Trapped by One Night's Mistakes
Chapter 34

Prince was sitting at the bar holding a glass of wine, he was still thinking about what happened yesterday when Queen was with Jovan, he did not even pay attention to the comfort women who kept trying to tease him.

James who saw it immediately teased his best friend.

"It seems you've repented? I've noticed you haven't touched those women in a month."Ledek James's. Indeed, since his heated struggle with Queen, Prince only focused on the woman. He has no desire to see any woman.

"I don't taste." Answer Prince ketus.

"Why? Is your lust gone?"

"I'm still thinking about it. He's been playing tricks on me and lying to me, but why can't I forget?" Oceh Prince with a sad face. This is the reason that makes him always approach Queen, even though the way is wrong and always makes the woman hurt.

"So you're still thinking about that woman named Queen?" Ask James.

"I tried to look at him optimistically, but I really didn't know what he wanted. She cried and begged me to end everything, but look what she did to me! She made me feel like she was just a fun-loving woman, making me even more seduced and bad-assed in front of her." Sahut Prince's.

"I think, no matter how much you hate him and how bad you think of him but you still can't forget him, it means you're really in love with your enemy. Congratulations to you!" James was serious while patting Prince's shoulder.

Prince did not reply to James' words, he just silently flinching, trying to digest every word that came out of his best friend's mouth.

Prince finally decided to go home, and really did not taste in the bar anymore. It was different from Prince a month ago.

Prince was sitting on the balcony of his room, he was pensive while looking at the night sky. The handsome man was still thinking about James' words earlier. Prince also felt sad, because given the Queen's attitude, it seemed that the woman hated him so much.

Unknowingly her tears fell down upon imagining how complicated the universe was toying with her, she was suddenly fragile and crybaby today.

So engrossed in daydreaming, Prince was not aware of the presence of Chaiyya who was standing next to him.

"Prince ...!" Chaiyya's soft voice suddenly scattered the Prince's daydream. She was surprised to find out that she was nearby and immediately wiped her tears away before she realized.

"Hmmm .... Mammy? When did Mom come? I was shocked!" Prince forced his lipped smile.

"It seems you're too absorbed in daydreaming, to the point of not realizing Mom's arrival. Thinking about what the hell?"

"Ah .. nothing, Mom. It's just a matter of work, I'm thinking about a project I'm working on." Prince replied lying.

"Is there really a problem with your job?" Chaiyya asked worriedly.

"No, Ma. There is no. I'll take it easy." Prince forced a smile so that Chaiyya would not worry.

"Oh, thank goodness." Chaiyya was relieved.

"Mom, do you believe in love at first sight?" Ask Prince.

"What about true love? Does it really exist?" Ask Prince again.

Chaiyya was a little confused by the Prince's question, never had the son asked this kind of thing. He felt that something was going on with his beloved son.

"Why are you asking like that? Is there something in your heart? You're in love?" Chaiyya looked at the Prince's face.

"Hmmm .. I met a woman. I thought I loved her, even though I knew she had never loved me before, even now I know she hated me so much. But why can't I forget it?" Prince lirih. He felt pain in his chest.

"Prince, son. Love is many types, there is love but can not have, there are also those who can have but not really love each other and so on. But if we look at the world with an optimistic outlook, I think that woman must have a reason why she hates you."

Prince was awkward, he remembered what he had done to Queen. To take away the chastity of a drunken woman is like raping her. Queen must have been very hurt because of her depraved deeds.

"Hmmm .... Mom, do you hate the man who made me come into this world?" Carefully the Prince asked, he was afraid of offending the Mother.

Chaiyya gasped at her son's question, always avoiding Prince asking about the man who had ruined his future, so he had to be thrown out of his own family. But this time Chaiyya will not dodge again, however, Prince must know everything.

"Mommy used to hate him so much at first, even then it felt like I wanted to curse him. But ever since you were present, that feeling of hate has long since faded. I don't want to keep hating people who make you have your precious possessions, son. Your presence in Mother's life, makes Mother understand if God trusts Mother to be the parent of the child as well as you, then Mother must be strong and fight for your happiness. I don't want to get sucked into hate." Chaiyya. Clear liquid had already bathed his eyes.

"Did Mom love her?"

Chaiyya. This time he could not hold back the pace of his tears anymore, when he remembered the heartbreaking story of his life.

"There is no love between us. All just one night's fault, or rather Mother's fault for not being able to look after herself." Chaiyya.

Prince felt more awkward and guilty, especially when he saw the mother crying so sad.

Was he hurt like Mom? Does she cry like Mom?

"Mom, I'm sorry for asking that question and making you sad." Prince held Chaiyya's hand and looked at the woman who had given birth to him with a pleading gaze.

"It's okay, honey. You deserve to know everything. After all, he's still your father." Chaiyya wiped away the traces of her tears.

"No! I will never consider him my father. He doesn't deserve to be called a father." Reject Prince annoyed.

"Prince, blood is thicker than water. Until whenever you can't deny that you're flesh-blood."

"No, Ma. I still don't want to." Denying Prince. He really hated the man he should have called Father for leaving himself and the Mother without responsibility. Even Prince never knew what that man was.

Chaiyya just kept quiet, she did not want to argue with the son anymore. He knew his son must have hated the man who had ruined his life.
