The Secret Of The Contract

"What!!!!..." Trey and Corbin were in sync. They can't believed he is that boy in the painting.

"How did you?..." Trey was lost for words. He don't know what he really wants to ask.

"At least you didn't break your promised". Corbin said. He came back to his senses now.

Jack gave out a deep sigh.

"That's why I ask grandfather to put something that will force me do what's on the contract in case I forgot about it in the future". He is revealing now the secret of the contract.

"You made that contract, but why?". Trey was so shocked to finally know the truth about the contract that bind them.

"Because I liked her from the first time I saw her". He simply said.

Jack remembered it all now. The time when they went to Russia with his grandfather. He said they will going to meet his good friend in there.

They went to Krasnodar that time. His grandfather took him to the park and they waited there. When he got bored he asked his grandfather if he can take a walk for a while and he allowed him.

A bodyguard is accompanying him from afar that's why he is not afraid to take a long walk. When he got tired he decided to take a rest on a bench under a tree. Then he heard a little girl crying behind it.

He asked her why is she crying and in between her sobs she told him the truth. He wants to laugh at her but he suppressed himself for doing that. He don't want her to get more upset.

For a five year old girl she's already worried about her future. She's worried that no one will take her as a wife. He don't even know if she already knows what a wife means. He was so amazed with her.

Because he thinks that she's very cute. He offered his self to be her future husband and she did accept him. He saw how happy she was. Jumping up and down like a rabbit and shouting that he's going to marry her when she grows up.

He was laughing at her reaction when she walk back again to him. He was sitting on a bench that time and she just suddenly sat on the ground and hugged his legs.

"Make a pinky swear to me". She said in her small voice.

"What's a pinky swear?". He asked her with confusion.

The little girl raised her small hand and sticks out her little pinky.

"Hook yours to mine". She said cutely.

Jack understood what she wants to do. He hook his long finger to her little finger and the little girl chants some words.

"When I grow up, you will marry me, if you break your promise, you'll end up in the deep blue sea". She said while looking at him.

"That's scary". He said to her.

"That's why you can't break your promise". She exclaimed cutely.

"Okay, I won't then". He said while smiling at her. Then he patted her head.

He was looking at the little girl's face when he realized that her eyes are very different from the others. He wants to ask her something when she suddenly got up.

"I forgot to tell grandpa I'm getting married". She said then quickly run off.

Jack laughed again. "She thought she's getting married already". He mumbled to himself while he was shaking his head with that thought on his mind.

He stayed there a few minutes more but the cute little girl didn't come back. He decided to go back to his grandfather.

Jack was almost near his grandfather when he saw an older man leaving.

"Who's he?". He asked as soon as he reached him.

"My friend and his grandaughter". He replied.

Jack is watching them leave. She noticed the little girl with him and he recognized her.

He sees how the little girl is crying her heart out and she's trying to drag her grandfather somewhere. The old man just followed her while holding her hand.

"Grandpa, how close are you?". He suddenly asked him.

"Very close..... I owe him three of my lifetime". He said in a casual way.

"Do you think I can marry his granddaughter when she grows up?". He asked him again.

Jack's grandfather was silent for a while but he is looking at him intensely.

"You're only twelve. Do you think you will not forget about her when you grow up". He said to young Jack.

"Then, make something that will force me to remember". He said directly to him.

His grandfather smiled at him but didn't say anything.

"I'm done, yehey!". Azalea shout for joy. She didn't took really an hour to cook their lunch.

Jack snaps back from daze because of his wife. She is shouting her happiness in the room after cooking.

He walks straight to the kitchen to see what's for their lunch.

Grilled meet and veggies with brown rice and sliced fruits plus chicken stew.

"Does it smells good". She asked him while smiling widely. She was waiting for his answer.

"It sure does". He answered.

But the truth is he doesn't care if it's good or not as long as his wife cooks it, he will eat it even if it's made of poison.

They set the table and the four of them eats lunch. Even though Jack's plan is to throw out Trey and Corbin outside Azalea ask them to stay. They did loved Azalea's home cooked meal.

After lunch Jack tried to help her with the dishes.

"Do you always do this?". He asked her casually.

"Do what?". Azalea was confused about his question.

"All this. Taking care of yourself and others". He explained what his questions meant.

"Oh... Yup... But not always, why?". She ask him in return.

"Nothing really. I was wondering if you want me to send some servants here". He answered her with full of concerns.

Jack felt pity for his wife. He is looking at her hands and he can see it's not as soft as Sue's hands. He can even feel how rough they are everytime he's holding her.

"No need I can handle everything even manual labors". She said proudly to him.

He just nod as a sign of okay. But in his mind he was thinking of pampering her to the extent that even lifting her fingers there will be a servant that will do that to her. But that will be an impossible task for him. He don't think he can make her stay still in one place. She's the type of a kinetic person. She loves to move a lot.

"Are you going back to your office after?". She ask him innocently.

"Why, do you want me to stay?". He didn't answered her directly. He wants to tease her.

"If I asked you to stay, will you stay?". She's testing him.

"Gladly... . We can stay at your room if you want". And he gave her a seductive and meaningful smile.

Azalea swallowed hard. She knows he is teasing her again. Although she loves the feeling of being near him she knows how busy he is.

"I'm just kidding!.....You need to go back to work. A lot of people are depending on you". She said with determination.

Trey and Corbin chuckles. Their Boss seems to lost his touch. Having a not so clingy wife is very new to him.
