CH-98 Aldric my baby

Valerie looked at Darren.

“Tell me what do you mean? Who's Aldric Stefanov? Why did you say the real Jordan?” ask Valerie.

Darren walks up to her, pulls out his phone, and gives it to Valerie.

Valerie saw what was on the phone. A baby. Who's the baby? His heart was pounding more and more, because the baby looked like Earlangga, let alone the baby was more than a week old, the look of his face had begun to be clearly not as red as when he was born.

Valerie's hands immediately trembled looking at him.

“Ap..what is this Darren? Whose baby is this?” ask her with eyes that start red.

Darren was silent.

“Whose baby is this?” shout Valerie.

“That's your baby,” replied Darren.

“Ba my baby?” valerie asked, surprised not to play. The baby is dead and suddenly Darren says the baby in the picture is the baby.

“You don't joke Darren, whose baby is this?” valerie yelled again, then looked at the baby, the baby looked so much like her husband. His eyes were turning red, his tears were beginning to pierce his cheeks.

“Actually what happened? You're not playing me, are you?” valerie asked, staring at the baby's photo and her tears fell on Darren's phone.

Suddenly Darren takes her phone back from Valerie's hand, leaving Valerie shocked, and her hand will grab Darren's phone back but Darren keeps it away.

“You've seen enough,” Darren said.

“Darren, I want to see it again,” Valerie said, extending her hand.

But Darren put it in his pocket.

Valerie looked at Darren with her reddened face holding back tears.

“Darren exactly what happened? Why did you say it was my baby? Please answer,” ask Valerie.

Darren was silent, seemingly thinking.

“You want to know the truth?”ask Darren.

“Iya, tell me? Why.why does the baby look like Earlangga?” ask Valerie.

“Because the baby is indeed your baby with Earlangga,” replied Darren, making Valerie even more shocked.

“You, you're not kidding Darren?” ask Valerie.

“I'm serious,” Darren replied, then took something out of his pocket and gave it to Valerie.

Valerie took the paper straight away. An envelope with the hospital letterhead where she gave birth, quickly opened the contents of the envelope and read it. Valerie felt that she had become unable to breathe due to her shock, it was the result of Aldric's DNA test with Earlangga. What astonished him was the date of the test that he had returned home.

“But this, this is the date I gave birth to,” Valerie said.

“Yes because the letter was made after you came home and the baby has not been named, because Jordan's name you have brought home,” Darren replied.

“How do you know all this? You did it? You switched my baby?” bentak Valerie's.

“Quiet calm do not misunderstand first,” said Darren.

Somehow the mix of Valerie's feelings, between sad, distrustful, angry, disappointed, and happy that the baby is still alive.

“So the one you brought was not your baby, it was the baby of a homeless man who died and Earlangga thought it was the baby,” Darren replied.

“What? Darren don't joke, it's a serious thing,” Valerie said.

“Of course I don't play. That's his DNA test result, Aldric Stefanov,” kat Darren.

“But I don't know this baby, why is the baby named Aldric, who named him?” ask Valerie samakin.

“You know who did all this?” Darren asked back.

“Who?” valerie asked looking at Darren.

“I think you warned you once,” Darren replied.

“You mean..you mean the one who did this is Ms.Grace?” ask Valerie, doubt it.

“Who else if not him? He named Aldric Stefanov,” Darren replied.

Valerie jolted at Kaegt, she knew Ms.Grace didn't like her but she didn't expect Miss, Grace would be able to do this all. How could she trade her baby for someone else's dead baby? She was crying and then looking at Darren.

“You're not lying?” ask Valerie.

“Do what lie?” ask Darren.

“Don't you do all this,” Valerie said.

“You just ask Ms.Grace who made the scenario of your baby dying?” ask Darren.

“Ny.Grace is sick, he has a stroke and can't talk,” Valerie replied.

“What? A stroke? Can't talk? Good!” darren said with a laugh.

“I still can't believe Ms.Grace could do this,” Valerie lamented.

“From the beginning I told you that you have to get out of that house, Mrs.Grace will not give up on getting rid of you, it is proven now,” said Darren.

“Where is the baby now? He has to come back to me” Valerie said.

Darren did not answer.

“Tell me, where is the baby? How do you know all this?” valerie asked almost screamed because Darren was silent.

“The baby is already my son now, you can't take it,” Darren said.

“What? Your son? My baby is with you?” ask Valerie.

“Iya,” Darren replied.

“Not that easy,” said Darren.

“Not how?” ask Valerie.

“I got the baby with great difficulty out of the hands of his people Ms. Grace, I had to scout the hospital every day until Aldric could get home,” Darren replied.

“But what is my baby doing with you? You're just a thug who's not clear what you're doing!” said Valerie.

Darren walked over.

“Didn't you see me now? I'm now changing, I have a house got a car and I hold a company, I've changed,” Darren said.

“Do what you say it all?” ask Valerie.

“That means I deserve to be Aldric's father,” Darren replied.

“Darren keep playing around, if you know where Aldric is please find me, give him back to me,” Valerie said, he began to despair.

“No, not so, he is already my milk,” Darren replied.

“But I'm his mother, why did you say all that if you didn't give the baby to me?” ask Valerie.

“Of course there's a reason,” Darren said.

“Say the obvious,” says Valerie.

“That means you have to marry me so Aldric will be your son, your biological son,” Darren replied to Valerie's surprise.

“What? Marry you?” ask Valerie.

“Of course, I told you that after you gave birth I would pick you up, now I'm picking you up back home to my house,” Darren said.

Valerie was surprised to hear it.

“But not in this way Darren,” Valerie said.

“What are the other ways? Do I have to be all right and you want to come with me?” ask Darren.

“Darren, this joke is so not funny, we have known for a long time and we have never had anything to do,” Valerie replied.

“Not now, do you think I know all this just like that? I'm every day waiting for your time to give birth, until I find out what Ms. Grace is doing. Besides, it would be better if you got out of that house, Mrs.Grace would still get you out of there,” Darren said.

Valerie looked at Darren, she was happy that it was true that the baby was the baby, meaning that the baby was still alive, but if she followed Darren's wishes it meant that she had to leave Earlangga? She was already comfortable marrying Earlangga.

“You only have two choices. If you want to marry me you'll be with Aldric or if you choose to stay in that house then forget about Aldric, let's just say that the one who died was really your baby,” Darren said.

Valeriepun was silent in confusion.

Darren immediately left Valerie who was just sculpting.

Seeing Darren leave, Valerie immediately caught up with him.

“Darren let me meet my baby,”.

“I gave you a choice, you just choose,” replied Darren.

“Please Darren don't do this, return Aldric to me,” said Valerie, just straight back her eyes glazed over.

“You heard what I said,” said Darren without stopping his steps, he just kept going and Valerie kept following him.

“Darren!” call Valerie. Darren stopped his steps and looked at Valerie.

“Stay just like that, what's the trouble? I promise you won't lack anything if you marry me, you'll be with Aldric forever,” Darren said.

“Darren don't do this, you don't love me,” Valerie said.

“I love you,” said Darren, with a serious look.

Valeriepun was silent.

“Darren, we've known for a long time, I know you don't love me, you're just upset and ..” haven't finished Valerie talking, Darren is back away.

“Darren! Darren! I beg Darren! I want to meet my baby,” Valerie said.

“I have said your choice and I will not change my decision,” said Darren insisted, until his step up to the parking page and he opened his car door.

“Darren, please!” Valerie's holding Darren's car door.

The woman looked at Darren.

“I want to see Aldric,” says Valerie.

Darren did not answer, he clasped Valerie's hand and got into his car.

“Darren, I want to meet Aldric,” Valerie said, banging the glass of Darren's car.

Darren turns on his car regardless of Valerie's request.

“Darren!” call Valerie.

The car started to run.

“Darren, Darren please Darren, I want to meet Aldric,” he said with tears that are now creeks, but Darren did not hear at all, he continued to gas his car leaving the place.

Valerie could only silently watch Darren's car go far away. It felt like his feet were not treading to the ground, his body was so lightly floated, his soul was so hollow, accepting this heavy reality.

Yesterday she was sad to lose her baby. Now that the baby has news, it turns out that she has to leave her husband. How could she possibly have to choose between a baby and her equally beloved husband?

Valerie wiped away the tears on her cheeks, all very puzzling to her.  Why would he suffer like this? Will there be no happiness?

He remembered the baby photo. That cute little face, she has a sharp nose like Earlangga, what a very handsome baby, the baby, it's the baby, but the baby is not in her hands, she continues to cry, while walking down the garden pavement, looking for a taxi to go home.
