The whimpering of a beautiful woman sounded up to the sky. The originally bright sky, suddenly became dark as if someone was purposely covering it. The sign of a baby will be born is known by many people. Unfortunately, they did not expect his presence.
Lachowicz, a family in a European country that has the highest standing in the country's military. Everyone was very fond of him, especially the great lord of Lachowicz, Arnold Lachowicz. The man with a large height, fierce face announced to the world his grandson who had somehow been born into the world. Everyone comes to witness it, bearing witness to the presence of baby Alex who is still being fought for by her mother.
Oeee oeeee...
The sound of the baby's crying broke. Alex has come into the world. A family fortune teller has been brought in by Arnold to predict the fate of his grandson.
"Dear Athena, what name would you give her?" Russell asked with sparkling eyes.
Russell, Alex's real father, could not hold back his tears in front of many people. Today, a big event happened. The birth of baby Alex invites various disasters including strong winds and thunderous lightning. All the citizens who came to look were made to creep in fear. They are trapped in the residence of the country's highest military force.
"Alexander Bryan Lachowicz. Nice right?" Athena Say.
Russell nodded indicating he agreed.
"Honey, I'll take our little Alex to the room first" she said.
Athena nodded weakly. As Russell was about to take Alex away with him, Arnold confronted him.
"Don't take it away. The baby leave here and let Mr. Jim check his destiny" Arnold said.
"Dad, what time is this? Why use the event predicted all? Before, nothing was foreseen. Why just my son?" Russell Protest.
"Aren't you aware of the strangeness of nature since your son was born?" Ask Arnold.
Russell thought for a moment. He looked up at the sky, it was true that the sky was completely dark at this time as if a solar eclipse had occurred, or perhaps the world was about to end. Lightning was unceasingly unpretentious to grab every thing he saw, including electricity poles and houses.
Jderrr
Everyone screamed, hugging each other. I hope this event ends soon. Russell finally agreed with his father's request. He really did not believe in any predictions about himself, his family or his son.
"Please!" Call Russell and give his son to Arnold.
"Please Mr. Jim" said Arnold.
Jim Chan, a Chinese fortune teller who was legendary in his time. Many of the nobility and the highest. Various worlds that still use his services until the 21st century. The majority of them even still believe in a prophecy. And in fact, it just so happens that all his predictions are true.
"Tch tch tch, bad." Jim squeaked as he shook his head for a moment after holding Baby Alex's veins.
"So, this baby is a man who is useless to his family, the country even to himself. He's a fucking carrier, " Jim said.
"Omong empty! This must be wrong. Dad, don't listen to him. You all are too. My son might bring you shit!" Russell was evasive.
"Mr Russell, I understand very well that you love Alex very much. But that's the fact. My prediction has not missed a single one since 20 years ago" the fortune teller assured everyone.
Athena's expression changed pias instantly. He could not believe that the child he had just born had such a bad fate. But stupidly, he believes Jim's bullshit.
"Sister, you must drive this child out of our territory!" The exclaim of Russell's sister affects everyone.
"What Mr. Steve said. Get rid of this son of a bitch!"
The anger of the people is crazy. Everyone even urged Russell to do what he hated most. How not, he had to throw away his first child after all this time he wanted it. Russell hugged baby Alex in his hand.
"No! I'm not throwing this kid away. Nor will I abandon him or expel him. He's still a baby. Now, if you were me, wouldn't you be sad?"
Everyone was flabbergasted to see Russel, who was usually so cold and had little conversation, now even fighting hard against everyone for the sake of an unlucky child.
"Athena, please help," Russell asked.
Athena moved into place. He was afraid that he would get a bad reputation and get unlucky from Alex, on the other hand he was also the same as Russel who incriminated Alex.
"Athena, what else do you think? He's your son, not someone else!" Pekik Russell who resuscitated the reverie of Athens.
Athena nodded as she answered.
What do I have to say...~Batin Athens.
"Russel, we better listen to what they say. I'm afraid we'll..."
There was no time for Athena to finish her speech. Russell had interrupted him with his disappointment.
"That's enough! I get it now. None of you love him or her more and trust this fortune teller than your own family sayings."
Russell lowered his head, clenching his left hand that was not holding Alex.
"I'd rather not believe if YOU (full of emphasis), instead follow to believe it. You're his mother, how can you do that with your son?" Ask Russell.
"Your name is Athena, beautiful as the goddess of wisdom. However, I don't know if you don't seem like it. Indeed, names do not have to be according to nature." Russell shook his head.
Fires of anger were emanating from the look of his eyes. Everyone was just mumbling, they understood exactly how Russell would be if the man was angry.
"I-I just want the best for us..."
Athena looked down, not sad, but afraid to look at her. I don't know why. After listening to the speech of the fortune teller, her sense of regret as the mother of Alex has been destroyed. Athena is reluctant to hold Alex in Russell's hands.
Russell left everyone without a word. His heart was broken hearing the answers from his family, even the wife he loved so much.
"R.... Russell," call Athena down. Yet. Russell didn't bother him at all. He wanted to chase and hug Russell, but his steps were stopped by Steve who was still standing next to him.
Five years later...
"Ahaaha. Dad, come after me!" Exclaimed Alex who was running around his pavilion.
Russel chased his son so happily that he saw Athena and Steve coming to visit them.
"Russell..." Athena called Russell Iirih.
Russell stopped his game and walked towards his wife.
"Dad, who is he?" Ask Alex.
Alex only knows Athena's name, he knows she still has a mother, but Athena never visits him until Alex grows up without her figure.
Is it time I told Alex?~Batin Russell.
Russell was silent for a moment. Sometimes he sees Alex and Athena in turn. He breathed before speaking.
"Alex, you go inside first huh. Have aunt make us a drink for our guest" Russell said.
"Okay dad," replied Alex obediently.
Athena and Steve looked at each other.
"What wind brought your steps here?" Russell half insinuated.
"I just want to see my son. I miss him" replied Athena.
"Tch." Russell squeaks. He turned his face the other way.
"Hindu? A mother who never even loved her own child can say long? Aren't you ashamed to say it?" Ask Russell.
Athena was silent. He felt slapped by Russell's remark. Without a word, Athena left from there, leaving Russell unmoved staring at their departure.
"Huftt, I don't know what else to do to you, Athena. You're getting further, it's really hard for me to reach again. I miss you the old days" murmured Russell.
