Leonica had fucking lied to his son about his existence! A spaceman, the fuck? When the hell did he beca fucking spaceman?! It was obvious that Leonica had hidden his existence from Ashely, masking it with ssick fairytale, about he being a spaceman. And just the thought of that alone, brought back the anger he had been feeling towards her in new waves.
Fucking forgiving her for Ashely's sake, because for Ashely's sake, he, without a doubt was going to fucking make her pay for this.
It was only fair to punish a woman like her, who had hid his existence from his own child.
The rest of the school day had flown by with Gabriel visibly upset by Ashely's speech, but it didn't mean he missed the way Ashely had continued to remain well mannered.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSurprisingly, despite how tacky Ashely's speech had sounded, it had scores the highest rating, along with a few more of the subject that they had taken, which made him cout with the best score for the day. "Okay, as promised, today's star, which is Ashely, gets the chance to receive a gift from our top shareholder." The children, most, If not all, stopped what they were doing and glanced at her.
What promise? What gift? The questions were clearly written on their face, making Harper gingerly mutter the word "Oh shit" as she recalled not tell either of them about the reward of coming out onto for today. "Teacher-" one of the student with ginger brown hair began but Harper swiftly hushed her and any other child than may have wanted to ask the squestion..
"School's over, go wait for your parents, or better yet, hang out with your friends, get a life while you're still young and lively." Turning to Ashely, she snapped her fingers. "Ashely's, chere." The young and confused male, despite hearing his teacher's words, glanced between her and his desk mate, Daisy, with puzzlement, before slowly moving to answer her.
"Congratulations on coming out top of the class, Mrs. Harper patted his head before stepping aside so he could see Gabriel who was waiting for him, hands tucked in the pocket of his grey coat. "Go claim your reward." Ashely hesitated, recalling the look of Gabriel's face after his speech, but seeing the warm 2. She led to Than Son smile on his face now, his hesitation faded away and he advanced.
"Hello Kind mister." He greeted with a smile.
He gesture was returned as Gabriel ruffled his hair with enough force to bend his head down." When would you quit callingthat, kid?" "Kid?" Ashely huffed, snapping his head away too quickly to notice Gabriel stealing several strands of his hair. "I'm four...and a half." He defended.
"You're still a kid," Gabriel stated, turning around to beckon Bill over.
Once again, Ashely was fuming too much, or at least pretending to be fuming, that he missed the whispers exchanged between Bill and his employer, along with the strands of hair passed along.
"Or would you prefer I addressed you by your name?" Dismissing his assistant, Gabriel turned back and address the child who wasn't even as tall as his waist.
Hands folded across his chest, stance somewhat reminding Gabriel of Leonica at the sthimself, Ashely voiced. "Of course " This earned a chuckle from Gabriel, one that he had tried desperately to fight away. "Fine, I'll address you by your nonce you addressby mine." He tabled. Ashely, finding no qualms in the task, wasted no tin grinning up at the taller man. uncle Gabriel!' "Fine..

"Good boy," Gabriel praised. "Keep this up and maybe someday, your daddy would cback to spend squality twith you." "Really?!" Ashely's head had jerked up faster than Gabriel could comprehend at the question. His eyes which were the sdark grey as his, shone with artificial stars.
"Would my daddy really cback?" "Of course." Gabriel replied with a thinned smile.
Hearing those words, the words he had longed for, for as long as possible, Ashely couldn't contain the excitement he feltland without meaning to, he began bouncing like a human ball. But his excitement didn't last long enough for him to enjoy it as a sudden thought, no rather, as he recalled his mother's words. Stopping his bouncing, he faced Gabriel with a narrow stare. "My daddy...he isn't going to the Luca to Their San bringa new mommy, right?"
His words caught Gabriel off guard, completely. All he could do was blink his eyes in utter confusion, before wordlessly asking. "What?"
"I don't want a new mommy." Ashely explained, no, rather he protested, just like he had done when Leonica told him all about the transition of having a new mother of Gabriel bechis new daddy.
