Let's break up
George POV
I heard everything, I felt cold and crying deep inside. I call Lucas.
Ring Ring Ring.
"Get me out of here."
Lucas came back and pick me up. I seat in the back seat. I knew at the first glance that they are something about them. I just only met Marco today but I can tell the atmosphere around us three are suspicious. The way Andrei praises Marco is way beyond as a best of friends. Am I a hindrance in their relationship? They knew each other for so long and the fact that they loved each other since they are 15 proves I already lost. But Andrei rejected the offer of studying abroad, which means he wants us to be together. I'm lost. I start again crying in silence.
Lucas POV
I can see in the rearview mirror that he was in pain and crying. I can hear him sniffing. I drove for a two-hour drive to my apartment. He doesn't share anything in the long drive and I didn't hear him talk. He was lost in his thoughts. I don't know what happens but I can feel that something huge happens there. I didn't question him, I just serve him at my apartment. Warm milk and gave it to him and serve him a late dinner snack. But he rejected it and went to the room I prepare for him.
Andrei POV
It's very late. George never came, he won't answer my calls or text and was not in his apartment. I'm kinda confused and worried about what happens to the 9-month pregnant love of my life. I'm scared and I couldn't sleep, all I can think about is him. Marco is resting in one of the rooms in the hotel. I'm in my room, I pull my drawer and lifted a small box. Opened it and a pull-out engagement ring. He's my everything and I want him to know that I will love him for the rest of my life. I'm going to ask him to marry me, I already plan to propose one of these days because I wanted to be the father of his child. And Right now, I had my doubts trouble me.
George POV
56 miscalls, 35 text messages, I received from Andrei. He must be sickly worried. I replied to him.
"I'm okay, Let's talk after I'm back. I had an early meeting with my father today."He texted back,
" I'll wait for you, I LOVE YOU, DOLL."
After I read his reply, my heart calms. I change of clothes that Lucas prepared and we drove to my father's place. The place hasn't changed. I still feel like being choked every time I step on this place. Lucas held my hands, I look at him, I assure him that I can handle this. I need to protect my daughter. I won't let him destroy me again. We went to his office, I gathered my guts and went inside.
" Hi Dad," I greeted him. He stares at my belly."Sit down," I and Lucas both seated,
" We will proceed with the marriage as soon as you gave birth,"
"Sir," Lucas retort. I stop him. " Dad, I'm not marrying Lucas."
He replied, "Are you out of your mind? Are you putting disgrace to this family again?"
"Again?! When did I disobey you or disgrace this family? I NEVER DID. I'm always the good son who keeps asking for your approval but... not today. I came here to tell you that Lucas is not the father of my child and I'm leaving this family officially."
BANG! He smashes his cup and a small piece of the cup hits my face. Blood drips on my face. I chuckle. Dad looks at me perplexed. "Dad, I always imagined that every time I came to see you, you will spread your arms openly and apologize... I'm your son too but I always feel like I'm an orphan. It hurts to be home, I feel I was choked day by day... I'm suffering because of you."
SLAP. He slaps me. He was very angry. His face is red. He clenches his fist and was about to hit me again. Lucas stops his fist. The cut in my face gets bigger and the blood dripping won't stop. I didn't felt the cut but rather I feel more hurt inside. I smiled and said,
"Dad, you never cease to amaze me, THIS IS THE REASON WHY I'M NOT COMING BACK TO THIS FAMILY! I GROW UP LOOKING LIKE YOU AND I'M SCARED THAT I BECOME LIKE YOU! I WON'T LET MY DAUGHTER SUFFER LIKE ME."
HA HA HAHA. Dad laughed, "I DON"T NEED A SON LIKE YOU! GET OUT OF HERE! YOU ARE THE SAME AS YOUR SLUT MOTHER! YOU DON'T HAVE A RESPECT!"
I can't help it, I cried in anger, "DON'T PUT MY MOTHER INTO THIS! YOU WERE NEVER BEEN A GOOD HUSBAND TO HER! YOU CONTROL, MANIPULATE AND ABUSE THE EVERYDAY OF HER LIFE. She died loving you and she put me into believing that you will love me back too. I had enough!" I stand up from my seat, wipe my tears and blood in my face, "DON'T LOOK FOR ME, TREAT ME AS DEAD AND I'LL DO THE SAME." I walked out of the room. I feel lighter and it wasn't bad as I thought it could be. Finally, escape from the curse of this family. I hear Lucas running, "Are you really pregnant?" catching his breath. He grabs my face and kisses my forehead. " I'M SO PROUD OF YOU!" I smiled brightly at him.
"Let's go to the hospital."
We went to the hospital, I keep telling him that it is only a small cut. However, the doctor did a full check-up. "Your face is swollen and I'm happy the baby is okay. You've been crying since yesterday..." he said worriedly.
"I'm okay," I assure him.
"Can you drop me again at the hotel?"
"Yes, whatever your decision, I'll always be here."
Andrei POV
I was feeling nervous thru out the day. I don't know why but I am anxious. I was waiting for George all day, he texted me to see him at the Hotel. I was waiting in my room, I heard my door creaks.
"Hi." George greeted me. I went near him and kiss him on his cheeks.
"Please sit down." I enthusiasm welcoming him.
"Uhm...It's okay, I won't take long."
"Huh? Where are you going? I'm planning we could stay all night here." nervously replied.
"Yesterday...Lucas and I talked and decided to start it all over again..."
I was trembling. My heart shudders.
"I really like you and I'm glad we've gotten to know each other...but let's break up."
Tears fall down my cheeks. I couldn't utter a word at all. I feel I was cut, crack, and painfully hurt. At the back of my head, I knew that this will happen but I continue believing that I should trust the love of George to me.
"I'm sorry if this isn't the way you wanted things to be but my daughter needed his father."
"BYE." George walks out the door.
I grab him and hug his back so tightly.
"Only with you, I can feel genuine love, I know your love for me is pure and true, I need you too. George...doll...I love you so much... Don't leave me."
He disengages my embrace and disappears from my sight. Then I was drowning from my tears. My heart was beaten, defeated by a war that I know that I won't win from the start. I fell from my knees, I was in sorrow, crying and begging him in my thoughts for him to come back.
I got up and ran to catch up with George.
I froze up, I saw him hugging his fiance. It breaks my heart more seeing them together. For eight months being together, I thought our love will last forever. I knew he is the one but I guess I am not the one he dreams of. All I want today is to cry and scream in my heart's content to let it out because I feel like I am dying.
I WANT TO DIE.
