Chapter 53

Wait a minute...

"Honey, could it be that you forced us to sleep because you want to surprise us with these gifts?"

"O- Of course not. I just want you to sleep so that you will not be tired later."

She denied the accusation, but it was clear from her blushing cheeks that I was right. She was definitely forcing us to sleep in order to surprise us with this.

"Thanks, honey. I like them."

"Wear them first. I can return it if it doesn't suit you." She tried to hide her smile.

I hesitated because my feet were full of dust. I had helped cut some wood earlier. I didn't have time to wash my feet.

Anyway, when I saw that Penelope was waiting for me to put them on, I decided to let go of my hesitation.

"They fit perfectly," I said after putting them on.

Nike: Air Force One had a nice aesthetic. The ones I wore were classic all white. That was one of the reasons I hesitated to wear them.

There are many shoes that I have dreamed of buying. Maybe in this lifetime I will have the chance to buy some of them.

Air Jordan 1, Nike Hyperdunk Kobe, Lebron 8... Hey, most of them are named after basketball players! Wow! What an amazing discovery~

"It's nice to see the shoes fit you." She nodded in satisfaction.

"By the way, I got you something too."

"Huh?" She was surprised when she realized that I had a present for her as well.

Hehe, she thought I forgot her, what a dum dum. She bought gifts for us, but she didn't have any for herself. Of course, it was my duty to surprise her with a gift.

"For me?"

"Hm, that's right."

I opened the closet and took out a box for her.

"You can open it if you like."

"Okay." She was excited to know she had her own present.

When she opened the box, her excited face turned red with embarrassment.

She looked at me with a blushing face.

"Keith Castillo!"

She gritted her teeth and I chuckled. I bet she wanted to say something. Unfortunately, the two kids were with us and she couldn't say anything bad.

"Did you like them?" I teased her.

"You!"

She had no choice but to close the box.

"Mommy? What's your present, can I see it?"

"N- No, sweetheart." Penelope immediately put the box back in the closet. She glared at me and asked for my help in getting Sophia's attention.

"But why?"

"Well, you see Sophia," I approached Sophia and carried her.

"Do you want to go outside? Your grandparents are cooking delicious roasted chicken!" I immediately redirect her attention to other things.

"Really? Then let's go! Dajjy, I want to see the cooking!" She gets excited.

"Okay. Roman, let's go outside. Let's go play with your cousins."

"Okay, Dad."

Roman had already finished solving the Rubik's Cube. When he heard he could play with his cousins, Roman tool out his yo-yo and Beyblade.

As I walked away, I could feel my wife glaring at me with resentment.

The contents of the box were actually quite simple. It was lingerie, sexy lingerie. Inappropriate for the children to see.

When Simeon decided to buy equipment for the chicken coop, he let me follow him into the town. With the opportunity in my hands, I went to a lingerie store and bought two sets for my wife.

Since I usually see my wife without clothes, I knew she didn't have any nice underwear these years. Instead of buying things for herself, she decided to buy things for our children. Not that I blame her, I didn't have a good pair of boxers either...

So I decided to give her underwear this time. I think it's worth it... I'm excited to see my wife wearing them. Sheesh, my blood is boiling.

When we came out of the house, we saw my in-laws roasting chickens.

The children watched them cooking, salivating at the smell of roasted chickens. Unfortunately, Alberto and Corazon know that once they give the children a piece of chicken, they will ask for more. They might as well wait until New Year's Eve.

"Grandma!"

"Aww, how's my sweet granddaughter?"

"Hehe."

Living in the province for a week, I could see that my in-laws loved Sophia very much. My daughter is articulate for her age. She knew how to praise people.

"Grandma, is it just me, or are you getting bweautiful?"

"Fufu, this child."

You see? What did I tell you? My daughter knows how to flatter people.

As I was helping my in-laws roast chickens, we heard the sound of firecrackers from our neighbor.

The kids were curious about the firecrackers and went over.

Roman and Sophia wanted to see them too.

"Roman, make sure you keep Sophia away from the firecrackers. Do you understand?"

"Yes, Dad."

The brother and sister joined in the fun and watched the firecrackers explode.

Then my wife came out of the house and approached us. It appeared that she had hidden the box in a safe place, somewhere the children would never find. She was still staring at me, but oh well, it was worth it to see her blush.

Penelope's sisters and brothers began to arrive one by one to help prepare the food.

Simeon had bought firecrackers as well and he would light them at midnight, right on New Year.
