"What's wrong? Say it!" urge Jethro as soon as Becca is nearby.
"I want to apologize for what happened four years ago" Becca said.
"It's too late to apologize because I don't care about what happened four years ago either." replied Jethro ketus.
Becca just sighed rough.
"As much as you care or not, I just want to say my apology. And there's one thing I want to get straight. That night I did not go with my affair, but went with my cousin. Astro is my cousin's brother." Becca said.
Jethro frowned while glancing at Becca for a moment.
"I admit, I was wrong to leave when Jacob was sick, but it was my only chance to escape from you. Back then, I was sick of living with you" Becca said.
Jethro's jaw hardened upon hearing Becca's confession.
"Why did I make you sick?!" ask Jethro.
"Didn't you feel guilty about me during our marriage, Je?" ask Becca.
Jethro shakes.
"You've already cheated on me, Je!"
"I'm craving you? Don't slander you! I never expected you!" Jethro.
"You don't want me physically, but you're beating me up in your heart and mind! I know you're still thinking about your dead ex-wife! Not even once or twice I heard you deliriously calling your ex-wife's name and most hurtfully, you never mentioned my name when we were having sex. Though I have used a thousand and one ways to make you love me, think of me, even I was willing to lower my pride by giving you stimulant drugs so that you touch me, in the hope that after we make love and I conceive your child, you will slowly forget your ex-wife and love me! But I was wrong! You never tried to love me!" reply Becca.
"really? What do you do if you learn to open your heart? With each night quietly meditating in the barn?" becca Syndir.
Becca remembers, every night after Becca slept, Jethro always went into the warehouse and locked the door of the warehouse and the next morning he just came out of the warehouse.
"I didn't suspect at all what you were doing in the barn, until I finally found out why every night you secretly went to the barn and slept there. Turns out it's not just a barn, but a place where you reminisce with your ex-wife! Is that how you try to open your heart to me? Is it possible that you can open your heart if every night you go to a secret room where all the belongings of your ex-wife are still there? I'm so sick of it all Je, sick of it, I've had a mental breakdown. Twice a week I went to a psychiatrist for a consultation, I tried my hardest to keep myself sane for my son. But it turns out I can't. Every time I've been in that apartment, I've wanted to feel like I burned down that barn but I couldn't and it drove me crazy! And that's why I decided to leave that apartment. I wanted to take Jacob with me, but I knew that to any end of the world, to any narrow hole I hid from you, you could find me. After all, my mental state was not well, and my economy was not well established, so I decided to leave Jacob with you. I want to heal my mind first and fix my new economy I'll meet you and Jacob. Even if I knew, surely you would never want to hear my explanation. But it doesn't matter to me anymore, because my appearance is not for you, but only for Jacob. I have absolutely no intention of returning with a man who is not finished with his past" Becca said at length.
Jethro was stunned to hear Becca's confession. She had no idea that Becca knew about the secret room, because Jethro never told Becca about it.
For a few minutes Jethro and Becca were silent.
"Is that girl Jacob's new Mommy candidate?" becca asked while looking at Zizi who is currently with Jacob.
Becca can ask like that because Jacob has told her a lot about Zizi.
Jethro turned his body and looked at Zizi and Jacob without answering Becca's question.
"If you want to give Jacob a new Mommy, you should start by getting rid of your ex-wife's belongings, so that no more women who are depressed like me because they have to be jealous of people who have died. Because no matter how hard you try to open your heart to other women, it will all be in vain if you still keep the belongings of your ex-wife and even you to spend the night with the belongings of your ex-wife." becca.
After saying that Becca also walked into the tavern and left Jethro who was still pecking at his place. He felt slapped with Becca's words.
