Purple Dawn Till Dusk: Dearest through the time

Three months later.

After all the chaotic in the Kingdom of Azura and the coronation of the new Emperor, Xiao Tianyao was very busy to help his brother to establish his new regime.

There were a lot of things to be changed. As the result of the war, the three big cities needed to refurbish. Aside from that, Xiao Tianyao was also needed to strengthen their Military power.

The Kingdom of Xinghe's territory was given back to Qi Xunyi as the last heir of the royal family. Everybody seemingly having enough on one plate as they were very busy to do their task.

Except a lazy pregnant lady who had just awake after the sun had glared brightly.

Xiao Mugi was running after her when she was eating her breakfast, or lunch.

"Father is going out of the city, let's go outside!" He whispered at her.

Unfortunately for Xiao Tianyao, both of them have a habit to sneak out of the Xiao's mansion. The last time they did that because he was very busy in the palace and couldn't attend Xiao Mugi's birthday celebration.

They didn't throw a party as that wasn't the right time to do that. There were many people suffered because of the war, so it didn't seem appropriate.

Xiao Mugi didn't complain about that, but when Xiao Tianyao couldn't come home at his birthday, he was throwing tantrum.

To appease him, Senja brought him to go out of the mansion, because she knew the boy was like her, both of them didn't like to stay inside the mansion.

But, all of that ended up pretty bad. Xiao Tianyao turned the capital city upside down to find them.

"Let's go!" Senja smiled cheekily and finished her food. She rubbed her slightly bump tummy.

Strangely, the baby was very healthy despite the mother was very active. Every time the doctor checked on her, there was nothing should be worried about.

Senja also didn't have a morning sick like Qianru and could eat anything.

"Where exactly both of you will go?"

Suddenly a cold voice sounded from behind them. He was kneading his forehead when Senja latched her arms around his waist to appease his anger while his son was looking at him with innocent eyes.

"Mugi said you will go out of the city…" Senja talked with a soft voice, trying to distract him. "Why didn't you tell me…?"

"I told you, but you were sleeping at that time." Xiao Tianyao answered helplessly. "So, where are you two going?" His voice turned stern.

"Nowhere…" Like on cue, both of them shook their head.

"Both of you will not going anywhere?"

"No…"

"What a pity, I comeback to ask the two of you if you want to come with me… unfortunately, both of you prefer to stay."

"No! No! I want to go!" Xiao Mugi cried and latched on his father legs, lifting his small head and looked at him eagerly. He obviously learnt this from Senja.

"Oh, I thought you don't want to go." Xiao Tianyao remarked and glared at his son who was telling Senja about his departure.

"No… I want…" Xiao Mugi pleaded.

"I…" Senja was about to say something when she felt something on her lower abdomen. Out of instinct she clutched her stomach with furrowed brows.

"What happen?!" Xiao Tianyao alerted with her uncomfortable movement as he held Senja shoulder and sat her down. "Tell me Senja, what happen!?" he was panic when she didn't say anything.

"I will call the doctor." Xiao Mugi was about to run out of the room when Senja stopped him.

"No. no need."

The boy halted and looked at Senja and his father back and forth. Only after his father nodded, he walked back toward her.

"Come here." Senja waved her hand at Xiao Mugi to come closer.

Hesitantly, he walked closer to her.

"Senja, what is it?" Xiao Tianyao asked impatiently.

"It's alright."

"It's not look alright for me." He said gruffly.

Xiao Mugi was standing in front of Senja while Xiao Tianyao sat beside her, supporting her back.

"It's alright… the baby just kicked me." Senja informed them, happiness radiated from her body and voice.

Senja brought Xiao Tianyao's hand and put on the top of her stomach, a faint movement felt on his palm.

"Let me feel it also!" Xiao Mugi removed his father hand from Senja's stomach and placed his small palm on the same place, but he could feel nothing. Frowning. "The baby didn't move…" He complained.

"Over here…" Senja moved his small hand to the side as the baby moved again.

"The baby is kicking!" He exclaimed.

Senja and Xiao Tianyao chuckled when they saw the boy looking very surprised.

The boy black eyes glimmered with amazement as he place his head softly on Senja stomach and whispered.

"Hey, I am your brother."
