My Gentle Boyfriend's
19 Side Story: Glen Pain and Obsession

The night was cold and silent, a pair of pitch-black eyes staring straight ahead with a bit of loneliness. His handsome face looked pensive and had various things in mind.

"Glen, don't you have a family dinner today?"

Glen's flat face jolted awake from his daydream. He looked towards the origin of the sound. Catching the handsome face of Zale who was rubbing his hair with a towel, Glen turned his eyes again with a lazy face.

"You don't want to come?" Zale guessed, not getting an answer from Glen, he re-opened his mouth "Maybe there's something important that will be discussed, if you don't come you might die of curiosity."

"Be quiet! I know that!" Glen massaged his eyelids in annoyance and said "I have a bad feeling! If I come over maybe I won't be able to go home with a straight face today!"

"I'm not in a good situation either. Maybe we need to play out" Zale sighed and sat in the corner of the sofa "Isn't tomorrow a holiday? Why don't we go out and play with Kelvin"

"Well, let's do that!" Glen nodded slowly and got up to his feet "I'll leave now!"

"Don't you want to come?"

"Shut up!" Glen glared listening to the scornful tone coming out of Zale's mouth.

No longer caring, he changed his casual clothes to more tidy clothes and left his house for a family dinner.

.......

After arriving at the front gate of his house, Glen's footsteps that had just come out of the car slowed down a bit. For some reason his heart was pounding and agitated, he did not want to hear any more bad news that would add to his tormentors. But on the other hand Glen was eager to see Aleya.

He missed the girl, it had been a long time he had not seen her or heard her voice. Glen always ignored Aleya's messages and phone calls, fearing that if she answered him she would have more trouble holding back.

But, no matter how Glen tried to make a distance from Aleya, his feelings only piled up. And now he misses her so much that he can barely hold on.

After calming his mind, Glen inhaled a breath of cold air at night until his lungs felt full. He moved his feet slowly to enter the mansion.

The first face he saw was his father, Brandon. Then little Vino and then his mother Diana. Not seeing any trace of Aleya, Glen's pounding jangtung became increasingly agitated.

"Have you come?" Brandon lightly patted his son on the shoulder gently "Look at you not even come home to visit or call me! Bad boy!"

Seeing the relaxed nature of his father, Glen's agitated heartbeat calmed down a little. He smiled and scratched the nape of his neck with a hint of guilt in sight. "Sorry my father"

"I'm just kidding! You can't even be joking around right now!" Brandon let out a slow breath looking at Glen's disheveled face. He no longer knew what to do with this son. No matter how Brandon tried to get closer to him, it was as if this brat was simply making some distance between them.

"Sister! Look at the food!" Vino pulled Glen's big hands excitedly, he kept raving "we're going to have dinner together, a really big dinner"

"Vino, don't pull your sister like that she'll fall later!" Diana advised her young son who looked excited, she looked towards Glen and smiled gently "Aleya will be coming with her lover soon. Let's sit at the dinner table and wait!"

As if a Bomb had just been activated in Glen's heart, his body stood stiff for a second before returning to normal and nodded slowly towards Diana then sat down on one of the seats.

Brandon did not say anything, he just sighed softly and sat in silence.

"Sorry we're late!" Aleya's voice sounded soft.

Glen turned his eyes towards her. There he saw the beautiful figure of Aleya who was so Loved was holding hands with a handsome man by his side.

Glen's lungs stiffened, he felt tight there, as if someone had just taken all the oxygen he had just breathed. Glen's flat face smiled lightly, he nodded after trying to win himself over to greet the man by Aleya's side.

"Look at this stupid brother!" Aleya moved forward and scrambled Glen's coarse hair furiously. Of course Glen caught his soft hand swiftly.

"Stop making me look ugly!" Glen's voice sounded simple as usual, however, if someone really noticed him. His voice seemed to tremble as if he wanted to cry.

"You know how much I miss you! I even called you many times, I also came to your place! But you didn't even reply or ask anything! Why are you so cruel to me?!" Aleya demanded angrily looking right at Glen with annoyance and a hint of longing in her eyes.

Glen paused and stared back at him, he cursed this girl before him in his heart 'Isn't it cruel here that you are Aleya!'

"What's? Wh why? Not talking?" Looking at Glen who was just silent and continued to hold his hand Aleya became even more furious.

"Well, Alyea that's enough! Maybe Glen's busy. This year is his last year in school! Don't make too much trouble. What's more, who's that guy?" Brandon mediated when he saw Glen silence, he stared at the figure that came along with Aleya

"Uncle's Night, Aunt. I'm Lucas. I'm Aleya's lover. Sorry for the interruption!" Lucas greeted politely at Brandon and Diana.

Aleya on the other hand had a sweet face that was smiling and blushing in embarrassment. Glen's hand on Aleya's hand slipped off reflexively, he turned his eyes towards Vino and endured the pain in his heart.

Brandon looked at the man before him and smiled lightly. He looked at Alela then Glen before returning to talk "Courteous young man, do not hesitate. Sit down and have dinner together!"

Everyone in the room no longer spoke many things and chose dinner in peace. They would speak a word or two and then eat the food at the table.

As for Glen he would just keep quiet throughout the meal and Focus on his dishes once in a while he would also pick up some dishes for Vino.

Unlike Aleya, she was quite noisy and spoke towards Glen and Lucas alternately. He would even take some side dishes for Glen then scold him for his weight falling.

Brandon stared silently at his son and daughter. He just sighed with pain in his head.

As the dessert was served, Lucas who did not talk much suddenly opened his voice and made everyone in the room speechless.

"Ohuk!" Glen coughed lightly, he stared at the ordinary-looking Aleya. It seems they were planning this. Seeing all the things going in this direction, Glen became even more desperate and deeply hurt.

He wanted to get out of his seat as soon as possible and disappear into the darkness of the night.

"Are you serious?" Brandon's voice sounded heavy, he looked at Aleya's face that looked unsurprised and again said "How about you Aleya?"

"We talked about it!" Aleya smiled shyly and lowered her head

Diana said nothing and just fell silent. He had heard this from Aleya before. So she told her daughter that she would only follow her husband's words. If her husband agreed then Diana would be supportive, otherwise Diana would just help him persuade a little.

Brandon massaged his eyelids lightly and again said "Aleya, are you pregnant?"

Glen's heart felt blown as his father asked Aleya with a frightening question. He already felt with the marriage sentence that he had just heard his body fall into a bottomless mud pit. But as if that wasn't enough he was also grievously burned by the sea of oil!

Aleya was surprised by her father's question, she shook her head quickly "No Dad, how did you have such thoughts?"

"Brandon?!" Diana also seemed unhappy at her husband's question.

"It's good if it's not!" Brandon let out a soft sigh, he looked at Diana with an apologetic gaze and resumed "Aleya you are too young to get married!"

Hearing his father's words, Glen felt a little better. But he knew for sure that someday Aleya would definitely belong to someone else. Inevitably Glen had to give it up and smile happily for her. Thinking of this made the brain in Glen's head feel empty, as if someone had extinguished the entire light of hope in his life!

"But we've tasted very suitable Uncle!" The silent Lucas reopened his reassuring voice "I promise to always look after Aleya, I will always make her happy and fulfill everything she needs!"

"Why are you going to meet her needs?" Brandon's voice sounded very cold. He looked at the young man before him with an unpleasant stiff face in sight

Getting such a gaze from Brandon, Lucas gulped his saliva nervously answering "My family is quite capable and I will become a President in time..."

"Well, that's enough!" Brandon interrupts and looks at Aleya's face which looks unkind "Aleya, you and your lover haven't even graduated from university but already want to get married? Are you trying to make a joke?"

"Brandon you're too hard" Diana advised, but she was stared intently by Brandon.

"You're suggesting I give my daughter to a rich college student who's still asking her parents for money?" Brandon's tone of voice sounded angry, he nodded his head at Diana and continued "Then after they graduated and he just got into the business world! Do you think it's easy to be President? Don't make me laugh! He'll just bankrupt his company!"

The entire place went silent, Diana no longer dared to open her voice. She knew her husband must be very angry right now.

Seeing that everyone did not answer to his harsh words Brandon let out a long sigh and went back to speaking more gently "Aleya I will not forbid you to marry anyone. But look at it before you get married. Find someone who is truly established and someone who truly deserves it for the rest of your life. Don't brag about marriage just out of love's sheer passion!"

"Dad..." Aleya looked at her father with a complicated look, she felt a little angry at her father's rude remark towards Lucas. But it cannot be denied that his words are true.

The banquet did not last long after what had happened, and somehow suddenly everything just passed in Glen's eyes.

Just as Glen was about to leave the house, his footsteps came to a halt at his father's request.

"Glen, why don't we just walk in the park and breathe the night air for a bit?!"

In the end the father and son walked together in the darkness of the night. They were silent for a long time and just walked to the darkness of the night that was shone by the moon and stars.

Glen was silent, his heart was agitated and nervous. He guessed what his father would say and his heart became congested. He was already in a bad state with what had just happened but it was as if it was not enough. That will continue.

"Glen," Brandon halted his footsteps, turning to look at Glen's body by his side. She wanted to cry at this moment, her son had grown up well and she had to let him go if she wanted the son to be happy.

With a hoarse voice Brandon again spoke "I will remove you from the family!"

Glen was silent, he was silent for quite a while and only looked into his father's eyes as if holding back tears.

After quite a while of silence, Glen opened his lips with a slight tremble of "Dad, I..."

"Dad knows!" Brandon nodded firmly, he squeezed Glen's shoulder firmly "Pursue what you want! I can't help much! But at least I can give you time to grow up well established and take it!"

The tears in Glen's black eyes exploded. It was flooded and falling flowed on his cheeks.

Not knowing what else to say, Glen just kept quiet and hugged his father's warm body. He was so lucky to have a great father like Brandon. He's really lucky.

"Dad, I love you so much and this family!"

"Dad knows!" Brandon nodded, he rubbed Glen's head gently "But I want you to be happy! I want you to stop holding back and feeling your way! I want Glen to be happy too! And if Glen's happiness can be achieved by doing this father will! So, no more holding back and grab what you want!"

Glen was crying harder. She always held back her feelings, but her father wanted her to go out and not hold her back. His father knew all and did not hate him, he instead gave support to Glen.

Someone who was just a stranger like Glen to ever be the son of a Brandon was a joy that could not be replaced by anything.

With his new goal and his father's strong support, the pain and burden in Glen's heart lifted.

He can go and fight for his feelings. As long as his father would support behind, Glen would not fear anything. And as for Diana, Glen would think about it later. All he needs to do now is grow up and become a person who can stand upright with a raised chest.
