Dreb's POV
"What are you doing with our son?"Lenna asked me angrily, I sighed and look at her.
"You don't understand, I'm just doing this for him. All for him"
"No! You are doing this for yourself!"
"Why is that? I can't understand you, I'm just doing this for our son. He will be successful someday just let me teach him"
She just leave the room and went to Leo's room. I hold my head, I want to be mad at her but I can't. I just took a deep breath and lay on my bed, "What should I do now? I'm just trying to become a better dad but Lenna see it as bad" I was speaking while looking at the ceiling.
A sunlight strike in my eyes, I was about to hug Lenna when I realize she was not here. I get up and went downstairs. No one is here except for our nanny. I went back to my room and look at the bathroom. My heart suddenly beats fast, I feel nervous and I can't think straight. I went to Leo's room but no one is here. I went downstairs and asked our nanny, she look at me with her sad face. I have a bad feeling about this.
"Can you tell me where are they?"
She took a deep breath and faced me "They left" I was shocked and I didn't believe this is happening. I can't lose them, I have to find them . I hurriedly pull out my phone on my pocket and dial her number.
"The number you dialed is either unattended or out of coverage area" I feel useless now, I don't know how to find them. I get my car keys and drive to start finding them. I went to their favorites places here but I can't find them. I dial again her number and she answer finally.
"Where are you?"
"Don't find us, we're going home now and you can't stop us"
"You can't do that Lenna. Leo is my son too"
"I want divorce" my eyes widened as my heart skips a beat, I get myself back and drive fast to the airport. I was outside and hurriedly run to went outside, I can't let them go home without me. I run fast as I could but I was too late, the plane just flew now. I was looking at the big window and saw the plane. I knelt on the ground while tears are falling from my eyes.
"Mr.?"someone tap my back I look up and a woman was in front of me. She was smiling and reaching her hands to me. I just looked away and stand alone, she just staring at me , I felt weird and walked away.
"HEY!" she shouted and all people look on us. I look back , I just roll my eyes and continue to walked away. I went to my car and started the engine but suddenly that woman went inside my car. I sighed and look back at her again, my eyes widened as I saw a very familiar face.
"Don't you miss me?"she asked me but I'm really confused right now. I just stare at her and looking at her. She just smile and suddenly she hit me with her bag on my head.
"What's your problem?" I shouted but she just laughed.
"Don't you remember me?" I just shook my head while still looking at her.
She took a deep breath "It's me, Your Aunt" I was shocked and now I know why her face is so familiar. "Aunty Jing?"
"Yes, the one and only" she said with a wide smile on her lips.
"Why are you here?"
"I'm here for a vacation and I was about to take my flight when I saw you on the ground kneeling. So, I didn't go home and I want to ask you why are you kneeling down on the ground. As far as I can remember, Mendoza's are cold hearted persons . Are you really a Mendoza?" he asked me with a teasing sound.
I just roll my eyes "My wife left me" I had a long face while saying it.
"Did you cheat?"
"No, she just think I'm bring too much with our son. But I'm just trying my best to teach my son to have a better future"
"I think she don't understand, a person like you can teach everything about business. Bu I think your wife is right too, maybe she don't want your son to be a cold person and don't know how to communicate with others. She think that your son can live a normal life just like other kids."
"But my son is a Mendoza, he will take care of everything if the day has come for me"
" I understand what you feel but you have to consider your son's feelings too, okay? And I have to go, I'm meeting a new friend. Just text me your address and I'll come to visit you after I went back home" I just nod my head and she left. I think she's right, what if my son didn't want to be a business man? I can't let that happen. I want him to be happy but I'm thinking of his future.
I'm at home when I noticed the lights we're off. I went inside and turn it on. I was surprised when I saw Lenna on the sofa. She's sleeping and her face looks really exhausted. I went towards her and sit beside her. I really think they would leave me here, but I was wrong. She loved me and I think she would never leave me. I was smiling when someone speak.
"Sir? "
"Sir?" I look to who is speaking. I saw our nanny looking at me.
"Uhmm?"
"Dinner is ready"
"Okay, Lenna let's eat"I said but she's gone. No one is in the sofa. The living room is empty so as the house.
"Madam didn't came back"
"But she was just here"
"No one is in there Sir. I was also surprised when you are smiling on your own" I was shocked, Lenna is just right here sleeping. I was with her side but why she's gone now?
(Better to read this scene with a sad music, Going crazy thinking about you by Caesar Wu🎶)
The people I love leaves me. In this world I think I'm the saddest and lonely person. I should live my life alone. I think the universe don't want me to be happy with my life.
I was staring at the ceiling, a tear fell on my eyes. I missed them, I missed my son and my wife. I wiped my tears while I lay my head on the side of my bed.
Why everybody leaves me? Why I can't be happy? Why I ended to be like this? I want to be happy. I just want to live a peaceful and happy life with them. Why destiny can't cooperate with me?
I was on the floor and I slowly feel my body was about to fell on the floor. My body feels heavy and I can't even feel if I'm still breathing or not. I just know I'm now hurt and in pain.
My memories with my son and Lenna came to my flashbacks. Every seconds and minutes we have been together is my happiness until now. I will cherish that memories and I can't even live my life without them. I was being a better person but how this happened? How I ended on this situation?
Many questions are inside my mind right now. I think I'm being punished for what I've done in my past life.
Someone knocked the door but I was too weak to stand.
"Sir? Eat your dinner first before you sleep. I will put it here in the door"
After 3 days, I still didn't want to eat. I didn't went to work and I didn't sleep properly. I was still in the floor laying while tears still falling. Days without them is nothing. I think I can't my life without them. I want to see them. I want to see my son. I want to see them.
"Mister? You didn't eat your meals. I'm worried for you and your health. Just have some bite first mister. I know Madam will come back here"
I slowly opened my eyes and just stare at the door. It was about a minute I'm just looking at the door. I was about to get up but my body can't move. I'm too weak to get up.
I can't even talk loudly.
I was so weak, a tear fell off my eyes and suddenly my eyes slowly closing. That's the last thing I remember and I didn't know what happened next.
Someone holding my wrist and I slowly opened my eyes. I saw Aunty Jing crying besides me. I looked around and I saw my nanny sleeping in the sofa here inside. I'm in the hospital I guess. There's a dextrose in my hands.
I slowly reached my hands to my Aunt. She look up and smile when she see me.
"why did you do that?" she asked me with her worry tone.
"I miss them"
