My Little Sunshine

Five years later,

"Where do you think you are running?" Stella yelled at the top of her lungs as she made her way across the corridor. To say that she was sprinting like a rabbit wouldn't be wrong. Her eyes were fixed on the little figure clad in a baby pink frilly frock which reached only to her knees and was running before her. "Even your father cannot save you this time from my wrath."

The little girl didn't look any less than a living doll with the locks of her black wavy hair framing her small face which could easily be covered by a grown man's palm. Her hair reached her shoulders only with a couple of fringes covering her forehead which only made her hazel eyes stand out more. Her porcelain skin was as flawless with a slight tinge of pink hugging her cheeks. 

A wave of giggles were heard which resonated throughout the empty hallway. The little figure made a turn to her right only to be followed by her mother who was breathing out fire. "Ella! Stop right there." 

Stella followed her daughter around the turn only to find the hallway empty. She let her eyes roam around the empty corridor, not leaving the stands which were standing proudly and supporting the huge vases resting on the. "You think that you can hide from me, Estrella Adam."

She walked towards one of the ceramic stands with slow and steady steps as her eyes caught the baby pink frills peeking out from the side. "I see something pink." Stella muttered out, the corners of her lips curling up in a smile. 

Another wave of giggles were heard the moment Stella arrived next to the stand. She tilted her head to the side and looked at the figure of her daughter squeezed in between the wall and the pedestal. She was about to bend forward and pick her daughter up when the little devil ran away once again. 

Stella turned around just in time to see her climbing up in her husband's arms. 

"Dadda." Estrella squealed in delight as her father picked her up. Even a blin person could tell how much she was pampered by her father. The smiles embracing the faces of the father and daughter duo was more than enough to give it away.

"And what is this time that my wife and daughter are running around the house again?" Adam haved out a sigh as his eyes jumped from Stella to the little one in his arms. "Nevermind, I can tell." His words were followed by a chuckle as he wiped off his daughter's mouth using the sleeves of his white shirt. 

Estrella's entire face was covered in chocolate, especially the skin around her mouth. Her small palms were not clean either previously, but they looked better now that most of the chocolate was smeared over Adam's shirt. But the man could care any less about his designer shirt. His eyes were glued to his daughter's face which was brimming with joy. contemporary romance

"WIll you please scold your little princess a little? She ate the batter I was preparing for the chocolate flavored cupcakes she has been craving for. I have to start from the scratch now." Stella pursed her lips in a pout as she complained to him. 

Despite having a bunch of maids and servants, she loved to cook for her family on weekends. Her daughter had been eating her ears away for the last two days, demanding her to bake her favorite cupcakes. Stella had asked the head cook to do so, but the spoiled princess of the family refused to eat the ones baked by him. She wanted to eat the ones made by Stella.

Now that it was Saturday, Stella thought of making some for her. She insisted on helping her out on the process. Despite knowing that it would turn out to be a disaster, she couldn't bring herself to say no to her puppy eyes. And just like she had predicted, her little devil ate the batter when she walked out of the kitchen to take a call. 

When she returned back to the kitchen, the entire counter was a mess with a maid standing next to it with her head bowed down. It didn't take her long to realize which storm had hit the place as her eyes trailed to the empty kitchen stool where her daughter was supposed to be.

"Let's make it again." Adam patted the top of her daughter's head before giving Stella a pleading look. "I will help you." He added to make his offer look more appealing. 

Stella heaved out a tired sigh before she nodded her head in a yes. Why was it only her who had to give in to everyone's demands? 

"But you need to go and change your shirt first. I don't want my maids to think that their Boss is tortured by the mother and daughter duo when it's the other way around." She shook her head helplessly before covering the distance between them. 

Taking the little devil into her arms, Stella kissed her cheek. "Let's get you cleaned too." She muttered as she squeezed her cheeks. 

"Where's my kiss?" She was about to walk away when Adam spoke up in protest. 

"No kiss for my dear husband who's so smitten by our daughter." She shook her head in a no and was about to continue with her steps when two arms found their way around her waist. 

"I don't like hearing a no from my wife." He pursed his lips in a pout as he pulled her closer.

"I will give Dadda a kiss." Estrella spoke up in her joyful tone before a loud smack was heard as her lips made contact with Adam's cheek.

"Thanks, Ella. But your Dadda wants a kiss from your Momma too." He shifted his attention back to the lady in his arms after kissing her daughter's cheeks in return. 

"Momma should kiss Dadda." She bobbed her head up and down before covering her eyes with her palms. "You can kiss Dadda now. Ella is not seeing anything." She let out a couple of giggles.

"See, even our daughter is saying that I should get a kiss." Adam leaned his face in. just when his lips were to land on Stella's, a loud bang was heard before all the lights of the hallway went out. Though it barely took the back up generator to kick in and the lights flickered on. 

"Carlisle Adam! What are you upto now?"
