Chapter 402 - Distance Part 2

Moira is driving the car out of the Villa. It will be a new year soon and she suggested that she will help Dmitri and Ellen buy some ingredients. They are using a four-by-four pick-up truck to gather ingredients for their stocks and new year celebration. It was a long vacation indeed.

"Do we have fireworks?" Ellen asked.

"Yes. Andel provides a couple of it."

"That's fantastic. I will prepare the best finger-food that is perfect for our New Year wine."

"I will prepare the pork brisk." Dmitri murmured and started taking notes on the ingredients that they needed. "What does Andromeda want to eat?"

"I think she's eating anything now," Moira said.

"We need more vegetables for their b.r.e.a.s.tfeeding and more on sea-food for the soup. Clamshells will be better."

They reached the wet market with full of fresh sea-foods and meat. Ellen looked happy as she looked around and check everything. She wanted good quality. Dmitri and Ellen are good at choosing ingredients and then they are precise and very meticulous on interviewing on where it came from and other stuff.

Moira doesn't like the smell of the wet market but she likes the view of seeing alive crabs and shrimps and fishes. If she would cook for Alanis, she will just endure the stink of the market. But anyway, she's just a driver so she didn't need to touch anything.

"Let's go to the grocery store," Ellen said and gave her the list.

"Let's go together or else Andel will kill me."

"Nah, I am fine," Ellen told her.

Ellen goes on her own as they split the list of things that they are going to buy. The others had asked a few things and they bought what they needed. She happened to bump to Dmitri, and she exhaled.

"D, you think that I would kill one of our family?"

Dmitri continued choosing the brands of milk.

"Why do you ask?"

"It's because Freya has been distant and then she's like telling me not to kill her babies and her. Which is—I would never do it. I would never kill the babies no matter what she did."

"I think it's bad." She groaned and throw her head back. "This is complicated."

"Whatever Freya sees, Andy will give a solution to it."

"But it will keep happening." She insisted. Dmitri patted her head.

"Don't worry my niece. Everything will be alright. Trust Dragon."

Moira groaned and nodded. She should trust Dragon then.

"Guys, I am done," Ellen said.

"I still need to buy a condom for James," Moira said. Ellen laughed.

"You always buy a condom for him."

"It suddenly feels like my duty. Even Stanley needed it." Moira said. "What is his size?" She asked Ellen. Ellen shrugged.

"XL," Dmitri told and they laughed.

Ellen wanted to roll on the floor and Dmitri looked around and caught a few people catching them laughing.

So, when they reached the counter, Moira started checking the Durex with an invisible condom and she asked Dmitri and Ellen. They nodded and bought the boys lots of condoms.

They arrived at the house and they put all the groceries over the counter and Moira took the paper bag of condoms. The boys are gathered in the living room since their babies are in their bedrooms.

"Okay! Now I am going to distribute the protection." She gave two boxes to Stanley. "I didn't know your size, so I took the smallest." She winked at him.

"Hey! I need XL!" Stanley complained and he checked the size. "Oh."

"Hey, do not give me XS," Steven complained before he was given a condom. "I am XL, dude. Do you want to see it?"

"Eww! No!" She threw his condom to his chest and gave another to James who thumbs up. "I am just wondering if you guys have the same sizes of d.i.c.ks." Moira scratched her chin.

"Hey, we are not average," James told her. They looked at Alanis who has his legs crossed and reading something. "Al, what's your size?" James asked. Moira flushed.

"Is it the Durex?" He asked.

"Yeah." Steven grinned.

"I usually use XXL." He told and Moira run to him and covered his mouth.

The boys gaped at him.

"Oh, what's with condoms," Andel asked as he took one and checked the sizes. "Wow, you guys are using seven inches—"

"Shut up!" Moira scolded him.

"Why are you covering his mouth?" Andel asked. Moira pulled away from her hand and exhaled.

"That's because Alanis is using an XXL condom while the guys are using XL," Andy said as she sat over her husband's lap.

"What's with the condom?" Freya asked and she glared at Steven who hid the condom. "Whom are you going to use it?" She asked in a deep raging voice.

"To you, of course," Steven told and he watched as Freya's eyebrows rose.

"I just give birth to your sons!"

"It's a reserve for next year." Steven is completely under Freya. "Babe, it's for you."

She confiscates the condoms and gave it to James.

"That's for our—" Steven complained, and James mouthed him that he got him. Steven exhaled. "Babe you are stressing me."

"You are stressing me as well." She said sardonically.

"I know what you need." He stood and took her into his arms. "I will massage you." He kissed her cheek and Freya melted. "Boys, I will just give my woman some time and you enjoy your condoms." Then he winked at James who nodded.

He took her upstairs.

"Nice," Andy said and wiggled her butt to Zachary who groaned. He held her steady and rubbed her stomach.

"Love, you are making me horny." He kissed her nape and she leaned on him.

"We will prepare for a barbeque," Ellen said.

"But you just got here from the market," Andel said. "You and Dmitri should chill out first." He added.

Ellen crossed her arms.

"So, are you going to help us than just sitting around?"

Andel scratched his head.

"Okay! I'll help!"

Andel and Ellen left to the kitchen and Stanley scratched his brows.

"I guess Ellen better marry Andel than some random guy," Stanley said. "Right, Zach?"

"Yeah. Andel better not messed up."

Andy knows her husband well.

***

Kathleen is staring at nowhere in her wide room. Her father abandoned her, and her mother is also a bitch who probably screwed around to get some money. She's been waiting and months had passed, her father never came to see her. But is he her father?

The way he looked at her is full of disgust and she's now questioning herself.

"I should be better. I shouldn't f.u.c.k around. I need to be better to go back." She told herself all over again.

"Miss Mondragon, you have a gift." Her nurse-delivered to her some paper bags and lots of gifts. She stared at it and she dug into it to find a letter. She pulled out a black and red card and gave it to her.

It has the seal of a Dragon Empire. She opened it.

Dearest Cousin,

How are you? I hope that you are doing fine. Uncle brought gifts for you and my gift for this Christmas. Get well soon and start a new life. 

Truly yours,

Andromeda

She's disappointed that it wasn't her father or her grandfather. She laughed and shook her head. She opened the gifts one by one and it was all that she wanted and like. But how is she going to wear it when she can't go outside?

She hasn't had s.e.x and somehow, she wasn't seeking it. And the drugs that she usually took to get high are also gone. She's clean and what she always did is training, exercising, learning, and self-discipline.

She needed to obey all of it. And if she disobeys, there's an additional one week to stay in the rehabilitation camp. She wanted to go out there back to her normal life, with friends and drink and have fun. They didn't let her drink some alcohol and she's eager to have one.

Her nurse came again, and it was a letter from her father. She read it and as she read it, she had a hope that he still cared for her.

Kathleen,

How are you doing, dear? I know that I am harsh but I have to do this to you. I love you as my daughter and I don't want you to be like your mother. You aren't your mother and I wish you to be well. When you came back, I wish that you learn how to ask for forgiveness and to forgive. I wish that you could reflect on things that you've done and have destroyed more than one life. 

My heart aches thinking of those and I just wish that you were born from a different mother that would teach you those things. I wasn't there to teach how and discipline you, and I lack that. 

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. I hope this year, you would learn important things to make yourself better. 

Love, 

Dad

She clutched it to her chest and now, she will do everything to get out of here.
