Perhaps Love

Chapter 23

"Fran, I told you to resign from here." Dylan commented while we're here inside the bar counter. He's arranging the glasses while I'm counting our petty cash.

I sighed, "I've told you I don't want to lose this job and Mr. Li already allowed me just to stay here inside the counter."

"Even so, the thing is it's really not good for both of you that you're working at night."

"Dy, we're fine okay?" I tap his shoulder and smiled at me.

"Fran? What are you doing here? You shouldn't work late at night!" Suddenly Steven were in front of our bar counter.

"I already scolding at her Steve." Dylan said, I glared at him.

"They're right Fran, you shouldn't working here especially on your condition right now." Carl said he's only behind of Steven.

"Guys, I'm fine okay?"

"We're just worried about you and your baby." Steven said, how he's so sweet. I do wonder why Brenda hates him so much.

Suddenly we heard someone cough, it's Sven. I was taken aback, I just look at him and he look at me as well but with so much anger in his eyes and staring at me coldly.

"If she wants to work here, let her be guys. This is her forte, this is her place." Sven smirked.

"Watch your words bro." Carl warned him and turned to me. "The usual order Fran, thanks." Then he tap Steven's shoulder.

Sven just smirked and walks out first towards to their table.

"Just ignore him Fran." Steven said. "He's just being him."

"Yeah, I'll bet he's still in shocked?" Carl said and followed Sven.

"Just take care of yourself and the baby, okay? Don't mind that bastard!" Steven said like he's so angry at Sven.

"Thank you Steve."

He smiled at me and followed Carl.

I sighed, "The usual order for them Dy, I'll go to washroom for a while."

Dylan nodded, "Are you okay?" he asked.

"I'm fine, I want to use washroom, hehehe you know pregnancy hormones, always wants to pee." I lied.

"Oh, okay."

I walked out from the counter.

Instead on going to the washroom, I go straight towards the fire exit. But before I could open the door, I heard a familiar voice. It's Sven. He's speaking with someone on his phone. I'm about to leave when I heard he mentioned my name.

"Fran? My God Maica! I don't even care about that b****."

I gasped, he really thinks of me like that.

"I don't care Maics! All I care about is you. Us! Don't you understand that? I'm a messed without you! Please come back to me!" I heard him sniffed. Maybe he cried. He really does love her so much.

"I would never do that, I will never ever learn to love her. And please don't push me to her!"

Oh Gosh! Fran walk away. I told to myself. I hold my heart. It's aching, I can't breathe.

"Please Maica, don't you know how hard it is to me? I love you so much and you're pushing me to someone I don't care!"

"It's not my baby! Okay? It will never be mine. I will never ever accept them in my life Maica! I wanted them to be gone!"

I gasped. This is too much. My tears fell down. I heard him cursed and hear his footsteps near to exit door. So I'm about to walk out from there but too late I felt someone stare at my back.

"What are you doing here?"

I didn't look back, "Nothing, I'm about to go to the rooftop to get some fresh air. But I changed my mind."

I hear him chuckled. "Hmmm nice try. Try harder Fran," he said before passing me. But he stop and look at me.

"I guessed you heard everything I said."

I didn't look at him. My face bent down.

He smirked, "no matter what you do, you will never have me."

I smirked and look at him though I know he'll notice the tears on my face I don't care.

"I didn't wish to have you Sven. I didn't wish this things to happen. I never wanted this in my life. What have I done so wrong to you, that you hated me so much?" I asked him. My voice is trembling.

"You ruined my life!" He shout at me.

"I never ruined anything Sven, Did I ever asked you to be responsible to me? Did I told you, marry me because you got me pregnant? Did I ever beg to you to be with you?"

He didn't say anything. He just look at me coldly.

"If you're thinking I ruined your life, how about mine? Did it ever occurred to you that thought?!"

Before he can even say a thing, I passed by at him.

"Don't worry Sven, you'll have your life back." I told him and left him.
