CHAPTER 4
LEO'S POV
"Who's that girl, cousin?" Kyle asked while smiling. Looks like he's going to get pissed off. We are now in the car and on our way home.
"I don't know! I can't remember!" I'm tired of him. He was still teasing me while I didn't know what to feel.
I remembered some of it. But I can't remember her face. I know we did it and I enjoyed it, I think.
"Last time I saw you at the bar was when you're with Letty." I immediately frowned. I can't remember most of what happened last night but I do remember Letty kissing a guy. it's impossible that I will do it with her. "She likes you. We can ask her-"
"No. It's impossible. I don't like her." I said.
"Cousin, s*x is s*x, okay? Even if you like Letty or not, it's still possible. Body heat doesn't choose anything, Leo."
"I don't like you." I promised Kyle.
"Of course, you're not. You're a baby." He just said and looked at me in the rear view mirror. "I'll ask Letty-"
"There's no need to." Kiel interrupted who was in the front seat next to Kyle. I looked at Kiel. "It's not Letty. I saw her with her boyfriend before we left at the bar last night."
"So, who is it?" Kyle asked.
"It's not a big deal anymore. It's just a one night stand." Kiel added.
"What if she gets pregnant?" I suddenly felt cold. "He didn't use a condom after all."
Yes indeed? What if she gets pregnant? What if he finds me? I'm not ready to be a dad yet! I'm not even ready to have a girlfriend, is it still a child?!
"Why, Kyle? How many times have you not used a condom with the women you had one night stands with? Did they get pregnant?" Kiel asked.
"Many. But this is a different story, man!"
"Just shut up about it, Kyle, will you? Your voice is irritating." Kiel was clearly irritated.
"He's on his period again." Kyle whispered that we heard.
"If she gets pregnant. She won't find Leo."
"How can you say that?"
"Because it's only a mistake? That's how it is, right? or maybe she will have an abortion."
Their conversation ended there because we were already at home. When the car stopped in front of the door, I immediately got out and entered the house. Mom turned to me.
I immediately hugged him.
"Oh my! Gabby, where did you go?! I thought you were only there until 10pm?! Why is it 10am?! I'm so worried!" He hugged me back.
"Mom, I have something to tell you..." my shoulder started to shake.
"A-are you okay?"
My tears flowed and I cried on his shoulder.
"M-mom..."
"Hmm?" Mom rubbed my back which made me cry even more.
I feel like I'm a bad child. I am a very bad child. I don't deserve it.
"Mom, I'm n-pregnant." I whispered to him.
"What?!" He immediately pushed me. I can see the shock on his face.
"I'm really sorry, mom!"
"Gabby..."
"I'm so sorry."
"It's okay, baby." He hugged me and rubbed my back.
"Auntie, he's just overacting. It's just a one night stand." I heard Kiel say behind me.
Mom immediately walked away. I can't tell what his expression is. Maybe she's disappointed.
"Oh... I thought..." mom sighed and looked at me. "Prepare your things. You too, Kiel and Kyle. Your grandfather wants to see you. We are going to America." He said and left.

Lori's POV
"What are you doing?!" Papa shouted angrily. "What did you do to get pregnant?!"
"You want to have grandchildren, right? so I did."
"It's Lori! That's not what I meant, Lori! What I want to convey is that you get married and have children! Double pacage! I want you to have children with your husband!"
"Oh, well! You know I don't want to get married. I'm too young for that!" i can't see my self being with a man in the future.
"You're 23! Where's that kid?! Baby damulaga, like that?! Get married so your child has a father!"
"I'm not pregnant, yet."
"Because they're married!"
"I do not want!"
"Don't you want to?!"
"I don't want to!" I shouted at him.
"They should be married!"
"Why?! Are you forcing me to get married?! No one will care about you if I get married! Just think about it."
"That's the point." My tears immediately flowed. "I don't want you here, suffering and taking care of me. I want someone to take care of you." I shook my head. "You don't have to come here. Why are you here?"
"Does it seem like it's my fault that I'm here?"
"It's really your fault. It's not necessary, eh."
"What?! I'm just going to leave you to die and rot in our litchi house?! Is that right?!"
"Yes it is!" He shouted back. I bit my lip until it bled before I entered the room.
Oh, it's crazy!

6 YEARS
"Mom! Mom! Mom!" I opened my eyes and Kian looked at me. I frowned and turned away from him.
"Go away. I want to sleep."
"Where's my brief?! I'm going in, what?! Wake up there!" He shouted in my ear.
"Oh, you!" I wanted to hold him but he quickly got away from me. "Find your brief yourself!"
"Grandpa! Mom, oh!" He ran naked outside, towards papa. I immediately chased after him. before he could reach papa, I got him. "Let go of me!"
"Shut up! You're like a child, huh."
"I'm really young, ah! You, you think you're young!"
"Oh, really!" I tightened my grip on him until he writhed in pain.
"Ah, alas! Alas!"
"Lori, let go of my grandson!" I immediately let go of Kian. Kian immediately ran to dad.
"Grandpa, he doesn't want to find my bried!" He reported.
"Why? Don't you have eyes?" I will tease you.
"Grandpa, oh. Mom!"
"Lori, shut up there! Look for his brief!" I entered the room and took a brief from the cabinet. I left the room and threw Kian the brief that papa caught. "Did your mom fight you? Are you okay, grandson?"
"It's fine, bro."
Ah, he loves his grandson more than his son.
"You are really handsome, grandpa. always thank the Lord that you look like your father and not your mother."
What the-
"Yes. I always do that." Dad dressed Kian so I took a shower and got dressed for work.
"I'm leaving, grandfather." Kian said to dad when I left the room after getting dressed. He gave dad a kiss on the cheek and went to me. "I'm leaving." I nodded and he also nodded and left.
"Don't be like that to your son."
"What can be like that?"
"You are very harsh with him."
"Are you saying?"
"Can you fail him with a kiss."
"He doesn't need that."
"Daughter, your son is only five years old. He needs so much love-"
"I love him, still. I know he knows that too. He's smart." I just said and left the house.
I went to the restaurant where I worked. I'm just a janitor here. I don't have a decent job.
"Good morning, Carol." I congratulate my co-worker who is also a janitor.
"Morning." I dressed in our uniform before helping.
many customers came, clean here, clean there. Until lunch break.
"How is your son?"
"All right."
"Does your head still hurt?"
"Yes always." Carol laughed.
"That boy is handsome."
That afternoon, Kian was already outside the restaurant. he always waits for me after he finishes school.
"Hi." I promise.
"Yo." He approached me. "Buy us a goto." I nodded and went to the park. I bought goto for both of us. "For grandpa? Buy grandpa."
"Leave that old man alone."
"Mom!" I just smiled and bought a goto for dad.
---Tomorrow----
"That's a fight for the rich." Carol said while looking at a table where someone was fighting.
"Don't worry about that." I just promised and went to CR to clean up. I cleaned the sink. I heard someone come in. I immediately finished cleaning. When I was going out I met a familiar man.
"Kiel." I mentioned his name. It's been a few years and I still can't forget the name of the man who took me to Gabby. the man behind everything and also the bartender. But never mind that.
"Excuse me?"
