IM.04 BECAME AN ANGEL

VIOLETTA WINSTON

"Adrian, how? Do you like the ice cream?" I asked Adrian Ma who was sitting next to me.

Adrian Ma nodded his head as he replied, "Yes. I like it."

I smiled faintly at Adrian Ma who responded to my question without turning her head towards me. From the beginning I knew and met him two years ago until now, it seems like he never liked me. It was very noticeable when I took care of it since two days ago. He didn't talk to me much, let alone look at me for a long time. But he always answered every question I asked politely. Even my people never said that he behaved badly just once.

It's been a month since I took care of Adrian Ma when he disappeared while swimming at the beach. My people have been taking good care of it for 28 days, while the last 2 days were taken care of by me. At first I didn't like that little boy who was Allura Gibson's son. But seeing him that was getting more and more similar to Albert Ma, made my heart melt. Yes, his face that was very similar to Albert Ma made me slowly love him.

All night long as he was taken care of by me and my people, I kept thinking about what I was going to do to Adrian Ma on this 30th day. I was worried, would I continue to take care of him or should I take him to Albert Ma? I was thinking of taking care of him because of the affection that came after getting to know him more closely. And I had to take him to Albert Ma because it was time for him to return as planned.

Actually, the sudden disappearance of Adrian Ma while swimming on the beach was my plan. This I did solely to separate Albert Ma and Allura Gibson. It may seem cruel, for I have separated a child from his parents for a month. But my love for Albert Ma never faded, forcing me to do this dirty thing. Because I knew that Albert Ma and Allura Gibson loved their son. And Adrian Ma is their weakness, especially for Allura Gibson.

A month ago, I asked someone to kidnap Adrian Ma by pulling him from under the sea. Although I initially felt doubtful in that quite dangerous way, but I had no other choice but to do it for everything to happen as planned. By kidnapping him who was swimming, people must have thought that he drowned while swimming. It would make Albert Ma and Allura Gibson feel so lost that they had a big fight. And luckily my plan went smoothly until the couple separated.

Albert Ma has done various things to find his missing son. But his efforts were fruitless, because his beloved son was with me and my people for the past month. While his wife Allura Gibson who had a big fight with him, had gone somewhere. Albert Ma had also gone to great lengths to find him. To this day, no one can find his wife. It made me who planned all this, feel that the woman who had taken away my happiness would never come back.

Although until now Allura Gibson has not been found, it does not mean I am satisfied with everything that has happened. Unbeknownst to others, I told my men to continue searching for his whereabouts and to make sure that he had completely gone from Albert Ma's life. Because I didn't want him back after Albert Ma fell into my arms. And to take the heart of the man who has never escaped my memory and heart, I will be an angel to him by bringing his son to good health. Isn't my plan brilliant?

"Adrian, do you know where we're going?" I asked Adrian Ma who was enjoying his ice cream.

Adrian Ma shook his head and replied, "No. I don't know."

"At this time we are heading to Bukit Timah, where your parents' residence is located. So today Aunty will take you to meet your parents."

Adrian Ma, who had always looked glum, immediately turned to me excitedly and asked, "Is that true, Aunty?"

I was delighted to hear Adrian Ma calling me 'Aunty' for the first time. With a warm smile I replied, "Yes, that's right."

"Am I going back to see Mommy and Daddy?"

I paused for a moment and replied, "Yes, you're going to meet Daddy."

After I answered Adrian Ma's excited question, I no longer said anything to him. I just sat quietly beside him while continuing to pay attention to the look on his face that looked so happy. Although I am a woman who has not had a family and has not had children, but I can feel that she misses her parents very much. Unfortunately when he gets to his house later, he will not meet the woman he always calls 'Mommy'.

I'm sorry, Adrian. All this I do in order to be in the position that I should occupy, I said deeply.

The distance between my residence and Albert Ma's residence is quite far. Because along the way I was dissolved in my own thinking, the real distance was so close. And without me knowing, the car that I and Adrian Ma were riding in arrived at the entrance gate of Albert Ma's house. When the car we were riding in just stopped in front of Albert Ma's house, the driver said, "Miss, we've arrived."

"Good."

I got out of the car with mixed feelings. At the same time I also felt a heartbeat that was so strong because it was harboring various flavors. And I also kept thinking about how Albert Ma would look after meeting his son later. He must be happy and very grateful to me. For I am the angel who saved his son and delivered him safely before him. Could it be that the way I did this could melt his frozen heart to me? I hope everything goes according to my plan.

ALBERT MA'S

"Cassey, who's coming?"

Cassey, who had just opened the door, turned to look at me. Then he smiled broadly at me and replied, "Master, Adrian is home."

Instantly I got up from my swivel chair with a feeling of shock mixed with happiness. My heart was beating so hard as if I could not believe what I had just heard. I had not yet stepped up and spoke a word, a little boy whom I longed for so much appeared from behind the door. He ran towards me and let out a crisp sound that I hadn't heard for a long time. "Daddy..."

"Adrians..."

Without a second thought I took a step towards him. Then I hugged Adrian Ma so tightly while crouching in the middle of the room as if I didn't want to escape. After a month of losing her, fate finally reunited me with my son. Makes me feel so happy, nowadays it is difficult to say. In my heart I said, Thank God. I finally got to meet my son.

As I hugged Adrian Ma who was in front of me, at the same time tucked a sense of sadness in my heart. The sadness came because I remembered Allura Gibson whom I longed for so much that I never returned home. I was indeed happy to be reunited with my son Adrian Ma who was once lost. But happiness is meaningless without Allura Gibson by my side. Could it be that he who was there also felt the same way as me? Could it be that he would also feel lost when I was not by his side? Or maybe he has forgotten all the promises we both made?

Once when I fell in love with her, I promised myself to always love her and take care of her. When we both have the same feelings, he and I have also promised to be loyal to each other and always together in joy and sorrow. Even the two of us have also promised to live as much as anything that happens. But it seems like all of that is just a memory. Because he just disappeared without any news even though I have searched for him in various ways. Could it be that he was still so angry with me that he didn't want to go back home and see me?

"Dad... Where's Mommy?" Suddenly Adrian Ma asked me while he was still in my arms.

I was stunned for a moment to hear Adrian Ma's question asking where Mommy was. I who until now do not know where Allura Gibson is located also do not know what to answer. If I lied to Adrian Ma, there would be other lies after that. But if I was honest with him and answered like an adult, surely he who was still a child would feel so shocked and devastated because of the departure of Mommy. Stretching my arms from his body, in my heart I replied, You are still too small to know this all Adrian.

Not yet had I responded to Adrian Ma's question which now looked at me with a curious face, Cassey who from earlier stood beside the door of my work room also said, "Sir, there is Miss Violetta here."

I immediately raised my face and looked towards the door. Violetta Winston who had just entered my study smiled warmly at me. With a sense of surprise I said, "Violet?"

"Hey, Albert... Long time no see."

"Yes, we haven't seen each other in a long time. Is there anything I can help you with, Violet?"

"No. I don't need any help right now. I came here just to deliver Adrian."

"Adrians? Did you bring Adrian here?"

Violetta Winston smiled back at me and replied, "Yes, I brought Adrian here. Isn't that right, Adrian?"

Adrian Ma, who was holding my hand while standing beside me, did not respond to Violetta Winston standing before us. But I who was still curious again asked, "How can you bring Adrian here? How can he be with you, Violet?"
