Chapter 347 I Love Family Day

Day Forty-One...

~~*****~~

Nathan joined Abigail and Ethan. They were done registering for three different games. The first game was the sack race. There were six families who registered to join this game. The game facilitator called the participating groups. Ethan pulled his father and Abigail to the starting lane.

The game facilitator explained the mechanics of the game. Nathan was not familiar with this kind of game. He never played anything like this before. When he was young, he already started making robots. He was more exposed to computers.

"How are we going to run while inside this sack?" Nathan asked his son and Abigail.

Both Abigail and Ethan shook their heads while staring at Nathan helplessly. "Dad! You are so innocent. You have to jump, not run."

Abigail clicked her tongue and said, "Ethan, it's best if we will put your dad in the last line."

Ethan bobbed his head frantically and said, "Dad, watch and learn!"

The players proceeded to their respective positions. Ethan would run first. Abigail was standing behind him. Nathan was in the last spot.

The game master blew his whistle signifying the start of the sack race. Ethan started jumping while tugging the small sack up to his waist. Abigail cheered on him. Ethan was competing with other children.

"Go, Ethan! You can do it!" Abigail raised her fist, still cheering on Ethan.

Nathan just watched Abigail and Ethan. His heart was moved by this heartwarming scene. The way Abigail was encouraging Ethan brought a wonderful feeling inside his heart. Ethan finally found a mother in Abigail's presence.

Nathan was inspired to do his best today as Ethan's father. Just a while ago, Ethan whispered to him, "Dad! Win all the games. Let's make Miss Abi proud!"

Nathan focused his attention on Ethan, analyzing his moves. After a while, Nathan learned what to do. But the game master surprised them with a twist. After the children reached the starting line, their parents would do the race using one large sack. They had to place their legs inside the sack and jumped together. This would test their coordination and teamwork as a couple.

Ethan was leading the race. He reached the starting line first. Now, it was Abigail's and Nathan's turn to do the race.

"Follow my lead, Nate. Don't be a hindrance to Ethan's victory!" Abigail warned Nathan when they put on the sack.

"I know what to do. You don't have to worry." Nathan uttered, fixing their position inside the sack.

"We will see. Now, Jump!" Abigail urged Nathan to do as she say. At first, Nathan staggered and he almost fell. Fortunately, Abigail grabbed his shoulder.

"C'mon, Nate. Be careful. We have to win this for Ethan. Okay?" Abigail encouraged him. She could tell that Nathan was not exposed to this kind of game. Fortunately, other players were also the same. Some of them were elites who never play a game like this.

Without waiting for Abigail to say a word, Nathan lifted the hem of his shirt, exposing half of his upper body to Abigail. He also guided her hand on his abdomen. Abigail's eyes widened in shock and her jaw dropped.

'Damn it! Why is he flexing his body to everyone!' Abigail noticed that other women were looking at Nathan's body with their lustful eyes, drooling over him. Abigail felt annoyed since lots of women were feasting on Nathan's body.

Glowering her eyes, Abigail pulled down the hem of his shirt, covering his body. "Why are you showing them your body? This is for my eyes only! I'm your girlfriend today, remember?!" Abigail reprimanded Nathan.

"You are wrong. This is not for your eyes only," Nathan retorted, smiling cheekily.

Abigail was about to lash out at him when Nathan spoke again. "This is for your hands also. As my girlfriend today, I'm giving you the opportunity to touch them." Nathan sounded playful. He was clearly teasing her and at the same time, flirting with her.

Abigail opened her mouth to say something. But no words came out of her mouth. She was too shocked to utter a word. She just blinked her eyes in amusement.

On the other hand, Nathan was satisfied to see Abigail's current expression. She looked so adorable when stunned. Nathan lifted her chin, making her close her mouth.

"A fly might enter your lips," he said teasingly, tracing the corners of her lips using his thumb.

Abigail immediately hit his hand, moving her face away from him. "Shut up!"

"Shhh! Keep your temper. We are in front of the public," Nathan whispered after leaning closer to her.

Abigail could only bite her lips, her eyebrows twitching in a deep frown. "You are such a tease."

"Dad! Stop teasing, Miss Abi!" Ethan finally intervened. Though the two were arguing, in the eyes of bystanders, they seemed like having sweet moments, enough to feed the singles some dog food.

Nathan just shrugged his shoulders and raised his hands in surrender. Two versus one. He couldn't win against Abigail's and Ethan's combined forces.

"Okay. What is our next game? I'm finally done warming up," Nathan asked his son while cracking his knuckles. He was in the mood to participate in the games.

"Tag of war and Shooting!" Ethan informed them.

Abigail and Nathan exchanged glances with one another when they heard the last game category- Shooting!

'I love it!'

Both of them were thinking of the same thing. In the end, Team Sparks dominated all the games. They won every category and were declared the undefeated family of three!

"Dad! Miss Abi. I love family day! I hope every year we can attend this kind of event!"
