Chapter 29: Chapter 29
Lucas
"How did she know you?" I asked Chloe.
"I met them with Leticia before. I am so sorry Lucas." She said with sincerity.
Why did I even lie to her?
I curse her in front of my ex-wife.
Damn me.
She already met Chloe? How?
"Just leave Chloe, I don't want to see you again," I said sternly.
She nodded and said, "I am so sorry Lucas. I hope you guys fix this. "
"Just fucking leave," I growled.
She flinched in fear and headed to the door.
"Trust me Lucas, when I leave here. I won't come back anymore." I remembered Aria said that.
Will she leave?
Will she leave me like Chloe did?
She always said she loves me and I love her too. I am just scared that she will leave me.
After doing all the papers and stuff I needed. It's already 7 pm.
I decided to go home.
What I have done! I slammed my hands to the steering wheel.
_______________
When I entered the door, I loosen my tie and opened the two buttons of my sleeves.
I could hear Luke's cry. No Aria who hugs me when I got home.
"What happened? Where's Aria?" I asked Rosaline abruptly.
I picked up Luke in my arms.
"Shh...baby." I cooed him, shushing him to calm down.
"Mommy... Mo-mmy," He hiccupped.
I looked at Rosaline, waiting for her answer.
"Sr, Aria already left." She said in a whisper.
I froze.
Did she leave?
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN SHE LEFT!" I shouted and Luke flinched in fear.
Fucking hell. I messed up big-time.
"It's true sir, she left with the luggage in her hands," Ana said truthfully.
Their eyes were sad.
No! No! No!
"Are you guys lying to me? I will fucking fire you." I said sternly. I am not playing with them.
They shook their head no.
"DAMN IT." I cursed. I hurriedly gave Luke to Rosaline.
I ran upstairs quickly. I checked our walk-in closet. All of her clothes were gone.
I sat at the edge of the bed. I put my palms into my face.
I was so fucking wrong. The girl I love left because of me.
I reached for my phone and called Leticia.
"Hello?" I said in a tired voice.
"How are you? How the surprise?" She asked suddenly.
"What do you mean surprise?" I asked confused.
"What? Where are you?"
"Home," I whispered.
"Where is Aria?"
"She left. She left me, Leticia." My voice broke.
"Oh my God! What the hell happen LUCAS WIGHTEN!" She shouted over the phone.
"Relax, Leticia you are pregnant," I said softly.
"Fucking relax Lucas? She wouldn't leave if you haven't done anything!" She screamed over the phone.
I put my phone centimeters away from my ears.
I told her calmly what happen all the things that happen earlier and all the things I said to her.
I fucking regret all that. All.
Leticia is right all along.
"YOU ARE SO FUCKING. DAMN IT LUCAS!!!!" She yelled.
"I know I regretted it. What do you mean by surprise?" I asked softly.
"I am not in the place to tell that. " She said hardly.
Now my mind is asking a lot of questions.
"Can you help me bring her back?" I said, begging at her.
I need her... I love her. I just…uggh fucked up.
"I don't know Lucas. It's up to her. You hurt her too much. You already reach her peak." I hang up the phone in defeat.
I wiped my face. I didn't even notice that a tear slipped my eye.
How can I get her back?
I hurt her too much.
I pressed the intercom and told Rosaline to bring Luke up.
I heard Rosaline walked into the room. I picked up Luke in my arms.
"What did Aria said before she left? Will she be back?" I asked hardly.
She stepped backward in fear.
"S…she said to take care of Luke and you and make sure you guys are healthy. We asked her where she will go and she said away from here." She said softly.
I nodded and she left my room.
She even ordered my maids to take care of Luke and me.
I looked at my son; his eyes were so puffy because he cried a lot.
"Mommy...mom..." he said softly, his eyes were so sad and glistening with tears.
"I am so sorry baby, daddy hurt mommy again," I said.
He cried harder and I have no choice just to cooed him.
"I promise, Daddy will bring mommy back. No matter what." I whispered.
I lay Luke and myself on the bed.
My son is hurting because of me.
My son cried because of me.
Leticia is angry because of me.
My wife is hurt fucking much because of me.
Fuck me.
I called Leticia but she is not answering. I needed to know where is Aria.
I called Aria a lot but no answer also.
I pressed Mark's number.
"Mark," I said softly. My eyes were closed while my other hand is soothing Luke's back.
"I already know. Leticia was so upset to you." He informed me.
"I know, can you ask her if Aria is safe or where is she staying?" I asked softly.
"Just a minute."
"Mmm..." I hummed in response.
"Leticia didn't know also but she said, Aria is probably staying at her own house." He said.
She owns a house. Thank God.
"Address?"
"Leticia won't say it. Sorry, Lucas. She told me to remind you, give Aria time, and don't stress Aria." He said, disappointment filled in his voice.
"What do you mean don't stress her?" I asked confused.
"Leticia didn't tell me." I could feel him shrugged.
"Thank you, Mark."
"You can do it. Lucas. If you want her back just do what it takes and accept the consequence. We will go there as soon as possible." I hang up the call.
I hope she is safe. I need to fix things up.
She owns my heart. She is Luke’s mommy. She is my wife.
But the problem is I pushed her away again.
"Mommy...mommy...daddy," Luke said, sadness was evident in his voice.
I gave him a sad smile and hugged him tightly.
I will just give her time to relax and don’t stress her out. Leticia reminded me.
