“I'm sorry daddy Grace! daddy's been hurting you all along, thinking of you as a son of a bitch. Dad even hit you."
"Reply I dear, hit me just as I hit you!” picked up and guided Grace's hand to slap her. However, Grace brushed off the father's hand.
Look at Belle and Daniel now. Makes Grace sad because their lives are far from perfect. It's sad, I don't know what Damian did to make his family into a rascal.
"Dad, I've forgiven you before you even apologized to me. No matter how much I hate you, my respect and love still trumps everything!" grace said softly. Makes Daniel smile with pride. Didn't expect Grace to forgive him within this fast time frame.
"How old are you, Grace?" ask Daniel. Staring at Grace's distended stomach.
"This month is entering the age of nine. And the doctor predicted that I would most likely give birth soon!" rub it lovingly.
"Then, did Mr Wilson treat you well?” ask Daniel.
Silent for a moment, Grace lowered her head. Look at the ceramic floor on his incandescent. Confused what to answer. "Dad, let it rest for free!" Steven snarl. Tell Belle to take Grace away.
"Grace, I'll take you to your room. Rest up!" take Belle, gently pull Grace's wrist.
Grace just kept quiet and followed Belle's steps. While Steven sat in the guest room with Daniel, began to tell everything Steven knew.
Belle invites Grace into her room, as Grace's room is still under repair. On top of the bed was a small child of one and a half years old, sleeping soundly. Grace sat on the edge of the bed, approached and stared intensely at the little boy. Very beautiful, snow-white skin, pliable eyelashes, and a sharp nose.
“What is she female?” ask Grace. Belle nodded and sat down next to the empty bed.
“What's his name kak?”
“Name, Abigail Ainsley Elard!” Grace scrunched her forehead. There is no family Alex. Grace remembered Steven last night. Belle's opening up now. Then, did Alex not support Belle.
"You didn't add Alex's surname to his sis?" belle's countenance turned sour. Belle laughed awkwardly, embarrassed to tell the truth.
"Said Steven you're working now. Where is Alex? did Alex not spare you brother?" flood Belle with all kinds of questions. Belle felt cornered, her body shaking violently. Panicked.
"Before I tell you, I want to apologize to you Grace!" Belle lowered her head. Feeling guilty has hurt Grace all this time.
"No papa brother, it's all over!" reassuringly. Grace is getting curious about Belle's story.
"Actually.. "
"Se actually Alex is not Abigail's real father, Grace. The night I gave Alex the medicine
stimulant. It turned out that I myself drank the drink, because it could not stand the passion. I'm asking just any man to sleep with me." Belle explained.
Belle felt that the true value of stupidity was herself. Grace smiled and nodded in response to her brother's apology.
"Alex knows this truth?" Belle nodded weakly. Assented. "I got divorced with Alex right on our first night!"
"Sorry brother, I didn't know you were having this kind of trouble. I shouldn't have asked you!" Grace's sorry. Unexpectedly, Alex left Belle without a second thought.
"It's my fault, Grace. Don't apologize, because I deserve it!"
"Oh yeah, I got something for you!" Belle grabs the red box located in the bottom drawer. Then, hand the box over to Grace.
"Is this brother?" ask Grace. Turn the box over and over, before opening it.
"Good birthday, Grace. It's a gift from me!" belle exclaimed with a crisp laugh. Feeling bad for the first time gave Grace a gift.
Grace did not reply, her eyes acridly watching the pair of earrings that Belle had designed especially for her.
Grace's eyes glazed over. Didn't expect there would be a day when Belle gave him a gift. Belle made it with her own two hands.
"That's great, you designed these earrings, brother?" Belle nodded. A little anxious, afraid Grace didn't like the gift.
"Thank you, I like it!"
"I'd love it if you liked the gift, Grace!" belle said as she spread her hands. Hugged Grace again. Having a sister is not bad, either. You know, Belle wouldn't treat Grace badly.
"Then, what is this?" accidentally his sight caught an interesting object. A silver colored box. Belle took the city and showed it to Grace.
"This is the necklace the stranger left behind after fucking me!" belle said irony.
Grace grabbed the necklace. Observing him for a long time. Looking at the Jewels that adorned the necklace pendulum, Grace guessed that the person who fucked Belle was not a man from the lower middle class. The jewel is very expensive. It was impossible for ordinary people to afford it.
"Wear my necklace, who knows Abigail's father is looking for you right now!" Belle did not answer. Let Grace put the locket to her neck.
Shut up, Grace couldn't answer. Started to reflect on the words of the brother. Grace admits, she doesn't want her future baby to be big without a father's affection. Enough of him to feel, not with his son. Grace is not ready. Grace is afraid of Damian.
Grace doesn't know Damian. They were forcibly married. Damian was also very violent and coercive. Grace did not like such an arrogant man.
"I must be back, brother. My son also needs a father figure. But for now, I'm not ready. Damian was cruel and heartless. I'm afraid to stay with him!"
Hearing Grace's reply, Belle smiled happily. At least Grace is still thinking about the kindness of her future child.
Not wanting to go back now is no problem. Belle can understand. Grace may be traumatized after getting hurt from family.
"I see, you just rest here. I'll go downstairs and prepare dinner!" pamit Belle before walking out of the room.
...🦋🦋🦋🦋...
Downstairs, Daniel was sobbing. Didn't expect Grace to get this much ordeal because of it. His lips repeatedly apologized.
However, still his heart still felt uneasiness. Moreover, running away from her husband's house in a state of pregnancy.
Whatever Grace's decision will be. Daniel will support her, no matter if Grace wants to settle in this mansion. Daniel will take care of her and give her all the affection that Daniel never gave her all this time.
"Dad! can we have a birthday party tonight?" Belle screamed as she ran down the stairs.
Daniel wiped his tears. He seems interested in Belle's idea. "Good idea, it's just that daddy can't make a birthday party as grand and lavish as it used to be!"
"Let's calm dad, I'm here! your son is not a poor man!" steven said bragging. Daniel and Belle just shook their heads at Steven's childish behavior.
"Luxury or simple doesn't matter, what matters is our sincerity right?" This is what makes Steven happy. Belle turned into a simple woman with thoughtful thinking.
Steven is no longer shy about recognizing Belle as his twin brother. Believe it or not, thanks to Damian everyone is turning into a better person now.
"Then we get ready now!"
...🦋🦋🦋🦋...
Late in the afternoon, the simple party preparations were over. Just wait for Grace to wake up and they'll party till nightfall. Simple decor with home-cooked dishes, just like Grace wanted.
"Preparation is over, just wait for Grace to wake up and we'll party!" belle said cheerfully.
Then they went to their own rooms. To clean up before celebrating Grace's birthday party. The weather today is quite hot. Makes them sweat a lot.
Until night falls, Grace wakes up from her sleep. Change position to sit and then circulate the view looking for Belle.
Empty, I don't know where the woman went. Grace decided to take a shower first. Before getting off and looking for Belle.
...🦋🦋🦋🦋...
"Be prepared! Grace walked over here!" said Belle pulled her father and brother to hide behind a closet. A few moments later.
Grace came down slowly. I could not see because the room was dark. I don't know where Belle is now. Grace was afraid of tripping and falling.
"Sister Belle!" call Grace tight. However, there is no lawfulness. Grace just set foot downstairs. Suddenly the lights came on.
Grace walked over, staring at them with a glint of her eyes. Not expecting a day to come where the whole family gets together and celebrates his birthday.
"Happy birthday Grace!" belle. Pulling Grace closer to the table filled with various foods including birthday cakes.
Shortly after, Steven and Daniel congratulated. Not to forget, they also give a lot of gifts.
"Now blow out the candle, don't forget to say your request before putting out the fire!" Grace nodded in understanding. Uniting his two palms while closing his eyes. Hope for Grace's hope is expressed in the heart. A hope that is the purpose of his life now.
Everyone sang a song while waiting for Grace to blow out the candles. As soon as the candle went out everyone clapped and told Grace to cut the cake.
Not wanting to miss a chance, Belle took her phone. Turn on the camera and capture that special moment.
Not to forget they also took pictures together as a memento. The little family was partying until night. Starting from hearing Steven singing to dancing they did. All the new things they tried. Hope Grace's missed moments of happiness are replaced by tonight's celebration.
