Tired of spending all day in the office, now is the time for Helena to return to the apartment. He lethargicly ran his legs, heading for the elevator to descend to the very ground floor where the loby was. Once in the loby, things really started to go quiet and it made the voice of people talking so clearly heard by Helena.
" Your daughter always makes me dizzy! Always whining indistinctly, I am not his father why are you demanding to love him?! "
Helena was silent, as were her footsteps. It was not his intention to eavesdrop, but the person's clear remark was that the man actually made his chest ache. His words made Helena remember the words of Melisa who was so unwilling if she had to love Velerie. Helena turned her head, looked towards the source of the voice, and it turned out that the person who said it was the President of the place where she worked. Now he was talking to the woman in front of him, and a very young child was in the woman's arms crying out.
" It's been a year since we got married, my son should be your son too right? Why are you so hard to accept her, whereas you know from the beginning choosing to marry me means having to be ready to accept my son too right? He only misses his father, who he knows you are, so please love my son as much as you love me. " Talked the woman with a sad look, looking with a pleading gaze, holding back tears but she also seemed not to dare to demand more because it seemed like she was also afraid of being removed from the position of a wife.
The president threw out his breath, coldly staring at the woman who looked so pitiful before him. The man seemed to have lost almost all interest in the woman who was his own wife.
Helena was silent to hold sad and concerned for the woman, however difficult it was indeed to find a man who could love a stepchild. This was also the main reason Helena always refused to approach any man because she did not want to make Velerie unhappy. Although it is true that at first the man will show all the attention, affection as if he is able to fill the empty place, in fact over time the feeling of disgust and boredom will appear, slowly but surely will show the original nature that has been hidden.
" You think I still have that feeling for you? Don't get me wrong, your daughter made me lose my sense of you. Now that I'm fed up, I don't want to waste any more time on you and your daughter. " Said the man making footsteps Helena who was about to step forward came to a halt. Somehow Helena feels right what she feels, she must be very sick, right? But no matter how difficult the condition, a mother will definitely choose her child, right?
" Wait! Don't be like this, please.... " The woman held the man's hand and looked back at him sadly.
" I'm gonna give my son to his real father, so don't talk like that again, okay? I'll drop this kid off soon, please don't be upset again huh? "
Helena fell silent, her eyes widened as she was completely shocked by what the woman said. For the sake of a man who was even clearly his insincere feelings, disrespecting him, he was willing to get rid of his daughter for such a man? Why would a mother do that?
Helena looked at the woman with a questionable look. Why is he so sick about what this woman is doing? Both eyes Helena met with a pair of beautiful eyes mili little girl, it must be sad, right? Though well needed is only affection, but the selfishness of both parents make the beautiful eyes look without happiness.
Not doing anything because Helena also does not want to interfere which is not her business, Helena let them all talk and just continued her footsteps with a heart that kept talking and pleaded for the little girl to get happiness soon, living in an environment that accepted it wholeheartedly.
Once at the apartment, Helena just sat quietly and did not do any blank stares, she did not want to live, but also could not die because there is one goal that must be done. But still, the apartment that presented so many memories with Velerie was as imprinted as if she could still feel Velerie there.
Tomorrow morning.
Helena fulfills a promise to meet Martin who will introduce Helena to an IT expert, she is Martin's best friend.
Helena frowned to see Martin holding a small child facing backwards so she could only see the back of him.
" Why are you holding a child? Whose son? " Task Helena while taking a position to sit opposite the table with her.
Martin sighed, but he also looked happy because of the boy, and it was evident when Martin rubbed the little boy's back.
" Yesterday her mother came to take Sofia to me, although I don't know why, the point is I don't really care why, because the most important thing is that Sofia is with me now. "
" Sofia? Sofia's your son? " Ask Helena.
Martin nodded quickly and happily.
" Sofia, let's say hello to Aunt Helena! " Pinta Martin then slowly changed the position of the little boy to make Helena can see clearly how the little girl's face.
Helena fell silent, snapped because she remembered the look in the little boy's eyes was exactly the same as the boy she saw at the Loby office yesterday afternoon. So that woman is Martin's ex-wife? The woman who left Martin to choose to live with a better man according to him.
Helena forced her smile, no! He could not afford to stare at the look of pity eyes as if asking her for help. Maybe the little girl named Sofia felt unfamiliar with Martin, she was not used to it so the look on her face looked sad and depressed. Having a stepfather who had been living with him, a stepfather who did not care, always said cynically and stared coldly made the little girl did not dare to say directly what she felt really. He wants his mother, right? She must have wanted to be in the arms of her mother who felt safe for her.
" Sofia, let's say hello to Aunt Helena! "
Sofia looks forced, she is afraid to be angry because she still thinks Martin is the same as her stepfather.
" Hello, Auntie? " Sapa Sofia though is not so clear but Helena can interpret well.
Helena smiled, I don't know.... Perhaps her heart that loved her daughter so much made her unable to see another daughter suffer that Helena unconsciously extended her hand to Sofia. Truly making Martin unable to believe it, Sofia quickly responds to Helena's helping hand that wants to take her for a carry.
Seriate.
