42. Grand mother's decision

"Time for what?" grand pa asked.

Obviously he was done with his call and wanted to know what he missed.

"I was just Telling the couple here that I would like to plan their hobey moon because they have not gone for it and guess what they are saying?" Veronica asked.

"What is it?" Mr Peter asked her.

"They said I should give them time." Veronica explained to her husband.

"Time for what if I may ask?" grandpa asked.

"Exactly what I was asking them. What more time do they want? Bryan is too occupied with work and he needs a break, and please do not support him on that aspect and say that working is good. Too much work and no play makes you old and grumpy." Veronica explained to Everyone.

"So are you saying I am grumpy my love?" Grandpa asked his dear wife.

"Yes most of the time, you are always complaining and arguing with our dear grand son and you want him to be like you. All I am saying is that you cut him some slacks and let him enjoy his youth a bit please." Veronica said.

"I do not have any problem with him having some fun, he should not just let the business empire suffer, period." Grandpa said.

"Well it would not my love." Veronica said.

"As for their honeymoon, Bryan you should let her plan it if not she would not allow me sleep well at night," Grandpa said to Bryan.

"Grand dad when we are ready we would tell her but please and please just give us some time. I have lots of work related activities which I must see to personally so that Is all I want." Bryan complained.

"Yes yes you cab handle them and when you are free you can go on your honeymoon." Grandpa agreed.

"Peter my love, there will always be work, both of you should stop making excuses for God's sake." Veronica said.

"Grand mom please OK? It is my honey moon, mine and my wife's, please allow us. Yes we would have had it since but we have not, but now we will but in our own time. No one says a couple must do their honeymoon immediately after their wedding day so please ma, I am asking you to give us sometime OK?"

"OK I have heard you, I will give you time, but do not let it be too long OK son?" grand ma Veronica asked.

"Yes ma we have heard you," Bryan said holding Alexa hands and showing a friendly smirk on his face.

She faked a smile as well but was really praying that they do not go for that vacation, she was not ready to leave her mom now and be having fun in a contracted marriage.

She took a deep breath and paused

After a lovely time spent at the Kenwood's mansion, it was time for the couple Bryan and Alexa to leave.

"OK grand parents we would like to go home now, we both have had a very busy day and we would want to rest," Bryan said.

They stood up, Bryan finished his wine and dropped the Glass. His grand parents thanked them and told them it was nothing at all they would want them to come around more often especially Alexa their new daughter in law.

Bryan appreciated Rosita as well for a wonderful time and said he's goodbyes. They got out of the mansion and went straight to the car that was parked outside waiting to carry them home.

"Thank you grand mother and father for this dinner, I am grateful and we sure will be Seeing more often," Alexa said as she kissed them both and got in the car.

"See you around grandfather." Bryan said.

"I love you grand mom,"

"Goodnight my boy and do not forget to not take long about the honeymoon," Grandma said. Bryan kissed her and got in as well and they drove off.

"Grandpa and grand ma went inside as they discussed how the evening went and it was lovely.

"Alexa is so lovely. I really like her dear, do you like her Darling?" Veronica asked as their voices got fainted as they went further inside the house.

"Yes I like her, she is not bad at all," Grand pa said.

"My God, I am relieved that we have left there, my grand mom is something else. One thing is to have Dinner, the next she speaks of honeymoon. How?" Bryan said out loud inside the car to Alexa.

"Just calm down please, do not over think it, she just care about you a lot that is all Bryan," Alexa said.

He took a deep breath and just tried to calm down. In a while they got home and was welcomed by Beatrice and the rest maids.

Alexa was relieved that she was back in Bryan's house and just wanted to go to bed.

"Welcome Sir, Ma'am," Beatrice said.

"Thank you Beatrice, everything good?" Bryan asked.

"Yes Sir everything is fine but I can get you some wine or anything else you need Sir," Beatrice said.

"A cup of tea will do, how about you honey?" Bryan asked Alexa.

"I will have the same, thank you Beatrice," Alexa replied.

"Two cups of tea coming right away Sir," Beatrice said and the couple went to their room.

As soon as they got in, Bryan took off his jacket and shoes while he sat on a single couch beside the bed. He looked at Alexa as she slowly removed the pins from her hair and he asked her.

"When would you want us to go for honeymoon wife," he had that smirk look on his face.

Alexa looked at him from the mirror and just took a deep breath.

"Sir please I can not leave my mother yet, I beg you," Alexa turned to plead.

He stood up and slowly took unbuttoned his shirt and walked straight to Alexa.
