Chapter 222: Not Built In A Day

Cecile and Karl brought Shawn inside the house and everyone else also followed. Shawn was still anxious about everything that was happening.

Cecile was so happy to see him that she didn’t leave Shawn’s hand for even a second.

She held him all the way inside the house, not ready to part with him for even a single second.

They all sat down in the living area, where Cecile’s all attention was towards Shawn only.

Rita and Arya also greeted Shawn and because he knew them well before so he was happy to see them.

"How are you Rita? I hope this busybody is treating you well..." Shawn asked Rita sitting with Dean opposite to Shawn.

"I am fine bro Shawn. They are all very good and everyone treats me really well. Even Dean," Rita said with a huge shining smile on her face. Her smile gave a reassurance to Shawn and he nodded his head in approval.

"How are you Arya? Long time.."

"I am good." Said Arya suppressing her urge to call him big bro that could embarrass him actually. She will wait for the right time to tease him.

Cecile kept on making small talks to Shawn while she continuously held his hands and caressed his face every now and then.

Shawn felt very awkward for not being able to respond in a very loving way.

"I’m really sorry... It’s just that I’m not used to this kind of thing," Shawn murmured with his head down.

"You... can you please call me mom... I understand that everything is new to you. Don’t worry, just be as you want to be. This is your house, your family... you can familiarize with us little by little son, no one will ever judge you here... never. Oh God! I still can’t believe you are here and I can touch you like this," Cecile mumbled as tears started to form once more in her eyes.

"Mom... calm down. He is here with you now. I think Big Bro needs some rest and time alone for now. Let him settle down first and get a hold of his emotions as well, besides I’m sure he wants to have some private time with his newly wedded wife too." Ryu said smiling, he knew that it would take time for Shawn to get used to of the love, care and living with people that would care for him.

Cecile smiled too and looked at Denise then smiled meaningfully.

"Pardon me dear, I almost forgot that my elder son is already married to a beautiful lady. Denise I must thank you for standing with my son... Alright come son and I will show you your room that I have prepared for you, where you will stay with your wife." Cecile said.

Denise laughed and commented, "That’s okay mom. Please Bro Ryu let mom have her time with Shawn... I know she wants to talk about many things to Shawn and wants to know a lot of things about him. This is her first time meeting her son after-all."

Cecile smiled lovingly and looked at Shawn.

"For now, the first thing that I want to know about you is your favorite dish so I can prepare it for you myself." She said.

"Auntie, Big Bro Shawn will eat anything you want. I don’t think he is a picky eater. Hey big bro Shawn, I can see all the attention of the ladies of the family is on you, you are already the most popular and liked and known man by all the ladies, among all of us. That reminds me... you guys carry on with your talks, I will leave first with my wife because time is gold, I’m sure once grandpa comes back he will eat up most of our time so let me see you all at lunch!" Dean said bluntly and quickly pulled Rita towards their room.

Shawn was just quiet. He actually didn’t talk much and will just speak whenever he was asked about something. Karl noticed that so he signaled Cecile to let her son go for now.

Cecile let out a big sigh and said, "Alright, I will prepare my specialties and let see which one you like the most... Let’s all talk over a good meal at lunch."

"Denise come and get your husband from you mom or else I’m afraid that she’ll glue her hand to Shawn for next 24 hours." Karl said in a jest that made Arya and Ryu laugh.

"You two also, you can now leave..." added Karl while looking at Arya and Ryu.

"Your wish is our command dad." Ryu said chuckling and quickly pulled Arya but then paused and looked back and Shawn then said, "Big Bro, welcome home."

Shawn gave Ryu a half smile while his face reddened.

"Mom, I’ll take Shawn away for now since I’m sure he’ll bury himself soon because he’s too shy and can’t figure out about how to react and handle his emotions right now." Said Denise and held Shawn’s arm.

Cecile let go of Shawn’s hand and gave him a reassuring smile to go with Denise.

Karl put his arm on his wife’s shoulder and whispered, "Take it slowly hon. Rome was not built in a day."

Cecile pouted her lips and looked at Karl with narrow eyes. "I know but it’s just that I feel that time is too short..."

Karl sighed and kissed his wife’s hair. "Don’t worry he will soon stay with us hon." He murmured.
