Chapter 382 Left Out
Arissa was dumbfounded. “Sweethearts, why did you guys lock the door?”
Are they hiding away to play games? “Hey, open the door at once!” Arissa ordered.
Inside the room, the kids looked at each other in response. Zachary quickly turned off his laptop and told the others to open the door.
Jesse diligently ran toward the door and opened it. She poked her head out and greeted, “Hi, Mommy!”
When Arissa saw Jesse beaming, she gently tapped her forehead and asked, “Did you guys lock the door to do something naughty?”
Jesse shook her head. “No! We were just changing.” She looked extremely innocent as she blinked her eyes at her mother. In fact, she could be very persuasive when needed.
Arissa picked her up and walked into the room. Indeed, the boys were halfway getting changed.
“Why are you guys only changing now?” Arissa’s gaze swept across the room. Didn’t they get back from school a while ago?
“Mommy, we were playing around just now. Only now do we have the time to change!” Jasper chuckled joyfully and got changed swiftly.
Arissa flashed a smile and didn’t think too much about it. She then took a set of clothes and helped Jesse get changed.
She was wearing the same clothes as her brothers.
When Gavin saw the others wearing the clothes, he looked slightly dismayed.
Once Arissa was done getting her daughter changed, she noticed the boy standing next to her.
“What’s the matter, Sweetheart?” she asked.
Gavin shook his head while his eyes were still fixated on his siblings.
Arissa threw a glance at the other kids, and something popped up in her mind. Immediately, she knew what was troubling Gavin.
“Sweetheart, do you want to wear the same clothes as them?” she asked.
Gavin’s eyes lit up, and he smiled bashfully. “Well, we’re siblings!”
Arissa kissed him on the cheek after smiling tenderly at him. “Yes. I’ll buy a set of those clothes for you too, Sweetheart. Okay?”
A look of anticipation crossed Gavin’s face as he looked sheepishly at Arissa.
Arissa’s heart ached at the sight of that. She hugged him tightly and uttered, “I’ll do that. You’re my sweetheart too! It’s just that I didn’t get to buy for you prior to this. From now onward, whatever your siblings have, you’ll have it too! After dinner, we’ll go out and buy, okay?”
“Yes!” Gavin was over the moon.
Jesse clapped happily and exclaimed, “We get to go shopping tonight!”
Even Zachary, Oliver, and Jasper, who were never fond of shopping, were overjoyed.
“Gavin, I have an identical set of clothes. I’ve worn it before, though. But if you don’t mind, I can lend it to you!” Zachary offered generously when he saw how Gavin kept looking at their clothes.
“I have a set as well! Do you want mine?” Oliver smiled brightly and asked.
Jasper chimed in, “Yes! I have a set too! However, the patterns on it are different.”
Not wanting to be left out, Jesse offered generously, “Gavin, me too. Do you want mine?”
Upon hearing all that, Gavin was delighted. “Thank you! I’ll wear Zachary’s!”
Zachary immediately went to take his clothes and gave them to Gavin.
After that, Gavin took off his pants and shirt and changed into them.
Arissa was gladdened when she saw the affectionate interaction among the siblings.
“You look so handsome, Sweetheart!” she praised.
Gavin blushed upon hearing that.
Arissa smiled. My son is so cute when he’s embarrassed.
“Gavin is blushing!” Jesse giggled. Her glistening eyes were curved into two beautiful crescents.
At that point, Gavin was blushing uncontrollably.
Zachary, Oliver, and Jasper found his embarrassment amusing.
“Gavin, you look like us now! So dashing!” Jasper exclaimed.
“Gavin, the clothes are comfortable, right?” Oliver added.
“Indeed!” Gavin nodded.
Zachary tapped on Gavin’s shoulder. “Luckily we’re of identical figures! You look great!”
Jasper and Oliver giggled as well. “Gavin has the same figure as us!”
