"The famous CEO with his long time girlfriend finally announced their engagement on the 10th day of July, this month--" I turned off the TV when I heard the news.
He looks happy without me. Tsk. What's wrong with me, I already know he doesn't feel the same way for me.
"6 years have passed.." I sip my coffee before I speak again "..and here I am still waiting that he would change his mind and choose me instead." What should I do? I still can't get over him. He's my first in all the memorable experiences we've shared before.
"I'm home!!" There he is, my strength in all of the battles I've faced.
He ran and hugged me.
"Hello, baby. How's school?"
"It's fun, Mommy." It's their graduation day next week.
"That's good. For now, go to your room and wash up then change, we're going to the park."
"Really, Mommy?" he looks excited.
"Yes, baby. Go on, Aunt Manager and I will wait for you here."
"Faster, baby. It's your rewards' day!"
"Thanks Mommy and Aunt Manager!"
"Careful. Don't run."
"He grow really fast. Hayst, time flies so fast."
"Yeah, and I've been thankful for having you here, Faye."
I achieved my dream and became a famous singer here in the US, they gave me the nickname 'Saddest Baby' since all of my songs are sad songs. I poured all of my emotion in all of my songs hoping that it could at least reduce the pain I felt, but I was wrong.
I've already decided to stop singing since yesterday.
"You've already decided right?"
"Yeah, I think this is the time to face everything for him. I need a stable future for him and to achieve that I need to accept my dad's offer. I'll take over my Dad's company. And I want you to be my secretary, I don't trust anyone there, I hope you consider--"
"Of course, you're my only family. I can't stay here without you, I can't even imagine my morning without Rin."
"Thank you so much, Faye."
"Don't worry about it."
"I already booked us a ticket. We can go next week."
"Yeah, sounds good... and bad."
She knows that I didn't tell Drake about us having a child.
"We won't let him know about Rin. He already had a fiancée."
"Well, we've come this far without him anyway. But still, you need to tell Rin about the truth someday. When you're ready."
Yeah, maybe someday.
We are now in the Philippines, after staying in the US for almost 7 years. I'm ready to go back home, but the thought of seeing him again, I'm not sure. I'm not ready. I'm afraid that when he knows something about Rin he would take him away from me.
I took a deep breath before I decided to open the door.
"Hello everybody, we're home!" That was quite loud.
I couldn't expect that the first person I would see after so many years was him.
What is happening here? Why are all the Herrendes family here?
"Grandma! Grandpa!" Rin runs towards mom and dad.
'I can sense the tension, here.' Faye whispered at me, all of their face was in a question mark while watching at Rin.
"How are you, baby?" Dad carries Rin. Although I already told them about the fake father of Rin, I still feel nervous.
"This is my grandson, Rin. His dad died in a car accident."
"How.. old is he?"
Shoot! I know he's going to ask that.
"He is s--"
"Dad, Rin was tired. He needs to rest. Come here, Baby." I don't want to risk it. I can't lose him.
"Mommy--"
"Let's talk in my room, baby. I have to tell you something."
I looked at Faye, she was talking to mom.
"Mommy, are you okay?"
"I'm fine baby. I'm just tired. Come here." he sits beside me in my bed.
I can't bear losing you, baby. I can't.
