My girlfriend's my best friend's father

CHAPTER 31: Being Honest to Mom

Beby helped me drop off two suitcases and some of my shopping bags from the trunk of his car. I saw her watching us from the front door. His face was smiling but his eyes couldn't lie, I knew he was questioning what was going on, why am I carrying so many shopping bags from the expensive branded store or is it possible that you are wondering why I am with Beby?!

"Mother night." I put down my suitcase and hugged my mother.

"Lia, what are you carrying? Wasn't yesterday just one suitcase? This is all from Anita?" Mother's question is exactly what I thought.

"It's not mom, it's all Anita's dad bought." I answered him confidently, because I wanted to open little by little to my mother.

"Night night, is it healthy?" Beby greeted my mother.

"Night, it has recovered, it can be its own activities but there are still many limited." Mother replied with a warm smile.

"Sorry that last night, the road was jammed." Beby is stale.

"Whoever, it's important that Lia's safely home. Want to go in first? Lia please make me a drink." I look so friendly to Beby, thank goodness!

"Oh don't bother, I'll just go home." Beby did not look good to accept mother's invitation to stop by.

"Well, just a little drink and rest first, travel outside the city and the steering wheel itself is tiring, invite Anita all you enter first."

The deg!

My face and Beby looked confused because we did not go with Anita.

"Anita has gone down first, she was picked up by her mother in the rest area, want to continue the journey again." Fortunately, Beby quickly gave an excuse.

"Oh so you two?" I've just been glued to my feet since I looked back and forth at Beby and mom.

"Yes mba, Lia's time I put down also in the rest area, where the luggage is much more." Mother also chuckled to hear Beby talk so. I never thought you weren't angry at all, yeah you never acted unfriendly towards Beby but I thought you'd be mad if you knew I was just going home with Beby, especially bringing a lot of groceries.

"Well let's go in first, Lia quickly clean your suitcase and then make you drink, want cold or hot mas?" My mother led us into the house and sat in the living room.

I immediately put my suitcases into the room and made Mother and Beby a warm drink. I peeked for a moment wondering if mom and Beby were just awkwardly silent, but it turned out that they were chatting a lot as well.

"What's the first conversation?" I said, bringing a drink and putting it on the living room table.

"Again discussing herbal medicine, it turns out that Anita's father knows a lot about herbal medicine." I glanced at Beby and he was rolling his eyes at me. Incidentally, the company that Beby runs is indeed dabbling in the world of herbal medicines.

We finally chatted together and talked about the stroke that the mother suffered and some alternative treatments. Mom seemed enthusiastic to listen and occasionally Beby gave a joke that managed to make me and mom chuckle. I didn't think we could sit three and talk as close as we can now. Indeed, if not tried who knows will succeed or not.

Now it's just me and my mom in the house. It felt like there was just the warmth of a conversation that had long disappeared from this house. I don't know why, but Beby managed to make this house again feel like when there is a father.

"Lia, sit here first, I want to talk." My heart was anxious when my mother said that. I sat down next to my mother and did not lift the empty cup.

"Yes ma'am, what do you want to say?" I dare not look into my mother's eyes despite sitting next to her.

"Just go ahead... Do you want to know if Lia has any special feelings for her father Anita?" Mom stroked my long hair.

"Uhukis... Mhhhh... How do you suddenly ask me about that?" Suddenly my throat was blocked and dry.

"Mom actually knows, I can guess from your eyes, from the way you talk to her, from the way you behave in front of her, and so much more." Mother spoke in a very gentle tone, my heart became a little calmer.

"Well, ma'am, Lia's honest but I don't get mad at you." I held my mother's hand with both hands.

"Lia, I won't be angry." Mother smiled at me, I was so relieved that God wanted my relationship with Beby.

I then told my mother everything, I said that I did have feelings of love for Beby who is Anita's father. And I also said that Beby also had the same feelings as me, but our love was blocked by the blessing of Anita and her family and we thought also hindered the blessing of mother.

"Where do you know that blessing is hindered? Have you ever told Anita and her family that?" Ask mommy to frown.

"Not yet ma'am, but from my guess and Robby's mas." Duh, it is very rigid to mention the name 'mas Robby' which is actually Beby's real name. But I didn't have enough courage to call her 'Beby' in front of mom.

"The time to give up before fighting anyway?! Should have been talked about first. Like now, you finally want to tell the same story mom and mom don't get angry, right?" Mom convinced me.

"Yes the ma'am... But we're self-aware ma'am, we understand what kind of relationship we have, especially in the eyes of society." I said while bowing my head because I was ashamed of my mother.

"So the real problem is the response of the community or Anita and her family?" I just fell silent not answering my questions just now. Because anyone's response will feel the same, keep looking at our relationship one eye.

"Mom think all the problems are not from whose response, but from your own mind. You're the only one who doesn't want to speak frankly. Indeed, at first mother also felt awkward with you who often together, even mother had eaten the words of neighbors you know. But, after I think again it does not seem to be a problem with whom the mother pairs with, it is most important that the man is good. And most importantly, you're still single, she's not the man's husband and you're not the man's wife." I feel like my heart is falling! Between happy and touched to hear my mom say that just now. I don't feel my tears dripping, I hug Mom. Many times I say thank you and apologize for all this time has been wrong to hide my relationship with Beby.

"But Lia, how's Rendy? I thought you guys were dating, but now you're saying I have the same feeling as Robby."

I just remembered Rendy, even though we weren't dating but our relationship was far away. I even feel guilty now that I confessed to my mother about my relationship with Beby. Frankly, I'm so bad for Rendy because it's like I've been playing with her feelings. But yesterday-yesterday I actually had a feeling of liking for him, even more so when we crossed a moment when we had that forbidden relationship in this house many times.

"Lia and Rendy also have feelings, but not as strong as Lia's feelings for Robby's mas." I was afraid to talk to my mother, because I was wrong to leave this heart open for both.
