The Prodigy Boy Is Actually A 25 Old Girl!?
Chapter 279 - Ch. 279 Arrived At The AirportRoxy was exhausted, and the drowsiness was back to get her. Declan pulled away and licked his wet finger because he didn't want to miss her sweet love juices.
"I know what you're doing." was Roxy's comment. "You don't want me to drive you to the airport."
Declan smiled gently and laid down next to Roxy after pulling Roxy into his arms. "I know you have trauma to the airport. I don't want you to force yourself."
"But I'm not. You don't know what it's like to be apart from you, even for one day. It feels like months."
Declan looked at Roxy in disbelief, but the next second, his gaze was filled with so much love that Declan himself couldn't measure it.
"Believe me. I feel the same way as you do. But I'm more worried about your condition."
Roxy smiled happily, hearing Declan's explanation. She knew this man loved her deeply, and perhaps the only person who would stand up for her even though the world was against her would be Declan alone.
"I want to know where my limit is. I've made peace with the past, but I still can't forget my last meeting with my sister at the airport. I want to go with you, whether on a business trip or visiting relatives who live out of town. I want to do it with you."
Roxy raised her head a little, and two pairs of eyes stared at each other lovingly. "I don't know if I can get into the airport or not, but at least I want to be brave enough to stand in front of the airport entrances." was her unwavering resolution. "Besides, I want to see you a little longer before you leave."
Declan carried Roxy even deeper into his arms. "As you wish, my love."
Not long after, the two of them got ready again and left for the airport. Declan called Kris and ordered the man to come over to the airport and drive Roxy home.
"I'll be fine. He doesn't have to come." that's what Roxy said. "I can drive on my own."
"It's not for your sake, but it's for mine. I would be calmer if someone accompanied you."
"Even though that person is another man?" asked Roxy in a teasing tone.
"Kris is not another man. He is someone I trust."
"Hmm. Is he someone you trust or are you not that jealous anymore?"
Declan laughed in amusement while shaking his head, realizing Roxy was teasing him. He grabbed Roxy's hand as usual and brought it to her mouth to kiss her.
"I love you."
"Not more than I do."
"Well, I doubt that. I'm pretty sure my love is much greater than yours."
"Are we debating now?"
"You started it first."
They both laughed amusedly without letting go of their hands. As they approached the airport area, Roxy broke out in a cold sweat when she saw a plane flying and about to land.
Without her brain's permission, the image of Kaylee's face filled with disappointment and hopelessness towards her appeared in her mind.
At that time, her heart told her to take her sister's hand and cancel their return. Roxy really couldn't bear to see her sister's desperate face like that.
But… she obeyed her brains more because she didn't want Kaylee to be by Declan's side when he woke up from his coma.
It was a day of regret, and she knew… she wouldn't be able to go back in time to fix it.
"Are you alright?" Declan noticed the hand he was holding had become icy cold from the moment they entered the airport area. Moreover, the hum of the plane started to sound, and Roxy became more and more silent.
"I'll be fine."
Declan knew Roxy was trying her best to look tough. "You don't have to force yourself."
"I'm fine, Declan. It's a good start. I'm not shaking, at least."
"You do realize that your hand is as cold as ice."
"..."
Declan stopped right in front of the airport gate and turned to Roxy with a gentle gaze. "Should I cancel my departure? You look pale."
"No, you can't do that. This is your first meeting with your father."
"I'm not that excited to meet him, though."
"Declan, I'll be fine," stated Roxy in a reassuring tone. "You have to go. I promise I'll be fine and return home safely."
"Don't go home alone. Kris is on the way here."
"Dec," Roxy was about to protest but fell silent as Declan continued his sentence.
"That's my final word, Roxy, unless you want me to postpone my flight."
"Fine."
Declan smiled with satisfaction seeing his wife's obedience, and continued to enter the airport gate. He noticed Roxy closed her eyes and tried not to imagine herself at the airport right now.
"How are you feeling now?"
"I'm fine." Roxy felt like she had said the same thing a hundred times. "See? I'm doing great." Roxy pushed her memories of that day deep into her mind and focused her attention on her lover.
That was the only way to get rid of her trauma and guilt. Unfortunately, she didn't know whether she could hold it in until Declan boarded the plane or not.
Declan saw that Roxy's expression had improved, and the girl's hands weren't as cold as before, so he believed her answer. The two got out of the car after Declan parked his car in the parking area. They walked hand in hand, and Roxy tried her best to control her feelings because now her heart was beating fast as they approached the departure gate.
Roxy's footsteps stopped as she couldn't hold back her guilt anymore. Not to mention, the bustling atmosphere and lots of people hugging each other as they were about to part made Roxy feel like a vault was crushing her.
It was heavy, as if it wanted to be pulled her into the abyss.
She couldn't do it. She thought she could, but she couldn't.
Declan realized his wife's struggles and decided to walk back to the parking area. His sudden action left Roxy confused and wondering, did Declan cancel his trip?
She didn't know whether she should be relieved or guilty.
