Me Vs Flocking Mommy

Chapter 7. Young Master

Morning at Albert's. Ghina works as usual. He washed the dishes after preparing breakfast for his young master. A young man walked into the dining room, which was only bordered by a glass wall with a kitchen. The man threw a sweet smile at Ghina.

“Loh, you haven't left, Al?” Ghina greeted her employer awkwardly.

“Not yet,” replied Albert briefly. He sat at the dining table relaxed. The man had been wearing a white shirt and a dark-colored suit. So handsome.

Ghina turned her gaze quickly, from the master. The man always makes his heart beat. “Since when did I like it?” ghina asked herself.

Unlike Ghina, Albert's attitude was very calm and not awkward at all. He ate the breakfast that Ghina had prepared. “Where was Ella last night?” albert asked while cutting the toast with a knife and fork.

Ghina breathed deeply. “I haven't spoken to him. Last night after coming home, he immediately locked himself in the room and missed dinner,” replied Ghina with a grim face.

“Continue this morning?” ask Albert again.

“He was not home, when I woke up,” Ghina said.

Albert did not reply to Ghina's words. He just looked at the woman deeply, while finishing his morning breakfast. “You don't eat? Yuk, eat with me. This is enough for both of us,” Albert said.

Ghina shook her head slowly. “Where can I have breakfast comfortably, if my own daughter just does not eat right,” Ghina murmured. “I think he's mad at me. His heart must have been very hurt,”.

“Don't be like that, Ghina. We have to stay healthy, to face Ella,” Albert scolds. The man thrust a plate of toast and a glass of warm milk at Ghina. “Eat, your face looks pale once.” Urged Albert.

Albert then cut the toast into small pieces, then fed it to Ghina. The young master's attitude, made Ghina's tears continue to flow non-stop. Every bite, he always remembered the face of the princess whose condition he did not know.

Albert moved to a chair beside Ghina. He then embraced the woman. “You must be patient, Ghina. He was just in shock, because he never thought we had a relationship,” whispered Albert beside Ghina.

“But ..” Ghina's tears are getting louder.

“He's still a teenager. His emotions are very unstable. We must patiently approach and give him understanding,” said Albert trying to calm Ghina.

“Are we going to continue with this wedding plan?” ghina asked doubtfully.

Ghina shook her head strongly. The woman grabbed a piece of tissue and wiped her tears. “Maybe I'm not just a bad mom figure. But also a selfish and selfless woman,” whispered Ghina in a quivering voice.

“You are not a person who does not know yourself. You just want to fight for happiness that has been delayed,” Albert timpal.

“You have been kind enough to accept that I work here, even though you have many shortcomings. But I ...” Ghina stopped her unfinished sentence. Her tears are back. “But I love my employer instead,”.

“Ghina, I told you this is not your fault. Stop blaming yourself. You still deserve to receive affection and live happily like everyone else.” Albert confirmed his sentence. He clasped the woman's hand tightly.

“Do you know? I used to be very hard on accepting the fact that my mother was getting married again. At that time I was still Junior High,” Albert's story. Ghina widened her eyes, hearing stories of her employer's past that she had not known.

“But then what happened to my life?” Albert paused his sentence for a moment. “So soon I can accept his presence between me and my mother. I also saw that my mother was happier after being with her.” Albert ended his old story.

“This is different from your story, Al. Your mother did not marry in droves, as I will do now,” Ghina said.

“You and I are only nine years different. Then where's the problem?” Albert disagreed with Ghina's last words.

Ghina lifted her head, and looked at the man closely.His hands touched the handsome man's cheeks. “Al, forgive me,” Ghina said in a raucous voice. “It looks like I need some time to deal with all this,” continued Ghina.

“You believe I can be a good husband. I love you both, with different portions.” Albert was still adamant about his opinion.

“I believe you, Al. I doubt myself. Aren't I being too selfish with you two?” reply Ghina.

Albert rubbed Ghina's hair slowly. “Alright, I will give you time,” said the man. Ghina breathes a sigh of relief.

“But at the same time, I will also persuade Ella to accept our decision,”.
