My Love Is-A-Bell Male Reader x Isabelle(ACNH)

Misunderstanding

Y/N: "Don't come any closer."

Bill: "Ok,I get it. You're still mad about yesterday. Well,I'm here to talk about that. I can explain everything and it wasn't what it seemed like."

I walked closer to him,Isabelle still standing behind me.

Y/N: "You've got a few minutes. Talk."

Bill: "So... I haven't been a good father."

Y/N: "Tell me something I don't know."

He took a deep breath.

*Flashback(11 years ago)
*Bill's home
*Bill Pov

Bill: "I'm sorry,Sara. We have to raise Y/N"

Sara: "There's no other way?"

I shook my head.

Sara: "Just... don't get into any trouble. Keep in mind,once you get there,you'll be an illegal immigrant. No one can help you."

Bill: "Yes,dear. I'll remember that."

Y/N walked in,holding his toy car.

Y/N: "Daddy,where are you going?"

Bill: "Daddy's going for work,Y/N. I'll be back,I promise."

Y/N: "Pinky promise?"

Bill: "Pinky promise."

I walked out the main door,stress filled in every step. I then travelled to Malaysia. I couldn't earn much there,but even the most measly amount of money meant a lot to me. I soon applied for a construction project that had seemingly fair pay.

Bill: "Hold on,Y/N. I'm coming."

My co-workers and I worked day and night,each step possibly being our last as we worked on the building for 2 months. One day,the boss stopped paying us. He said he wasn't going to anymore if we didn't finish the project in the next 2-3 months. For the next 2 months,we worked out asses off and finally finished the building. But the boss had something else in mind.

Boss: "They're here! Arrest them!"

He called the police on all of us. We couldn't do anything since we didn't have Malaysian IDs or passports. Some of us had worked months,years even just to feed our families. After being released,I was tricked multiple times by the devils hiding behind angel masks,each project lasting 9 months to 2 years. I had been in Malaysia for about 6 years and a half. I finally found an average job working as a waiter in a small restaurant. When I heard about your mother's death,it broke me. I started drinking,a lot. I spent the next 3 years scraping enough money together to go back. I searched everywhere,everyday. Just to finally see you,my son.

*Present time

Bill: "When your girlfriend said I was going to pull her skirt down,I was actually trying to sneak some money into her pocket. Until I realized she didn't have any. So Y/N,will you forgive me?"

Y/N: 'All this time,my father had been trying to do good,but I mistook him.'

I Heald back a small tear.

Y/N: "I forgive you,dad."

We hugged,tears streaming down my father's face.

Bill: "I missed you so much!"
