Fated love: the unwanted bride

“Little Chale, come on in, Jasy is going to give you a bath.” Jasmine Yale opened the door and put everything on the sofa.

She rolled up her sleeves and turned to the bathroom to run some hot water. “Really?” Chale Cheney’s eyes sparkled.

Bath time!

Bath time!

He’d never been bathed by a pretty sister before!

“Of course.”

She even bought the little guy new clothes for tonight, both pajamas and outerwear, as a welcome gift.

What could she do, she just loved this little one.

The heat fogged up the bathroom, making it warm and cozy.

Jasmine Yale tested the water temperature; just right, perfect.

“I’m shy about undressing.”

Chale Cheney hid behind the door, blushing suddenly.

So bashful.

Jasmine Yale walked over to him in stride, flipping open his little shirt, laughing cheerfully.

“Ha ha, blushing now? Who was the one who kept asking for a bath from Jasy on the way here?”

“It wasn’t me.”

Chale Cheney covered his face.

The little one even knew how to feel embarrassed!

Jasmine Yale didn’t mind one bit. How old is he anyway?

She removed his little white shirt for him, then removed his pants and lifted him into the bathtub.

Chale Cheney covered his face and shyly said, “Jasy, you need to take responsibility for this.”

“How would you like me to take responsibility?”

Jasmine Yale playfully wiped his body with a new towel and dropped a little rubber duck in the bathtub.

It was her first time giving a child a bath, but it was much simpler than she imagined.

Although he wasn’t her own child, she felt joyous, as if she had eaten honey, sweet and delightful.

She was very happy to be this close with a child for the first time.

If her own baby were alive, it would definitely be adorable too.

“Jasy, have you ever given other boys a bath?”

Chale Cheney blinked his big eyes and looked earnestly at Jasmine Yale.

“No, you’re the first.”

“So lucky.”

Chale Cheney lathered his fingers with soap and splashed the water.

He’s really happy!

The little sister he was fond of was just so great!

Splashes of water sprayed all over Jasmine Yale’s face. She laughed, wiped it away, and continued washing his face.

“I love bathing, my skin feels so good…” Chale Cheney sang in a childlike voice while splashing about in the water.

“Jasy, will you have a baby in the future?”

Chale Cheney seemed to have thought of a serious question and earnestly looked at Jasmine Yale.

Jasmine Yale was taken aback, would she have a baby?

Maybe…

She really loved children and wanted to have a child of her own.

“Woo hoo, Jasy, if you have your own baby, will you abandon me… woo hoo…”

“Little Chale, no, Jasy will never leave you behind.” Jasmine Yale hastened to soothe him.

She knew that children were good at being appeased.

She spent today with little Chale, but it’s possible that they may never meet again in the future.

What can a child remember, after all?

“Pinky promise.” Chale Cheney extended his little finger.

Jasmine Yale laughed, a true child.

After the pinky promise, the little guy stopped crying and happily took his bath.

The bathroom was filled with white steam, and the scent of shower gel enveloped the room.

Chale Cheney wasn’t a naughty child, he particularly listened to Jasmine Yale, though he was occasionally a bit temperamental.

For example, only strawberry-flavored yogurt was in Jasmine Yale’s fridge, but the little guy insisted on having mango flavor.

It took Jasmine Yale a while to convince Chale Cheney that the strawberry flavor was just as tasty.

After a while, Jasmine Yale lifted the little one out of the bathtub.

The little one’s skin was very white and clean.

Jasmine Yale put the new yellow pajamas she bought onto him. There was a little bunny on the front.

She carried the little one to her room and placed him in her small bed.

Once on the bed, the little one started crawling around.

“Jasy, your bed is so soft.”

“Jasy, let’s go to sleep..”
