First Love's Secret

chapter 17

I came back home safely, it was a tiring trip but just by mere looking at Bea, it all fades away. "How was my lovely angel?" I hugged Bea as she run to approach me, and then I noticed that Mrs. Benson's car was parked in front our home.

I went inside our house, and saw Mrs. Benson sitting on our sofa, impatiently waiting, "May I help you?" I asked looking straight at her nervously; now what does this monster wants? She stood up "I've come here to take full responsibility with my granddaughter." I was caught by surprised, what full responsibility?! What is she thinking that I am not competent enough to take care of my own daughter?! Sometimes, I do really want to slap the bitch out of her.

"You're taking away my daughter from me?" I asked wide eye, then I glanced at Bea who is now fondly playing with Therese her nanny. "Over my dead body" I warned her which gives amusing looks from her eyes. "Don't let me put force on this Carina!" fuck, the monsters getting nastier ever! "And do you think I'll just give her to you?! You are also a mother, how dare you do this." I said with my blood rising up to my head.

She moved at the cabinet and take hold of Jazz' graduation picture, "Yes, I am a grieving mother, who lost his son," then glanced at Jazz' photo then looked back at me "and it was because of you!" she stared her green eyed monster at me, "the only remembrance I have now is Bea, and I will do everything to give her what she truly deserves" what the f*ck! I'm really starting to think about my idea; I think this monster really needs a little slap. She placed the picture back on its place then looked around the house then those green eyes stared at me again, "You're jobless Carina! How can you assure Bea a life she truly deserves, a better home, a feast of food, a safe environment and a better future with me". She was right but, "And how about me?! I am her mother, I have the right to take care of her, you don't-"she stopped me, "have a right? Jesus, Carina, we could fix this, name it! Then you'll get it." She's putting money on my daughter?! How dare she. "Get out" she was surprise "I said get out! And I don't want to see you ever again" I shouted at her pointing the door. "Till our next meeting Carina, and I mean it" then she's gone. I dropped on my knees, hands on my head, so much stress, I can't handle this anymore. The past is haunting me, my biggest fear, I want to have a happy and peaceful life, and that life would on be my daughter. I'm scared; I can't live like these, full of lies! Then I burst out crying at my room, I hugged my knees, if only things didn't came out like this.
