Unforgettable Love

Episode 13 - Ask the heart

(Xandra p.o.v)

My phone rang and Gabriel’s name on the screen. I was not sure wherher I wanted to answer it but I couldn’t cheat myself that I’m excited to see his name on the screen. It has been about two weeks after he sent me home. I picked up the call and answered. His voice was cold, “Xandra, we need to talk. I’ll pick you up at ten tomorrow morning”. With that he cut the line off. I was so pissed off and rang him back, and when I heard his voice, I just burst it out, “What the hell is this about?. You not even asked me  whether I’m free or not. And for you information, I have a discussion tomorrow morning at 9:30am at the University. So I cant meet you”. I heard he deeply breathing, maybe controlling his anger. Well I don’t care. Served him right. He can’t go messing with other people lives and forced them to follow his schedule or time suited to him.

He sighed. “ Fine. Called me when your discussion is finish. I’ll pick you up at the University”. Before I can say anything, he cur off the line. I feel like kicking him now. I really hate when he did this. Such an arrogant man. Why he always such a d**k. Couldn’t he be like other people. I was actually nervous to meet him after the last occasion. Something must come up. I don’t like this last minute arrangement cause I’m not sure what was happening for the last 2 weeks. He was mad at me. He did not even called me once after that. I was angry with him but also I missed him. His voice, his charm and his stupid bossy and possessive behaviour. “What’s is happening to me?”, I sighed. Should I tell him the truth about Mady. Will he believed me.  

Then I heard a knock on my door. “Yeah, come in”. Minho head came to view. “Hei... are you okay?”, he asked. I scrunched my cheeks. But he just rolled his eyes and added, “I’ve been knocking your door for quite some time. Didn’t you hear it?. That’s why I asked whether you’re okay or not”. I felt stupid and sorry. “I’m sorry Minho... It’s nothing”. “Is it about Mady and Gabriel?”, he announced. I just nodded my head. “Well, I think he needs to know the truth. Anyway, how long do you think you can keep the secret?. I think as of now, he already knew Mady is his. It just that he yet to say that to you. Or maybe he was waiting for you to tell him”.

I just looked at Minho and asked “And then what? After he knows about it?”.

“Depends on you and him?”, he smiled. “Xan, just relax. Anyway, if he don’t accept Mady, there was nothing change. You have been independent all this time”. 

I just feel unsatisfied, “What if he wanted Mady?”. Minho smirked and hugged me, “Then my dear, asked yourself here”. Nudging his finger to the heart and smiled. I just sighed and smiled back to him. Still not very sure what to do but Minho was right, sooner or later I’ll have to tell Gabriel that he is Mady’s father but at the same time, I don’t want others to take that I trapped him with Mady. I really did not how things going to move forward and I am really scared. I don’t want to be hurt again and I don’t want anything to hurt Mady.
