Stella was holding Bryce's hand until they reached the garage. Theo opened the door for them, but Bryce didn't go inside the car. "What are you waiting for, young man?" Theo asked him, and Bryce looked around. "Where is my Daddy?" Bryce said while looking around, "He will come with us but he will use his car." Theo answered.
Bryce immediately smiled at him and went inside the car. "You are looking for your Dad?" Stella asked him, and Bryce nodded his head. She got her phone from her pocket and dialed Brandon's number.
'Yes, Stella?' They heard Brandon's voice from the other line.
'Daddy!' Bryce called him and smiled at Stella.
'Follow our car!' Stella told Brandon,
'I will!' Brandon answered and the call ended.
Theo watched how Bryce was happy while talking to Brandon, he just closed his eyes and started driving. Stella noticed that Theo didn't say anything and just drove. She caressed his arm, which made Theo look at him. "I'm sorry!" Stella whispered at him, and Theo nodded his head. "It is fine!" Theo answered and focused on driving.
After a couple of minutes of traveling, they reached the nearest mall. Theo parked his car in the underground parking lot. Brandon also parked his car beside Theo's car, "Daddy!" Bryce said while looking at Brandon's car.
They got out of the car, and Bryce immediately went to Brandon. "Let's go!" Bryce told them, and they went inside the mall. Stella was walking beside Theo when Theo reached her hand to hold her. "I didn't expect that we could experience this kind of thing." Theo told her, "Me too! This is so unexpected!" Stella answered and looked at Bryce.
They reached the arcade, and Bryce immediately went to the motorcycle stall, "I want here, Daddy!" He said while pointing out the motorcycle. "We will just buy some tokens." Brandon told him, and they bought a lot of tokens.
Stella was watching Bryce with Brandon, "I guess I am ruining your family!" Theo said and stood beside Stella. "What are you saying? Don't say that!" Stella said and looked at him seriously. "Nah! It just went to my head!" Theo answered and watched his brother playing with Bryce.
"Mommy, come here!" Bryce called Stella, "Go to him!" Theo said and nodded his head. Stella walked towards Bryce, and Brandon looked at him. "He let you come here!" Brandon told her, which made Stella look at him. "Yeah, of course! He can understand our situation." Stella answered and looked at Bryce.
"Bryce, do you want to eat some snacks?" Stella asked him, and Bryce immediately nodded his head. They decided to look for a good fast-food place, "What do you want to eat?" Stella asked Bryce again. They were looking at the menu when Theo chose his order.
After Stella paid for their order, they looked at a vacant table. "I look like a bodyguard here!" Brandon said and walked with her to their table. "You are just overreacting!" Stella answered and looked at Theo, "You should sit beside me." Stella told him. "I want to sit with Bryce!" Theo said and smiled at Bryce.
"Uncle Theo told me that he was going to buy toys for me." Bryce said and clapped his hands out of excitement. "Oh! Really? That is good to hear!" Stella said and caressed Bryce's head.
Their order was served and started eating their meal, "I didn't know that this meal will taste like this!" Theo said while looking at his food. "Why? You don't like it?" Stella asked her right away, "Nah! It tastes good!" Theo answered and smiled at him.
They finished their meal and decided to watch a movie. "What do you want to watch, Bryce?" Theo asked him and pointed out the movies that suit him. Bryce was thinking seriously while looking at the two movies that Theo pointed out, "I want this one!" He answered and pointed out a movie.
"Great, let's buy some tickets!" Theo answered and they bought four tickets for them. "I am lucky to be here!" Brandon said and smirked at his brother. "Good for you!" Theo said, and they bought some snacks to bring inside the cinema.
"Mommy, why is Uncle Theo so kind to me?" Bryce said when Theo went to the comfort room. "Because he likes you!" Stella said and caressed his cheeks, "Really? I thought he didn't like me." Bryce said and pouted his lips. "No! The first he saw you, he already liked you." Stella told him, which made Brandon cough.
Stella glared at him, "Don't do it!" She whispered to him. "I am not doing anything!" Brandon said and smirked at her. Theo came back, and they went inside the cinema. They went to their designated seats, and Stella was sitting in the middle of Bryce and Brandon.
After a couple of hours of watching the movie, they decided to buy some toys for Bryce. They were lurking around the store when Bryce pointed out a toy to Theo, "Do you want that?" Theo asked him. Bryce nodded his head right away, "Okay, we will buy that!" Theo answered.
Stella was so happy watching how Bryce getting comfortable with Theo. "Sooner or later, Bryce will not look for me anymore." Brandon said, which made Stella startled. "It is for the better!" Stella told him, and Brandon couldn't say anything about it.
After buying toys for Bryce, they decided to go home. Theo was driving back to their place when Stella received a call from Brandon,
'I am going back to the mansion now!' He said from the other line.
'Say goodbye to Brandon!' Stella told him and gave her phone to Bryce.
'Daddy?' Bryce called him,
'I will go home now, Bryce! Have a good night!' Brandon told him from the other line.
'Okay, Daddy! Good night!' Bryce answered and gave the phone back to Stella.
Stella ended the call and focused in front, "I guess he enjoyed our trip!" Theo told her. "Yeah, Bryce is so happy—
"I'm talking about Brandon!" Theo cut what she was saying. Stella couldn't say anything and looked at him, "What do you mean?" Stella asked him.
"He's with you!" Theo answered, and Stella immediately shook her head. "Theo!" Stella said, which made Theo laugh. "I'm just kidding!" Theo said, and they reached their house.
Stella opened the door to get Bryce and when she saw her son, Bryce was already sleeping. "Oh! He must be tired!" She said while looking at Bryce. "I will carry him!" Theo said after he saw Bryce sleeping at the back of his car.
Theo opened the door and got Bryce from there. They went inside their house, and Theo put Bryce into Stella's room. "Thank you so much, Theo!" Stella told him when he got out of her room.
"Why are you thanking me? It is my job to be a father figure to him." Theo said, which made Stella happy at what he said. "Really? You are thinking that way?" Stella asked him, and Theo nodded his head.
Stella couldn't stop herself and hugged him tightly, "I'm really lucky to have you!" She said while hugging him. Theo caressed her back and kissed her head, "Anything for you, Stella!" Theo answered.
It was already dark when Stella wanted to cook for their dinner, "What do you want to eat?" She asked Theo while they were in the living room. "I'm full!" Theo told her, and Stella nodded her head.
They decided to skip dinner because Bryce was still sleeping. The next day came, and Bryce woke up early. He was looking for Stella inside their room.
"Mommy!" Bryce was looking for Stella, "I am here!" Stella yelled when she heard Bryce's voice inside their room.
Bryce went out of their room and looked for Stella in the kitchen. "Good morning!" Stella greeted him with a smile. Bryce immediately hugged her, "Good morning, Mommy!" Bryce also greeted her.
"Good morning!" Theo appeared and went to Bryce, "Good morning, young man!" He added and carried Theo into his arms. "Should we play with your toys?" Theo asked him, "Yes, Uncle Theo!" Bryce answered.
Theo and Bryce went to the living room to play while Stella was preparing their breakfast.
"They look like a happy family now!" Tyros said while walking in front of Brandon. "Can you stop walking? You are making me dizzy!" Brandon told him, which made Tyros shake his head in disbelief. "Why? Are you jealous?" Tyros teased him, and Brandon immediately got the pillow. He threw it into Tyros' face, but Tyros covered his face with his arms.
"Why would I be jealous?" Brandon asked him and smirked at Tyros. "You used to be theirs and now Theo taking your spot! Like what happened to Stella. She used to like you then she likes Theo now." Tyros answered, and Brandon became quiet.
Tyros has a point, but Brandon didn't want to accept the fact that they needed Theo now more than they need him. He shook his head to remove that thought in his mind.
