Fan Series #2; Unpredicted Dreams

51; A Little Bit More

YELIMI

"How are you now, g-grandma?" Jiè asked her, with a tone of being awkward. "Are you in pain, do you need anything, do you want anything?

"Not anymore, Zhubao. I wouldn't wish for anything now that I see you..." she smiled then looked at the two of us, "You're so beautiful, girls, I'm sorry I didn't see the days when you were young..."

"Grandma, we don't have time for that, I need to know something..." I took a deep breath. "Where were you, when you weren't in Zhenyixin's hands?"

"Hiding." she sighed.

"Hiding from where, from who?" jiè asked now staring at him from the side of the bed. "Hiding for what, grandma, why do you have to hide and tell everyone the news that you we're dead, we've been suffering about it and now I'll see you?"

"I hide from the people I owe, from the people I have deceived and twisted in my hands, I'm sorry." Grandma sighed. "I don't think my sorry will take everything I did, to you..."

"So, you're saying you're to blame for everything that happened?" I asked her then looked down from sitting on the sofa. "Grandma, what did you do, and did you have to pretend to be dead? Just to have mercy on you, no grandma, no one took pity on you. What grandpa knows is... you're dead, he suffered for a long time for what you did, why is it necessary you hide all your sins?"

"Because we would all die if I didn't do that, if I continued to show up to people who are angry with me, maybe now your father is gone, he's in the grave and not breathing. I did all that not just for myself but to the people I love! " She shouted so I was even surprised to look at her.

"Grandma, don't startle Yelimi. She is forbidden to stress because her pregnancy is difficult..."

"She's pregnant?" She smiled, "Congratulations—"

"Yelimi, lumabas ka muna..." Jiè ordered so I stood up and was about to walk away when she spoke again, "Tell Ji and Hang to come over here, I need to talk to them. Saka magpahinga ka na, you seem so tired, tell your husband that I ordered him to bring you to your room..."

I nodded and went outside; I was walking downstairs when I heard Hang talking to Ji and Mei. "Honestly, everyone's real culprit is Zhubao's grandmother, she's the one who went around our parents to accompany her in her evil doings. I don't know, but... I guess, it's bad."

"In just a little bit, we can find the whole truth about Zhubao's personality..." I heard Ji say. "I'm not angry or anything if she really hid it, but even I find out maybe everything... I'll love her even more..."

"Love, what are you doing there?" Junhao is the one behind me.

I shook my head, "Nothing, I'll just call Ji and Hang. Jiè Zhubao wants to talk to them..."

JI

"How is Zhubao's grandmother alive, they said she was dead for years?" I asked, I was befuddled.

Maybe this will be a Hurricane...

"I don't know either, Junzhe just told her that, another thing... how does Junzhe know what happened to that old woman?" Hang asked.

"We need to know if Junzhe has a connection to Mr. Li Fei's family or maybe they have a past. Maybe we'll find out about all the truth..." Mei said then shook her head.

I suddenly stared at the emptiness, thinking of something from the past. When I remembered this, Zhubao told me the story of Junhao's grandfather named Junzhe...

Flashback 

"Junhao's grandpa once traveled in the Philippines, his purpose is just to run businesses until he met a woman, she's beautiful as me, he said and my great grandpa suddenly fell in love, so he stayed there for how many years, he confessed, and they had the same feelings. He kept it a secret on his family, because of the Chinese tradition, so his great grandpa decided to propose to the woman, and he made this diamond ring for two months and all of the sudden he was about the say the word and kneel down someone called the one he loved, the worst was, his great grandpa also saw them kissing."

"So, have you known that girl he was preferring of?" I asked. "Did he tell you the name of that woman?"

"No, he didn't..."

End Of Flashback

I was about to stand up then I would have looked for Junhao, but I suddenly met him with Yelimi just right near the stairs. "Oh, Ji, you seem to be in a hurry?" Junhao asked me.

"Junhao, what is the name of your grandfather Junzhe's first love. I need to know that, now, face to face..." I insisted.

"Yvonne, Zhubao's grandmother..." he said softly.

I just sat down on the sofa and then took a deep breath, "That's one of the reasons why our lives are getting messy..."

"What do you mean?" I didn't expect to hear my wife's voice, so I stood up suddenly and swallowed, shit, what's coming out of my mouth. "Babe, what's that?!"

"Your grandmother Yvonne turned Junzhe all around, and that is Junhao's grandfather, she showed motive to the old man and now, Junzhe is messing up our lives, he's taking revenge on your grandmother, babe..." I said calmly.

"Your grandmother cheated on Junzhe, Zhubao, we have to solve that, because we will suffer for the rest of our lives if we don't..." Mei said suddenly.

"We'll make a way..." Junhao said suddenly. "I won't allow grandpa to do that, I know a way to talk to him in depth, can you come with me, Zhubao?"

"I'm coming, Hang. Watch over my sister, and babe, don't follow us, watch over our children, I have a strong feeling that Zhenyixin and I will come and see again..." he said then walked away with Junhao.

"Just a little bit more..." I whispered.
