Second Time

DAFA-ERROR IN THE PAST

I turned off the television that had accompanied me, there was no more interesting show to watch. As the night wore on, I got off the couch and climbed into the bed, sitting on the back of the bed. My mind started to drift somewhere.

I remember Grace, that girl really made me fall in love and crazy about her. It feels like my heart is so tormented considering that she doesn't return my feelings at all. It's been a few months, there's been no progress at all between me and Grace, we're just getting closer but she feels completely untouchable with all the attention I've given her.

The girl seemed completely unaware, she even looked ordinary with all the sweet treatment I gave her. Sometimes I think, other than losing her memory, did she lose her sensitivity? Grace getting you back wasn't as easy as I imagined, I had to try harder.

I stole time to be with him when he was sick yesterday. I even banished Jane from going to the hospital to be alone with the girl. I want to show her how sorry I am for her through everything I do.

The doctor said if her old memory starts working again, I'll try to get Grace back. I want him to remember about me and our relationship. Although I was aware of the possible risks, if she started to recall I did not know if she would accept me or might hate me. But despite all those possibilities, I wish he could recall. At least about our good memories in the past even though there were injuries tucked away there.

I thought back to that moment, the dumbest moment of my life. I never used to call her Grace, I always called her by her first name, Defina. It was my last day with Defina, there was nothing at first, we were fine then. After college, Defina and I went for a walk on the bike. I know that kid is a conglomerate kid, but somehow he really likes riding bikes, he goes anywhere on a bike. That's why before I got his heart I also bought a motorcycle to get close to the boy. I never drove to college again after I met him. Until he and I became lovers, we always rode the bike together.

That day I was riding Defina on her bike, we were walking around town after college. Things we almost do every day if there is no busyness. I'm so happy to be with him, to be by his side always makes me happy. He was a different figure, I found no other woman. I think everything from heaven and from earth accompanied him when he was born so that almost all the perfection in his life was created.

A face that is so beautiful with the ideal body shape it has. In addition to physical perfection he is also awarded the perfection of the heart. A good soul dwells in him, tenderness of heart and kindness of attitude never run away from him. Humility and being away from pride really adds value to your life. He's a completely different person, isn't he?

As we were walking around, my phone suddenly rang. I read the name of the caller, Brian's father's personal assistant. I received the call, Brian talked a lot across the street. Believe me it's really bad news, but I'm trying to be normal because there's Defina near me. I hung up the phone and went to Defina, I asked her to come home and take me. He seemed to understand all the circumstances even though he did not know at all, he agreed without asking anything, he even asked to piggyback me.

Defina and I got to my house, I got off the bike and smiled at him. He returned my smile without getting off his bike. Defina was ready to take the bike forward but I held her hand.

"Defina."

"Yes?" He looked at me.

"There's bad news."

"What's that?"

"Both of my parents divorced, they decided to return to their birthplace. I'm going back to my home country, Thailand. I'm going back to XX Island. I was asked to choose who to go with, but I don't think I'm going with anyone." He seemed surprised by what I said.

"I'm sorry about this, Daf. May everything that happens be best for both your parents and for you as well?" Defina clasped my hand tightly. I returned the grip of her hand, it felt a little sad that I yawned with just the warmth of this girl's hand.

"Thank you, come home late in the afternoon, be careful on the road." I smiled at him.

Defina nodded and waved her hand past from before me, she propelled her motor until it was no longer within my sight. I went into the house, nobody but the servants. Like Brian said, my parents haven't come home yet. Dad's still in the office and mom's still in the shop.

At nightfall, my father came home but my mother did not come home. I had dinner alone with Dad, he was sitting across the chair from me. Dad didn't say anything because he was sure that I already knew about them. Moments only heard the sound of a small clink of eating utensils that sounded until finally dad opened his mouth.

"Yes?" I looked at him.

"Do you know?" He put the spoon and fork in his hand on the plate.

"Hm." I nodded slowly.

"Can you take it?" I looked at me waiting for my answer.

"Hopefully." I answered briefly, however it is actually very difficult at this time to accept all these facts, I did not expect at all this will happen.

"Dafa may be the best for all of us, hopefully you can understand later."

"Dad, I wouldn't understand if you didn't explain anything." I said flatly, hiding my sadness.

"Dafa, I can't forbid your mother to leave."

"Why? Don't you love each other?" I looked into my father's eyes that looked sad.

"Dad tried, but there's something that can't be forced between us." I didn't stop looking at me.

"What's that?" I want to know the cause of all this.

"You don't have to know about this."

"No dad, I'm your son and I'm all grown up now, I deserve to know what happened." I saw sadness on my father's face.

"Hmm, promise not to hate anyone after you find out."

"All right." I didn't know what my father was going to say next, just that my heartbeat was speeding up instantly while waiting for the word to come out of his mouth.

"Please promise me, whatever you'll know from what you say, even if it's bitterness, never hate your mother's father or anyone else."

"Good dad." I'm nodding.
