Today, the children’s movie they chose was a children’s adventure movie. The plot and dialogues were the children’s favorite, so as an adult, I felt drowsy watching it. 10 minutes after the movie started, I was exhausted.
“Nicole, here’s your popcorn.” I handed a large bucket of popcorn to Nicole, who was sitting on the furthest seat. Then I got ready to get a good sleep in my seat.
“Mommy? Are you sleepy?” Noelle asked worriedly as she took the popcorn.
If mommy fell asleep, how could mommy and daddy fall in love at first sight at the cinema? This made Noelle anxious.
“Mommy, don’t sleep anymore, watch the movie with us,” Winnie urged as well. She was at a loss as to what to do in the face of this unforeseen event.
Just as I was about to say something, I heard the person in front of me cough in dissatisfaction. So I shut my mouth resentfully and shook my head at the two babies. Right after, I adjusted my posture and closed my eyes.
“Shh, don’t be anxious. There’s still a way.” Winnie quickly comforted Noelle, who was a little anxious. At the same time, she looked at the watch on her wrist in confusion and muttered softly, “Why aren’t they here yet?”
In fact, Alpha and Nicole had been caught in a traffic jam on their way to the theater. It was the peak hour, so even Alpha, the heir to the number one financial group in Europe, had been forced to stay put.
When they finally reached the theater, the movie had started. Anxiety showed on Nicole’s face as she urged Alpha to hurry into the theater. But as they passed the popcorn machine, Nicole stopped and was stunned.
“Daddy, buy me popcorn!” Nicole said, pointing at the glistening yellow popcorn in the display window.
Alpha lowered his head to take a look before bending down to pick up Nicole. He flatly rejected her, “No, popcorn is a food with high oil and sugar content. It is not beneficial to our health.”
Thus, Nicole could only pout as she watched the popcorn disappear into the distance.
Finally, they found seats in the dark theater. Alpha carried Nicole all the way there, but a pair of feet blocked their way. The owner of the feet appeared to be a sleeping woman. Alpha frowned and whispered, “Excuse me, ma’ am.”
However, there was no response from the other party.
“Ma’ am?” Alpha prompted again. The woman’s long hair covered her face, and she seemed to be sleeping soundly, oblivious to the trouble she was causing others at the moment.
His heart suddenly began to race, and Alpha felt an inexplicable sense of frustration. Perhaps it was because of the uncultured woman in front of him, who had disrupted his interest in watching the movie with his son.
With no other choice, Alpha bent down to hug Nicole and squeezed past the woman’s feet. Unfortunately, their seats were right next to this uncouth sleeping woman.
Nicole quickly sat down and stared at the movie with her eyes wide open. She left the seat next to Luna for Alpha.
After Alpha and Nicole sat down, Winnie and Noelle exchanged glances. Noelle whispered, “Should we wake Mommy up?”
Winnie hesitated. She was about to wake Luna when she saw her limp body leaning toward her after she fell asleep. Her eyes lit up and she pushed her body toward Alpha.
Luna was fast asleep, oblivious to all of this. With Winnie’s help, her head naturally and slowly rested on Alpha’s left shoulder.
Luna even adjusted her body in her sleep and fell asleep in a more comfortable manner.
Suddenly, a strange woman leaned on his shoulder. Alpha’s first reaction was to push her away.. But when his hand was halfway there and the sudden light from the screen shone over, Alpha recognized the woman leaning over.
