It's Hard to Control My Naughty Wife!

Misha woke up because there was something warm clinging to his body and it surprised him when he touched under the blanket and felt a small body underneath, which made him immediately open the blanket and find Mika who was fast asleep.

The little girl even snored a little with her mouth slightly open.

"How did she get here?" Misha rubbed his face roughly, thinking that he was still dreaming, but when he touched his daughter's cheek, it was really Mika and the little girl was sleeping without a care about her surroundings. "How did you get here?" he said that to himself again and shook his head.

Misha tried to remember last night's events.

Before he went back to his room, he took the time to go to Mika's room and made sure that she was okay and he was sure that the little girl was still asleep in her bed, but now she had moved to his bed.

Misha took a deep breath and covered Mika's body again. He kissed Mika's cheek gently, so she wouldn't wake up and then got out of bed.

He went into the bathroom and washed his face and only then did he step out of the room.

When he came out of the room, he found a crowd in the living room. His mother approached him with a panicked face and of course this made Misha's forehead wrinkle.

"What is it?" asked Misha.

"This is bad! This is bad!" Candice looked on the verge of tears. Her face looked flushed and she was still in her nightwear, while behind her, his dad was on the phone with someone and seemed just as panicked as his mom.

"What is it? What happened?" Misha had only slept for about four hours, but what important event had happened to create such a mess? "What is this? Why is it so noisy in the morning?"

"Misha, this is really bad! Mika is missing! She's not in her room!" Candice was almost hysterical when she said this, she even broke out in tears and clutched her son's shirt.

"Disappeared?" Misha frowned, he was still a little sleepy from lack of sleep, but he had to get up early because today he had promised Mika that they would meet Kia early in the morning.

Therefore, he got out for coffee, he needed caffeine intake to start his day.

"Why are you so calm?" This time Candice became angry because Misha's reaction was nothing like what she expected. Her son just stared at her in silence. "Aren't you worried? That daughter of yours disappeared, she disappeared from her room, but you're not worried at all, what kind of a father are you?!"

"She disappeared? She didn't disappear, mother, she was in my room." Misha told her calmly, after he analyzed the situation and was sure that it was just a misunderstanding, where his mother was too worried and escalated the situation until it became like this.

"In your room?" Candice repeated with a frown. She took a deep look at Misha and from behind, Lexus joined in as well.

"What is it? So? Have you found my granddaughter?" Lexus looked at Misha and then his wife with a questioning expression.

"She is in my room, she didn't disappear. It seems she moved into my room while I was sleeping," Misha explained and that was the only reason he thought made sense to explain how Mika got to be in his room.

"But… but I checked your room earlier, but Mika wasn't there," said Candice, she was sure she had checked Misha's room earlier to look for Mika. "I only found you in bed, fast asleep, so I didn't wake you up, because I thought I'd look for it first."

"Mika was there, she was sleeping next to me, mom must not have seen her because she was under the covers, I think she covered her whole body because it was too cold in my room" Misha explained this. "If you don't open the covers, you won't be able to see her."

If it wasn't for her warm body pressed against his hugging him, Misha definitely wouldn't have noticed that either.

"Are you serious?" asked Lexus.

"You can see her, but don't make any noise, she's still sleeping."

And without waiting for him to say that twice, Candice and Lexus immediately went to Misha's room and sure enough, they both found their granddaughter asleep, hugging a pillow, her face almost buried in the blanket.

"You made Grandpa's heart almost stop, sweet girl," said Lexus while stroking Mika's head and Candice raised the temperature in the room so it wouldn't be too cold for Mika.

They didn't even inquire further about Mika's origins or ask for a DNA test, because the resemblance between Mika and Misha was completely undeniable.

Mika was the little girl version of Misha, they were both very similar.

And so, this morning's commotion was resolved properly and when Mika woke up, she immediately asked to be escorted to meet her mother.

Of course Lexus and Candice didn't go with them both, because it wasn't the right time for them to meet with Kia yet. They would look for a better time later, when Kia's condition got better.

"Bye, grandma, bye grandpa…" Mika waved at Candice and Lexus, then took Misha's hand and pulled him toward the car. "Let's go, Uncle."

Misha still felt bitter about the title, but he didn't correct her and Candice and Lexus didn't say anything when he told them what Mika would call him.

They only said to give Mika and Kia time, because they were the ones who suffered the most from this incident.

"Good morning, Uncle Richard," said Kia to Richard. She had seen him a few times and they both became close.

"Hello, Mika. Good morning, you look excited today," said Richard while opening the car door for the both of them.

"Yeah, because I am going to meet my mother!" Mika exclaimed cheerfully. She jumped in the car and pulled Misha's hand to get into the car.

She was holding her favorite stuffed bunny that Lexus bought her in one hand and in her bag, she had stuffed some of her favorite chocolates to give to her mother, as well as a picture book in which she drew herself and also Kia.

Along the way, Mika sang songs taught by her grandmother and looked very happy, which made Misha's heart melt and he couldn't stop smiling throughout the trip.

"Mika is very happy to meet Mama?" asked Richard while glancing at the little girl from the rearview mirror.

He couldn't stop smiling either, as if the happiness Mika was feeling rubbed off on him too.

"Of course, Mika is happy to meet Mama," Mika said cheerfully.

The journey from Tordoff's residence to the hospital where Kia was being treated took about one and a half hours by car and during this journey, Mika didn't seem to lose her energy.

And when they finally arrived at the hospital, a nurse immediately approached Misha, knowing their arrival and looking worried.

"Sorry, Mr. Tordoff, before meeting Ms. Lyrant, it seems like I have something to say first," said the nurse with a worried face.

"What happened?" Misha asked, his smile instantly vanishing. He gripped Mika's small hand tightly, while she looked at Misha with a confused face.

Misha didn't receive any strange reports during this one week and Kia's development could be said to be quite stable even though not much had changed during the one week she had been here.

"Please follow me to see the doctor who is treating Ms. Lyrant." The nurse then directed them to the doctor's office, instead of leading them to the meeting room where Kia was.

"Uncle, what's wrong? We're going to meet Mama, right?" Mika asked with a worried face, she could feel a negative reaction from the short chat between the two of them.

"Yes, we will meet with Mama, but before that, we will see the doctor first." He felt that something had happened to Kia.

Meanwhile, Richard was following them from behind.

=======================

"Mom is still sick?" Alia asked her father, because for the past few days, her mother had locked herself in her room all day and said that she was sick.

Alia didn't know what happened and why her mother suddenly got sick like this, but it seemed like this wasn't an ordinary illness, because every time she passed her mother's room, her mother would be crying.

"Yes, mother is still sick, it's best to let her rest first, don't disturb her, okay?" said Lyle while stroking Alia's head and inviting her to the living room to watch the movie together, so she wouldn't see Amber's current condition.

Silently, Alia followed her father into the living room and then sat beside him.

"Is this because of sister Kia?" asked Alia with an expressionless face, but her gaze was fixed on her father and for a moment, Lyle didn't know what to say. "This has something to do with Kia, right?" asked Alia again because Lyle didn't say anything.

"No, you don't need to think about this," Lyle said as he pulled his daughter to sit on the couch.

Alia was silent and when the movie that had been chosen earlier was about to start, Alia then said. "Sister Kia likes movies of the horror genre. She said life was scarier than the stories in the movies."

Lyle didn't know about this. He didn't even know Kia's favorite film genre at all. In the past, he had never asked nor did he ever sincerely want to know.
