Early in the morning, Leo and Andre were running on their home treadmill in their workout gear.
"I'm gonna be away for a few days, so keep your eyes on the school. If you go to The Silent Ring again, you're gonna be in big trouble when I get back."
Andre added, "You gotta tell me what she's up to every day."
"No can do, you want me to be her stalker or what?" Having said that, Leo got a smack on the back of his head from his uncle. "I told you to protect her!"
Holding the back of his head, Leo winced in pain, "She doesn't need my protection, it's me who needs hers."
Andre, "You're hopeless. I'll get you a boxing coach when I get back."
Leo responded, "Even if I learn, I won’t be able to beat her."
Andre stopped running, hands on his hips, turning to look at his useless nephew, "Can you at least try to be a man?"
Leo shook his head.
Andre sighed, after all, this was his own nephew, he couldn't really beat him.
After that, Andre took him for a few more laps before heading home. When Mia woke up, she roamed around the house in her pajamas looking for Andre.
"Where's my hubby?"
The servant answered, "Right behind you."
Mia turned around to see her husband walking towards her with a smile. He was dressed in his workout gear, looking at her with a loving gaze.
"You're looking for me again?"
Mia pouted and walked over to hug Andre's waist, "I thought you left already, I didn't even get to see you off at the airport."
"After breakfast, I'll head to the airport."
Mia, "I want to see you off."
Andre smiled and agreed, "Alright, let's eat quickly then, you have class in the morning."
After breakfast, Leo got tasked with driving duty again.
In the back seat, the couple was being affectionate.
"Honey, you have to call me every day. Only men are allowed in the room."
Andre chuckled and wrapped his arm around his wife, "Sure."
Mia added, "If any girl asks for your contact, just say your wife doesn't allow it."
"Okay."
"Mmm. And, you can't get drunk when I'm not around, men are most likely to lose control when they're drunk. You once kissed me when you were drunk."
Andre suddenly remembered the first time he kissed her, it was when she was being noisy, he pinned her down and kissed her, and from then on, he was hooked.
Looking deeply into her eyes, Andre promised her, "I won't drink when I'm out."
"Good, you promised, I'll be checking in on you from time to time."
Andre nodded.
Leo, who was driving, felt like a third wheel. "What did I do to deserve you guys in my past life, that I ended up being your nephew in this life."
At the airport, Andre was ready for the security check.
Mia clung to her husband's arm, unable to let him go, "Honey, let's hug one more time."
Andre hugged his wife, "I'll be back in a few days, be good at home."
"Honey, a farewell kiss."
Andre's smile bloomed instantly, he lowered his head and gently kissed his wife's lips, taking only a brief taste at the airport. "Go home, I owe you all the kisses for these few days, I'll give them all back when I return."
Mia looked just like a little kitten at the time.
Just like every day when Andre went to work, she was always reluctant to let him leave, always gripping his trouser leg, only wishing he could stay by her side.
Leo couldn't stand it anymore.
