Pop out a kid

Kris had never had a wet dream before. He knew that Tye told him about it before but in all of his 26 years, this is not supposed to be him. This type of thing does not happen to him! He groaned and ruffled his head. He got up and looked at the bed, thinking about what to do with it.

There was a sudden light knock on the door and Kris felt his heart skip a beat.

"Kris?" It was Collin. "Miss. Shen said you woke up but looked weird. Are you ok?"

Collin opened the door a bit but Kris shouted. "Don't come in!" Collin quickly closed the door.

"I--" Kris looked at the bed then at the door. "I'm fine. Just go down first, I'll be down soon."

"Ok."

Collin left and Kris quickly grabbed the sheets. He changed the sheets and his blanket from new ones in his closet. He tossed the old ones into the laundry basket. He went into the bathroom for another quick shower before heading down.

As he was coming down, he can hear the small chatter and laugh from Lena and his mom. He smiled. As he got closer to the kitchen he could smell something sweet baking. It was still early in the morning, how early did Lena get here?

Kris entered the kitchen and saw Lena and his mom happily kneading the dough. Lena had her hair tied up. She was wearing a casual shirt and a long thin pant. What caught Kris' eyes was the apron she was wearing. It was a cute pink bunny apron. It looked nice on her.

"Oh, you're awake? I was worried you would kick Lena out the door if she woke you up." Madam Li spoke.

"I was already awake before she came in." Kris lied and Lena just looked at him. She did not say anything.

Kris walked over to where Collin was sitting down, eating something. He pulled up a stool and sat down too.

"Do you want some bread? We are almost done with them and they only take half an hour to bake." Madam Li asked.

Kris looked at his mom and then at Lena. Somehow, he kept avoiding her eyes. "No. Collin and I have many things to do today, we're leaving now."

"Huh?" Collin still had a piece of dessert stuff in his mouth. 'We are leaving now?!'

Collin was puzzled. Kris said that they had to wait till Monday before they had more stuff to do. He was only here to deliver the revision of the Agato land deal to Kris. Why are they suddenly leaving now? He still wants to eat some bread…

Lena could tell that Collin still wanted to eat more stuff. "I can deliver some bread later to you guys before I head home."

"No." Kris stood up from his chair. He immediately rejected the offer. He doesn't want to see any more of her today, tomorrow, or the next few days!

Madam Li continue to knead the dough and Lena kept pointing to her left ear. Kris knew that she was hinting that he needed to wear the earphones but all that was in his mind was the dream. The way she talked to his ear and ….

Kris nudged Collin and he stood up too. Kris left first without any words. Collin said his goodbyes to Lena and Madam Li then left.

"Did he wake up on the wrong side of the bed today?" Lena mumbled.

"Aiya… don't you mind him. He is always like that." Madam Li replied. "So… you have been to his office before?" Madam Li was curious when Lena said she was going to drop some off.

Lena got stumped. 'Oh yeah… Madam Li has weird thoughts about them.' She should be more careful about how she speaks to her.

"Ah no. But the Li company is just on the way so I wouldn't have not mind dropping some off. After all, you are helping me with them."

"You are such a good daughter. I wished my son was the same. You are here trying to bake some dessert for your parents when they come back home and all my son knows is how to work."

Lena tried to make Madam Li feel happy too. "I am pretty sure he is good too." 'Like hell he is!'

They finished kneading the dough and rolling them. As they put them into the oven, Lena could feel that Madam Li was a good mother.

"You know… last year… he gave me a dog. What kind of mom needs a dog? More like he needs a dog."

Lena laughed sweetly. "Do you not like dogs?"

"I am allergic to dogs. And the year before that, he bought me a private jet. Does he know that I don't leave this city at all?"

"Well, at least he is trying, right? I would love a jet to myself, but that is us young ones."

Lena sat down on the stool and Madam Li turned on the timer.

"Madam Li, if you are allergic to dogs and don't travel much, what kind of gift would you like?"

See! So quick already and Lena was able to ask the question. She was a professional after all.

"Gift? From my son? Of course, grandchildren!"

Lena laughed again. "Aigoo… your birthday is soon is it not? He's not going to pop out a kid in a few weeks."

Madam Li laughed too but then sighed deeply afterward. "But out of everything, if I could choose, I would just really want to hug my son."

Lena felt that Madam Li was feeling down. "I have a friend that I have not seen in a while. I would want to hug him too." She tried to lighten the mood though obviously, her situation was not as deep as Madam Li's.

"Miss. Shen is a good person. You will get to see him soon." Madam Li sat on the stool with Lena. "I heard you are engaged?"

"Hmm?" Madam Li must be talking about the situation during Elder Zhao's birthday party. "I am not engaged. But you know, parents will always be looking." Lena poured herself some juice from the table.

"That's good! Are you still a virgin?"

Lena choked on her drink. She pounded her chest not because she needed it, but to turn off the microphone there so Kris would not hear the conversation.
