My girlfriend's my best friend's father

CHAPTER 27: Nightmares

"Beb, what's wrong with you? I'm so scared." My heart was weak when I heard her screams. Things I never saw from him at all.

"I'm sorry for the emotion, it seems like I'm too tired. I may be thinking a lot." He took a deep breath and rubbed his face with both hands.

"Okay, but you have a lot of thoughts why?" I was afraid he was angry again.

"Anita, ever since she's been sick she keeps asking for weird things." Beby's face suddenly changed like a confused person.

"Example?" I wonder what strange thing Anita asks of her, is not everything she will certainly give to her child.

"She asked me to come back with my ex-wife." Beby lowered his face.

What's?! What does all this mean? Is that really so? If Anita asks him to go back to his ex-wife, does that mean Anita already knows I and her father have a relationship?

"My ex-wife divorced her husband a few months ago, and lately Anita has been asking me to do unusual things for her." His tone began to drop and sounded desperate.

"Yes, just refuse that request. Why is it a burden on your mind?" I was a bit upset to hear it, why did he not just refuse the request of his son.

"I can't, if Anita asks me to always try to grant her, that's my promise to myself. Anita lacks affection, Lia. Anita my only son." His explanation seemed to ask me to better understand and give in.

"Yes already have another child, so Anita is no longer your only child." I crossed my hands in front of my chest.

"Yes, but having a child is not easy Lia. Raising Anita alone I've been overwhelmed."

I think about my fate if I really carry her child. Will he accept it?

"Then what if it turns out I'm really pregnant with your child?" I was very curious about the answer.

"You don't talk to Lia. If you're pregnant what about your college? What about your mother, then Anita?" He looked at me and his eyes were full of meaning.

I understand that my current situation does not benefit me if I am pregnant, I still have to continue my studies, because it is my mother's hope and my obligation to show my devotion to her. And if I'm pregnant, how are we gonna tell Mom and Anita?

We continued our way to my campus, all the way I was silent looking at the trees and the sidewalks we passed. My mind kept raging, my heart kept pushing me to explain our relationship to Mom and Anita.

"Well, when are we going to explain our relationship to Mom and Anita? I'm tired of having cats mess with them constantly." My question breaks the silence between us.

"Gorgeous patience, I'm trying to find the right time. I thought how about we tell it to my ex-wife first and then Anita, and then your mother." He asked me, honestly I don't know who we should meet first.

We reached my college, before getting out of the car and parting ways, Beby kissed my forehead and told me to be patient and never leave it. My heart is mixed, on the other hand I feel tired of this relationship drama, on the other hand I feel we are halfway.

After I finished collecting my college assignments, I immediately went home, my heart was not good to linger on campus. But from far away I saw someone I knew on the bike.

"Randy." I muttered, I ran towards him and he smiled broadly at me.

"Lia, mom said you went to college with Anita's dad. So, I'm curious and I'm here." Still the same with his smile that looks ignorant but sweet.

"Always curious huh? Do you want proof that I'm lying or not?" I answered while riding on the bike.

"Yes, you want proof as well and there are important things that we have to talk about. Hold tight yeah, we're leaving." He then closed his helmet glass and grazed his motor at high speed.

It did not take long we arrived at a caffee that was very aesthetic and quite luxurious. I felt the wrong costume to this place, from inside the big windows there I could even see myself with a dull and gloomy face. By just looking at the place I can guess the price of the menu in this caffee must not be affordable for my pocket at this time.

"Why are we here, Ren? I think there's still a lot of other caffees that are much more comfortable." I reasoned, maybe Rendy would move.

"Anita chose this place." He smiled saying that to me, while my heart is currently being really unpleasant plus hearing the name of Anita who always succeeded in making me unsettled.

"Anita?! You brought me here to meet Anita?!" My tone started to rise.

"I'm sorry I forgot to tell you, so a few days ago I met Anita at my restaurant. Then he asked for my phone number, and then he called me and asked us to meet him here today." I wonder why Rendy could tell that so casually. Is this grim face of mine still lacking to tell her that I am not doing well?!

"It's Anita's coming." He pointed towards the front of the caffe and waved his hand as if meeting an old friend.

I was very surprised to see Anita did not come alone, she was with her mother. I can already guess what important thing Anita and her mom want to say. They must have wanted to berate me, slap me, and corner me until I felt ashamed, guilty and knelt down to beg for their forgiveness.

What is this nightmare?! I speak in my heart.

"Hi Ren, hi Lia, long time no see, how's mom healthy?" Anita greeted us first.

"Hi Nit, I've been sniffing around." I smiled stiffly at them.

"Lia darling, auntie kangen you know, long time no see yaa... How are you, baby?" Aunt Ira greeted me with her distinctive, cheerful and coquettish style of speech. He hugged me, the smell of expensive perfume immediately smelled. He always looks luxurious, with all kinds of jewelry he wears and hairstyles that are always arranged like from the salon as well as good clothes that he wears really fit him.

I returned his embrace a little awkwardly, this time my heart became shrivelled. For some reason I felt less confident, right now I really feel 'small' and not worthy of being with Beby. Looking at Aunt Ira this time like I was drowning myself in murky water, my chest was so tight.
