The Destiny of a Substitute Mother
Chapters. 129

"We got married under the hand. My parents don't approve. They're evicting me. Then I lived in a simple contract with your father. We were happy and I was even pregnant young at the time. Until one day your father didn't come for days. I looked for her on duty and her friend said she was taking a few days off. They know who I am so they don't want to be straightforward."

"I went to his house." Linda then held her chest that felt tight. It's been years, but it's still hurting him.

"Your father is with his family. They look happy. I'm jealous but I'm self-conscious that I'm the destroyer of their happiness until your father's family finds out. I saw your father's son look happy in his cradle. Instantly, I didn't want to take that happiness and smile away from her. That wouldn't be fair to him, would it?"

Dee nodded.

"Your father saw me but I ran away from it quickly. At that time I didn't know where to go. Coming home to that rented house was like making me feel more guilty because your father would have gone back there."

"I decided to go back home and apologize to my family. They accepted me on condition that I should abort you. I didn't reject it hard. Then my father gave me another option if I wanted to keep you then you should be thrown away."

"Say I'm too weak to fight it while hoping my parents will pity and not throw you away someday. So I accept the second choice."

"After you're born, I can still hold you until my father takes you out of my arms. I begged him not to take you but he kept taking you away from me. I have no power to defend you."

"Sorry Dee, if I hadn't gone back to my parents and survived with you we wouldn't have separated and you wouldn't have lived this hard. I'm sorry I was so selfish that you suffered for what I did."

Dee was speechless unable to say anything. Mind fucked.

"Why don't you try to find me?" ask Dee.

"I've tried it's just that your grandfather threatened to take my name out of the extended family until I brought you back home. It was only after your grandfather became seriously ill and was about to die that he told you where he once threw you."

"After that, I looked for you and we met at the funeral."

Dee nodded. Dee realized that if it wasn't just her who was suffering from her mother it would also be very sad. He can see it.

"I'm glad we met again and you've been able to live happily with your family. I'm proud of you. At least, I won't worry about your next fate because you have a husband who loves you and children who love you."

"I can only pray that you can always be in God's protection and be happy."

"It looks like it's here. Actually I still want to talk a lot with you just if you don't like it, I won't force you. I'm gonna go. If you're looking for me you'll know where to go."

Linda then got up. He sighed in relief this time and smiled at Dee.

"Dee can I ask you one thing?"

"What?" tanya Dee choked.

"May I hug you once, I only hugged when you were born and now I want to do it again. I'll remember this my whole life."

Dee nodded. Linda hugged Dee tightly, kissing her hair deep. Dee held back her hand not to return the hug.

"Stay happy, son," Linda prayed once more.

After that, Linda let go of her hug heavily. Looked at Dee's face and smiled.

"Thank you, I'll carry these memories with me until I die."

Linda turned her body.

"Are you going to leave me again after finding me?'' dee's words surprised Linda. He turned his body and smiled widely.

"No, of course I won't leave you. I'll be here if you want me to. My son," said Linda again hugging Dee.

The atmosphere was very strong in the room. Kane who was looking from the monitor room was moved. He remembered his mother whom he had forgotten all along. Why did the woman never look for him after leaving.

David who just came home from outside saw it. He approached. "Why not just give it to loundry?" said.

"It's just a little, after all I'm still reluctant to get out of the house." Rosemary was ashamed of the tragedy that had befallen her. People will insult him.

"Can you or can't you?" ask David. Rosemary shook her head. David then worked on it.

"Why don't you take me for a housekeeper."

"This house is small, we can take care of together. Besides, you don't like it when someone touches your valuables."

"But your comfort is more important."

"I'm more comfortable like this. No one bothers me because I also need peace."

David smiled happily. He then turned off the hose after the water in the sink was full. "Give soap and turn"

"Just like this" said Rosemary. David nodded.

"What do you want to eat? Let me order that."

"I don't know what to eat."

"How about I cook," said David. "Oh but my hands can't do anything yet we're forced to order food."

"Can you cook?"

"Yes, back when I was in college in England, I lived alone and I enjoyed my solitude. Nobody calls me Young Master and nobody follows me. It feels free."

"I never do anything myself."

"I know you've been living like a princess all this time but you're a princess because you were once the beauty of this country."

"It was then, now it's not what it used to be" Rosemary said sadly.

"Now you're still pretty."

Rosemary's face flushed with embarrassment. He was used to being praised by people. David used to say this when they were together, but this time it felt different.

"Your face looks more dazzling like that when embarrassed" David added. The man is a master seducer so women are in many places. He was always not short of women anywhere. And the action in bed can always make Rosemary hot cold and lulled into the sky.

Remembering that makes Rosemary's heart beat. It's been a long time maybe three months they weren't together and did it.

"Where have you been all day?" ask Rosemary. Maybe he went to meet another woman.

"I met a friend" David said.

"Friends lady?"

"You don't get jealous like that. Just some guy friends. I was looking for a job and unfortunately no one believed me. They think I'm lying. After all who would accept me to be their employee."

"I'm not jealous" said Rosemary.

"If I'm jealous, I'd prefer it" said David approaching Rosemary until their faces were only a few inches away.

"Rose, I miss our old time together. Are you too?" ask David frankly.
