The 3rd Generation
Chapters. 205

"What the fuck? Why is destiny playing me. Why should I meet a woman I'm trying to forget. This can't be a coincidence. Opa Zen must know all this. He purposely united me and Faith" Zion murmured inwardly. The man was sitting in a park not far from the hospital. He deliberately ran there to calm his so messed up mind.

"Zion, I'm sorry. Mama knows what you're thinking now."

Zion carved a smile at her mother's voice then looked to the side. The man sighed to calm his mind. He even massaged the base of his nose when his head felt dizzy.

"I'm fine Ma."

"Mama knows that right now you are confused about what to make a decision. Mama admitted that it was the wrong mother here. Mama is too selfish and doesn't think about your feelings. You should not force your mother's will. Mom never wanted to marry a man she didn't love. How can you now force your Son to marry a woman he does not love. Mama knows that you still love Faith. Mama could see clearly from the way you looked at her earlier. It's like this now. Faith also comes from a good family. There's no reason for you to get in the way of your love. Today, I want to tell you that my mom has blessed your relationship with Faith. Fight Faith. Restore her heart so that she will accept you as her husband. Forgive Mama for ever disturbing the happiness of both of you."

Zion got up from the chair she was sitting in. The man walked over to Leona and hugged her. "Mama is not wrong. I'm not wrong either and Faith is not wrong because there is nothing wrong here. Fate is playing us. If only everything had been explained in the first place, this might not have happened. Even though between me and Faith there's no connection whatsoever at least I already know that woman loves me. It will be my strength to fight for it."

"Mama will help you melt Faith's heart. We'd better take a break this afternoon and we'll see the Faith family again. Zean has blessed your relationship. Looks like getting Faith won't be difficult. Dominic who might be a barrier to your relationship. That man seemed to be very vengeful when he saw you."

"Dominic did the right thing Ma. He was angry with me because I had hurt his sister. I also have a sister. I must know how he feels. I want to laugh at this moment, ma."

"Laughs? Is there anything funny?" leona asked with a very serious face.

"I still remember Austin and Foster's struggle to get my blessing. I am the one in their position. This is not called karma."

"But you never made things difficult for them. In the end, you will bless them. Looks like your path will be very easy to get Dominic's blessing," Leona said confidently.

"He doesn't have the same thoughts as me. What if he still holds a grudge against me and has the intention to separate us both."

"Did you forget that you still have a great mother. Mama will do everything she can to get you and Faith married. Your job is now only one. Make sure Faith wants to marry you then all the problems will be sorted out. Don't make Dominic an obstacle for you to unite."

"But what if Uncle Zean found out about the problems that had occurred between us. Will he forgive me?"

"If repeated again the problem that happened between you and Dominic is actually wrong is Dominic himself. Mama told you not to think about things you shouldn't think about. Now focus on breaking Faith's heart."

"Alright Ma. This time I will listen to my mother's words. I won't think of Dominic's blessing again." Zion's face looked radiant and more excited than ever. It made Leona happy too. "Thank you Ma thank you."

Leona was also happy to see her son happy. The woman again hugged Zion to encourage the man.

...***...

Dominic plays his phone while lying on the couch. Faith sat on the bed cutting off Zean's fingernails. That afternoon the room that Zean was being treated in was very quiet. There was no sound other than the clock on the wall.

Zean looked at Faith closely. The man wanted to make sure for himself that his daughter would not refuse if she was betrothed to Leona's child.

"Faith, do you have a boyfriend?" ask Zean in a quiet voice. He deliberately played down his voice because Dominic did not want to hear their conversation.

Faith shook her head. "There is no Pa. Why did you ask me that?"

"Do you love someone?"

This time Faith seemed hard to answer. But not wanting to make Zean confused, the woman chose to shake her head with a smile. "There's no Pa."

"Do you want to marry Zion?"

Faith took down the nail she had been holding. The woman glanced at Dominic who was still playing the game before looking at Zean again. "Will papa be healed if I marry Mr Zion?"

"Don't heal even Papa wants to live another thousand years so that he can see you give birth to papa's grandchildren later. You want to marry Zion? He's a very nice guy. Papa dares to guarantee because both parents are very good to papa. We've been friends for a long time."

"If you are happy, then I am happy too. I'll do whatever you want papa's origin to heal fast. But what about Aunt Leona. What if Aunt Leona disagrees if I marry Mr Zion?"

"That would be papa and Aunt Leona's business. You don't have to follow. The important thing is that you're willing to marry Zion."

Now Faith doesn't know what to do. Between happy and sad. He was happy because in the end he would soon marry the man he loved. But he was sad because he was afraid that his future in-laws would not like him. Somehow he faced his home life later if until his in-laws hated him.

"I thought of Papa's plan to travel the world. Are we gonna cancel that plan?"

Zean nodded his head. "You're right. Looks like we'll have to put off our plans to travel the world. Now there's a much more important business. You should marry Zion. Later that night when Aunt Leona comes here, you're gonna talk about your engagement to Zion."

"But I would marry Mr. Zion if Papa was cured. I wouldn't be able to leave Papa and live with Mr. Zion if Papa was still sick. Who will take care of Papa. Dominic's brother's a man. He has no talent for taking care of the sick."

"alright. Papa agrees to the terms you're proposing. Papa is very sure that soon papa will be healed. This disease will soon go and get away from papa's body."

"What are you guys talking about? Why does it look so serious?" Dominic suddenly got off the couch and walked over to Zean and Faith. "Can I join?"

"I was asking papa's favorite food. After coming home from the hospital later I will learn to cook in order to serve good food for Dominic and Kak Papa," Faith lied with a sweet smile. He didn't want Dominic to get suspicious and find out about their conversation.

"really. Then I'll help you. I'll find the best cook to teach you how to cook. Later when you are good at cooking, cook some food for me and also Papa. Still imagining it makes me hungry."

"alright. I'll cook some food for Dominic and Papa."

Suddenly the door opened and Zion appeared there. Dominic looks unhappy when he sees Zion reappearing in the room. Faith looks happy when she sees Zion again. But there was concern in his heart when he saw Zion appear. The woman was afraid that the appearance of Zion would only say a sentence of rejection. Faith did not want to be rejected a second time.

"Zion. There's something Uncle wants to talk to you about." Zean .waving his hand asked Zion to approach him.

Dominic stared intently at Zion's face before stepping away from there. The man remained standing there to hear his real father's talk with Zion.

"Did your mother tell you to come here?" asked Zean while smiling happily.

"real Uncle. My uncle told me to come here. Can I help you?" zion asked with a face expression so calm. He seemed to not care if there were now a pair of eyes that looked at him with such a sharp gaze.

"Yes, right. Didn't we both match you and Faith. So Uncle asked you to approach Faith. Take Faith around Dubai. There are so many great places in Dubai."

"Why should Zion? I can also accompany Faith to get around Dubai" Dominic said.

"You'd better stay here with papa. Let your sister go for a walk with her future husband" said Zean with a serious face.

"Prospective husband? Where does the husband come from? Not necessarily they are fools. Why did Papa say that this man was my sister's future husband?"

"They are definitely a match because papa and Aunt Leona will determine the date of their engagement. After Faith gets married papa will find a soul mate for you so you don't envy seeing your sister get married."

"Pa, it's not because of the problem that I envy seeing Faith get married. But I don't want my sister to marry a man who doesn't love her" Dominic said, as his tone grew stronger.

"Who said I don't love your sister, Sir. I loved your sister from first sight. I promise to make her happy when I marry her later."

Hearing Zion's answer makes Faith hover but the woman tries to hide her happiness. Same is the case with Zean who now looks proud to hear the answer spoken from Zion's lips.

"Are you satisfied now to hear it. They both love each other papa can see from their respective gazes and you as a brother should not block the happiness of your sister."

"but pa-"

"Faith. Go with Zion. You can get closer to each other. Go back to this place if you're satisfied with the streets." Zean looked back at Zion. "Please take care of my daughter. Don't let him be wretched because if he gets wretched I'll blame you for being so late for guarding him."

"Good Uncle. I will take care of Faith with all the lives I have. You don't have to doubt me." Zion looked at Dominic with a triumphant face. The man approached Faith to take the woman away. Confidently Zion reached out her hand to take Faith out of bed. "Let's go out for a walk," Zion asked in a romantic tone.

Faith still put on a cute face when in fact her heart was flowery. The woman welcomed Zion's hand and carefully descended. "Pa, Faith took a walk first. Faith will be back soon."

Zean just nodded. The man looked at Dominic so seriously that the son would not hinder his sister from going for a walk.

"Dam. Why do I keep losing to Zion Zein!" dominic's curse in the heart.
