He, the Unacknowledged
86 Self Defense
Inside the room, Gean sat on the edge of the bed. The boy looked at Khea's face.
Cup
Gean dyed both of Khea's cheeks. Khea who felt a touch on her cheek, immediately woke up and smiled to see her son's face. The woman got up and hugged Gean.
"Morning, my prince."
"Morning too, my wonder mom."
Ken eavesdropped on the greetings of the mother and child, which again made him feel envious. The man closed his eyes. If only he had not forgotten the events of that night, maybe now the three of them would have lived happily. Every morning he would get hugs and warm greetings from his son and wife.
What she hated the most, was not because Rissa had made her impregnate Khea, but because she had made her forget that night.
Ken rubbed the corners of his eyes, feeling the pain in his heart.
He wanted to say even remind Gean and Khea that he was not entirely at fault. He is not the one who intentionally forgets all that. If remembering the incident alone was not, how could he admit the child conceived by Khea was his child? Which fool would admit the actions of others?
But would that be considered self-defense? Would that be considered a reason to apologize?
If he remembered, just a little bit, then he would have instantly married Khea right then and there. His anger at that time, perhaps as a form of jealousy that he was not aware of. He who felt envious, envious because of why Khea could be himself, did not care about the words of the people. Jealousy with a different life, making him hostile towards Khea. For this matter, he would not defend himself, because he knew he was wrong and so stupid.
Foolish for lying to yourself, stupid for not wanting to admit feelings and stupid for being too prestige.
Ken doesn't realize that Khea and Gean are in front of him. The mother and son looked at Ken's empty eyes, with wet corners.
"What are you doing standing in front of Gean's bedroom door?"
Khea looked at the man's face, then let out a heavy sigh. How could he forget this man, not because of what Ken had done in the past, but also because his son's face was so similar to Ken's.
Khea then glanced at Gean, wanting to see how his son's expression was now, when he saw Ken.
Turns difficult.
Gean's too flat. Too clever to hide his facial expression.
Khea smiled slightly, and that was when Ken woke up from his daydream. He looked at the smiling Khea when he saw Gean. Khea herself is sure, when Gean grows up, there will be many girls who like him. Because the charm is incredible. That flat expression became the main attraction of Gean. Irit talk, sharp eyes and intelligence possessed.
"Let's have breakfast" said Ken.
On the dining table, Ken has served food very neatly like in a restaurant.
Khea stared at the food, and glanced at Ken. Ken still remembers how Khea always liked this menu at breakfast, and how to arrange it.
There are pieces of fruit with a certain amount in each type.
"Let's have breakfast."
The mother and son sat quietly, but had not touched a single one.
"I didn't poison this food."
