Chapter 8 What is love?! 5

silence fell in the garden after An's question.

"An, your mother I were friends before that horrible day of her death and that's the only reasonwhy I changed careers. from being a "secretary" to your "care taker". your unending questioning makes me think that I have failed my job at bringing you up however, am not to say no to that .

that's because I failed you 20yrs ago. when I failed to convince your uncle to send you to school and now..... it's too late.

24yrs ago,

An kaizi , An kai's father went to middle East to look for corroborations from other distributing companies so as to increase the number of good exports brought to Roriland since it had a small industrial percentage that didn't even reach 5% of its supplied goods.

Majorine, a 24yr old by then, worked as a secretary at Indda Distributors limited.

she was from a well known family but due to her course of existence, left a black mark on her in the eyes of those who knew the truth.

her father, was from Roriland but her mother was woman from C city . she had a mixed bloodline. she had very goods looks that no one could resist especially those with wolfly hearts when it came to women.

Zan Yan, from Roriland was no exception!!

he was already married by the time he met Majorine's mother. he promised her marriage and with some few dotings , the woman gave in and she told him she was pregnant after one month. but the letter was unexpected!!

" I have I wife in my home country. it will be best if you don't cause me trouble....and you can as well abort that thing if you want to. it may have no place in this world. Zan Yan told thewoman across him after two months of sparkling love between the two.

but the woman didn't cry nor begge. she listened quietly at the man's blubberings.

love is truly like chromatography test that eliminates weak elements and move with stronger ones. I have been strong all my life so, I can't give upon what's mine.

am keeping the baby. come look for me ifyou ever need it!Cathy said before leaving the café.

6yrs letter,

old Zan was very sick in Roriland. tried to tell his son to remarry since the woman he married failed to conceive. but his sonrefused reasoning that it would break his wife's heart.

Good days are always numbered!!

one night, Zan Yan wet out but on his way back, he got into an accidentand rashed in to the hospital.

by time old Zan arrived at the hospital, his condition was it's peak.

your son wants to talk to you now but am afraid he won't make so, talk to him before we proceed with our next treatment. the doctor said as he led old Zan in to the emergency room.

Father, am sorry ...am sorry that I made my life a joke. am sorry for not being a good husband to my wife.... and am for not being a good father as well!. ask my wife to forgive me and please forgive me father. I was immature when I chose to betray you and my wife....and worst is that innocent blood of mine that I left on streets to feed itself. am sorry for being a bad son to you...am sorry for being a horrible father too.

old Zan looked at his son with a ridiculed smile as he asked angrily "where did you leave it?" which Street a you talking about?.
