Chapter 218 - Mother



Filled with anticipation and the urge to explore new weird feelings left her waiting for the kiss. She savored and tried to identify the new fondness she was sensing by the brush of Aaron\'s fingertips.

His back of his finger grazed her neck, up her jawline, and her smooth rosy cheek. 

Oblivious, Aarvi slightly tried to push her chin up to meet his lips when he closed down to torture her supple skin with his hot breath. But his hold on her chin ceased her movements and Aarvi was appalled.

She realized he was teasing her and wasn\'t going to do anything. She opened her eyes and squinted to gaze at him up so close as she pouted her lips in anger for being played.

"Aar…" Her tone was cut off when Aaron gently blew on her face, closing her eyes shut.

Aaron hid his smile looking at her gritting teeth. He glanced at the timer and was proud for keeping her enticed for fifty seconds before she could realize he was playing her.

He had expected her flushed red face laying on his lap but she raised her single brow before smirking evilly, "Avenging me!? How naive!" She exclaimed and slammed her hand on the car horn leaving him speechless.

There were ten seconds and all turned to the car giving him a nasty gaze. His car windshields weren\'t particularly tinted so they could clearly see him. Aaron saw people cursing him pointing their hands towards him.

Aaron saw her grin, he controlled as it\'s just five seconds left and he threatened seriously, "You sure are asking for some punishment."

Aarvi stuck her tongue out, "I will wait for it." 

Aaron: "..." Now he should think of what punishment could scare her and he could have fun seeing her.

With lots of tease and talk, they reached the cemetery. It was the same cemetery where Aarvi, Shawn, and Dax were scared of seeing the dwarf security man in the middle of the night. 

The cemetery had two sections, the beginning one was very vast and was for common people or the public at low cost, the secondary mostly belongs to upper-class wealthy society at very high expense and for military officials.

Usually, the wealthy decades-old families reserve land on the dune so that they could bury all family members in a single area. The Rivas had a reserved place and there were Aaron\'s great grandfather and his siblings\' tombstones. 

Aaron never knew them so he guided Aarvi through the tombstones holding the bouquets in one hand and another hand holding hers.

Aarvi unknowingly looked for Kelly\'s tombstones, in particular, her tombstone, the tombstone where \'Ava Kelly\' was written.

It took her some moments to compose before silently following Aaron. Her gaze landed on a man who was leaving the cemetery on a different path, "Aaron, it\'s…"

Aaron hummed, cutting her off, "Dad comes here on his day off. Let him be alone for some time. We will see him at home."

\'Home!? Now the Rivas Mansion is also my home?\' Aarvi thought looking at Connor solemnly walking away from there. She shook her head and went next to Aaron, "Your parents had a love marriage?" 

Even though Connor was sad, there was a little happiness for having time to drop by his wife. She doubted if one could have those feelings in an arrange marriage hence she guessed it could be a love marriage.

Aaron faintly smiled at her as he wrapped his arm around her shoulder, "Yes, Mom was just twenty-two I guess when Dad liked her. Both were in training when they got to know each other, spent time, and got married. Hence Dad looks too young to have a son like me."

"Woah" Aarvi glanced at the silhouette that went away from their gaze. 

She knew Megan and Karsen had a love marriage too and they were too young when they married. She knows Jordan was never against love marriage instead encourages it.

"You are so late. By your age, your Dad had four years old cute Aaron playing around him." Aarvi remarked poking him and giggled imagining Aaron carrying little Aaron.

Aaron nonchalantly responded pushing the blame off, "Hold my grandfather and yourself responsible. He sent me away then you were running away."

Aarvi faintly smiled but didn\'t comment. Why can\'t Jordan accept her when he accepts his sons\' love marriage more than two decades earlier? 

She silently sighed, understanding he might have been horrified seeing her first time in the hospital and wants to avoid problems she might bring upon his grandson.

Even though she understood Jordan Rivas\'s worries, she is selfish and she wasn\'t going to step back because of the third person\'s views. Only one could push her away from Aaron, Aaron himself. 

Aaron passed her a bouquet when they stood in front of his mother\'s tombstone. Aarvi placed it down before standing next to Aaron. In complete silence, both deep bowed together and blankly stared at the tomb.

The path between life and death can be painfully long or heart-achingly short. We never know how the person brightly talks to you now and can become distant in the very next minute.

Ava Kelly, there are numerous times she was close to being buried in the graveyard but her life is pain painstakingly long. Hence she killed herself and now, she is standing with a new identity, Aarvi Evans.

Even though she used to feel that name foreign, Aaron had made sure to make her used to the name by calling her frequently. Now she might not react for \'Ava\' but \'Aarvi\' and \'Evans\'.

Aarvi leaned on Aaron, feeling him emotional due to his silence. She tried to comfort him by her presence even though she couldn\'t fulfill the emptiness of his mother.

After clearing her throat, "You don\'t talk to your mother?" She asked by making her innocent face. 

\'Talk to his mother?\' Aaron was confused.

Aarvi pointed to herself and pledged, "I will teach you." Then she turned to the tomb and started talking, "Aunty Aniyah, you are right, your son is dumb when it comes to showing affection. Don\'t worry, now I am here to smack his head and teach him."

Aaron: "..."

Aaron hid his amusement and watched her silently. He ever expected Aarvi Evans to talk…No, complain to his mother.

Aarvi glanced at him once and continued, "Sigh… Aunty Aniyah, your son is still stubborn. Look at him, he isn\'t caring to introduce me to you. So let me introduce myself, you have met me as Shawn\'s Little Heart, now I am here as Aaron\'s girlfriend, Aarvi Evans." 

Then she whispered after taking a step away from Aaron, "I will be coming to you and whinge you about Aaron. So please bear with me."

Aaron chuckled hearing her as he pulled her back next to him. He so wished he could say to his mother as \'Here is my Cupcake.\' but just smiled before pointing at Ariel\'s tombstone.

Aarvi noticed that Connor gets red roses for his wife and white roses for his daughter. \'He must miss them a lot.\' She thought before receiving the bouquet from Aaron\'s hands.

Aaron watched Aarvi place the bouquet and deep bow before standing straight. He saw her glance at him before standing next to the tombstone facing him.

"You were thinking I will steal your sweet little brother… Hehehe, I stole your beloved elder brother." Her voice was low but audible to Aaron who couldn\'t help but smile at her cheeky voice .

Holding her hand and pulling next to him, "Little sister, now she is your sister-in-law. Don\'t dare to bully her again."

Surprised, Aarvi put on a smug smile, flipping her hair behind, "See, I have your brother wrapped around my finger." Then she stuck her tongue out before giggling.

Aaron and Aarvi continued to talk and whinge to his mother and sister erasing the sadness to light-heartedness. The contentment Aarvi had seen on Connor\'s face finally appeared on Aaron\'s achieving Aarvi\'s little mission.

Aaron was taking her out when Aarvi looked behind and asked in confusion, "Aaron, your grandmother?"

Aaron paused for a second before resuming, "Grandmother is alive."

"Oops." Aarvi smacked herself and apologized, "Sorry… Then why haven\'t I heard anything about her? I don\'t remember Shawn speaking about her either."

Aaron\'s fingers intertwined with hers as they walked. "Last time I saw her during the funeral of Ariel. She has been staying in our hometown for around 9 years."

\'Nine years.\' Aarvi couldn\'t understand why she wasn\'t staying with Jordan while Aaron thought about why did his grandmother leave his grandfather right after he left for the country S.

Aaron spoke looking at her in deep thought, "Grandmother is an ayurvedic doctor and maintains a large farm over there. Want to visit her?"

Aarvi shook her head thinking why the couple wasn\'t together before snapping back and voicing to Aaron, "Not so soon, we will plan when we need an outing. So that you can spend time with her."

After some distance, Aaron paused and pointed to a tomb that was a little distance away, "Want to check out?"

Aarvi realized it\'s \'Ava Kelly\' named tomb. She wasn\'t interested in checking out anymore so she shook her head as she led him towards the exit, "Who do you like? Me or Ava Kelly?"

Aaron: "..." He regretted showing the tomb.

He can\'t say one because he likes her irrespective of her identity, "I love you, not identities."

He was getting proud of himself for handling her silly question but Aarvi probed further despite liking his response, "Then don\'t you like my identities?"

Aaron: "..."

Aarvi had fun leaving him speechless all the way towards the Rivas mansion.

She had kept their mood light and fun but her brow uncontrollably twitched while stepping out of the car gazing at two who were giggling together cooking something against her.

\'Why can\'t I give rest to my brain?\' Aarvi cried in her mind.
