Be Awkward.

"I want ... Hehehe ... ".

"Then let's go!" After that Zian pulled Sophia's hand towards Michael's car which was not far from the security post.

However, Sophia didn't realize that Zian had come with Michael.

Zian opened the back door of the car with Sophia's help, after which the two of them got into the car and sat quietly in the driver's seat.

"Honey, where are we going?". Asked Sophia while pinching his soft cheeks.

"Uncle said we are going to the zoo". Zian replied while looking at his uncle who was sitting like a statue in the driver's seat.

Sophia turned her head towards the front, at that moment her heart seemed to jump from its place. She still knows Michael very well even from behind. The person she was avoiding was in front of her.

"Oh my gosh... Why didn't I think of it, if Zian couldn't have come here alone. Now I want to run but I can't bear to ruin his sweet smile". Sophia thought awkwardly.

Meanwhile, at the driver's seat a pair of dark and clear eyes, with high cheekbones accentuating the shape of his face, thin lips forming a charming smile, looked into the rearview mirror which showed her sweet woman's face.

He was calm even though he realized that Sophia was uncomfortable, but this time he wanted to be selfish because he couldn't hold back his longing anymore. Because there is happiness in his heart when he sees Sophia.

"Shopia... Sorry that I'm happy for your inconvenience, your presence is a vitamin for my head. So please don't avoid me anymore!". Michael thought.

Awkwardness ensued in the car, after which Sophia pretended to invite Zian to chat so as not to look nervous and awkward anymore.

To get rid of the awkwardness, Michael immediately drove his car to the zoo.

Along the way, Sophia kept herself busy with Zian. Meanwhile, Michael focused on driving the car. However, he occasionally glanced at Sophia from the front mirror.

It didn't take long, they finally arrived at the zoo. The atmosphere in the zoo wasn't so crowded that Michael could breathe a sigh of relief that Zian wouldn't be upset to see the crowds.

"Wow... We finally arrived". Sophia said while pinching Zian's cheek.

"Yes Auntie!" Zian said, widening his smile.

"Khem...". Michael cleared his throat because he felt ignored by Zian and Sophia.

Zian and Sophia turned to Michael with astonished expressions.

"What's wrong uncle?" Zian asked while blinking his eyes.

"It's time for us to enter!" Michael replied nervously.

"Yes." Zian turned his head back to Sophia who had been holding back his awkwardness. "Come on, Auntie!".

"Come on!". Sophia said while smiling excitedly in front of Zian.

After that, the three of them entered the zoo.

The three of them spent time at the zoo.

Michael and Zian were free to mingle, laugh and play. Because no one knows that they are part of the W Group family.

Without realizing it, it was already evening. An exhausted Zian fell asleep in Michael's arms. For today, Sophia allowed Michael to walk quietly beside her, even having spent half a day with her.

Michael couldn't hide his happiness, because the long awaited moment had finally arrived.

"Shopia....!".

"Yes?". Sophia answered by continuing to look straight ahead.

"Don't you feel that now we are like a happy little family?" Michael asked.

"Not". replied Sophia coldly.

Michael was silent when Sophia didn't really respond to what he said, but he kept glancing at Sophia's face as if he was afraid that Sophia would suddenly disappear from his sight.

"If I could stop time right now, I would do it and stay this close to Sophia!" Michael thought.

After muttering, Michael occasionally glanced back at Sophia. Michael still didn't think that beside him was Sophia. However, Sophia's demeanor was so quiet that Michael didn't know what to say.

Actually, Sophia also didn't know what to say because she felt nervous and had mixed feelings, which was why she preferred to remain silent.

When they were about to get into the car, suddenly Sophia opened her mouth and said, "Take Zian home, he is tired and I will go home alone!".

Michael's face darkened when he heard Sophia's words.

"I'll take you..."

Hearing Michael's words, Sophia felt snow falling nearby so she started to get cold. But she didn't want to go home with Michael. She had to keep her distance from Michael as much as possible.

"Thank you, I can do it myself!". Sophia said while showing her respect.

However, Michael paid no heed to Sophia's words.

After making sure Zian was safe in the car, Michael turned his head back to Sophia.

"Because I brought you here, then I will take you home!".

Michael's words sounded terrible so that Sophia felt goosebumps because she knew the character of this man in front of her.

"Just this once!" Michael begged desperately because he couldn't possibly calm down before making sure Sophia got home safely.

Sophia finally relented and got into the car obediently. However, throughout the journey they were silent like strangers until Sophia arrived at the house that she had rented.
