Promised

Chapter 7

Yes, I admit that I was just born but can I still be called a match when Poirier and I no longer have anything to go through? Except for our connection because of Poinier.

But why did this woman rush?

"Mrs. Del Fierro, I hope you're still thinking clearly. I won't deny that I don't know Poirier. I'm in your territory so slow down on the words that come out of your mouth. Also, I don't understand why you're here and I just want to tell you that no one is stealing from your husband. I'm not even competing with you just to get Poirier's attention. I don't know if you're stupid or if you're just crazy. Did you see that? I stepped into your territory just to get your wife's attention? Did you see me once seduce Poirier just to make you afraid that I might get him from you? That I would use his innocent child?" After my long statement I also asked him.

There is no point in him coming here. Why would he warn me when Poirier chose him and his son? And why is he so angry with me?

Does it look like...I'm taking his wife away from him?

That Poirier voluntarily left and distanced himself from us? He cut off communication with us and completely didn't show any signs. Even his son was forgotten by him.

So how do I steal Poirier?

"Why... You speak so well! It's not just your body that you used to seduce my husband... You talk like a pro but the truth is you're just a fool!" he shouted.

I clenched both my fists because I admitted that I was ignorant. I didn't study. But the way he said this to me is one of the bad manners of a rich son like him.

"I'll admit that I'm ignorant, Mrs. Del Fierro but you've been beaten by an uneducated person because of your attitude. Honestly...I'm not doing anything to make you fear for your husband. Why did you rush?" he asked me with raised eyebrows. I can't help but fight him. Because he already threw so many words at me.

"Because you are stealing everything that should be for me! You shouldn't have dipped into my husband's wealth of money anymore! You shouldn't have gotten pregnant so that you are no longer an obligation to him! Where is your son?! Where is he so I can tell him that he will never see my husband again because he has been forgotten! Tell your daughter, Reolla Moon that you are just a match! Just a match and give birth! Tell your son that Poirier loves our son Zoer more! That's why he wasn't there yesterday for his birthday, there was a celebration at our mansion!" he shouted.

Even though there was still a barrier between us, that didn't stop me from reaching his face and I slapped him hard on his cheek.

"We keep quiet here and don't ever insult us! And don't ever involve my son in this!" I shouted almost severing a nerve in my neck because of the force of my shouting.

His eyes widened and he couldn't help but touch his hurt cheek.

"I don't care if I'm just an accessory to Poirier and I don't care if you're his legal wife!" I shouted at the look on his face and my breathing became heavy. It raised its chin.

Before I completely exploded due to anger and annoyance with that girl, I turned away. I left him there losing his mind.

"Come back here, Reolla Moon! We have a lot more to talk about! Remember that you are just an accessory and you have no right to my husband! So stop him! Don't ever call him again! Don't disturb our family!" I even heard him say it.

I just shook my head and blew air out of my mouth. He has lost his mind.

"Reolla Moon! We're not done yet! The next time I come back here I'll make sure you're gone!"

My eyes rolled at what he said and I finally went inside but I was surprised to see my son.

He was standing near the front door and his cheeks were full of tears. His eyebrows, eyes and nose are red.

"Poinier," I worriedly said his name and was about to touch him when he suddenly pulled back.

"Son... What happened? Are you okay? Is something... hurt?" I asked worriedly. I even knelt in front of him to match him. I couldn't touch him because he was moving away.

"Poinier, what happened?"

"Is that true, M-Mama?!" she asked crying. I didn't understand him at first but when I remembered what I did to him earlier and the girl I was talking to outside now I know.

He heard... He heard his woman scream.

"Poinier..."

"Is it true that you're just a mistress, Mama?! W-Are you just hooking up with...my Daddy has another...wife?!" he asked me. I shook my head and the corners of my eyes were burning.

"Son... That's right... You'll understand this too... one day..."

"I understand, Mama! I-I understand now! That's why... W-That's why we don't have Daddy with us right now... That's why he's always gone! That's why...he doesn't live here with us , M-Mama. Because... He has another family..." My tears began to fall because of his complaint. It hurts to see...

It's like thousands of needles are stabbing me in my chest because of the pain in my heart.

"Poinier... I'm sorry, my son... Sorry, baby..."

"Mama... M-Mama, he doesn't love us... D-Daddy doesn't l-love us..." he complained and I didn't have a hard time holding him because he was the one willing. came to me and hugged me.

I was infected by my son's loud crying. Her tears did not stop flowing.

"I-I'm not...hoping that D-Daddy will come on my next birthday... That's right... That's right, M-Mama... But... But Mama..I still love my Daddy very much... Even though he doesn't love me anymore..."

"That's not true, son... Your Daddy still loves you... You are his only princess so Mama knows that your Daddy Poirier loves you very much..." I comforted to him and I wiped the tears from his cheeks. Because of her crying, she could hardly open her eyes.

"He's with someone else. That's not me anymore, my Mom That's not me anymore..." he said shaking his head. I kissed her forehead and she cried more on my chest.

Poinier was too young to understand what he heard earlier. But now he will really know everything.

About his Daddy. Having this other family apart from us.

But at first I knew...I couldn't give my son a complete family. The only thing I'm thankful for is that her Daddy still loves her very much. I shouldn't doubt that. Because I can see right in his eyes. He loves his son very much.

I just watch my son while he sleeps. His cheeks were wet with tears and his eyes were full of tears. He slept through his crying and I'm sorry he heard all that.

I took her hand and gently kissed her back. Then I caressed her hair again and again.

"I love you so much, my son. No matter what happens, I will be here for you... I will never leave you... Never... Mama loves you very much, Poinier. I will protect you from anyone who tries to hurt you... I won't let that happen because I will kill myself, my son..." I said softly and kissed her head.

"D-Daddy..." I heard him whisper. Even in sleep he is still looking for his Daddy.

I know one day you too will be happy my child... Not yet but I know it will be soon. You too can get rid of that sadness and pain, Poinier. That's Mama's promise...

I didn't realize that I had fallen asleep next to him and when I woke up he was no longer in the bed. I immediately got nervous and got up.

"Poinier... Son, Poinier!" I called my son in a panic and rushed out.

"Poinier..." I took big steps just to get down from the stairs.

"Mommy?" I quickly approached Poinier's place when I heard his voice. He was just in the living room sitting on the sofa while he was holding my cellphone. I know the reason why he is holding it now. He also tries to call his Daddy. Even if I'm not the one doing it anymore.

"Are you okay, Mom?" he asked in a worried voice. I sat next to him and kissed his cheek, I had three more kisses before I found myself staring at his gentle face.

I don't know why I was afraid to see my son not by my side. I was too nervous in my chest earlier. I think I'm becoming negative about everything and overthinking so badly that I'm really confused.

I sighed and looked at the TV flat screen. I just smiled when I saw what he was watching. His favorite movie is Barbie.

"It's okay, my child. I was just worried when I didn't see you by my side. I'm not used to you getting out of bed earlier. I often see you still asleep. Have you been awake lately? Have you been watching Barbie lately?" I asked him softly.

His smile is wide and somehow I don't see him sad anymore. It's like he forgot what happened to him earlier. His loud cries and what he heard from that woman. That I didn't really intend to hear that so I preferred him to stay here in the living room and sit on the sofa but he is too curious a child.

And couldn't stop himself from listening to what the elders were talking about. If only I had known that this would happen, I would not have had to deal with Poirier's wife and my son would not have heard any bad words. He wouldn't have cried like that.

"I just don't want you to wake up, Mama... I've already seen two movies with Barbie. Mama... can you cook me a pizza? I want a snack, Mama... I'm hungry, eh..." he said as if embarrassed. I nodded and kissed his forehead.

"Sure, my son. Just stay here and I'll cook. Mama will make pizza for her baby," I said goodbye to her.

"Thank you, Mom! I love you!" he said happily and he also kissed me on the cheek.

I went to the kitchen and made a pizza. I waited half an hour for me to finish. I have prepared the two pizzas I cooked. There was also orange juice in the pitcher then I brought Poinier back to the living room.

He was already leaning on the sofa and focused on the TV he was watching. My cellphone is on the center table. When he saw me he applauded.

"Pizza time!" I laughed because my son looked hungry.

We happily shared one pizza and said we would eat the other later. I joined in watching him while my mother and I also played together. He kept laughing every time I poked his side.

A week has passed. I've also noticed that Poinier doesn't often ask me about his Daddy. It's like he's not looking for it anymore. That often he would really kiss Poirier.
