We left for my dad place. As we get closer to the house.
My legs was shaking, I didn't realize I was shaking my legs.
He hold my hand and kiss it . It will be fine babe; am here with you.

We met when I hired Gemma as my private chef. I was like who is this beautiful chef.
So it was like love at first sight said dad.
Yes something like that. Gemma is the most amazing woman, she smart, independent Jake said while holding my hand.
I enjoy her food too.
You really care about my daughter, I just wish her mother was alive.
I stood up and walked out. Elena follows me.
Please forgive my daughter manners.
Gemma and her mother were really close, after she died Gemma has not come home or talk to me in almost two and half years.
I know I made some mistake which I took it out on Gemma.
Sir, am sorry but if I may say this Gemma is hurt by your actions. If you can talk it out with Gemma.
Am sure she will forgive you.
Thank you , I might just take your advice.
Actually sir, the reason I followed Gemma home today was to ask for your permission to marry Gemma.
You seem like a good guy, take care of my Gemma for me.
Does that mean I have your blessings
Yes,am sure Gemma will have prefer you ask her mom than me.
Come let me show you some of Gemma picture.
I was at the garden . I can't believe dad can mention mom when he knows what he did to her because of me.
Gemma , can I talk to you please.
Are you here to mock me for not dating a mayor like you.
No Gemma , I never realized how much I hurt you.
I thought I was playing with my sister. I visited my therapist and she told me I was in the wrong.
So you mean to tell me without your therapist you will not know you are the reason i was self conscious.
Because father love you more, you know even if I reported you . I will be blame for everything.
Gemma am so sorry, I know my sorry can't fix things.
I hope you can forgive me, and we can be real sister and your nephews can meet their aunt
Please Gemma, am begging you as she hold my hand with tears in her eyes.
Why did you do all that did you also think I was not your sister also.
No I was jealous of how close you are mom are, that why I did to be close with dad also.
Even study law just to stay as his favorite.
Looking back now, I should have not done that, I should have just been your sister, cause even with anything you always care about me.
I need to go check on Jake, I left her there.
So sorry babe, hope father didn't say anything to make you feel uncomfortable.
It fine my love , are you alright.
Am fine babe .
My love , I need to get back to the house; I have an urgent meeting to attend to about park Gin.
Okay let go then.
My love, I think you should stay for the night.i will pick you up tomorrow.
No I don't.
I think you guys have alot of things to talk about. Call me if anything happens.
Okay I will.
Bye my love
Bye babe.
He left.
How are you feeling father or should I even called you that.
Since the main reason you hated my gut was because mom cheated on you and you think I wasn't your daughter.
What, where did you get that from.
From mom safety box's ; where I found the DNA test she carried out to find out if I was your daughter.
Did you not asked her for it ; or was it meant to be a secret. You just use me not studying law as an excuse .
Gemma you got it wrong said Elena.
Elena please stay out of this for once.
Father looked confused.
Answer me father.
I never asked your mom for the DNA .
She took without me knowing and show me .
You are my daughter Gemma.
I just wanted my daughter to follow my foot steps , i guess I went about it the wrong way.
You guess, you cut me off when I went to the culinary school.
Gemma you are smart, I thought you were wasting your time . I know you Gemma that why I did that.
Know me; you know nothing about me, you never for once asked me what I wanted; you never spent time with me .
Gemma dad was the one who paid for your tuition in Italy .
No mom did.
Where will mom gets that kinda of money, she was an house wife.
Mom used to work and she had some money, she quit her job cause of dad. Mom paid it
That was for your culinary school said Elena
No am sure mom force dad . to do it. You never spent time with because you thought I was not your daughter.
I felt like an outside.
Gemma am sorry , please forgive me.i was hurt and I shouldn't have done all that to you.
I tried to make it up with you but I always miss out the right time.
Oh my God I can't right now.i ran outside the house.
