Chapter 415 - Andy’s Morning-I

The young man walked out of his house, how good it was to him to come back to his house after days where he spend his day not outside at places he wasn't used to. The weather in German was colder than in China, thought the man. His hair strayed down from his face, pushing his hair, his green eyes looked around when he stopped at one room that was opened.

A maid came out with chuckles with her friend. Upon seeing Andy, the two were startled and went back after greeting him. He watched them running as if seeing him like a ghost. Unlike him, Mrs. Sophia tends to vent her anger to the maids. From outward appearance, no one could expect Mrs. Sophia to burst out of rage but it wasn't an unusual scene to Andy. He had seen many of his mother's anger that was often directed at him.

He walked down to the room as it was empty and saw how the place was the same room Mrs. Sophia used when she was still a doctor in the past. Now, the woman wasn't able to do anything due to her unstable mental illness. It was said to be bipolar syndrome. Andy doesn't know much about it as his father Mr. Cheng was usually the one to take care of Mrs. Sophia.

Walking down to the room, he saw many books, most of the books he likes which was about surgery and things that were related to medical. Andy recalled how hyped he was when he aimed to become a doctor. There was a hope in his heart that Mrs. Sophia would find him in a better light when he was still in high school. His hard work resulted in him finishing the medical school in a count of six years.

It took him the last year of his university to understand that whatever he do, he couldn't help the broken relationship he had with her. Because the woman herself refuse to accept him. Whatever he did at the point was all in vain. That was when he started to work in the hospital to be scouted by Chu Bing Luo. 

Chu Bing Luo was a very passionate man, who told him about the world of models and the benefits. Andy at first thought that it was useless at this point to do anything until he heard Chu Bing Luo promising him of chances to travel outside the country.

He accept the term. The major reason was to run away from the family that was haunting him. Doing a change in his career almost immediately but things work out for him well that made him famous since the first time he posted for a poster. 

Now he is here. Andy sighed, his eyes moving from the book he hold to watch the wooden ceiling up above. Xiao Yun is happy now, there would be no dead but happy ending for his dearest friend. He was happy but also at lost to what he should do now. 

There was Choi Kang So who now lives in the apartment he bought in China. Andy's green eyes rolled from the ceiling to see down below and turned his body when he noticed something. His body turned again, walking to the cupboard, he raised his hand to touch the lion doll. Seeing it, a smile came on his lips. He had left the doll in the old secret base and Xiao Yun must have been the one to return it here.

Andy took another look at the rooms in the house. It's good to be at home even if it wasn't his home. It was time to say good bye.

Taking a suitcase with him, he pulled to leave when he heard a voice, "Andy?"

Andy's shoes stopped and the wheel of his suitcase also stopped in time. His head turned around, to see Mrs. Sophia. Even without looking at her face, he could tell it was her.

"You have come back home." said Mrs. Sophia with a wide smile. 

How ironic thought Andy. Years had passed, but it took him two life to know the woman was the one who had destroyed his parent's life and adopted him to become her dead son. Yet he couldn't hate the woman.

Mrs. Sophia glanced down at the suitcase he had, "Are you going?"

"I decide to live in China forever. I will be quitting modeling too, I am pursuing the line as a doctor." smiled Andy yet his voice was toneless. His face turned to the house, not looking at Mrs. Sophia whose eyes were tears. "I hate this house." He started with a wider smile, a light stayed on his eyes and he repeated, "I hate everything about this house." A wide smile stretch his lips as he stared at the blue sky, "It feels good to say it aloud."

His face then turn to Mrs. Sophia and he watched how tears streaming from her cheeks but he didn't particularly feel anything maybe it was because the snow that freezes everything. "I know about everything. My mother and father, my grandfather, and their killer."

Each words made Mrs. Sophia to be frightened, "Their killer?"

"I have some useful advices on not to lie. It felt better not to do so... auntie." Andy spoke and a good amount of shades passed by Mrs. Sophia's face, "You did many things that I could never able to forgive but perhaps taking me in was your only kindness. I could put you in jail if I am able to do so but I decide not to. Placing everything in the past would be better for my mother."

"Andy-" started Mrs. Sophia and when Andy took a step forward, the woman quickly moved back in fear.

The expected pain Mrs. Sophia thought she would receive as she deserve, didn't come and the woman slowly opened to see Andy looking at her face in silence. A sincere smile came over his lips, "Don't put blame to others, they are not to blame. Also, take care of yourself. You may not hear anything about me anymore but I will be alive until sixty or seventy, you should live longer too." Raising his hand, he placed it over Mrs. Sophia's shoulder to turn away and wave his hand.

"Goodbye, mother."
