"Rose.. I. want to tell you something."
"O yeah? What'sthat?" I - - with great enthusiasm.
"This," he said. James took out a brown envelope from his suit pocket. "This is your check yesterday. Sorry, I had to cover this up from you. I'm just afraid that if you find out about this, you...."
The deg!
"Ak-me... Am I sick? What's my pain?"
"You're not sick. Just read it."
"You're scaring me."
Shaking, I opened the envelope and opened the paper inside. My test result: pregnant positive.
"Yes God! Me...?"
"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to get you pregnant. I'm mistaken. I know I'm wrong."
"Why...? Why is it like this? Why me...?" I shouldn't have gotten pregnant this fast. My relationship with Bang Jack is not okay. How's now? But I can't possibly refuse this child. My kid. But....
James took my hand. He looks at me softly. "If Jack is not willing to accept this child, I will, Rose. I will take responsibility for my mistakes. I promise."
I know Bang Jack can't possibly turn down this kid. His son. I'm sure this is his son. But I, I am feeling unworthy to be loved by her, let alone marry Bang Jack in the near future. How'this? L'm....
"Rose...?"
I'm shaking. "Bang Jack couldn't possibly reject this kid. But...."
"Let me know whatever happens. I will always be there for you. It's all my fault and I'll take responsibility. Don't worry, huh? There's me."
It's not your fault, James. It's my own carelessness. You just caused the first moment. But this child, out of no where moment did this seed grow in my womb.
"Rose.." -...."
"I'll find my own way out."
"But-"
"Your job goes back to your family. That's it."
Tacit. James bowed with his guilt and regret. But despite all the causes of this pregnancy, I feel sorry for this child. She had to grow up in the womb of a woman like me, at the wrong time, anyway.
Why is my life this bad? Oh, my God, don't make this kid feel my misfortune. Please, God....
I took a deep breath and I nodded. "thank you. I believe you."
"Don't abort, please?"
"Huh?"
"Please...?"
"No. There's no way I'm doing that."
"thank you. I will always be there for you."
"Yes. Continue.. Just continue your breakfast until it runs out."
Arrrrgggh...! I really don't think it out. Solve problem one, instead a new problem arises.
"Rilex. Pregnant women should not be stressed. Yea?"
Ah, that look, that's how James cares now for me. Love is coming too late.
"Rose...?"
"Yes, My James. Yeah...."
"Good." He smiled and fed me again. "It is now my turn to ask. What can?"
W.. What does he want to ask? But I can't dodge. "Okay," I said. "What do you want to ask?"
"If in this life, I mean in the future, not the present. Emm... If we are destined to live alone, whether at what age, are you willing to be my wife again?"
This time I want to laugh. I have a silly answer for him. I also cleared my throat. "Depends, yes," I said. "How old are you when you're a widower. If you're already aki-aki, when do I make a husband? Is it still strong?"
Haha!
James is with me. I'm glad to see him laughing. In fact, he pinched my cheek fondly.
"Don't change again, huh? I like James now. I'm happy for you."
He's nodding. "I promise," he said.
This is truly a miracle. I'm very happy. In my eyes, James was no longer a monster let alone a demon. He is now a good man and a perfect father. I'm sure he'll love his kids like my dad loved me. The perfect father.
Yeah. Love can change everything. Although the path I have to take all this time is very steep, but I am happy for a happy ending.
