Way Back To You
Second Chance

“Thanks a lot Bob.”

Hanna took off her seatbelt and looked at Bobby after the two arrived home. Bobby just nodded his head while smiling at Hanna.

“I'll pick you up tomorrow.”

“Do not..”

Hanna nodded in disapproval. If Bobby takes her every day, then soon the whole office will gossip about them and Hanna won't want that to happen. Especially with her pregnancy which will soon be discovered then it is certain that she will become a lip. Hanna did not want Bobby affected by the impact of his bad image in the eyes of his other staff friends.

“...i'll leave by myself.”

“But Han the distance of the stop to your house and the distance of the stop to the office is far.”

“Nothing Bob. Nice walk for pregnant women.”

Bobby can't squint anymore. Hanna was right, exercise is good for pregnant women –at least that's what she read from the pregnancy book she bought a few days ago.

“I came down ya. Be careful on the road. Thank you very much Bob.”

Hanna waved her hand as soon as she got off. And with Bobby forced to step on the gas pedal of his car and immediately drive away from Hanna's house. Though he was very hopeful for once Hanna asked him to stop for a while, because he still wanted to chat with Hanna. And also because he wants to breathe the fragrance of Hanna perfume which is a blend of musk, vanilla and also jasmine that makes Bobby really like it and want to linger with it. But it seems like Hanna doesn't want to rush things, and Bobby certainly doesn't mind.

“Bobby..” Hanna sighs.

“.. I hope you can find someone who is right for you, someone who..”.

“Ahhh..”.

Hanna screamed as someone wearing all-black clothes appeared from beside her house.

“Han, it's me..”

Liam who appeared suddenly tried to smother Hanna's mouth so that she would stop shouting and wreak havoc.

“Liam?” Hanna was half screaming. Why is he in my house?

“What are you doing here, huh? How do you get into this complex?”

Hanna had already left a message to the gate guards at the entrance of the compound so they would expel Liam if he came. How can he be here now?

“I'll say it, but can we go in first? I'm afraid someone recognizes me.”

“Do you think you are that famous?” hanna while unlocking her house.

Of course he knows that Liam is famous. He often sees Liam's ads plastered everywhere, including on some street billboards and some other billboards. He alone was too focused on his own world, unaware that Liam's images were everywhere.

“Say, why are you at my house?”

Even Hanna did not tell him to sit down. It seems like Hanna really hates it so much now –and forgets what they have done at the hotel just yet.

“When I want to enter this complex, someone greets me, I mean recognize me as Hazer, then.” Liam cleared his throat, seeing Hanna's reaction still flat.

“...then I asked for help to hitchhike in his car and bring me here after I granted his request to take a selfie together. So...here I am now –both with you.”

“Oh!”

That'sallthatis. Hanna's answer was just ‘oh’, nothing more and she still didn't allow Liam to sit down and make him not know what to do either. That's how awkward their meeting is now and that's of course Liam made it.

“Say, what do you want to come here?”

Hanna's intonation, demeanor and body gesture of standing at a distance from Liam made Liam aware that he had really hurt Hanna more than he thought. But regret is still regret and it cannot be changed anymore.

“I want to talk to you.”

“Nothing we should talk about again. I think my words in our last meeting were very clear and firm, you should understand what I mean?”

“Han.”

“But we have to finish this all. I called you but you blocked my number and I can't go back to your house either. Hanna, I'm sorry and so guilty of you. I'm sorry.”

Liam approaches Hanna and tries to persuade her as best Liam can. Almost without distance made Hanna hold her breath, then turn her eyes so that her mind and herself would no longer be entangled by the charm Liam had to admit, very deadly.

“You should know when someone blocks all access for you, it means that he does not allow you to enter his life again.”.

“I know..” Liam nodded.

“..but I just want to talk to you, about our baby. I decided to take full responsibility for you.”

“Our baby?” Hanna laughed, mocking in a low tone and in an instant her laughter disappeared from her face.

“Don't you say I slept with another man? I don't think you're amnesiac yet so you forget what you said, do you? And, the responsibility you said earlier, what are you going to do? You'll pay me every month until I give birth or you'll just pay for my delivery later? You want to show me how much money you have?”

Once again Liam heard the mocking intonation of Hanna's tone. It turned out that he was dealing with a very tough female figure, whose opinion had not changed even if he begged or knelt down. Unfortunately he hurt this tough lady too deeply that she now has to bear the consequences –the worst thing is that she will probably lose Hanna.

“Han..”.

“I think you know where to get out of it, don't you? Please go and please do not come back.”

There was no point in talking to Hanna if her emotions were still overflowing like this. All their talk will come down to one point, a big fight. That's why Liam decided to leave Hanna and promised to come back again after Hanna calmed down a little. Hope so.

“Oh, I almost forgot.”

Liam turned his head, hoping that Hanna would forgive him and ask him to sit down together, speaking four eyes from heart to heart.

“I will not hand this child over to you. I'll raise it myself so you don't have to be tired anymore to come back.”

“But Han..”.

“Out!”

Liam had just wanted to protest, but Hanna had already silenced him first. Jesus, Liam is really dealing with a woman who maintains her pride very well, and Liam likes that. For her, Hanna was the right figure to conceive her child. He was kind, innocent, polite, yet above all he was tough and defended himself well. Liam likes this kind of Hanna.

“He comes to you again? For what?”

Lona clucked in disbelief. She had come to him to confirm that Hanna did not need a man like Liam and it turned out that she still had the guts to come to Hanna.

“She said.she will take full responsibility for me and this baby.”

Hanna lowered her head, her fingers busy playing the little tassel blanket that covered her legs. In fact, he almost yelled in excitement after Liam said that he would be responsible. But Hanna will not let Liam too easily enter his life and get it –when in fact Liam has got his heart since their first meeting. Hanna has to teach him a lesson.

“So how now? What's your decision?”

“I..entahlah.” murmured Hanna.

“Han, actually after I came to Liam that time.”

“What? You came to him?” Hanna gaped in disbelief.

Lona nodded slowly. “I was an emotion, tau.” He took his breath again.

“After the meeting I knew that maybe he could not accept everything you've been through so quickly. Since he worked in the entertainment industry, there must be many factors that made it difficult for him. But now he comes to you specifically just to say if he will fulfill his duty. What...you don't feel full in the least?”

Hanna raised her face, not believing that she and Lona were as thoughtful as she would forgive Liam and accept him.

“I know it's hard for you, but try talking to him once more without any quarrels. Although there is an ego in you, you must get rid of it for the sake of the fetus in your womb. I think..that's the initial attitude that two people who will be parents should have, right?”

Hanna gave her smile and nodded slowly. He hugged Lona and thanked her inwardly many times. Lona is the kind of best friend who will defend her if she's right, but will also blame her if she's wrong. And Lona also not only blames him, but also shows the way and the way to correct his mistakes. Hanna was really grateful to have Lona by her side.

Okay, Liam. I'll give you a second chance, for the sake of our baby.
