A love journey

Next morning.

The man held his son so dearly. He looked at the tender face and said, "Good morning my son. This is Papa and Papa loves you very much. Welcome to this world. Papa is sorry because Papa didn't welcome you yesterday"

"Are you sure?"

He was interrupted by his friend Albert.

"About what?"

"Are you sure you want to do this? Can you accept her?"

The man lowered his head to see his son.

"Yeah, I am sure about this. You know I loved her for 7 years. But I..."

"Where is my baby?" asked Sia who was standing near the door frame.

Sia was standing there for 10 minutes and was staring at her beloved man. She heard what they talked about. Even though she decided to leave him, she could not be able to hear his love for another girl again. She was afraid that she can no longer pretend. So, she interrupted them.

She walked slowly and when she was near him, she extended her arms. She meant to give the baby to her.

The man passed the baby to her and was about to talk but he was a millisecond late. Before he could talk, Sia began as she wore a graceful smile on her face.

"Thank you for your hospitality for six months. I know this is not fair for you, but can you please allow me to take him with me. I cannot live without him. I'll take him to my house. Please allow me. You can live your life peacefully. I won't disturb you. I promise"

At this time a teardrop fell from her eyes despite she continued smiling.

The man was entirely startled to see her like this.

How can he be able to see her cry in front of him? He was ready to wipe her tears but her tears flowed like a damaged tap. He felt as if an arrow was piercing through his heart. The pain he felt was more cruel to him. He never felt this much pain even when he knew about her first pregnancy yesterday.

At last, he muttered one word 'Okay' and left readily.

Sia was stunned for a moment but her tears did not stop but flowed enormously.

'He is not even willing to be with his son. How can I forget he still loves her?'

Then, she smiled politely at her doctor and left.

Inside the master bedroom.

The man could no longer hold his tears from falling. He cried. He cried in this locked room for two long hours. Endless memories overflowed in his mind. How he wished to forget those and how he wished to treasure those memories as well.

After he stopped crying, he opened a locker and took out the things that were kept hidden for a long time.

He stared at those gifts for some time and eventually, he dreamt about her.

…

It was a sunny day. A teenage gang was enjoying their precious holiday.

Two girls immersed themselves in their world so they did not notice a car which was coming towards them. But suddenly, a girl among the duo felt something was amiss and looked around her and she was startled to see the steadfast car towards them. Alarmed, she pushed her friend away. But unfortunately, she cannot move her legs. She closed her eyes in fear and stood there. She could hear her heartbeat.

Suddenly, she felt a warm body covering her body and she fell backwards. But she did not feel any pain. She opened her eyes only to see a handsome boy lying below her.

Soon Sia recovered from the shock and stood up. She helped the boy and examined him.

"Have you hurt anywhere?"

She thought to ask this but before her, the young boy asked her.

She shook her head and asked him the same question. Like her, the boy also shook his head and left. But she cannot move her legs. She was fascinated by the handsome guy and stood rooted.

Only when her friend Celine came and questioned her, did she move from there.

From that day onwards, a love journey began.

Even though they both did not study in the same school, they often met. But no one knows it was not a coincidence but the boy's plot.

Though they both did not study in the same school, did not mean they will not attend the same Universities.

The boy was admitted to the same University as her despite his family's refusal. Since he was a year older than her, he was not admitted to the same class as her. But it was fortune enough for him.

Three years passed in an instant. They both developed a strong bond between them. But no one said anything about their true feelings but it eventually increased day by day.

With their respective friends' support, they both dared to express their feelings.

Nature gave them a super opportunity as they both were invited to the Principal's daughter's birthday party.

Sia dolled herself and attended the party to confess her love.

The boy also dressed handsomely and attended the party with his friends.

Most of the people invited were their mates. So, after some chit chats, they decided to play the 'truth or dare' game.

After some trials, the boy was asked to say if he had loved anyone or to accept the dare. He stood up and smiled at Sia and said that he had been loving someone for three years.

Hearing his confession, Sia felt the whole world turned upside down. Tears struggled to flow down from her eyes. But she never let them flow in front of him. Her friend Celine consoled her and asked her to confess her feelings nevertheless. Sia also felt it right. But when she followed him, she overheard his talk with his friend.

It was only then she realized she was not enough for him.

She returned to the party hall and immersed herself in liquor. This was her first time drinking. Her friend, Celine asked her to stop but Sia refused.

Eventually, Sia dozed off.
