15 Years Old (The Secret)

Section 22

Adriano approached Abela and prevented his wife from leaving.

“Darling don't go, listen to me first.” Adriano.

“Let go of my hand or I'll go alone with Darel.” Said Abela.

“Alright, get in the car. I'll drop you off.” Adriano.

In the car, Abela was silent.

“Darling don't be mad at me.” Adriano said, holding his wife's hand, but she let him go.

“Let go of my hand.” Said Abela.

Then Adriano stopped his car on the side of the road.

“Why stop? Fast walk now.” Said Abela.

“Your mother is sick and she asked for my help. Her age is soon, I just want to make her happy and give her beautiful memories.” Adriano said, hugging his wife.

“Terus you believe just like that? He could have lied to you, how many times I had to tell you not to meet him once again but you secretly met him.” Said Abela.

“Imagine if you are in his position, when your condition hurts and Darel does not want to meet you, it must be very painful.” Adriano.

“Quite, I'm different with him.” Said Abela.

“She really wants to see you dear, next week she will have surgery. He wishes that you could come to see him.” Adriano.

“When he was healthy he forgot me but when he was dying like this, he was looking for me.” Said Abela.

“She's been living suffering dearly even after parting with you.” Adriano.

“Maybe it's karma for him to leave his son.” Said Abela.

“Do not fully blame your mother, try to listen to all the explanations from her.” Adriano.

“No need, I'm quite happy without him. Because of him, I lost my father.” Said Abela.

“Not everything is wrong your mother.” Adriano.

“Please if you want to see her again, but after that we will split.” Threat Abela.

“What did you say? I'm selfish? Listen carefully yes, the woman who claimed to be my mother has left me even since I was in the Elementary School, I looked for her and often called her but she didn't care. So who do you think is selfish? Me or that woman?” Said Abela.

“Alright, forgive me dear.” Adriano.

“I will forgive you if you break up with him and won't see him back.” Said Abela.

“Alright, but there is no harm if he wants to meet his grandson, Darel right. I beg you to let him see Darel before he even has surgery. If you are willing, I will take her tomorrow to the hospital because she has to undergo some treatment before surgery.” Adriano.

“Let me take Darel.” Said Abela.

“Thank you dear.” Adriano said, hugging his wife back.

Next morning.

Abela brought Darel to see his mother.

“So today we will meet oma ya ma?” Ask Darel.

“Only Darel met oma, mama can not accompany you because mama has a busy life. Papa will pick you up.” Said Abela.

“Good ma, oh yes ma I want to stop by the cake shop. I want to eat cake with oma.” Darel.

“Oma is sick so she can't eat carelessly.” Said Abela.

“At least oma will bribe me ma, can ya.” Darel.

“Mama said no, do you still insist?” Jerky Abela.

“Alright ma then.” Darel.

Not long after, they arrived at the hospital.

“Mama not down? Mama doesn't want to see oma?” Ask Darel.

“Mama there is a sudden affair, room inpati oma is in Rose room No 27 on the 2nd floor yes.” Abela said, then she immediately left and headed to her workplace.
