hard not to get teary. Even though the drawing was far from being professional or perfect or manageable, she got the interpretation of what he was trying to portray.

"This is you and inside this big belly is my baby sister." He explained.

Sebastian smiled proudly. He was glad Aaron made an attempt to do something related to art.

Jayda pulled Aaron into another hug. "Thank you, honey." She said, then kissed his forehead.

"I also got something for you too," Jayda announced. She signalled for Sebastian to pass her the gift bag she placed by the door and he did.

Jayda reached for the items in the gift bag and handed it to Aaron. It was a board game and a dinosaur puzzle.

"That's so sweet of you, my love." She kissed his cheek.

While Sebastian warmed up dinner, Jayda settled on the dining table with Aaron by her side. She engaged him in some lively conversations until the food was ready.

Sebastian served his family, they held hands and said a short prayer after which they dug in.

Jayda offered to feed Aaron while she ate her food too.

When they were done with dinner, Sebastian cleared the table and arranged the dishes in the dishwasher while Jayda took Aaron's bath for him and helped him change into his Pyjamas.

The trio cuddled on the sofa in the home theatre with some popcorn, watching Aaron's cartoon. He was in between Jayda and Sebastian.

Halfway through, Seb noticed Aaron had dozed off.

He picked his son up and took him to the guest room. It was already arranged for him.

Seb gently placed Aaron on the bed and covered him with the duvet.

"He looks so much like you. He has your nose, eyes, smile, and your personality. He's so adorable." Jayda said as she watched the little guy sleep.

Sebastian chuckled and wrapped his arms around Jayda's waist. She was standing by the bed.

"I know. I really hope I can make it up to him and also be a good role model to him and his baby brother or sister."

"You're amazing, you'll do just fine," Jayda assured, placing a kiss on Seb's lips.

The duo kissed Aaron's forehead before exiting the guest room.

When preparing the guest room for Aaron's arrival, Seb made sure he set up a camera that was connected to his IPad so he could monitor Aaron while the little guy slept.

"So what have you planned for us for the weekend," Jayda asked as they made their way to Seb's room.

"A lot of fun activities. We will be going out tomorrow and on our way back, we will stop at Caleb's place for dinner.
