The Law of Attraction

The next morning, Daryl woke up early to pick up Kenzie at the hospital to go to work together after eating breakfast with his father-in-law. His father-in-law was already awake when he arrived.

"Good morning father," he greeted with a bright smile. Jack only nodded and watched him place the fruits on the table and pull out the paper bags with the breakfast he brought as well.

"I asked for your diet plan from the doctor and prepared something approved by your dietician," Daryl commented as he pulled the tray table for his father-in-law.

"I hope you like it…" Daryl said while arranging it on the tray. Jack coughed and signaled Butler Mark to get it from Daryl and arrange it himself instead.

"Is this your first time cooking? You shouldn't have bothered if it is…" Kenzie's father murmured making Butler Mark shake his head. He knew he was intentionally being mean to Daryl. If he was right with his hunch, Master Jack was testing his son-in-law's patience. He couldn't believe that his Master could be so childish.

Daryl had a bashful smile ignoring the last sentence as he answered, "No father. I have lived independently for a long time so I'm really good at cooking. You can ask for a particular dish and I will cook it for you next."

Jack's eyebrow lifted up as he mumbled, "No need. We have a chef to do those things. Just focus on taking care of my daughter alone."

Kenzie almost choked hearing that. She had just got out of the bathroom after a quick shower and a change of dress when she heard her father.

"You're early," she greeted Daryl with her warm hug and a sounding kiss on his lips making her father cough as if reminding her that he was still around.

Kenzie chuckled and said, "Dad, we are a newlywed couple! Don't tell me you expected us to be stiff and awkward. By the way, after breakfast, I will leave with Daryl for work and be back here to join you for dinner later…"

Jack simply nodded and tasted the congee Daryl had prepared for him.

Kenzie sat near him as she too dug in and ate the other dishes Daryl brought.

"How is the food dad? Daryl is really well-versed in the kitchen. He cooks really well you know," Kenzie commented. Jack peeked at Daryl who was in the corner, peeling and cutting some fruits.

"Not bad especially when you have nothing else to eat," her father murmured, making Kenzie scrunch her face as she scoffed, "Hmmp you're being so mean dad."

"What?! I'm just stating my honest opinion. Our chef is still a better cook and I prefer his dishes more." Jack added.

Kenzie rolled her eyes and breathed, "Duh our chef is a professional of course he's excellent."

"Precisely, so next time make sure to bring me the food our excellent chef prepares," Jack commented with a grin, enjoying the sour face of his daughter who would always come to rescue her husband whenever he would bully him intentionally.

"So you two love each other? I heard you pestered him nonstop?" Kenzie heard her father questioned so she looked at Butler Mark with a pointed gaze.

Jack chuckled and said, "Don't kill our poor Mark with your look. I was the one who asked him to be honest with me so don't blame him for telling everything."

Kenzie pouted her lips and whispered, "Of course he loves me. Don't be harsh on him okay? You will regret it once your memory comes back."

Kenzie heard her father click his tongue as he mumbled, "Look at how head over heels you are over that man. I only hope that he too is deeply in love with you and will not make you cry or else I will castrate him myself…"

Daryl heard the last words since he was walking towards them with a tray of freshly cut fruits. His face paled, making him gulp in nervousness.

'Why would his father-in-law want to castrate him?' he mused as he tried to compose himself.

"Father, please have some fruits," he said with a smile, hoping he was only joking with Kenzie.

Jack signaled Butler Mark who immediately got the tray from Daryl.

"Thank you, darling. I'm sure father is very pleased. Let's try to understand him since he just got surgery and things can be confusing… I'm sure he will remember how much he loves you and roots for you as his son-in-law," Kenzie commented with a wink, making Daryl cough.

"You two finish eating now and leave… I'm not prepared to watch my daughter doing that PDA thing!" Jack scoffed with a crumpled face.

Kenzie laughed and pulled her husband to the corner to eat breakfast with him.

"So did you sleep well last night darling?" Kenzie whispered.

"Yeah, I did. I think I sleep well when you're not around," Daryl answered nonchalantly and grabbed a sandwich to feed it to Kenzie.

Kenzi pouted her lips and scrunched her eyebrows.

"Seriously?!" she barked on Daryl's face.

Daryl had a quirky smile as he answered, "Well I just realized that I sleep less whenever you're sleeping with me compared to when I sleep alone because I always thirst for you. I feel so aroused whenever you're near me that we always end up…

You know doing it over and over again, consuming a lot of time before sleeping. Sometimes I even tend to wake up in the middle of the night and end up doing it again since you're beside me. You see I love being inside of..."

Kenzie covered his mouth with her palm unable to hear the rest of his words. Though Daryl was whispering in her only for her to hear, she felt so embarrassed that her face turned deep red.

On the contrary, Daryl was enjoying the bashful blushing face of his wife. But what he said was indeed true. He could not get enough of Kenzie so both of them usually lack sleep.

"You were not pleased with my answer so I had to explain things before you misunderstand anything baby. But I prefer you always sleep beside me since it feels empty without you. I feel so incomplete without you around. I think you cast a spell on me that is making me feel like this," Daryl said lovingly as he caressed Kenzie's cheeks.

Not far from the couple, Jack witnessed this loving scene and he heaved a sigh.

"I guess that's a sigh of satisfaction Master Jack. People say that eyes never lie. Your son-in-law is deeply in love with Young MIss," Butler Mark remarked with a grin.
