Chapter 120: Chapter 120

Luna POV

I stared at the food I cooked. The quiet kitchen is odd. I didn’t know how I was going to make the table light because even Athena wasn’t eating and was just playing with the food in front of her. I just watched her and I could do nothing. I'm sure her father is in the cave now, I just hope he's comfortable there with the blanket and pillow I gave him. I still didn't remove the door lock and I saw it was dark outside.

From what I heard earlier I didn't know if I could talk to him. He could easily let go of the word abortion. Doesn't he know that those words are sacred? But I'm not angry with what he said ... I'm mad with myself.

I was relieved that he was ready to abort Jessica's child. I know that Athen and I could be the reason and— we may not be. I looked outside again and saw with my own eyes how the waves hit. Perhaps, neither my parents nor God could forgive me for what I was thinking.

"Aren't you done eating Athens?" I was now looking at Athen and she didn't even move in her place. I don’t know how I can tame her. Earlier she was looking for her daddy. Athen got too close to her daddy and I had no idea how to tell her the reasons if one day Adonis suddenly disappeared from us.

It's selfish to be called but ...

Like others. This is all I know how to love.

"Mommy, let's get daddy." She can't look at me while she's saying that. She was probably afraid of what I might say.

"We will."

That's all I could say because I also don't know what else to say about what Adonis said earlier. I have no comment about that because I feel different emotions. But if what Jessica said was true that Adonis was the father of the child she is carrying, I have no way to accept that thing.

We were able to do that without Adonis, I'm sure we wouldn't change if he disappeared—we will keep moving. Maybe he has become a big part of our lives again but that is not a reason for our world to stop. Jessica’s child deserves to have a dad even if they don’t want what happened. I know Athen also wants a complete family ...

But I can't give that to her when I know I'm stepping on someone else. How can I be happy every day if I am consumed by the conscience that Adonis has another child who also needs the care of a father.

I continued to clear the table when I saw that Athen really had no intention of continuing to eat. After I fixed everything, I could already hear her little sobs. A stone runs through my heart every time I see her like this. She had been orphaned by the love of a father for several years so I could not resent the love of Adonis.

“Okay. Get up there. We will go to your daddy.” I said with hard voice. There is no stain of being excited.

I could see the quick light in her eyes and it was obvious how happy she was. She jumped on the table and climbed up to give me a hug. I couldn’t help but be happy because of what she did. As long as my daughter is here next to me, I have nothing to worry about.

"You need to wear a thick jacket." I put the sweater on Athen’s body as she doesn’t stop jumping. I don't know where she gets her energy. She's been modeling all day, she doesn't seem to feel any tired. If I was in her place, my body might have collapsed.

I also wore my jacket. I carried Athen out the door. As we walked, I saw a shadow. At first, I thought it was just a spy so I tried to approach the man lying down and I recoiled when I saw Adonis lying on the sand while the blanket was lying on the sand. His body was twisted from the cold. Why didn't he sleep in the cave?!

"Wake up!" I kicked his leg so he quickly got up from lying down. He looked around and was obviously alarmed.

"What are you doing there?" My voice irritated and it question to him. He sat up and rubbed his eyes. He just smiled at me but didn't answer. His eyes went to the girl next to me and then Athen ran to hug the man.

“Daddy why don't you eat with us? And why are you sleeping here?” Athen’s voice was full of concern and there was something that caressed my heart. Athen and Adonis has the same attitude. The only difference is, her father is like a mystery box because of the amount of secrets. I have no other choice of words because they are the definition of true empathy. But I don’t know how Adonis was able to abort a child.

"Because I'm doing a challenge, I'm just trying to see if the trend suits me." He was joking but no one even laughed at us. Athen stared at him as if believing what Adonis had said.

"Then, are you finish?" Athen asked back. They seem to have a world of their own and I am the outsider. Adonis looked up at me so I also raised an eyebrow at him..He scratched in his head but I just rolled my eyes.

“Not yet. I still need my challenger's permission if I need to leave here. As long as she doesn't say anything, I will not leave here.” He grinned. What did he think? Am I happy with his smile? I want to twist his neck.

“Don't beg. You can go inside, probably when you get sick it's still my fault. Maybe one of your minions will kill me. ”
