"ZOEY IS YOUR DAUGHTER?".

Zoey had tricked me into a different hall, where I stood confused. I was holding onto my ball gown, trying not to sweat, so as not to ruin my make up.

I kept breathing in and out, feeling so restless already. I decided to wait for some few minutes, before finding my way out of the hall.

Just as I decided to wait a little longer, Zoey arrived at the hall with Sebastian, holding him by his right hand. I could hear some foot steps walking into the hall, but I didn't see any one.

"Zoey where have you brought me to?". He whisphered to her.

"Sshh.. you'll find out soon Cute uncle." She replied.

I could clearly hear Zoey's voice and a man's voice, but I didn't know the owner of that voice, because it was in a low tone. I looked towards my right hand side, and I could see shadows of two people. I could also hear some foot steps walking towards my direction.

Still looking at that direction, Zoey appeared with Sebastian. I lost my breath, after seeing Sebastian with her.

Zoey took him to me, while I stood before them. Sebastian was surprised seeing me in there, and wondered what I was doing at the hall Zoey had brought him into.

"Zoey why did you bring him here?". I asked her surprisedly.

"You know her too?". He asked me, while I ignored his question.

"She's my mother." Zoey revealed to him.

"He's the Cute uncle I always told you about." She exposed the secret to me.

Both of us were surprised, after hearing the revelation from Zoey's mouth and we exchanged glances flabbergastedly. I dragged Zoey to my side, scared that the truth will finally unveil itself. It was not like it was my first time of seeing Sebastian at Manchester city, but he was meeting me the third time with our child. I couldn't stand and watch myself loose guard in front of him.

"Why didn't you tell me that you had a child already?". He asked me with a rude tone.

"It's none of your business Sebastian." I responded back harshly, still a bit scared.

"Both of you are acting like you've known each other for a while." Zoey said to us.

"Let's leave here immediately." I said to Zoey.

I held her right hand, dragging her alongside with me. While I tried leaving the hall, Sebastian ran after us. He dragged me back, pulling out my hand from Zoey's hand. I was surprised at his action and I couldn't stop staring at both of them. I wondered what was going on in his head right now. Sebastian will never change from being that wild beast I have always known him to be.

"Are you going to leave just like that?". He asked me.

"I need answers Bianca. Tell me how you had another family immediately you ran away from all of us." Sebastian said like he cared about me.

"The mistake here is that, Zoey should have never met you in the first place." I said to him.

"..but mum, he has been like a father to me. I don't even have a father at the first place." Zoey said infront of him.

I almost collapsed when she said that infront of him. Sebastian was shocked on hearing that. He was really confused at the moment. I turned Zoey towards my direction, not knowing when I landed a slap on her cheek. She just gave a hint to Sebastian's craving answers to his question. Sebastian rushed to Zoey, grabbing her in his arms. Tears rolled down Zoey's cheeks, while I stood feeling so perplexed. My fears have crawled before me and I wished something would be done to save me from this whole mess.

"Did you hear her? She doesn't have a father. So tell me? Who's her father?". Sebastian asked me.

"It's none of your business, as long as she's not your daughter." I lied.

"You're really disgusting. You ran away to become a cheap slut here at Manchester." Sebastian slut shamed me.

"You'll regret this word you said someday.

Zoey will never have anything to do with you again." I said to him.

I tried dragging Zoey from him, but she refused to follow me. I didn't want to create more scene, so I decided to leave quietly. Luckily, Sebastian didn't find out the truth, about his paternity to Zoey.

Zoey and Sebastian were inside the hall alone. Sebastian watched Zoey sob, while he tried consoling her. He was still surprised that the child he loved so much, was my daughter. He couldn't just stop thinking about it.

"Why didn't you tell me she's your mother all these while?". He asked her.

"I'm really confused. I didn't know that the both of you had known each other for a while now. How's that even possible?". Zoey replied back with a question.

"Uhm..ab..out that, it is a story for another day." Sebastian stutteredly replied.

"Mum is very mad at me right now." Zoey cried out.

★★After the party★★

I returned home very pissed off, after all that happened at the party earlier. Zoey returned back home before I and Jasmine. She was already asleep in my bedroom. Jasmine had a hang over, so I already had to be patient to tell her about it the next day.

I sat infront of a wall mirror at my bedroom, wiping off my makeup with a face wipe. I was still having some flashbacks of the scene that happened at the empty hall. I had a quick flashback about the gift Sebastian had gifted me, through the cook at the party.

I poured out all the gifts inside the sack to the ground, searching for the small gift box. I saw it, picking it up immediately. I unwrapped the box and noticed it was an appreciation ring for being the mother of his new friend. I stared at the ring, unable to control my tears. I was very confused if I should throw it away or to just keep it. I placed it back into the box, throwing it into my handbag that was lying at a corner.

"I obviously don't have any clue about what to do now." I cried to myself.

**Sebastian's apartment**

"Bianca is really something else." Sebastian muttered to himself.

"She ran away from Birmingham to become a baby mama." He added.

Sebastian was really having a hard time with sleeping tonight, because his mind was overthinking things. He curled up himself on his bed, staring at the wall before him. He was so angry with himself, that he didn't realize that Zoey is my daughter. He had already grown fond of her now, to start drifting away from her.
