Love You Can’t Say

When I woke up again, it was already dawn. And Dennis was not by my side.

After washing up, I went directly to the baby’s room. As I thought, Dennis was sleeping in the babysitter bed next to Clarie Bear.

The dad and the little fella both were sleeping very soundly at the moment. Looking at the dark circles under Dennis’s eyes, I could tell that he probably hadn’t slept well last night.

The doorbell kept ringing downstairs, I went downstairs and opened the door, it was no one else other than Luna.

I was a little irritated when I saw her, “Ms. Luna, you came here so early. Are you here for Dennis?”

Hearing my hoarse voice, Luna said worriedly, “Have you caught a cold? Did you get cold in the pool last night, did you take any medicine?”

I…

What was with all these questions?

“Thank you, Ms. Luna, for your concern. I’m alright. What’s brought you here so early? Dennis is still resting, you may have to wait for a little.”

I spoke, suppressing the displeasure in my heart, and motioned her to wait in the pantry.

She didn’t seem to have noticed my displeasure. She spoke with a smile on her face, “Clarie Bear is still young, and she cries when she’s hungry at night. After all, you and Dennis are young and don’t have much experience in taking care of infants. I have brought two of the best sitters over here – Not only can they take care of your health, but also help you take care of the baby, this way you guys won’t be so tired at night.”

There were two middle-aged women behind her. They looked kind and nice. I pursed my lips, looked at Luna, and said, “Ms. Luna, you don’t have to do all these.”This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

She didn’t listen to me at all and told the two sitters about Clarie Bear’s situation. Then she looked at the kitchen and saw something was cooking in a pot.

She hurriedly said, ‘Have you not had breakfast yet? I came in just in time. Let me make something for you, and you can also taste my cooking.”

With that said, Luna had already entered the kitchen.

I…

These felt all weird – She wouldn’t have come to us if she hadn’t wanted something from us.

But it seemed that nothing I said to Luna was of any use. This minute she told me what to eat for good health. The next, she taught me how to take care of my baby without getting tired.

She didn’t seem to care about my aloofness at all – In fact, she just ignored it directly.

I didn’t say anything anymore. Half an hour later, she made a table of breakfast and told me to have a try immediately.

Then she looked at the babysitters and said, “Take a look around the house and start cleaning first, please.”

After that, Luna looked at me again and said, “You are breastfeeding now, you should consume more foods with high proteins.”

When Dennis got up, seeing a few more people in the villa, he frowned slightly, “What’s going on?”

Luna answered before I could, “I brought them here. You and Clara are young and you need to get enough sleep at night. With these sitters, at least you can rest assured that the baby is well taken care of at night. This way, you can also have the energy to do other things. It’s all about keeping you two’s routines normal and healthy.”

Dennis glanced at the sitters who were getting busy in the villa, pursed his lips, but didn’t comment.

Looking at Luna, he said, “Ms. Luna, we appreciate this.”

“My pleasure!” Luna was very happy to see that Dennis didn’t refuse her gesture of kindness.

Then she enthusiastically asked Dennis to taste the breakfast she had made. I was a little confused – Dennis seemed to be fine with Luna trying to approach us closer. He didn’t seem annoyed by these.

The whole morning, Luna had been in the villa, either ordering the two sitters to clean up the house, or she was with Clarie Bear in the nursery room.

Dennis was busy with work. I had nothing to do, so I went ahead to sit in the study.

Seeing that I had been staying in the study, he looked back at me and raised his eyebrows, “Is there anything on your mind, babe?”

I put down the book in my hand, looked at him, and said, “Do you think there is something wrong with Luna, all this time?”

He took a look at the files on the computer and raised his eyebrows, “What do you think it is, babe?”

“Why did she suddenly invite us to the L Community for dinner? And why did she come to our house early in the morning to mind our housework? She even brought over two sitters, and went into the kitchen to cook for us.” Not even ordinary friends would do so – No one would be like this!

He put aside what he was doing, walked towards me, squatted beside my knees, looked at me with a smile, and said, “Isn’t this nice of her, though?”

I shook my head, “No, not at all!”

He took my hand, kissed it, and said, “Perhaps she is just trying to make up for her guilt against you?”

“Guilt?” I was speechless. “If she was guilty, she wouldn’t have done those things before.”

I looked at him and said seriously, “Dennis, I don’t care what it takes, but you have to figure out a way to stop Luna from coming back to our house. The new year is only a few days away, we should find a time to visit the cemetery, to see Grandpa George and my grandma. And Diana, too – We should take Clarie Bear to see her.”

He got up, pulled me into his arms, his voice was low and restrained, “Babe, we should go. But we shouldn’t bring Clarie Bear with us yet. She is still too young, and the cemetery is a heavy environment, after all. She is only a few months old, I don’t think it’s a good idea.”

I paused, and then nodded, “Makes sense. When are we going?”

“Tomorrow!” He spoke. And saying so, he already bowed his head and kissed me.

At the moment, Luna happened to come in with the baby in her arms. She tutted – But she seemed to be laughing, “It seems that we are not here at the right time. Clarie Bear and I will give you two some privacy.”

Dennis raised his eyes and looked at her with ease, “Is Clarie Bear hungry?”

Luna nodded, smiled, and said, “She was humming just now and didn’t want to have formula milk. I figure that she is yearning for breast milk, so I take her to you.”

Dennis took Clarie Bear from her and handed her into my arms, “Babe, you should go and feed her.”

Then I went out of the study with Luna.

I kept having a feeling that Dennis was hiding something from me, but I couldn’t figure out what it was specifically at the moment.

By the time I was done feeding Clarie and taking her out of the study, Luna was gone. Dennis was on the phone in the hall, and it sounded like he was calling Toby to arrange work.

When he saw me, he simply explained a few more words and hung up. He skillfully took Clarie Bear from my hands, looked at me, and said, “What would you like to have for dinner, babe?”

I held his hand and said in a shallow voice, “Surprise me!”

Having two sitters at home seemed to have made things easier. Dennis brought Clarie Bear everywhere he went during the day. And the sitters took care of her at night. So my life became extraordinarily peaceful and beautiful.

Recently, I had gained a lot of weight. It was the end of the year, the weather in Newton Town gradually started to warm up. Newton Town was in the south, and it began to heat up in February.

On New Year’s Eve, both Luis and Alex came to T Villas. There were more people in the villa, and it suddenly became very lively.

Leo called and said that he wanted me to pick him up at the airport. Dennis happened to be by my side, so I passed him the phone.

After Dennis had answered the phone, he said with a calm expression, “Go, babe. But stay safe on your way!”

I squinted my eyes, looked at him, and said, “What did Leo say to you? What a surprise that you would let me go!”

He laughed, “Mr. Kennedy has come with Leo, and he specifically asked for you. Are you sure you can handle the family affairs? I would love to go with you, though.”
