HEART MELTS
By: Nicole Jang
Contents
A lot of girls cried their hearts out as one of MEB in Korea,
Kenneth Yin, heir of Wen Rong Group, will finally bid goodbye to his bachelor
days as he will be tying the knot with Nicole Jin, a systems analyst of the
company on Sept 10, 2005.
Kenneth mentioned in one of his rare interviews…that God is so good to him for
He gave him the woman that he will truly love for the rest of his life and
beyond.
This is going to be the Wedding of the Year….Kenneth and Nicole had their
engagement last August 22, 2005. This also marks as Kenneth’s 33rd birthday
celebration.
This is today’s headline that Judith read on the newspaper….
She can’t help not to recall her past.
Judith’s mind reminisce what had happen 14 years ago…..
It was also Kenneth’s 19th birthday party.
Kenneth’s parents gave him a birthday party and all his friends were there.
Except for one, his first love…Judith.
Judith promised him that she will be attending his birthday party. But it was
almost close to midnight and Judith hasn’t showed yet. Kenneth was kind of
worried already.
Kenneth didn’t know that Judith had left Seoul already and will not be
returning in the years to come.
Judith appealed to her parents if they can postpone their flight to the US for
one more day. She wants to be with Kenneth on his birthday and give him her
surprise birthday gift. She was so excited to tell Kenneth that she was
carrying his child.
Judith gave herself to Kenneth 2 months ago when they went to Cheju Islands
during their 2nd year anniversary. She was so excited when she found out about her
pregnancy. She was longing to tell Kenneth her condition but she opted to wait
until his birthday.
Judith was crying and begging her parents, but her parents turned deaf ears to
her request. She left without saying goodbye to Kenneth.
Judith’s parents found out about her relationship with Kenneth and they did not
approve her relationship with Kenneth. Both parties are rivals both in business
and matters of the heart. Judith’s dad courted Kenneth’s mom in their early
teens. But Kenneth’s mom chose Kenneth’s dad over Judith’s dad.
From then on Judith’s dad considered Kenneth’s family as the enemy. So he built
a business similar to Kenneth’s family. And that started their family rivalry.
Kenneth and Judith are both aware of the gap that their families have. They are
not exempted to it.
Kenneth and Judith still fell in love with one another.
They were secretly hiding their relationship for almost two years already.
Kenneth was 17 while Judith was only 16 years old.
Like normal teenagers, their relationship is full of love and dreams. They
dream to build a family of their own someday, once they both finish their
studies…..
California……United States
Judith immediately places an international call to Korea. She wants to explain
to Kenneth why she was not able to attend his birthday party and told him her
condition.
But sad to say, Kenneth didn’t want to speak to her.
She was so sad. She didn’t know what to do.
Months past by ……
Judith never fails to write Kenneth but her letters always returned to her.
Judith was so depressed.
If not because of the baby, Judith wants to kills herself. But she held on …she
wants to live for her child. A child that Kenneth is not aware off.
She was already in her forth month of pregnancy, when her parents found out.
They want it to be aborted. But Judith didn’t agree to what her parents wanted.
She threatened her parents that if they force to abort the baby, she will kill
herself.
Being an only child, her parents gave in to Judith’s request. They let her
carry Kenneth’s child, provided that she will not inform Kenneth about her
condition.
With a heavy heart, Judith agrees to her parent’s condition.
She continued her studies after she gave birth to her child. She gave birth to
a baby girl who looks a lot like her dad.
Judith named her child Jeina who becomes her bundle of joy.
Jeina served as her strength and inspiration in life. Judith was able to finish
her studies and become a successful businesswoman.
Judith heard her daughter’s voice….”Mom, I’m home.”, and she stopped recall her
past…
“Mom why are crying?”
Judith didn’t notice that she was crying already. She just lied to her daughter
and said that she has a headache.
Jeina looks for her dad. “Is dad home already?”
Judith said. “No, he is still in the office.”
Jeina said, “Ah ok…..”
Judith sighed while looking at her daughter and said to herself, “How times
flies, it’s been over 14 years already. Do you still remember me Kenneth? Have
you forgiven me already?”
“If you just knew…there’s no single day that I have forgotten you. Even though
I’m already married, I still long for you.”
“Jeina is the living proof that I can’t forget you.”
“Will you still remember me when we see each other today?”
These are the questions that hang on Judith’s head when her husband, Allan,
arrives.
“Honey I’m home!” She hides her anxiety and forced a smile to greet her
husband.
Allan is a kind man and has all the qualities of a good husband and father.
Allan loves Judith so much and he accepts Judith’s past and loves Jeina as his
own child.
Judith also learned to love Allan, for he is really a kind person inside and
out.
Inside their room, Allan asked Judith if she saw the newspaper.
Judith just nods to her husband…
Then Allan said, “Do you think he has the right to know the truth? It’s been
over 14 years already. Are you not ready to face him again? Are you still in
love with him?”
Judith was so surprised with what Allan had said and saw a sad look in his
eyes. She felt very guilty.
“I’m no longer in love with him, but I’m still afraid to face him. I don’t know
what I will say to him….and Jeina….what do you think would she feel once she
finds out that her real dad is still alive?”
“I don’t want Jeina to be traumatized. I just want to bury the past already.”
“But do you think you can hide and run from your past? If you want to, we could
go back to Korea so you could talk to him.”
“He has the right to know that he has a child. And maybe, we can also test if
the girl he will marry really loves him... Once he finds out the truth.”
“But I don’t want to ruin their forthcoming wedding. I don’t want you and Jeina
to be involved in this scandal.”
“Let’s just leave this thing behind... Don’t worry about me…I’m fine….”
“Mr. Yin, a certain Mr. Kim is here to see you.” Erika,
Kenneth’s secretary told Kenneth over the intercom.
“Let him in.” Kenneth said.
“Mr. Kim? Good morning, have a seat. This is my fiancée Miss Nicole Jin.”
“Good Morning Mr. Yin and Ms. Jin or should I say Mrs. Yin already?”
“Good Morning Mr. Kim, Ms Jin would still be fine. Honey, I’ll be leaving the
two of you. I don’t want to interrupt whatever you two will be talking about.
I’ll just be in my office.”
“Ok… Bye…” Kenneth kisses Nicole on the lips.
Nicole blushed. “Bye….”
“Mr. Kim, What can I do for you?”
“Mr. Yin, does the name Judith Liu ring a bell to you?”
Upon hearing Judith name’s Kenneth paused and said, “Why? What about her?”
“I’m her husband.”
“I see….”
“Mr. Yin…..”
“Call me Kenneth.”
“Ok…then you can call me Allan. Do you know what Kenneth? Judith didn’t know
that I came here in Korea to see you. This is solely my decision to come here
and talk to you.”
“Talk to me? About what? About Judith?”
“Yes it’s about you and Judith.”
“What about us? I don’t have any contact with her since the day she left. If
she is feeling guilty. Well, I’ve already forgiven her. You can tell her that
and I’m inviting you both in my forthcoming wedding.”
“Kenneth, you don’t understand. I came here without Judith’s knowledge. If she
finds it out…”
“Then what do you want?”
“I don’t know if I’m really doing the right thing. Just like what Judith said.
We are all living a normal life. Why should I make it more complicated?”
“Complicate what? Can you be more specific Allan?”
“Ok…I will go direct to the point. Kenneth you and Judith have a child.”
“What? What do you mean I have a child with Judith? That’s impossible. She
never told me that before.”
“Judith planned to tell you her condition on the day of your birthday. She wants
it to be her birthday gift to you. But…”
“It didn’t happen because she ran away from me…..right?”
“No. Judith didn’t run away from you. It was her parents that took Judith away
from you. Judith begged her parents to postpone for a day or two their flight
to the US.”
“Judith’s parents found out her relationship with you. That’s the reason why
they left Korea in a hurry. They wanted to separate you and Judith. Leaving
Korea was the best option they had.”
“But Judith parents didn’t listen to Judith’s pleas. They still left early dawn
of your birthday. Judith was unprepared; she didn’t know they were leaving that
day. That’s why she was not able to attend your birthday and eventually tell
you her condition.”
Allan tells Kenneth about Judith’s suffering…
Kenneth was stunned with what Allan had told him. All these years, even though
he has forgiven Judith the pain still lingers in his mind. He could not forget
it, all this time.
“This…this child of mine…is it a boy or a girl?”
“She is a girl and already 14 years old. A very beautiful and loving teenager.
Here’s her picture.” Allan gave him a picture of Jeina.
Kenneth was surprised when he saw the picture. The girl in the picture looks
like him. “What is her name?”
“Judith named her Jeina.”
“Jeina…..Are they with you now? I mean are they also here in Korea?”
“No, they are in California now.”
“I see….do you and Judith have a child also?”
“Yes, we have. We have 1 boy and 1 girl. The 3 kids get along so well with one
another. They love each other.”
“That’s good to hear. How old are they?”
“My boy is 7 years old already while my youngest is only 3 years old.”
“If your boy is 7, does that mean Jeina was already 7 years when you and Judith
got married?”
“Yes, and Jeina knows I’m not her dad.”
“Does she know who her father is?”
“No. Jeina doesn’t know that her father exists.”
“What did Judith tell her about her father?”
“Don’t worry; Judith didn’t tell Jeina anything bad about you. She just told
Jeina that when she found out that she was pregnant with her, you and Judith
already parted ways.”
“It was too late already to tell you about her condition because you already
left and went back to Korea. That’s the reason she gave Jeina.”
“Do you think if I will see her in person, would she resent me?”
“I don’t think so. She is very intelligent young lady. She will understand.”
“Jeina is never neglected or feel that she doesn’t have a father figure. I love
her as my own daughter. I can’t bear to be away from her. For me, she is my
eldest daughter.”
“Thank you for taking care of her and raising her to be a good daughter.”
“You are welcome. It’s my duty since I’m Judith’s husband. So when are you
planning to see your daughter?”
“I will check my schedule first, as well as Nicole’s schedule before we go to
California.”
“You will tell her? I mean are you not going in California alone?”
“No….I don’t hide anything from Nicole.”
“But do you think she will be hurt? I mean, this is a serious matter. You have
a child with another woman.”
“Don’t underestimate my fiancée. You don’t know her at all. She is one of the
most understanding persons that I’ve ever met. She has a big heart and is very
broad minded. Yes. She maybe hurt because I have a child with Judith whom she
knows was my first love. But I know she will understand.”
“Your revelation won’t affect our wedding next month. By the way, how’s Judith
now? If you don’t mind my inquiry?”
“Oh! it’s okay with me. Judith is fine and doing well. She just opted to stay
at home after she gave birth to our youngest.”
“I see. It’s good to hear she’s OK.”
“Well, Kenneth I think I took so much of your time. I know how busy you are. It
was nice meeting you. Just give my regards to Nicole. You two are a
picture-perfect pair.”
“Thank you too Allan for your honesty and courage to tell me the truth. Leave
me your contact number in California. We might surprise you there.”
“Okay. Here’s our address.”
The two men shake hands. Then Allan leaves Kenneth’s office.
Kenneth was in deep thought. He was looking at the picture of
his daughter.
He didn’t notice that Nicole came into his office. Nicole was looking at him,
wondering what was happening to Kenneth.
“Judith, why you didn’t tell me we had a daughter? How come you didn’t try to
contact me here in Seoul? All these years you kept me away from my own flesh
and blood? As far as, I know I didn’t do anything wrong to you. You just
disappeared on my 19th birthday. I waited for you but you didn’t show up.”
“Do you know how painful it was for me? You promised me you’d be there. Yet,
you stood me up. I felt so bad and devastated that time. I almost wanted to end
my life then.”
And his mind recalls what had happen 14 years ago….
Kenneth leaves his party and goes to Judith’s house.
Upon arriving at Judith’s house, he was wondering why the house was so dark. As
if there’s no one inside. He called out Judith’s name but no answer. Judith
didn’t come out or even open the light in her room.
Someone approached Kenneth and told him that the Liu’s left this morning.
According to that person, the Liu’s migrated to United States and will not be
coming back to Seoul anymore.
Kenneth was so devastated. He’s so mad. He didn’t expect that Judith would
leave him on his birthday.
Kenneth wanted to kill himself.
If not for his parents and friends.
Kenneth will not be able to move on in his life.
Kenneth’s parents were so angry with Judith’s family. They almost ruined
Kenneth’s life. They told Kenneth that Judith is not worth dying for. That he
should have to move on.
Kenneth concentrated in his studies and work.
Kenneth had been traumatized to fall in love again.
Kenneth is such a good looking man. As the saying goes…every woman’s dream.
Many women tried to win his heart but they all failed.
Kenneth can only offer them friendship and nothing more.
Kenneth becomes a very successful businessman. He is not just handsome but also
a very intelligent and hardworking person.
Kenneth’s parents are kind of worried with their son. He is very serious in his
work. He just goes out with his friends but never finds time to look for a
girl.
One night Kenneth’s father talks to him and asks him if he doesn’t have a
serious girlfriend.
Kenneth just replied to his dad, “Women will just break your heart.”
Kenneth’s dad told him, “But not all girls are the same.”
Then Kenneth just simple replied, “Maybe the one for me is yet to come.”
That’s right because the following day at their HR dept.
The HR manager is interviewing Nicole Jin for the position of a System Analyst
in their company.
And this will be the time that Kenneth will change his outlook in life towards
women.
Nicole is so happy because the HR manager tells her that she is hired as the
new System Analyst.
On her way out of the HR manager, Nicole is so happy.
At the very same time Kenneth who was also on his way to HR department.
He notice the woman walking on opposite direction and even greets him 'Good
afternoon' is so happy. Happiness is written all over the face of that woman.
Kenneth acknowledges the greetings and proceeds to HR manager office.
Upon entering the HR manager office he asks the manager who is that woman with
very bright smiles.
Shirley the HR manager says, who Nicole Jin? Well she is your new System
Analyst.
Really! She is my new System Analyst? That’s great…. Kenneth said to himself.
What did you say Kenneth?
Nothing, I didn’t say anything?
I’ll better go now.
Kenneth wait, why did you come to my office? Do you have anything to discuss?
Oh nothing…forget it.
Okay. By the way, Kenneth if you want to see Nicole…you better hurry to go back
to your office. She might be still there.
Kenneth goes back to Shirley’s office…
He asks Shirley, why?
She and Erika are friends. In fact, Erika is the one assured me how good Nicole
is in her work.
How Erika does know Nicole?
Erika and Nicole are childhood friends including Warren. But they lost contact
for 5 years when Nicole’s family moved to London. Nicole and his father just
returned to Korea last month after her mother passed away.
Nicole wants to thank Erika for backing her up. Nicole is so surprised to find
out that Erika and Warren work here too. I tell Nicole that it’s Erika who
tells her to hire Nicole over the other applicant.
Kenneth nods and said to Shirley; you are really a great manager. You made the
right choice. Ok. I’ll better be back to my office.
Kenneth hurriedly left Shirley’s office…
Shirley just shakes her head.
Kenneth sees Nicole already happily chatting with Erika. He smiles
to himself and walks to Erika’s cubicle.
Erika…
Oh! Good Afternoon Sir Kenneth and bows her head. Nicole did the same thing.
Sir Kenneth, this is Nicole Jin your new System Analyst. She is just been hired.
She is my friend and we’d lost contact for almost 5 years.
I see…Kenneth said. Welcome to the WRG Company.
Thank you sir. Erika, I’ll be leaving, just give my regard to Warren. Bye Sir
Kenneth. Sorry if I interrupted Erika’s work.
No it’s ok. You may still stay Ms. Jin. Erika is already indispensable by now.
Both Erika and Nicole say thank you sir and vow their heads.
Kenneth just smiles and said. I have a suggestion, Erika you call Warren and
tell him that we will all go out to have dinner. It’s my treat…
Sir? Erika said in surprise….
Is there anything wrong to what I said? We are going to have dinner to
celebrate the reunion of you three and to welcome Ms. Nicole in our company.
I’ll get my things in my office we will be leaving. By the way, we will use my
car so tell Warren to leave his car here just get it after our dinner.
Kenneth leaves the two women and went to his office.
Erika and Nicole were stunned and speechless. Especially Erika, it’s the first
time that her boss invited them to a dinner.
When Erika recovers from shock, she gives Nicole a naughty smile and call
Warren. She tells what Kenneth says.
Nicole asks Erika why she is smiling….
Erika tells Nicole that for the first time, Kenneth treats and invites them for
a dinner, only now that you’re here. I smell something like L – O – V – E.
Still clueless to what Erika is telling. Nicole asked Erika what’s it all
about.
Erika is about to reply when her phone rings.
Hello! Hi Ma’am Shirley…. Yes, Sir Kenneth is here. Do you want to talk to him?
No no…it’s ok. How about, Ms Nicole? Is she still there also?
Yes ma’am. Why? Do want to talk to her?
No need…. I just want to know if Kenneth were able to meet Nicole face to face.
Why ma’am? Are you also puzzled for Sir Kenneth’s strange action for today?
Sort off? Why?
You know what ma’am? Sir Kenneth just invites us Warren, Nicole and I for a
dinner.
What?
Yes ma’am and we are all going to ride in his car. I’m really puzzled. For the
first time, he did that to us. Do you think it has something to do with Nicole?
Shirley said…what do you think, Erika?
I think it has something to do with my friend.
Me too…
Ma’am Shirley, I have to go now. Warren is already here. And I’m afraid Sir
Kenneth might think I’m gossiping him.
Ok bye…
Bye ma’am.
Nicole is still puzzled to Erika talking in riddles. She is about to question
Erika when Warren arrives…
Nicole is so happy upon seeing Warren. They hug each other and Kenneth comes
out from his office and said everybody ready?
Three just nod and they all leave the office.
Kenneth immediately stands besides Nicole and talk to her. Leaving Warren and
Erika behind.
In the parking lot…
Kenneth opens the passenger seat for Nicole. Nicole can’t do anything but ride
in the front, while Warren and Erika sit in the back seat.
Warren and Erika just smile at each other as their eyes met. They understand
already what they want to say to each other.
It’s Nicole’s first day in office, she is in hurry to leave her
house for she doesn’t want to be late.
Nicole is surprised to see Kenneth’s car in front of their house.
Sir Kenneth good morning and bow her head. What are doing here sir?
Kenneth acknowledges Erika’s greeting and answer her question. I’m here to pick
you up.
Pick me up?
Yes. Is there anything wrong?
But. But... Sir. I think it’s not proper for someone like you pick-up your
newly hired employee?
What’s wrong with that? Come here or you will be late on your first day.
Nicole had no choice but to ride in Kenneth’s car.
At the office…
Kenneth calls an impromptu meeting to all his employees. He introduce Nicole to
everyone as their newly hire System Analyst.
Everyone gives Nicole a warm welcome.
Nicole thanks everyone and gives her ever beautiful smiles and dimples to
everyone.
One of the employees ask, Nicole, if she is already had a boyfriend.
Nicole blushed and when she is about to answer the question…
Kenneth interrupted and put his arm around Nicole’s shoulder and said yes she
is taken already….
Everybody is surprise specially Erika, Warren and Shirley to what Kenneth have
said including Nicole.
Nicole blush her cheeks…..
All guys in the office feels dismay to what had Kenneth said.
Kenneth just gives a smile to Nicole…
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kenneth why are you smiling?
It is only then Kenneth realized that Nicole is in front of him.
Kenneth smiles again to Nicole and kiss her on the lips.
He instructed Nicole to sit on his lap.
Nicole hesitates to sit on his lap thinking somebody might come in to Kenneth
office.
But Kenneth pulls her and she can’t do anything about it.
Kenneth says Nicole that he just remembers the first time he meet her.
The time that he was still a cold heart guy, that it was she who were able to
melt the coldness of his heart because of her sunny smiles and sunny
disposition in life.
Nicole is puzzled to what Kenneth is saying.
Kenneth, are you okay? How’s your talk with Allan? Who’s the teenager on the
picture that looks like you? Nicole asks…
Kenneth looks serious to Nicole and sigh….She is…she is my daughter.
Nicole jumps off Kenneth’s lap and said…what? Your daughter? How did it happen?
How old she?
Hey slow down. I’ll answer your questions one by one.
How can I calm down? You tell me you have a daughter. You better give me a good
reason or I will cancel our wedding.
Oh no! Don’t do that Nicole. I can’t handle if you walk away from me. Please
listen to me….
Jeina is my daughter and she is fourteen years old. I didn’t know that I have a
daughter until this morning, when Allan tells me. Judith is Jeina’s mother
while Allan is Judith’s husband. They live now in California.
Kenneth tells Nicole what Allan had told him including the plan of Judith’s
parent to abort the baby. How Judith fights her parents and her agony.
After hearing Kenneth’s explanation….Nicole is crying.
Kenneth asks Nicole, why are you crying, honey? Do you understand me? Am I
forgiven?
Nicole looks at Kenneth and asks are you still IN-LOVE with Judith? Now that
you find it out that she didn’t really run away from you?
Kenneth smiles at Nicole and kiss her before answering. Jealous? Kenneth cups
Nicole’s face and looks in her eyes and said NO I’m no longer IN-LOVE with
Judith even though I find out the truth. Judith is just part of my past. She is
just part of my happy past. My hearts belongs to only one person and that’s
YOU. To whom I will go to spend the rest of my life and beyond.
Kenneth kissed Nicole passionately for her to feel that he telling the truth
and whisper to her ears I LOVE YOU VERY MUCH.
Nicole smiles at Kenneth and says I LOVE YOU TOO. Nicole asks Kenneth, when are
you planning to visit your daughter, Jeina in California?
We will visit them together honey.
California U.S.A.
Judith is surprised to see who is standing in front of their door. It’s Kenneth
and his fiancée Nicole.
Hi Judith…How are you?
Judith is shocked. All she can say is Kenneth…. there is a question hanging in
her head. How did Kenneth find out?
Aren’t you inviting us in?
Oh yeah, sorry please come in.
By the way, Judith this is Nicole Jin my fiancée.
Hi Judith! Nice meeting you and extended her hands to Judith.
Judith shakes hand with Nicole and said nice meeting you too Nicole. Please
come inside.
In the living room…
Kenneth tells Judith, I guess you know already why we are here?
Judith says, more or less yes. How did you find it out? Who tells you?
Allan tells me everything.
Allan? Judith says in angry voice.
Judith do not get angry to what Allan did. He did the right thing. I guess this
is the right time that you and Kenneth talk, about what really happened 14
years ago. Nicole said to Judith. To give light and shed all the hurt and
guilty feelings that you both hold in your heart for 14 years. Jeina has the
right to know her biological father. You can’t hide it from her forever.
Judith is surprised to what Nicole had said.
Allan on the other hand, also heard what Nicole had said. He was descending
from the stairs when he heard Kenneth and Nicole arrive in their house. He
decides not to show up first to them. That’s why he overheard Nicole.
Allan shakes his head and murmured to himself. How lucky Kenneth to have Nicole
in his side. That Kenneth was right when Kenneth told him how understanding and
broad-minded Nicole is.
Allan decides to come out from where he is hiding. Judith introduces Allan
again to Kenneth and Nicole.
Kenneth and Nicole acknowledge Allan.
Nicole asks Allan if he can accompany her to the washroom. Allan gets the cue
and left Judith and Kenneth in their living room.
````````````````````
When Nicole and Allan left.
Judith says to Kenneth, she is a very nice woman.
I know that’s why I love her so much. I love her more than the love I felt for
you before.
Judith bows her head to hide that she is hurt by what had Kenneth said.
Judith says Kenneth I’m so sorry. I was not that strong enough to fight my
parents. But at least I fight for our daughter. I didn’t allow them to abort
our baby then.
I know Allan told me and I want to thank you for that. But I’m just wondering
how come you didn’t tell me when you are already leaving alone.
I got scared. I don’t know how you will react if you see me again. I know you
are angry with me. You didn’t accept my calls. You return all my letters.
Calls? Letters? What letter? I didn’t receive any single call from you even
letters.
I called you. That’s the first thing I did once we arrived here in California.
But it was your dad who answered me. He told me that you refused to talk to me.
I wanted to explain why I was not able to attend your birthday party and to
tell you my surprise birthday gift. But your father told me that you are so
angry with me and that you don’t want to talk to me.
Then I wrote you letters for almost a month. But all my letters were stamped
return to sender.
It was then I decided to stop communicating with you. I understand your
sentiments then and I know how angry you are to me.
I just continued my life here in California until I already adjusted to
California life. I just devoted my life in my studies and to our daughter. She
became my inspiration in life. She was the reason why I wanted to live more.
Until I met Allan and fell in love with him and eventually we got married. We
led a very normal life until we read in the newspaper your forthcoming wedding
to Nicole.
Allan told me that this is the time that you should know the truth. But I
disagreed with what Allan wanted. I’m afraid to face you. I don’t know what to
say to you.
I didn’t know that Allan didn’t comply with my wishes. That he went to Korea
and meet you and told you everything.
I’m sorry Kenneth. I hope you can forgive me.
I’ve already forgiven you. That was the first thing I did when all the
bitterness and coldness in my heart melted. It’s all because of Nicole.
When I met Nicole, I learned to forgive and see life more clearly now. There’s
no more bitterness and sadness in my heart.
It’s not only you who suffers then. I also suffered. I wanted to kill myself.
If not for my parents and friends, I’m already dead by now.
I thank them because if not with them I already killed myself…I wouldn’t meet
Nicole and be happier.
Judith smiles to what Kenneth had said. She really sees in Kenneth eyes how
much she adores Nicole. She is happy to both of them. She is happy because
Kenneth has forgiven her and they are both happy now.
Where’s our daughter? How will you tell her?
Jeina is still in school but she will be here any minute now.
After a couple of minutes….
They heard Jeina’s voice. Mom, Dad I’m here.
Kenneth and Judith are now joining by Allan and Nicole.
Nicole holds Kenneth hands to give him supports and say that everything will be
al right.
Jeina come in their living room….
Oh! I didn’t know we have visitors. Jeina kisses her parents
cheek and greets their visitors.
Kenneth and Nicole acknowledge Jeina’s greeting.
Judith tells Jeina to sit down.
Jeina sits down besides her parents.
Judith said to Jeina. Baby I know you are a very intelligent young lady. You
know that Mommy and Daddy love you so much. I know you will understand every
thing I will tell you.
Jeina just nods to what her mom said.
Jeina….I want you to meet your real father.
Jeina is surprised to what her mother said. At the same time she looks at
Kenneth.
Dad….
Kenneth extends his arms to Jeina.
Jeina runs to his father.
Father and daughter cries.
This is the first time Nicole sees Kenneth cries. Nicole is crying also, so are
Judith and Allan.
Allan leads the two women to leave father and daughter to have a private talk.
Then Allan excuses himself to the two ladies. Allan told them that he had to
pick-up the other 2 kids in the day care center.
Judith invites Nicole to their garden. Then they talk there about a lot of
things. Particularly of one guy…Kenneth.
Judith and Nicole got along well. Both ladies are very friendly to one another.
They’ve been talking for hours that didn’t notice that it’s dark already.
The two ladies were busy chatting that they don’t even notice that Allan and
Kenneth were at their back already.
They were just interrupted only when they heard Jeina’s voice. Calling them
that dinner is served already.
Both ladies said in chorus…dinner? Oh my God we are carried away so much that
we didn’t notice that time. Judith says….
We think so; because even us you didn’t notice we are standing here already for
a couple minutes already. Kenneth sighs….
Really? Sorry both ladies giggle and walk hand in hand with their respective partners.
While on their way back to the house.
Nicole asks Kenneth, how does it go with Jeina? How do you feel now?
I feel great? It seems a big burden had been lifted from my system.
I’m happy for you honey. Nicole says…
Thanks to you. It’s you that helps me a lot to face everything. I can’t believe
I’m already a father of a 14 years old young lady.
It just means you are old ready.
Hey…you better watch you word madam. I’m not yet old. I will going to prove to
you that next week on our honeymoon.
Really? Next week? How about tonight?
Tonight? Are you sure?
No I’m just only joking.
Well, I’m not taking it as joke. You better be ready.
No way!!!
Kenneth introduces Jeina to Nicole.
Hi Jeina…. Nice meeting you…
Hi! Auntie or Mama Nicole? What do you prefer me calling you? Jeina ask Nicole
with a smile.
Nicole smiles at Jeina and said whatever you prefer to call me.
Jeina says ok…I think will call you Mama Nicole, because I call him Papa
Kenneth.
Jeina and Nicole embrace and hug each other.
After dinner, Kenneth and Nicole says goodbye to the Kim family. For they have
an early flight tomorrow morning.
Kenneth and Nicole invite the Kim family to their wedding next week.
Allan and Judith promise that they will go come.
~~~~~~~~~~
On their way to the hotel, Kenneth teases Nicole. Homey you have a promise;
tonight is the night.
Nicole pouts her lips, I didn’t promise you. I’m just kidding.
But Kenneth says…but I didn’t take it as a joke. Kenneth is smiling while
telling this to Nicole.
Nicole just keeps quiet… After a minute Nicole says ok if that you want.
Anyway, what’s the difference of today and next week?
But when telling this Nicole is so serious.
Kenneth feels guilty and says honey…. don’t be sad I’m just joking with you. I
can wait for one more week.
Nicole smiles to Kenneth and said really?
Of course! I Love you and I respect you.
Kenneth stops the car and kiss Nicole.
When Kenneth release Nicole from his kiss.
Nicole smiles to Kenneth and said I Love you too.
With that they drive their car with contentment to their hotels.
