CHANGE OF FATE
We can all predict a chinese romance drama. But not Diana Abraham and Demetri Anders tale of love.
It all starts with the jealousy, the drugging, the one-night stand, the escaping with pregnancy, and the returning all powerful and unstoppable.
Then, the stranger comes to play dad. Coming to claim his 'blood' and a better shot at life.
Can you predict the script when the roles are reversed?
Characters get mixed up.
And no one follows the script.
.......
e unique features of this stranger.
His long eyelashes, straight nose, his blue eyes, just like Darlene's, his pink lips and tall shoulders, All gave him an effeminate charm.
But one think was unmistakable- his features were like that of Damien's.
Having read a lot of romance drama, everyone understood what was going on.
This was the part where the mysterious lover comes to claim the baby.
"Who let santa in?" Darlene asked quietly.
What? Santa?! His own daughter called him santa.
"Darlene, don't be silly, it's not Christmas. " Diana corrected.
"You can leave", Damien said. No room for objection.
Demetri was quietly observing them.
Darlene was easygoing and unrestrained also very curious. Damien was quiet strict and capable.
"I'm...", Demetri started.
"Santa?" Darlene interrupted.
"..." everyone in the room.
"Your dad."
Pfft! Darlene burst out laughing.
"Don't be silly, I know my mum is very pretty but if we believed every guy that said that, we would have..." Darlene began counting seriously with her beautiful fingers.
"52 dads, each week some guy claims he's our dad", she continued.
"I really am". Demetri was getting a headache.
"Sorry, that line has been used."
"..." According to the script, Aren't the children suppose to secretly yearn for fatherly love but doesn't bring it up in order not to hurt their mum. What went wrong here?
"Even if it was Christmas, i won't wish for a dad." Darlene said.
"Aren't you always bullied for not having one?" Demetri asked.
"Nope, i was once hurt by a boy because I told him that he was disgusting, smelly and stupid. Brother promised to teach me some skills later."
So it was indeed a misunderstanding, Damien thought.
"Kids, he's your real father." Diana intervened.
So in this case, it was the mum hoping the kids would accept a dad. Quite comical.
"We're don't need anyone else mum." Damien finally spoke.
"But..." Diana was cut off.
"Alright, we all know you didn't see the stranger's face clearly. How're you sure he's telling the truth?" Damien was really rational.
"We look alike!" The script wasn't what Demetri had revised.
"7% of people look alike in this world and plastic surgery is available. Who knows you might be the one wearing my face?" Damien queried.
"..." I am really speechless right now. From who did he inherit his debating skills? But I came prepared, DNA TESTS.
Demetri dropped the DNA tests on the table for them to see.
It matches!
"Were this forged?", Darlene asked curiously.
Ah! So she's the annoyingly curious type but how did understand this stuff and how could her mind be so impure to ask such a question?
"In case you're curios too, each of the 'dads' would bring one too."
"..." Now, Demetri felt defeated.
Wait! He still had something, his identity. Why would someone of great importance such as himself go through all that trouble to marry a single mum with two kids?
"Maybe because she's really pretty and rich and so worth it." Darlene answered.
Could she read minds?!
"No, i can't read minds. I am very good at observing body languages. After being defeated countless of times by two children. Most people ask themselves if it's worth it".
Wow! She's good.
"I'm Demetri... "
"Anders?".
Yeah, wait! What?! I'm screwed this time....
Oh no!
