My ex, my Fiancee's Son

Chapter 22. Just like evelyn?

After a few minutes the bathroom door was knocked from the outside.

"Shelina, are you done. Let's go." I looked at myself at the small glass on the bathroom wall and took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. Hopefully, Marcus too, Evelyn doesn't realize that my eyes are flushed a little. I came out of the bathroom and put on a big smile as if everything was fine.

"Let's go, I'm hungry."

Half an hour later we were sitting inside the restaurant and waiting for the order to arrive. Evelyn was sitting next to Angel and I was sitting next to Marcus. Angel was excited and happy. He kept smiling and staring at the restaurant.

"You're so happy to eat at this restaurant, Angel." Angel nodded quickly.

"Yes, um. It's the first time my mom and aunty have taken me to a nice place like this."

"It wasn't mama and aunty who took you but Om. Even Om's paying for all the orders later." Me and Evelyn just let out a slow breath at Marcus' arrogant speech.

"Say what to Marcus who wants to take Angel to eat here." Evelyn taught Angel very well.

"You're still." I'm afraid Angel's lips will hurt from smiling so wide that her teeth are visible.

"Yes dear." Marcus pinched Angel's cheek making me smile. Marcus has always liked children.

"Don't you ever eat in a nice place like this?" Angel shook her head slowly with her sad look.

"No, I always eat my mama's cooking at home. If my mom or aunt were to take us out to eat, we'd only eat in a roadside tent." Marcus looked at Evelyn and also at me. Then turned his gaze back to Angel with a big smile.

"Then Om will often invite Angel to eat outside."

"Really, Om? Promise is yes." Angel stuck her finger out. Marcus chuckles and links his little finger to Angel's.

"Yes." Yeah." I smiled again at the interaction. Even Evelyn was just speechless and did not bring out the scathing sentences she always said to Marcus.

It seemed, he was amazed by Marcus's side of this one. Not long after the waiter came to deliver our order. And Angel screamed happy to eat the steak. This dinner was full of jokes and laughter with Angel's voice and cuteness.

On the way home after taking Evelyn and Angel to her flats. Marcus said,

"I know it's none of my business. But this is troubling my mind."

I looked towards Marcus. The man was still focused on driving.

"Where's Angel's father? You guys didn't talk about it at all and I didn't find a picture of that guy in Evelyn's house." Marcus glanced at me. I took a deep breath and stared at the road ahead.

"Evelyn is pregnant out of wedlock. Her lover left her just like that after knowing Evelyn was pregnant. That irresponsible man doesn't care and disappears." I took a breath before continuing my words. I don't know why I wanted to tell Evelyn's sad story to Marcus. Maybe it's because I know that Marcus cares and loves Angel so much. Although that guy just met Angel a few hours ago.

"Evelyn was devastated and sad at the time. He was willing to drop his womb. Evelyn had even enrolled in the hospital to abort the fetus, but she was unable to kill her flesh and blood which was completely innocent. He even survived even though he had to be kicked out of the house by his parents. Become a single parent and make money by earning a junior high school diploma. You know how heavy it is. Until finally because of the economic demands she became a prostitute at a nightclub. And leave Angel sleeping alone every night."

"I was also determined that if I could open my own cafe, I would ask Evelyn to stop peddling her body and work at my cafe. Although the results are less but at least not the result of prostitution."

"Are you the same as Evelyn?"

"Yes?" I looked quickly at Marcus. And found that guy who was looking at me so intensely. The car stopped right in front of the mansion.

"Are you also forced to peddle your body because of the economic demands?" Marcus' right hand caressed my left cheek. I fell silent fixated. Can only stare fixedly at his black eyes. My tongue is so twisted and my voice is so hard to get out. Her fingers caress brought me.

Slowly Marcus's face approached. Getting closer until his breath hit my face. His eyes closed before his lips touched me. Marcus kissed me. As if hypnotized I close my eyes and reply to Marcus's words.**** and taste his thick lips.

Marcus' right hand pushed my nape and his left hand touched my waist to get closer and not let go of our kiss. My hands even moved around Marcus' neck. I'm getting more enthusiastic about returning his fondness. Thick lips that have always been my opium and my miss.

After a few minutes we stopped this kiss. My hunting breath puts a lot of air into my lungs that have been starved of oxygen. Marcus's face was still close to me even he stuck his forehead with me. Her lips smiled and her fingers touched my chin and then kissed my lips once before distancing her face. His hand that was still stuck to my face slowly rubbed the corner of my lips using his thumb.

"Let's go in, it's been so night." Marcus opens the car door and exits. It took me ten seconds to fully wake up and rush out of the car.

Marcus stood waiting for me at the door of the mansion. We entered the mansion together. My lips have been smiling ever since with a heated face. After a few steps, we stopped. Not far from us stood a man who walked back and forth restlessly. Then it stopped when I realized my presence was also Marcus.

As my eyes rested on the man's black eyes, my heart beat rapidly. The man wearing a blue shirt with messy hair made him even more handsome. The man rushed up to me with wide strides. Maybe he ran because a second later my body was already in his arms.

"I'm so worried about you. I'm afraid something bad happened to you." His embrace was so tight it made me cramped. But I did not rebel after hearing the frustrating tone in his voice. The corner of my eye caught Marcus's enlarged eyes and was glued towards us.

"Shelina, where are you from? Why can't your phone be contacted? I'm really worried about you."

The man in front of me is Andrew. He pointed at me with many questions after letting go of his tight embrace. Both of his hands cupped my cheeks.

"I just got home from Evelyn's house. My phone's dead." Even though I said it, there was still anxiety in Andrew's eyes.

"You don't usually come home late this night from Evelyn's house."

"Yes, sorry. I chatted so much with Evelyn and Angel that I forgot about time. But why did you come home? Didn't you just come home tomorrow."

"My work in Japan is done and the cooperation is also smooth. I miss you so much anyway, so I go straight home when my business is done."

I smiled in response to Andrew's words. From the corner of my eye I saw Marcus's face bowing in lethargy, he turned around and left us.

Why is he acting like he doesn't like Andrew's return? And what was he thinking about to show such a sad look?
