Still Wishing He Back?

74. Sharing Stories

Lucas was still stunned to hear Darren's words that looked serious and there was no joking gap in them. He was stunned to look at Darren who was actually calm to say the thing that made him surprised.

"Crazy, so the news is true?" He said then with an expression asking for an explanation to Darren.

"Should I repeat what I said?" Reply Darren looked at Lucas's face with an expression that was reluctant to explain.

Lucas stared in disbelief at Darren who looked calm, while himself was quite surprised to know the reality he heard.

"Kok, you can be calm like this, anyway? Did you know you had a child before? And again..." Lucas, who was more surprised than Darren at the moment, looked lost for words.

"I'm sorry to explain to you, if you don't want to find a house for me, let's go there, disturb you." Darren did not care and instead chose to continue his work.

"Jeez, this is a kid, making my head hurt." Lucas stared resentfully at Darren who was reluctant to explain to him.

"When did you know about this? And, why didn't you ever tell me this?" Ask Darren again.

"Recently just. And, about me who doesn't want to tell, yes because at that time I still don't know." Darren replied while doing his job.

"Well! And you can be this calm even if you know about this? About you having a child? Seriously?" Lucas stared in disbelief at Darren.

Darren stopped his activity, and was silent for a moment, which then turned to look at Lucas who was currently looking at him curiously.

"I'm also surprised like you, even more surprised than you know." The answer was then, and made Lucas calm again.

"Ok, sorry, the end is quite surprising to me." Reply Lucas.

"Indeed, this isn't surprising enough for me? I was also shocked when I first found out, but couldn't I do anything but believe it?" Darren Obviously.

Hearing Darren's explanation, Lucas was finally able to understand the feelings of his best friend. He understood that his shock would not be comparable to Darren who experienced it directly.

"On the news about you going to your son's school, is that also true? Then, does your son also know about you who's his father?" Ask Lucas then.

"True, I did come to school to meet him. He also knew about me, his father, because he was waiting for me." Darren replies to thinking about his son.

"How to now? Do you want to take care of him? That's why you asked me to find a house?"

"Who, I am his father, I also want to make amends to him, that's why I want..." For a moment he was silent. "I want to get closer to her." He looked up at Lucas.

Lucas clucked in disbelief to hear it, so he could not speak anymore. "Oh, my head got dizzy thinking about this." There are still many things he wants to ask Darren.

"As for your son, are you one hundred percent sure he's your real son?" Ask Darren back.

"I'm pretty sure, because I've already checked it straight through the DNA test." Reply Darren.

"What about the mother of your child? Do you know about him too?"

The question from Lucas about the mother of his son, made Darren so reminded of Airin which is still a challenge for him.

"So you know about him too? Oh, my God, this is a child, and you're keeping it a secret from me, too?" Lucas seemed to think nothing of Darren.

"He is, do I know him?"

"That's it, but obviously you've met him a few times."

Lucas scrunched his forehead, confused by what Darren meant.

"Who? And where have I met him?"

"When Silvia's wedding party, it's the first time we've seen her, and the last time we've seen Laura." Darren Obviously.

Lucas did not immediately ngeh and remember about Airin, he was still trying to think about what was meant by Darren.

"Oh, I remember now, so she's the woman who had a disagreement with Laura?" Remember later.

"Hem.." Darren just cleared up Lucas's question.

"Oh, yes I also remember that there was a little girl with that girl, but at that time I was not too ngeh same as her because it was focused on the little boy who was with her at that time." Lucas recalled his encounter with Airin and Arka at the time.

"Ajatan aja at that time I felt familiar when I saw the little boy, because his face was so similar to you as a child" he said again when recalling the figure of Arka who was then with Airin.

Darren was silent, because at that time he was not aware of the existence of his son, and was only focused on Airin who was attracting attention at that time.

"Did your family know about this?"

"Not yet, I haven't told them, but they'll also know for themselves from the news." Reply Darren was calm and not too concerned about his family.

"Well, I still can't believe that you already have a child and are a father." Said Lucas, who still looks disbelieving in the reality of Darren's story.

"I also actually still don't believe about my status that changed, but everything has already happened, so inevitably I have to accept it, right?" Although still not believing, but Darren can not refuse the reality that exists in him at this time.

"But, about that woman, what was your relationship? Does he have anything to do with your lost past?" Ask Lucas about Airin.

"It seems so, because the voice of the woman I always hear in my head and makes me difficult when going to sleep is the voice of her." Darren answered with confidence.

"You already know the identity of the voice that has been bothering you all this time, so is it now that your memory has recovered? Doesn't your head hurt anymore?"

"Unfortunately I still haven't, because I still don't remember him completely, just the pieces I remember about him." Obviously Darren is a little regretful.

"What was your relationship?"

"I don't know, what I remember in that little memory, we're pretty close and familiar, which is even.." Darren couldn't go back on his sentence, because somehow it made his feelings hurt just by thinking about it.

Lucas looked at his best friend's gloomy face thinking about his relationship with the mother of his son in the past. His facial expression seemed to catch the sadness his best friend was feeling.

"What a plot twist I never imagined before.." His words in his heart refer to the story of Darren.
