40 Don't Confess!


"Rome!"


Rara looked over as her name was called. The old man who had met him at that time, now appeared to him again. Rara thought the man never showed up again.


"Don't go, can we talk alone?"


Rara could see the sadness from the man, which made herself feel uncomfortable, but her feet stepped following the man, going inside the cafe in the mall.


"Dad misses you so much, dear."


The words that made Rara's heart churn. Both his legs and hands were shaking. He wanted to leave, but his body felt heavy.


"How's kaju doing, honey? Have you never missed me all this time?"


"I ... don't have a father!"


The man immediately flinched. It was so painful to hear when her own son told her in front of him that he had no father.


"I don't have a father" Rara said again, slowly.


Rara herself never remembers who her father was, and where or where his father was.


Rara squeezed her hands, biting her lips and agitated her legs. His eyes glanced left right, with a pale face and cold sweat.


"Darling, are you okay?" The man who until now Rara did not know what her name was, held Rara's hand. Rara immediately pulled her hand from the person's grip.


His eyes glanced at the man before him, a face that looked tired and held a lot of weight. All of a sudden it made her think of her mother. There are times, Rara secretly notices her mother who also looks tired, but tries to close her from Rara.


The food and drinks ordered have arrived.


The man drank his black coffee, then went back to see the beautiful face of his son.


"Dad is happy to see your success now, and very proud."


The man pulled the wallet out of his pants pocket, and took out something that Rara thought was a small-sized photo.


"It's you and dad when you were a kid."


Rara saw a very cute photo of a baby girl. Cheeks with pure white skin. His eyes were round black, and his lips red.


The man who was carrying him looked very young, and so handsome.


All this makes Rara wonder in her heart, if indeed she still has a father, why did her mother never tell her?


Have they divorced?


Rara shook her head. Her tears just flow.


One thing he thought about ....


This man before her must have hurt her mother. She left her mother and herself. Making Rara and her mother live alone, fighting together without a male figure that should be a protector for both of them.


Rara is feeling hurt!


"You're not my father. Don't call me son!"


Rara had already made up her mind, she would not trust the man. After all, she was not sure that the baby girl in the photo was her. She didn't know her face when she was a baby.


"How can you believe it, dear? Do you want us to do a DNA test?"


"You don't have the right to do any tests on me. All I deserve is my mother. My mother raised me alone. Who looks after and loves me, not you or any other man who suddenly claims to be my father!"


The man lowered his head, the more certain I was that none of this would be easy.
