Aiden returns to his home in Washington DC. He had just returned with the bullets of their enemies. Without Aiden knowing, the enemy turned out to put a sniper. Fortunately, Ivander contacted him so he knew their tactics and could avoid the sniper shots.
He was able to return to his residence in Washington DC because Ivander managed to destroy the enemy's information technology system. Aiden believes his enemies are currently busy overcoming all conflicts in their leadership. Even some entrepreneurs are affected by this, making them have to deal with their financial resources.
Aiden held onto his injured arm. The wound that previously turned back open and bleed. Grey initially wants to take his boss to the hospital, but Aiden refuses. He asked Grey to take him home.
The time has shown at 11 pm, the atmosphere in the house is very quiet. He also stepped foot into his bedroom. Fressia who saw her master back, walked over immediately.
"Master," said Fressia.
"You haven't slept?" ask Aiden.
"No, sir," Fressia saw that Aiden was injured because his clothes had blood stains, there were even stains that still looked wet.
"I help you, sir," said Fressia, who then held Aiden's arm and helped him.
After delivering Aiden into the bedroom, Fressia intends to get out.
"Wait a minute, where are you going" Aiden ordered.
The man went into the bathroom to clean himself and slightly cleaned his wound. He's used to getting hurt, but this time why it hurts more than usual.
Fressia remained standing by the bedroom door, waiting for Aiden to come out of the bathroom. Aiden came out of the bathroom wearing only shorts and no tops at all.
Fressia could see a bandage wrapped around one part of the arm and looked wet by the directional stain.
"Master ...," said Fressia.
"Help me change this bandage" Aiden asked.
Fressia walked over after picking up the medicine box in the closet. He approached Aiden who was sitting on the sofa, he sat next to his master. Fressia slowly opened the old bandage, then cleaned it and re-wrapped it with a new bandage. Fressia shook her head when she saw that Aiden's injuries were not only to her hand, but both.
Fressia moved her seat to treat the wound on the other arm, then she lifted her head and looked at Aiden.
"Sir, last night I tried to contact you via mobile phone."
Aiden knitted his eyebrows together because Fressia had never contacted him since the first time he gave the babysitter a cell phone.
"Did something happen?" ask Aiden.
"Tristan has a high fever, up to 39.8 degrees. I was worried about her and intended to contact Mister to help bring her to the hospital," Fressia replied.
"Why don't you call Ivan or Grey?" ask Aiden again.
"I tried, but I couldn't" Fressia replied.
Aiden rough mendesah. If he had left Tristan with his family in New York City, it would not have happened. Tristan will always get their attention. Aiden believes Dad Anthony and Mom Kimberly will take care of him much better than he does.
However, both of his parents did not know about Tristan. Aiden did hide Tristan's whereabouts until he managed to find Tristan's mother.
"It's done" said Fressia then put all the medical equipment in the box and put it back in the closet.
"I'm sorry to go out, sir."
Fressia came out of Aiden's bedroom. He went back to his own bedroom. While Aiden was laying down his body on the bed, now he was thinking, sighing violently, then closed his eyes.
*****
The next morning, the,
Aiden approached the dining table and sat down with his son, Tristan, at the dinner table. Right next to Tristan, there was already Fressia who was going to help her son to eat.
"Good morning" Aiden said to Tristan, wiping the head of his son.
"Dad! Daddy's home yet?!" Tristan's face looked very enthusiastic. He even got up from his seat and approached Aiden and gave the man a hug.
"You've been healed?" ask Aiden.
"Already, Aunty Fressia is taking care of me, I'm definitely cured. But if Daddy is with me, then I will definitely not get sick" Tristan said in a sad tone.
Tristan lifted his head then looked at his father's sharp eyes. Honestly, Tristan misses Aiden's presence by his side. He wanted Aiden's immense care and affection for him.
"Dad, doesn't Daddy love me?" ask Tristan.
"What do you mean ask that? Of course Daddy loves you" replied Aiden.
"Why is Daddy rarely home? Why did Daddy never accompany me, just play or accompany me to sleep?" tristan asked with a sad look.
"Tristan, Daddy ....,"
"Daddy want to say again that Daddy's busy? Is all Daddy's work more important than Tristan's? Or is it better that Tristan never existed, so it won't interfere with Daddy's busyness?"
"Tristann!!" aiden's voice was slightly raised. He did not like Tristan's words.
"Master," Fressia's call seemed to resuscitate Aiden. His face immediately softened again although still with his sharp gaze.
"Sorry, sweetheart. Forgive Daddy. Daddy doesn't like you to say things like that" Aiden doesn't like when anyone talks about death. He knows what it's like to lose a loved one and it hurts, especially if the death was tragic.
"Sir, I'm sorry if I was presumptuous to say this. But you better take a little time for Tristan. Suppose by taking him to school, accompanying him to play, or just accompanying him to sleep. He won't feel like losing your figure, sir."
Aiden breathed slowly. He did focus all his thoughts on work, until he considered that Tristan was enough with the existence of a nanny at this time.
After he finished eating, Aiden rushed into his study. Today he did not go to the Anlee Group Company in Washington because he felt he was still not too fit, especially with injuries on both arms. He decided to work from home.
In the afternoon, he came out of his study. It just so happened that it was Saturday, so Tristan was out of school. His son was seen being with his nanny, Fessia.
The sound of laughter Aiden could hear, making him walk towards the living room area. Aiden stood not far away and watched the two. He saw how the two looked so close. It seems true, that Tristan craves the attention, love and warmth of a family, but ...
Where are you? - Inner Aiden.
