Loving him is Red✔️

Thirty five

NP: Somewhere Only We Know By Keane

———

Today is the first day of December and everyone is starting decorating lanterns in the streets and Christmas trees.🎄

The breeze outside was so cold and we passed many children in the streets singing Christmas carols.

I remembered when I was like them... every month of December I haven't missed anything just to make money and sometimes they give me foods or gifts.

We had been in the car for five hours and we were near in my parents home.

When we both got out of the car my mother greeted us and she was surprised to see Red beside me.

"I did not expect you to come home.. Mr Architect I'm surprised to see you with my daughter."

My mother was confused .

"Good day Mrs Versoza.."

Red greeted.

"We're actually here cuz we want your blessing."

I said.

"What's the meaning of this Irish?"

Her voice became serious

"We're getting married.."

My mom stunned in a minute she did not expect to her that.

"With this man?"

He pointed Red.

"Yes.. I love him."

My mom was taken aback

"Irish can we talk first privately."

She said but I refused.

"No.. we can talk here."

I said.

"Y-you know.. that I can't.. we can't—-"

Red cut her off

"What's the problem?"

He ask

"I'm sorry Mr Architect but I can't let my daughter marry you—"

She stammered.

"Cuz you were my father's ex?"

My mom shocked.

"I already know how you betrayed my mother.."

Her eyes widened

"Don't you want to see your daughter happy?"

Red ask.

"Mr Architect I want my daughter to be happy but you're not the man I want from her."

She said.

"M-mom.. I will still marry him.."

I seriously said.

"Irish he's a son of ..Emmy who took you away from me—-"

I cut her sentence.

"Did you really care when I was kidnapped?"
—-
"You didn't look for me.. You thought I was already dead."
—-
"You only investigated when I showed up, Only my father who was searching for me anywhere cuz your first love was your priority."

I burst in tears.

"I hated you as my mother and I can't let you take my happiness.."

I said before I turned my back and left her dumbfounded.

Red immediately followed me.

We went upstairs to see my father..

I wiped my tears before I slowly open the door

My dad is awake.. he was reading a newspaper..

"Hey dad.."

I greeted him and he look up and suddenly cry

"I missed you dad.."

I hug him

My dad can't talk properly cuz he had a mild stroke.

"Ayrishh.. wweyy yu herh."

He ask me why am i here.

"I'm getting married.."

I said emotionally.

He look up to Red

"Yes dad he's my groom."

Red took a step closer and greeted him.

"Good day sir I'm Red Javier and I'm going to marry your daughter."

My dad suddenly smiled.

"J-javier."

We're both surprised when Dad mentioned his sure-name properly.

"Tekkher of m-my doughther."

My dad is having a hard time to speak.

"Yes sir I will, you don't have to worry she's safe with me."

Red answer

"Okay dad we will go now, we don't want to stress you out I love you."

I said and I kiss his cheek before we go out.

As we go downstairs I saw my mother is still waiting for us.

"A-are you leaving.. let have some dinner."

She offered.

"No thanks mom, we are going.."

I said.

"Wait..Mr architect I wanna see your parents. Let's have some family dinner by tomorrow. I also want to talk to your mother."

My mom said and Red just nodded.
