Naughty Girl Owns Hot Daddy
Chapter 278

Tok ... tok ....

Shakila knocks on Joe's door while asking for permission to enter the man.

"Dad, it's Kila. Can I come in?"

"Come in, Shakila."

Joe's voice came from inside the room. Slowly Shakila pushed the door forward as she stepped inside.

"Hi, Dad!" greet Shakila while sharing a warm smile for the man who is now sitting on the sofa. Joe is not alone, he is with his wife, Sofia.

"Sit down" Joe said.

Joe patted the empty space beside him and ordered Shakila to sit down at the spot. Sofia complies, dropping herself next to Mr. Joe who is then flanked by Sofia.

"Mom's? What's the matter, actually?" shakila asked in surprise because the look on the faces of her parents looked sad, not as usual.

Joe grabbed the face of Shakila who was watching Sofia's expression that looked very sad.

"Shakila, Daddy wants to tell you a secret today. A secret that might make you disappointed and also angry with us" said Joe.

"His secret ... what secret, Dad?" shakila asked who was starting to get curious.

"It's about your past, Shakila. Daddy thinks this is a good time to say it all. But Daddy wanted to apologize if the words coming out of Daddy's mouth would upset you."

"Daddy why, anyway?"

"Listen to your Daddy, Kila."

Sofia hugs Shakila's body before Joe starts telling Shakila the truth. The girl finally chose silence and began to put her ears on so that she could hear clearly what her Daddy was trying to say.

"Kila, 20 years ago. A few days before Marvel and Melvin's second birthday, Daddy met you at an orphanage. You were only a few days old then. Mommy fell in love with you the first time she saw you, Kila. Daddy's too. Until finally Mommy and Daddy decided to adopt you."

"W-what's this? You guys must be kidding, right? I-this is really not funny, Dad!" annoyed Shakila who then noticed the expression on the sad faces of Mr. Joe and Sofia at that time.

"I'm sorry, son. But, that's the reality" said Mr. Joe.

"It's really not funny!"

Shakila got up from her seat then ran away and left the room sobbing.

"Shakila, listen to Daddy! Daddy's not done talking."

However, Shakila was unwilling to listen to anything that Mr. Joe had said back then. He was really disappointed and hoped that what the man said was just a lie deliberately created by him. Shakila continued to move quickly while wiping the tears that were still coming out of her eye patch.

"Sister Kila? Kika why?" lea asked in confusion as Shakila passed by while crying.

"What's really going on, Mom? Why are you guys fighting all this? Why isn't Lea being invited?" ask Lea.

"Hush! Who is crying. There's dust going into Mommy's eyes, so Mommy's eyes are watery. Is there anyone crying? You are there" said Sofia who then returned to follow Shakila.

"Yes, that's it."

"Sofia, leave him alone. He needs time to accept everything" Joe said.

Sofia breaks her intention and approaches Joe and hugs him. "How is this, Mum. I'm afraid Shakila can't take it and hates us."

"No way, trust me. Shakila can definitely take it, just like Aira."

"What are they talking about, anyway? I'm so confused?!" Lea scratched her non-itchy head while watching Mommy and Daddy.

Shakila ran into Mr. Marcello's magnificent building and wanted to hide there for a while. He wanted to calm himself down in order to think clearly just like before. As she ran, Shakila accidentally hit Marissa who wanted to go to her room.

"Shakila, what's wrong with you?" Marissa approached Shakila and noticed her sad face.

"Mommy Icha, Shakila ...."

Shakila sobbed in Marissa's arms and Marissa hurried to lead the girl to the sofa and sat her there.

"Shakila, tell Mommy everything what made you this way" said Marissa as she stared fixedly at Shakila's beautiful eyes.

Slowly Shakila began to tell him everything that Mr. Joe had told her. The girl sobbed as she told that and made Marissa so pitying.

"What's Daddy saying is true, Mom? No, right? They must be lying, right?" said it.

Marissa exhaled heavily then hugged the girl.

"You're not alone, Shakila. Mommy once felt what you feel now. Do you know, Mommy was also an adopted child who was taken from an orphanage and the funny thing is we both came from the same orphanage, Shakila. You and Mommy!" sahut Marissa's.

Shakila wiped her tears. "Ja-so that's right? Shakila's just a pick-up kid taken from an orphanage?"

"Let's love, you're actually the luckiest baby. Out there, there are still many Shakila-Shakila whose fate is not as lucky as you. They are abandoned and no one wants them. But, look at you. Everyone loves you, Shakila. Not only do Mr. Joe and Sofia, even Mommy Icha and Daddy Marcello want you so much, it's just that we relented because Daddy Joe and Mommy Sofia did not have a child yet. And now look at them, did your Mommy and Daddy change after they had a child? No, right? They love you, Shakila. And that's more important than anything," Marissa said, gently rubbing Shakila's hair.

Shakila was speechless and Marissa's words back then completely seeped into her heart. He again leaned his head against Marissa's chest which was still tightly hugging her body.

"But, Kila is still sad, Mom. My heart still cannot accept this painful reality" Shakila said.

"Yes, Mommy understands. Mommy used to need time to accept that fact. But, Mommy does not blame anyone, Mommy considers all of it is Mommy's destiny and inevitably, Mommy must accept it with sincerity."
