Dreb's POV
I was still in bed and yawned first before getting up. I saw the milk on the side table with a note. "Good morning Dreb , drink this before you go downstairs " it's a note with a smile emoji. I reached the milk and drink it. I smiled and I remember the wedding will be next week. I'm now ready to be with Lenna but there's a part of me saying I shouldn't do this. I sighed and shook my head, I clear what's on my mind and went downstairs. I saw Lenna is cooking some breakfast, I went towards her and looked at her tummy. It's getting bigger and bigger, I will take care of this child. I promise myself I will be a great dad to our baby.
"You're awake" I nodded and sit on the chair and continue to drink my milk. I took my phone on my pocket and saw the messages of Aly and Davis. I wondered what is this. I open the messages and I was surprised when they sent me a photo of Kevin. I made a wide smile and call Aly immediately.
"We found him, but he's alone" my smile fades when he said that, I thought they also found Andrea's mom. I sighed and took a deep breath. Lenna tapped my shoulders and I hid my phone. She did not know about this stuff, Maybe if she find out she's get angry at me again. I looked at her and smile. I rubbed her tummy "Hi baby, be good to mommy okay?" she smiled at me and rubbed my hair.
"Is there something wrong Dreb?" she suddenly asked me and I did not answer. I looked at her eyes and I fake to smile. She would be hurt if I tell her, it's better not to tell her for the baby's health. "Nothing's wrong, don't worry about it"
"Okay, I'll just finish our breakfast" she went back to the kitchen and continue to cook. I walked slowly to the living room and get my phone. I looked at the photos again and all I can see is kevin. His face had a lot of bruises and there's a blood on the side of his clothes. I just can;t imagine what might Kevin experienced in Mellisa's hands. She's willing to kill her own daughter and son. I sighed and put my phone back to my pocket, I turned my back on Lenna and she's still cooking. I decided to went upstairs and take some shower first.
I went downstairs after I take a bath, it was a very fast bath. I went to the dining area, Lenna prepare the food on the table. She look at me and I think she thinks I'm suspicious.
I started to eat the food and just ignore the stare of Lenna to me. "is there anything you would like to tell me?" I stop eating as she asked me that. I put down the utensils and look at her eyes.
"don't think to much, it's just Aly"
"if it is, why didn't you show me the message?" I couldn't look straight to her eyes. I just ignore it and stand up.
"I'll gotta go" I get my keys but I was surprised when she shouted at me. "Dreb! How can you treat me like this? Do you really want us to be like this everyday?"
"Lenna just calm yourself, I didn't do anything wrong. I'll gotta go" I slammed the door and went inside my car. I know what I did is wrong, I just got annoyed when she asked me that.
I drive and went to Aly and Davis. They looked at me in a weird look, "what happened?" they asked me. I sighed before answering.
"Lenna is angry at me, she's suspecting me. She keep and always asking me about Andrea. I'm over with it. I'm sick of it"
They look at me and nodded. "but, what Lenna said is right. You care for Andrea until now right?"
"stop it guys" I just look away and get my car keys and went to the mall. The employees greeted me, I went straight to my office and sit on my swivel chair.
The wedding is coming but we had a fight. I think this is a sign for us to not do the wedding. "stop thinking Dreb" I said while playing on my swivel chair. I shook my head and clear my mind, I look at my phone and saw the greetings of the people who got invited. They all congratulate me, I was happy back then but right now I don't know anything at all. I lay down my head on my swivel chair.
I turned my swivel chair around, someone knock the door and enter. I stop and get a serious look.
"good morning Mr. Mendoza, I have good news for you" my secretary told me and handed me the tablet on his hand.
I looked at the tablet and saw the sales are going up. For the last few months our sales is very high. Most of the people choose our mall as their favorite mall in the country. I smiled and tell my secretary to tell the employees to get home early and rest.
All are happy to hear the news of Dreb. It's 5pm and I was about to exit the mall when I saw Lenna on the entrance. I looked at her and looked away. She went towards me and hugged me. "I'm sorry Dreb, I shouldn't do that. I'm trusting you and I won't do it anymore" I feel she's sincere after all I'm at fault too.
"I'm sorry too, I just got annoyed with the question. Just trust me okay?" she nodded and faced me. She smiled at me and hold my hands. "let's go home together" I nodded and we went to the car together.
I opened the door for her and went inside the car. I drive and we went home. I opened the door for her and we went I side the house. I turn on the lights and look at her tummy. She's 4 months pregnant now, it's nor that big but it's getting bigger and bigger.
She rest first and went to her room. I went to my room, I lay on bed and stretch my body. I cover my body with my blanket after I turn on the aircon. I slowly closed my eyes and take some nap.
A cloudy and windy day woke me up, I yawned and get up, I went to the bathroom and look myself at the mirror. My dark circles are so big, I went closely on the mirror and fixed myself before going downstairs.
"morning"
"morning" I sir down on the dinning chair and drink the coffee serve by Lenna. "how's the coffee?"
"it's delicious" I smiled.
After I finished the coffee I went straight to the mall. I went straight to the office but suddenly I bumped into someone. Someone I'm familiar with. I looked at him and he look at me.
"brother Dreb?" I smiled as he speak. Finally, I found Kevin.
"Kevin?"
He went towards me and hugged me. "where's my sister Andrea?"
"it's a very long story kevin, let's go to my office" he follow me and sit down in front of me.
I tell him all what happened to Andrea. I also told him that I'm getting married with Lenna. He was angry at me because he thinks I left Andrea alone on her worst days.
"I'm sorry" I bow my head to him.
"I have to talk to her, I want her to know you still love her. Do you still love her right?" I look away as he asked me that.
"I'm now happy with Lenna Kevin, but I tell you the truth that I have been protecting her when I found out she has amnesia. I love her until then but now I have a responsibility to take care of."
"are you really in love with Lenna? Or you're just taking the responsibility because you don't want to feel guilty?" I can't answer his question because I also myself didn't don't know what do to anymore. I'm confused, I think he has a point. I don't what to feel guilty to Lenna. I just want her to be happy and take care of our child.
I just down my head and sighed. I look to him and just smiled. "I think, you had a point but our wedding is coming and there's nothing who can stop us"
"I will do anything to help you and tell my sister everything I knew."
"please don't tell her Kevin. I'm just happy for her and Xander"
"so? You're now giving up? I didn't think you were that kind of person. I know you're not like this"
I took a deep breath and lay my head on the desk of the table. I'm really confused, "am I really in love with Lenna?" I asked myself when Kevin left the office.
