The Traps of Black Swan

Aarvi and Shawn couldn't believe a relationship could also start that way. They were dumbfounded yet found it hilarious, especially for Tia to think Dax endured her assault.

Controlling their laughter, Shawn and Aarvi decided to shower quickly and leave the day for a brand new couple totally confusing Dax.

"Ahem... Guys." He alternated his gaze on Shawn and Aarvi.

Shawn and Aarvi looked at each other and burst into laughter and she said between her laughter walking up to him, "I thought you are my big kid only. Now, you got yourself another mommy to take responsibility. Aww... So cute." She patted his head.

Dax: "..."

Shawn commented leaning on the door frame, "Man, you got every sinful kiss before yesterday and the one to take your responsibility is just for the kiss on your palm."

Damn, he straight hurt Dax's conscience before entering the guest room.

However, the girl next to Dax smiled at him, "I am happy for you. The double celebration on your birthday."

She was leaving but Dax held her hand and pulled her back to sit on the center table. "Aren't you angry?" He asked directly without beating around the bush. He clearly knows his way is clearly against Dum Dum's ways.

Aarvi shook her head. Dax might play and enjoy his life but she knows he is loyal when he commits to anything, it may be work, supporting his friends, or love.

He might have tricked Tia but Aarvi believed in Dax that he won't keep his relationship on tricks and lies. He wasn't a scummy president of a novel.

Aarvi advised instead, "Tia is very sensitive, so clear it soon."

Her doubtless support always makes him happy. Dax pulled her cheeks and added, "My Dum Dum is best."

Aarvi chuckled and was about to give him a congratulate hug but paused when Dax's arms had already opened, "You have a girlfriend now, I should behave." She nodded to herself and was leaving, Dax pulled her to hug, "Then I only need sugar mommy, let me ditch my girlfriend."

Aarvi giggled as congratulated him and saw Rose peeking at them. She wanted to tease her as she is having an affair with her boyfriend but dropped the thought as their relationship is very raw and unstable.

Patting his arm, Aarvi went to Tia, "It's very late, go and have breakfast with him. I will get ready and come."

Tia wanted to grab hold of Aarvi, she didn't want to face Dax alone but remembered she is his girlfriend now. 'Argh,' She obediently responded to Aarvi, "Okay sister Aarvi."

Dax pointed at the stairs for Tia when she stood without uttering a word. Then he followed her to the dining hall. They were about to start breakfast when the doorbell rang but the door unlocked.

Dax remembered he got a call and he hadn't checked who it was. He saw his parents and realized they had called and went to see him instead of waiting for him.

Hoping Tia won't overreact. He greeted them with warm hugs, "Mom... Dad..."

Tia: "..."

She wanted to flee but was frozen on the chair looking at Dax's parents. She had assumed the Grant family will have a very luxurious life and his parents would be very high five but they were very simple and modest that made her feel relaxed unknowingly.

She could feel how his parents were affectionate and proud of Dax and he wasn't a cold-hearted son but a lively one and also poked fun seeing his mother cook something for him.

She choked on her toast when the three turned towards her at the same time feeling her gaze.

She thought Dax might order her or wave at her call her near to introduce them but he said something to his parents and their face bloomed instantly. 'He isn't as bad I thought.'

His parents had little excitement when they went towards her and Dax went to the kitchen. Tia quickly stood up when they closed the distance.

Father Grant took a seat nodding at Tia and Mother Grant stood in front of Tia, "Hello Mr. and Mrs. Grant." Tia slightly bowed to each.

Father Grant smiled and added, "You can call us Uncle and Aunt. No need to be so formal."

Mother Grant nodded, "Yes, child. When you and Dax decide to marry, you can address as Mom and Dad like him."

Tia: "..." 

Marriage? She still needs time to digest she is Dax's girlfriend.

Dax who exited the kitchen with dishware, reminded his mother, "Mom, you are frightening her. I told you it's..." He glanced at Tia before continuing, "Our first day."

Tia flushed bright red hearing 'Our first day.' She was feeling like she is a newlywedded bride and it's her first day with in-laws and her husband.

"Alright alright..." Mother Grant quieten his son.

Father Grant pointed to their breakfast plates, "Eat up fast. You should eat on time. This young generation doesn't care about their health." He nagged, Mother Grant too followed him.

Tia didn't speak a word and they didn't force her either. She felt comfortable in their presence so she smiled and laughed with them throughout the breakfast forgetting the other two in the villa.

Aarvi and Shawn waited ten minutes for the attention but failed. They were feeling like the Grant family is completed looking at them. They wished Tia to know the real Dax just like how she had discerned why he keeps people away from him.

Anyway, Tia was just 21 so they weren't ready to assume they will have a successful relationship but hoped they could have a good relationship and understanding.

Deciding to leave the family and the new couple to enjoy their day, the duo met Dax's parents. They knew each other for a long time so they were pretty close too, then the two bid them and left.

After an enjoyable breakfast, Tia was going upstairs thinking to leave after taking her bag but her gaze landed on a corner and her jaws dropped recollecting a memory.

That was the corner she forced a kiss on Dax but it felt like a brief kiss. She was shouting at him as 'I am not scared of you.' And 'I don't fear you.' To Dax but not to prove she can kiss.

Feeling wronged and incensed for being tricked into a relationship, she noticed Dax going upstairs and followed him to his room grumpily.

"Dax Grant, you trick..." The rest of the words went down her throat staring at Dax who sealed her lips with his.

She was clueless about what to do when his lips brushed hers like tempting her to make the next move. Her breath stuck in her throat, her anger pushed behind the new emotions that were filling her heart.

Since she doesn't remember her first kiss, she really wanted to know how it feels. So her body moved on its accord and gently pressed on his lips.

She thought it was just going to be a peck on his lips but she started to feel it. His warm breath tickled her skin and his masculine scent was intoxicatingly causing her to close her eyes and enjoy the moment.

Dax had seen her reaction looking at a corner of the wall, he discerned she recollected some of the memories again or probably everything.

Hence he went upstairs so that they didn't start squabbling in front of his parents. He least wanted to upset them on his birthday.

He knew he shouldn't force a girl and it wasn't his style either. He just wanted to know if he could really kiss without remembering his first love. To his surprise, he didn't remember her but craved to kiss Tia.
