Chapter 59: Chapter 59 – What is that?

"Are you feeling better now?"

"Yes... I have never felt so good before in my life. Thank you, Ben."

"You're welcome."

"But, was it really ok that you did that to me?"

"Well... It all depends on your feelings. If you didn't like it, I promise I will never do it again."

"No! I loved it. And I love you the best, Ben. I love anything you do to me."

"I feel the same. I love you very much and I loved what we did together. I guess we have an answer."

She nodded her head joyfully and continued with another question.

"But why did you do that with your mouth, at the end?"

"Well, we don't want to make a mess of your room, right? You didn't like it?"

"No, it was amazing, but wasn't it dirty?"

"There is nothing dirty about you, my precious darling."

One of his top ten over-the-top lines ended up doing well today as well, with Olivia smiling shyly at his words. He maintained their position for a while longer, caressing her head, before mentioning.

"I need to go prepare dinner, now. What are you going to do?"

"I will come with you. I like watching you cook."

"Good. We can continue playing again after the meal."

They cleaned up the place a little, Olivia putting her pajamas on again, and went down to the first floor. Benjamin started to prepare the food with his sister watching him while they had a light chat about gaming. Soon, the other members of their family arrived home one by one, going to their rooms after checking the dinner menu. When the meal was almost ready, everyone came back down, as if obeying some sort of animal instinct, and they quickly set up the table. Supper began, in the usual good mood. Benjamin checked what everyone's plan was for the following day and stopped at his grandmother's answer, which intrigued him.

"Bocce ball? What is that?"

"It's a game of throwing balls as close as possible to a smaller ball, called pallino. It's similar to bowls and pétanque. We're playing with loose rules to keep it simple. Are you interested? It's a fun game."

Just hearing about it like this didn't sound so interesting, truthfully, but since his goal was to spend time with his family members, it didn't matter what they were doing.

"Sure, why not? Is it ok for me to join again?"

"Of course. Everyone will be over the clouds to have you. They keep asking me about you all the time, you know. They really like you."

Chloe couldn't help interrupting them to give her opinion on the situation.

"Are you going to spend another Sunday with old farts, Ben? Don't you have anything better to do?"

Their grandmother didn't lose any time standing up and lifting Chloe from her chair, taking her to another room.

"Kiddo, it's time to get re-educated."

The little devil tried to escape but failed to do so and they entered the room, grandma closing the door behind them. Soon after, they could hear Chloe's cries of agony, quickly followed by her apologizing in a loud voice.

"Sorry! Sorry! I won't say stuff like that anymore!"

The noise stopped and the two of them came back, their grandmother acting as if nothing had happened and Chloe looking pitiful. Wisely, no one else chose to comment on Benjamin's plans for the following day. The meal resumed and once they were done, Benjamin and Olivia went back to play again. They decided to continue their previous saved game of H&S4 and had a lot of fun together, progressing further into the story. As it was time to separate, Olivia told him.

"Don't forget your promise, Ben. You have to come to play with me again."

"Of course, don't worry."

He kissed her one last time on her forehead and she smiled happily.

"Goodnight, love."

"Goodnight, Ben."

He went back to his room and quickly fell asleep from a fulfilling day of activities. The next morning, he once more took the opportunity to laze about in bed, knowing that his grandma wasn't an early riser. He went down late in the morning to have a tardy breakfast, eating some toast and some boiled eggs. A while later, his grandmother finally came down too, greeting him and sharing his light breakfast. When they were done, they prepared themselves for the day, putting on some clothes which were easy to move in and they left the house in her car. She drove them toward one of the biggest and most pleasant parks in the region, a place that was a bit out of town. They soon arrived and she parked at one of the park's entrances before they entered the premise together, looking around for her friends.

It didn't take long to find them, a group of three ladies sitting at one of the wood tables available for people close to the park's entrance. Heading in their direction, Vera scowled at the sight of his grandmother, just like last time. She started to open her mouth to scold her when she saw Benjamin, who was hidden behind her until then. She closed her mouth and stood up, together with Lauren who also noticed him, and the duo approached him, a large smile on their faces. Before he could do anything, the both of them hugged him on each side, giving him a big smooch, each of them on one cheek, before flooding him with their blabbering.

"It's good to see you again, angel. Have you been well? Did you eat properly since last time?"

"I missed you a lot, dear. How was your week? You should come to see us more often."

That took him by surprise, not expecting them to be suddenly so physical with him. And his grandmother didn't miss the opportunity to comment on the circumstances, as usual.

"You two are making use of the situation to be close to my poor boy, aren't you? Ben, sorry about that. When these two are fond of someone, their brains sort of short circuit and they don't think about the consequences of their actions anymore, especially since they couldn't see you for a week. I can make them stop if you don't like it."
