Chapter 27: Chapter 27

Von POV

A/n: Play I won't go home without you by Maroon 5

I tearfully walked towards the parking lot of Bermuda where the car that Leana and I used to get here was parked.

I feel bad because Lit hid Yezrah from me for several years. She wouldn't even tell me the truth if I hadn't asked her seriously earlier.

After I found out the truth earlier, I left in front of Lit to hide the tears that came from my eyes because of what I found out. I went to the Rooftop of the hotel and poured out all the resentment I felt there.

It took me a few minutes and I wanted to go back to the party but I couldn't, I couldn't see Lit anymore. I don't know why I feel annoyed with myself.

I was about to open the car when someone stopped me. I slowly looked at the face of the one who stopped me and that's when the pain I felt returned.

"Von... Let's talk." She said tearfully. I covered her hand blocking the car door then watched her.

"We have nothing to talk about Lit," I said emphatically and was about to get back into the car when she finished me using her handiwork.

She controls my body.

"Von I want to talk please..."

"Lit we don't have anything to talk about," I said and resisted her effort.

"For Yezrah." She added.

I stopped and laughed.

"You've been hiding my daughter Lit for a long time," I whispered. She shook her head and cried again. I want to strangle myself because I see her crying again and I feel sorry for her.

"I didn't hide her from you, Von." She said that made me laugh.

"So what do you call on what you did Lit? Selfish? What do you call what I did? Lit how many years was that?" My voice broke as I said the last word. I want to blame her for everything. But because I love her, I can't.

"I'm sorry..." She whispered and came to me to hug me, I didn't move from where I was standing. As Lit hugged me, my tears started to flow.

"I'm sorry..." She whispered, what she did was painful for me. Why did she have to keep my daughter away from me for several years? It's impossible that they just came out of Franco's Vampire high. They are all married.

It's like she made me look like I'm not ready to be a father to my child.

I can understand if she doesn't want me anymore and she wants Franco. But to keep my daughter away from me. That's another conversation.

"I'm sorry." She whispered and released from the hug then looked me in the eyes. She held my left hand and kissed it. She touched my cheek and wiped my tears.

"But I only did that because that was the only way I knew to save her." She said while looking into my eyes.

"Lit, how many times have I asked you if you need help... But how many times have you told me no? Now tell me, what is safe to say? It's hard to believe, Lit." I said and stepped back once.

"It's like you made me look like I'm not fit to be the father of our child. It's from me. Why do you have to hide it from me?" My voice trembled as I said those words.

"Not that Von... You don't understand, eh--"

"It's because you don't want to make me understand Lit. You're talking to me like a mess Lit. I want to understand everything Lit but you're the one who doesn't want me to understand." I said and shook my head. She was about to touch me when I moved away from her. I can see the pain in her eyes because of what I did.

"I love you but I also have feelings Lit. I hope you are aware that I am confused and also hurt."

"Even if I explain it to you, Von, you won't understand."

"I'll try to understand Lit because I want us to get along. Let's be together, you'll be mine again. Fuck." I couldn't stop cursing, I was so sick.

"I also want us to be together Von but it's not possible."

"Why? Because you are already married? Because Franco is your husband? Why do you love him Lit?" I asked and wiped my tears. She did not answer my question. I grabbed the car door and opened it.

"If you want us to be together Lit, get in the car and we'll leave together. We'll get away from Franco and start our lives... With Yezrah." I said calmly. I watched her for a few seconds before I entered the car.

Hoping that Lit will ride inside the car. I waited for her for a few minutes to get inside but she only looked out the window before speaking.

"Take care of our daughter Von.... I'll be back when everything is alright." At the same time, she was not in front of me. I was left looking at the window where she looked. I swallowed and once again felt my tears

I didn't even start the car engine before I started driving.

She still chose Franco over her daughter and me. Does she love that man that much to leave her daughter and me and go with that man?

I wiped my tears and laughed.

It's the women. What a mess to talk to.

It took me a few hours before I got home. I can see the light coming from the bottom of the house. They are still awake. What time is it?

I got out of the car and took my greeting card for Yezrah because I passed by a toy store earlier so I had something to greet my daughter.

I walked into the house and there I saw Yezrah playing with Aphrodite.

"Auntie Mommy, try it," Yezrah said and handed Aphrodite a toy glass.

"Hmmm does this taste good?" Aphrodite asked and proceeded to drink from the toy glass. I laughed softly when I saw that Aphrodite also acted as if she tasted something.

"It's delicious, how much?" Aphrodite asked and took out a toy of money. Where did they get that toy? I do not know.

Laughing, Aphrodite turned to me and suddenly stopped when she saw me.

"V-Von you're here." That's why Yezrah looked at me.

"Uncle Von," Yezrah said with a smile and ran to me and then hugged me. I immediately sat down so that we were equal and immediately hugged her.

I was very happy because I hugged my daughter. I feel that all the sadness and resentment that I feel now is gone.

"Uncle Von, let's play with Aunt Mommy," Yezrah said and pulled me closer to Aphrodite.

"W-were playing play house and then what. I said what ugh. I'm her mommy first so why not.. that's why she calls me Aunt Mommy." Aphrodite said nervously and swallowed. I laughed.

"You're Uncle Von, can I be your Daddy?" Yezrah asked me, making me smile.

"Sure baby, why not," I said while looking at her.

"Really? So I'm going to call you Dad, and Aunt Aphrodite will be my Mom. We're family now." She said with a smile and jumped up and down.

I smile because I see my daughter smiling and happy.
