My little adventures
It is the day that I come to realize that I am happier by just simply listening and watching others happily ever after come true. And that's how my little adventure starts. Chi-Chi is my friend for quite a long time. I know her since when we are in high school. I have witness her ups and downs. But this time, Chi-Chi changes for some reason. I don't know the exact reason. But as far as I know, the Chi -chi that I know, who is childish, sweet, loves violet and pink, talks about Barbie and a bit care free person, suddenly changes. Days have passed, Chi-Chi came to my store and said that life definitely happier when you found someone better more than yourself. I really don't get what Chi-Chi said that time until one day That she told me that she got pregnant and wanted to abort the child. To my surprise, no words came out to my mouth to give her courage, instead I invited her to join me in a camp for my store's improvement.
While I am busy doing some camp activities. I let Chi-Chi wander around the camp. There she saw kids who are learning how to cook and bake. For quite sometimes, she takes a peek at the window and watches the kids cooking and baking. So, I talk to the chef , and told him about Chi-Chi. The kind chef accepted my plea and let Chi-Chi- join t the class and for sometimes I join the class too. Just to make sure Chi-Chi is doing good. Then one night, while we are talking a walk after dinner, Chi-Chi holds my hand and said, " help me, please help me." Then she starts telling me what really happened. Tears drops like a water fall as she talks. After she finishes her talking, I decided to take some actions in my own hands.
Geo the chef, notices the good development that Chi-Chi is getting. And he notices also that I am spacing out during his class. So I decided to tell him but not in details about Chi-Chi's situation. And to my surprise, he has a good advise for Chi-Chi. So I as for his help. First we talk to Charles, Chi-Chi's boyfriend. Geo and I explain to him about Chi-Chi's current situation. Charles wants to take responsibility for the child but not to Chi-Chi. Geo notices that I am getting angry , so he hold my hand and press it hard, I try to be calm, and listen to Charles...Before he met Chi-Chi Charles is already engaged with someone ,a fix marriage, for business merging. Charles hands are tied he said. He must take responsibility of the family business to take the respect of his father. Then I said, " You want to take responsibility for your family business, yet you cannot take responsibility to the action you have already done to my friend. Then let see Charles, if your father will be respecting you after he hears my story about you and my friend". Not Knowing, Charles' father, hears us talking.
After that heart breaking talk to Charles. Geo and I decided to tell the truth to Charles' father. At the office, his father kindly let us in. As I open my mouth, and explain our purpose, Charles' father wants to abort Chi-Chi's child. Geo tries to stop me, but I burst out all my anger and said," Like father like son that's who you are, you are teaching your child responsibility, dignity and respect, yet your decisions to this situation shows how irresponsible you are. I have my business on my own too and yes it is important to me actually it is my life. But in times like this, Business crises, is what you are saying over a child's life is more important. Well... you definitely teaching Charles responsibility, dignity and respect. Hope Charles will make your business prosper, While I will take the responsibility for your future grandchild or let me say your future ex-grandchild". Charles hears our conversation. Then enters the office. Geo and I go back home sad and disappointed and preparing ourselves to explain to it to Chi-Chi.
At the door Chi-Chi waits for us with teary eyes. Then she said to us," Charles wants to talk to me tomorrow". I ask," Do you want me to join you?" " No I need. I have to do this on my own", she replied.
The day came, Chi-Chi wakes up early. Because I am worried about her I followed her. In A café near our shop they meet. I am nervous even though I can't hear their conversation. Two hours have past, the two came out, hug each other and bid goodbye. It seems like that they are really aborting the child. I run as fast as I can to our shop. Then a few minutes later Chi-Chi came. "How's your talk?" I say. Chi-Chi Cried so loud. I run towards her and give her a glass of water and ask her to sat down. Then, she says" Charles.... Cha.. Charles said he wants to.... he wants both of us to live together and raise our child in a simple life without his father's help". I thought it is a bad news.... and I want to go to Charles and give him a punch.... but I guess my punch will not be in used today.... I hug Chi-Chi tightly.... and said, " That's very good I thought your child would be having two mothers". Chi-Chi smiled at me and said ," Thank you ."
The phone rings and guess who was it, it's Geo. Because of happiness I told Geo the good news. And he is so glad to hear it. So I decided to invite him to celebrate this good news and to thank him as well for his help. But then Geo said," I am happy for her.... but right now I can't be with the two of you to celebrate your happiness. My brother is in jail right now and I need to fix it first." That's Terrible', I said.
