Trial Marriage Husband : I Am CEO's Plaything

That night, the moonlight came in through Lisa's slightly open curtain. Thanks to the air conditioner she had deliberately turned on earlier, her room temperature was cool. This summer was so hot even though the sky had turned dark. 

Several fairy tale books lay scattered on the floor. And the smell of eucalyptus oil wafted from every corner of the room. On the bed, the figure of a sleeping boy could be seen curling up under the blanket. Meanwhile, the woman sat at the end of the bed stroking her son's hair. 

When Lisa was sure that her child was still inside the dreamland, she slightly lowered her head and kissed the boy's forehead. 

"William, are you still sleeping?" Vira asked when she heard the bedroom door being opened. The woman's eyes were still focused on the screen of her cellphone. She still couldn't believe that the boy managed to win the game!

Lisa cleared her throat and sat next to Vira. The woman rested her head on the armrest and turned on the screen of her phone. Since then, even though she was busy taking care of William and others, her thoughts drifted away to the clear blue eyed man.

Is he okay? Has he eaten tonight? What is he doing now? 

Various questions kept popping up in her head. At first, Lisa ignored the questions and assumed that Dani had taken care of everything. But without realizing it, her thumb had already pressed Oscar's number.

Lisa: How is your hand? Are you feeling good?

She thought that Oscar might've fallen asleep thanks to the anesthetic that might still be in his body. But it turns out that only a few minutes later, her cell phone screen lights up and shows a reply from the man.

Oscar: It's fine. You don't have to worry too much.

Lisa: That's good then. Tomorrow, I will go to the hospital to visit you. But I don't know if I can invite William or not.

Oscar: Okay.

About half an hour later, Lisa slowly opened the door to her room. Her heart felt so warm when she saw her son was still fast asleep. His small body was no longer covered by the blanket and his sleeping position had slumped from earlier.

*** 

The next morning, around 4 o'clock, Lisa stepped out of the room limply. Her hair looked disheveled and her eyes were puffy from lack of sleep. Last night, the woman couldn't sleep well because the boy's legs kept kicking her stomach. Not to mention his little hand often moved on its own and slapped her cheek.

Finally, she was struggling in front of her cell phone's screen all night. She decided to look for an easy and quick chicken porridge recipe. For some reason, perhaps since she still felt guilty, Lisa wanted to make an easy meal for Oscar.

According to the instructions she read on the internet, Lisa stirred the porridge for an hour. When the woman felt the porridge was a little thick, she turned off the heat and left it on the stove for a while. Her attention was then turned to the other pot which was still boiling the chicken stock.

After all the processes were completed and the chicken porridge emitted an aroma that could make her stomach churn, the woman put it inside a medium-sized container. The plan was that Lisa would stop by the hospital for a while to deliver the chicken porridge before going to the office.

"Lisa, are you awake?"

She looked up and saw Vira walking towards her while rubbing her eyes. The woman's hair looked messy, almost like a bird's nest. Then she sat on the dining chair and closed her eyes again.

Lisa cleared her throat, "I'll just wake up William first."

Ten minutes later, the small dining room was filled with three sleepy humans. In front of them were plates containing white rice from the porridge and an omelet. 

Since it was still early, William had not made any sound. Unlike yesterday, the boy looked like he was still not one hundred percent conscious. Often his eyes were closed and his head fell back.

"Eh? Who will that be for later?" Vira asked curiously. Her sleepy feeling just disappeared when she saw the porridge next to Lisa. 

Lisa, who was busy panning for her child because the boy didn't want to eat alone, turned her head for a moment. 

"It's for me. I'm too lazy to get out of the office this afternoon. It's hot, so it'll be nice to just eat and chill in the office!" 

Lisa had known Vira long enough to understand that she wouldn't let her live until she answered the truth. But she didn't want the woman to speculate strangely or think that she was dating another man.

However, Vira has also known Lisa long enough to know that she is lying. Yesterday, she already knew that Oscar was actually not working in Switzerland. She was just too shocked to hear Lisa's story that she didn't notice it.

"Oh, I see… I thought you brought the food for Mr. Oscar."

"N-no!!" Lisa replied nervously. "What are you talking about? Hurry up and eat, you'll be late for work!"

She had seen the boy giving her a suspicious look. Instead of seeing her face exploding from the heat that warmed her cheeks, the woman decided to quickly leave the dining table.

After breakfast and shower, Lisa drove William to his school. Since parents or anyone else were strictly forbidden to walk their child inside, Lisa stopped right in front of the school's gate. 

The atmosphere that morning looks bustling. There were several crying sounds from the children who were still fussy, and the sound of laughter that was able to make Lisa smile. Several parents escorted their children to the front of the gate just like her. And several teachers were seen standing in front, ready to welcome their students.

"Dear William, you must be a smart and obedient boy at school. Listen to what your teacher has to say, don't be naughty. After school, Mama will take you to visit Papa at the hospital, okay?"

Lisa crouched down in front of William and straightened the boy's uniform. She dropped a warm kiss on the boy's cheek and forehead. Since then, her lips have not stopped saying what her child should do later in class.

"And yes, don't let anyone else pick you up later, okay! Mama will pick you here.. So if there is a stranger who wants to pick you up, you have to immediately refuse and tell your teacher."
