Mina looked out the window as the car drove to the airport. She was leaving for France with Naarah, not Aaron. She should be happy but she couldn't bring herself to feel that.
She could remember the last dinner they had together; it was something she wouldn't forget about. Aaron called their baby theirs. She should have been annoyed or something closer to angry, but she broke down in tears. She subconsciously rubbed her baby bump—a mini version of her and Aaron. Who will the baby resemble? She flinched when she felt a hand on her thigh. She looked up to see Aaron's gaze on the road.
She knew he wasn't comfortable about her going back to France, and this time, not a week. She noticed how sleepless he had become these couple of days. He was trying to prove himself; he was worth being there for her, and she knew it.
The airport came into view, and a lump raised in her throat, she was leaving. Leaving her home country, a country that held memories she wished she never experienced.
" We are here," Aaron said clearing his throat.
He got out of the car to open the door for her which she greeted with a light smile. She noticed him pausing, Mina got out of the car with the help of Aaron.
" Take care of her Naarah, should anything happen to her and the baby, you will repay with your life and I mean it. " Aaron threatened his cousin.
" Geez, I'm your cousin and she is my best friend. How can you be rude." Naarah exclaimed.
Aaron rolled his eyes at her before facing Mina, his jaw tightened as he looked at her. He hasn't gotten time to have a clear look at her in these past days. Pregnancy suits her. He released his clenched fist before planting a kiss on her forehead before her lips. A light kiss led to a passionate one. Both of them didn't want to let go. Mina wrapped her hands around his neck whilst Aaron pulled her closer.
She sneaked her fingers into her hair, a moan escaped her mouth when Aaron palmed her breast.
" Goodness, we are at the airport," Naarah yelled.
" Get a room you both. " She said before leaving them.
Mina pulled away from the kiss, her face reddened by Naarah's words.
How can she forget herself, they nearly made out in public. She heard a chuckle.
Aaron looked down on her;
" You are cute when you blush, princess."
" Goodbye," she said pulling away.
Aaron held her wrist before she could leave; he cupped her face.
"I'm going to miss you; both of you," he said as he looked at her baby bump.
" I'm going to..... miss you too," Mina murmured
Aaron groaned, why was he horny from just hearing this. Mina has never told him before.
" Can I call you, I mean when you are less busy? " he asked.
She was leaving but he couldn't let go of her. If he wanted information about her then he could get it, but he wanted to respect her.
" You can. I will be expecting your call."
'I love you.' Mina's inner thought said.
She flinched when she heard. She had to pull herself away from him. She took in a deep breath before dragging her suitcase away. It was good she was leaving. How can she think about something like that? How would he react if she knew what just crossed her mind?
