Chapter 25 - Should Gabriela be honest?

On the way to the hospital Gabriela couldn't stop sighing when she heard her mother's voice crying.

Couldn't her mother just shut up for a bit and not make Gabriela more dizzy?

At least give Gabriela time to focus on driving the car she is currently driving.

She didn't want anything to happen to her either, let Gabriela get to the hospital safely.

Actually the woman was also worried about her husband but Gabriela tried to hold back the sadness that was in her heart, somehow Gabriela suddenly felt sad to hear the news about her husband, usually she would not care about anything related to Aris.

Let it go, maybe Gabriela has started to realize how valuable an Aris is in her life.

In the past, Gabriela had indeed wasted it but now she will regret it for the rest of her life if Aris is gone forever.

Actually the woman was also worried about her husband but Gabriela tried not to show her sadness in front of her mother.

I don't know what happened to Gabriela so that the woman suddenly felt sad when she heard the news about Aris.

"Hiksss."

"Can you stop crying mom, mom makes me not focus on driving." Gabriela scolded, "I am also sad to hear this news but it would be better for you to take care of my feelings by not crying in front of me."

"I feel like I want to cry too like you, Mom. But somehow my brain forbids me to do it." Gabriela said in her heart.

"Aris, La. How could he have an accident like this."

Despite being reprimanded by Gabriela, Sarah still couldn't stop crying.

Sarah cried over what her son-in-law was experiencing.

"Never mind, Mom. Don't cry. Aris must be fine. You'd better stop crying and start praying for Aris."

Gabriela's words immediately received a scolding from her mother, "You can say that when your husband has an accident?! Aren't you worried about your husband at all, La? Why do you look so calm."

"Then what should i do? We have to see Aris's condition first to see if he's okay or not, Mom."

Not wanting to argue with her mother, Gabriela chose to refocus on the road ahead.

Meanwhile, Sarah chose to cry again and ignore Gabriela's warning.

"Hiksss my son-in-law, I hope you are fine."

"Of course Aris will be fine, Ma'am." Gabriela glanced at her mother, "Have you told them yet?"

Sarah wiped the traces of tears on her face, "Enough. Your father and mother-in-law are now heading to the hospital."

"I feel bad that I wasn't the one who told them this right away."

Sarah smiled then rubbed the back of her son's hand, "Mother has conveyed your apology to them and they also understand it. They know you must be devastated by this news and therefore, you can't tell them. They also asked how you were after knowing Aris had an accident-"

"Then what did you answer?" Gabriela cut in, "You didn't say that my response was normal, right? Oh come on, mom. I'm also devastated and sad to know that Aris had an accident but now I'm trying to stop myself from crying." Stupid Gabriela.

Although her heart felt a little sad after it was reported that Aris had had an accident, the woman dismissed this and replaced it with Rendy's disappearance for almost 3 years.

In fact, Gabriela was basically insensitive to her feelings for Aris.

"Mom also said that, La. I know you must be very sad but you cover it behind your face that looks like you don't care."

Sarah tilted her body and faced her daughter who was focused on driving, "La, would you believe it if mother ever thought that actually you and Aris were only pretending to be a happy couple when in front of all of us. Or do you really have a happy life?"

Gabriela secretly gripped the steering wheel tightly after hearing the question that came out of her mother's mouth, "Did mom know about my relationship with Aris all this time just pretending? But if so, how did mom find out about it while I had told Aunty Elis not to tell anyone that I didn't treat Aris as a husband," thought Gabriela.

"But if Aunty Elis didn't tell mom, then why did mom suddenly ask like thatif me and Aris look happy shouldn't mom be happy but why did mom ask that. Don't mom want me and Aris to live happily?" Gabriela asked in her heart.

"La..." Sarah called.

The woman blinked her eyes when she heard her mother call, "Yes?"

"Have you really been living happily with Aris for the past three years?"

"What is the meaning of your question and why did you suddenly ask like that?"

Sarah shrugged her shoulders quickly then turned her eyes to the street in front of her, "Mom used to think that you only pretended to be happy where as your real life wasn't like that."

"What made mother suddenly think like that."

"La, don't forget this. You and Aris got married because of an arranged marriage and at that time you also rejected your father's decision that required you to marry Aris. I think you still hate Aris until now-"

"Actually, what do you want to say?" Gabriela interrupted again.

"I think you still hate Aris until now, because Aris's arrival was one of the causes of your relationship with Rendi failing."

"Mom and dad were suspicious because a week after getting married you looked harmonious and fine, whereas we know that you got married in a way that you might think is not good, because you got married because you had to."

Ahhh

So for a while it turned out that her own mother realized that Gabriela and Aris were only pretending to look happy in front of them all.

Then have they also pretended to believe in the intimacy shown by Gabriela and Aris?

what are they doing it for, especially if not to make things look okay?

"It's not that Mom not happy, Mom actually very happy if you can accept each other in such a short time."

"Father and mother are afraid that you will never be able to accept Aris as your husband, La. Because of what? Because father and mother also know that you really loved Rendi at that time."

When her mother mentioned her ex-boyfriend's name, Gabriela immediately turned her head.

One fact that Gabriela only found out when they found out that Gabriela really loved Rendi.

"If mom and dad know I love Rendi, then why do you keep marrying me to Aris?! Don't you want to see me happy, then why do you keep separating me and Rendi. you know that my happiness is to be with Rendi."

"So all this time you haven't been happy living with Aris then the happiness you've shown so far is just fake?"

Gabriela's heart raced when her mother cornered her with a question that Gabriela might not be able to answer.

Sarah smiled, "But all of that isn't true, is it? The fact that you and Aris are planning to give us a grandchild, that means you really love each other, right?"

Gabriela didn't answer, preferring to pay attention to the street in front of her.

his thoughts were far away everywhere.

"Should I tell the truth to mom that all this time I've only pretended to love Aris? But what if mom gets angry and tells dad. You might still be able to understand it, but can daddy?" the woman was busy thinking about something that was going through her head, "Should I tell the truth?"
