The Unexpected Destiny

The Part 27

Cla just came out of the ICU. He then walked over to Xavier who was sitting in a chair in the hospital corridor.

" It's done? " Task Xavier when Cla is already standing before him.

" It's. Let's go home. " Answer Cla brief

Cla walked ahead of Xavier to the hospital exit. Xavier who was watching Cla from behind started to furrow his brows.

He then followed Cla from behind.

After arriving in the car, Xavier noticed a change in Cla's attitude that looked more reserved after exiting the ICU room earlier.

" You okay? " Task Xavier to Cla

" Hmm? Ja. " The answer is short

" How is your mother? " Task Xavier again

" It's stable. " Answer to Cla

Xavier then exhaled slowly. He was surprised why Cla's attitude changed after leaving the ICU room. He then drove his car and got out of the hospital.

Cla was pensive, he recalled the words of the sister back in the ICU room. Who is the one who came to see his mother and claimed to be his older sister?.

From the characteristics mentioned by the sister earlier, it was very directed to the figure of Kimberly Maurer.

Is it true Kimberly went to my mom in the hospital? If that's true, your safety will be threatened.

Cla said in her heart.

Cla then looked at the car window, he frowned when he realized that the road that Xavier was going through was not the way to Xavier's house.

" Where are we going? This doesn't seem like the way home? " Task Cla confused

" I'm gonna take you somewhere. A very beautiful place when you see it at dusk like this. " Say Xavier with a smile

" But I need to get home quickly. If Sofi's mom finds out I'm not home, she'll be mad! " Protest of Cla

" Just calm down. Sofi's business leave it to me. " Talk

Cla just breathed his breath. If you think about it, he also does not mind, because Cla is already tired of being at home continues. He never even went out to calm his mind.

Xavier stopped his car near a lake near the park. He gets off, and opens the car door for Cla.

" Let's get down. " Say to Cla

Cla looks a little hesitant, but he then decides to come down with Xavier.

Xavier then took him to walk towards the lake, and sat on a long chair that was right on the edge of the lake.

For a moment Cla was astonished by the beautiful scenery that was now before him. The lake is so beautiful. Coupled with the current twilight atmosphere, which makes the water in the lake look like a mirror that is reflecting orange light from the twilight sun.

" It's beautiful "Bisik Cla slowly

Then Xavier invites Cla to sit next to him. Cla was silent for a moment, but before long he sat down next to Xavier.

" This place is so beautiful, I just found out there is a lake near the city park. " Cla said as she looked at the lake in awe

" If I'm tired and bored, I usually come here with my friends. " Ob course Xavier

" i... I rarely go to a place like this. I spend my time working day and night. Until I myself can't remember the last time I went to this beautiful place just to calm my mind. " Say Cla glare

" friends? I don't have any friends. " Answer Cla brief

Xavier was stunned to hear Cla's reply.

" From childhood, I just lived and was raised by my mother. We are not a family, even my mother had to work every day to meet the needs of both of us... And ever since I was a child, I've been forced to live hard by circumstances. My mother began to get sick from continuing to work endlessly, so inevitably I had to replace my mother work and make money for the needs of our lives. Maybe it's because I'm a poor man, not someone who wants to be friends with me. But I don't blame that, maybe I'm too busy with my work. Even to be friends, I don't have time. " Obviously Cla, his eyes began to glaze over as he recalled his bitter life.

Xavier. It was unexpected, if this woman in front of him had such a heavy life.

" Can I ask you something? " Task Xavier

Cla turned his head towards Xavier and looked at him questioningly.

" If you may know... Where is your father? " Task her a little doubtful

The instant Cla's face changed, he turned his face away from Xavier and began to clench his hands firmly.

" ah.. Ii'm sorry. I didn't mean to hurt your heart. If you don't answer it's okay. Forget my stupid question. I'm sorry yes.. " Take Xavier with regret

" He's dead! " Answer Cla brief

" What? " Xavier was a little stunned by Cla's reply

" Yes.. My father's been dead a long time. Since I was 5 years old. " His reply while staring blankly ahead

" I'm sorry Cla. " Said Xavier, he then slowly grasped Cla's tightly clenched hand.

Cla turned his head and looked at Xavier's hand which was now holding his hand.

" If you feel sad now and want to cry, then cry. Make this shoulder of mine your back. " Say Xavier while looking at him deeply

Cla was silent, for a moment his heart felt warm as he looked at Xavier's face.

" You know.. Why was it when we first met, I immediately found out your name? " Task Xavier

" Because you heard Sofi call my name. " Answer to Cla

Xavier shook his head

" No. Actually was.. I knew you 2 years ago. " She said softly

" What?! " Say Cla was stunned

" I saw you sleeping in the library. I thought you were a young girl who was skipping study and hiding in the library to sleep. But when I tried to see you up close, I thought I was wrong. When I look at your face, your pretty face looks so tired. I even saw the look on the face of a hard worker there. And then I realized, you chose to sleep in the library because you wanted to find a quiet place to take a short break from your hard work.. " Say Xavier

Cla bowed, somehow the tears were now dripping from his eyes.

Suddenly Xavier's hand lifted and gently touched Cla's cheek. For a moment Cla was glued to his place. His eyes could not escape Xavier's gentle gaze when he looked at him.

" I wish I could replace your grief.. I don't want any more tears to come out of your beautiful eyes.. I don't want you to have a hard time alone anymore.. I don't want to see you pretend to be strong when your own body is so weak.. I want to be the first person who is always there for you.. I want to be the first person you remember and you look for when you need help.. I want to always be by your side.. Claresta Eren's. " Say Xavier softly

I don't know why Cla's heart is so sick. He held his chest firmly. These tears he can't stand anymore. Cla sobbed, he cried in silence. I don't know what fate he will face now..

Oh my... What's with my heart now? My heart is so painful now.. Why is fate so cruel to me.. Can I be a little selfish this time.. May I wish that this person in front of me was not the son of Anthony Maurer..
