The Unpredictable Love

Chapter 71

Freen's pov

Billy, can I ask you something? I said without looking at him as I focus my sight at road. Not because I was enjoying the view but because I am trying to imagine myself as a mother in the future.

Uhm, yes ma'am Freen. Anything, I mean you can ask anything. He said almost stuttering. Trying his best not to look at me as I move to face him.

Focused on the road Billy, I'm not gonna eat you alive. I just want to ask some questions here. Why are you so tense? I said raising my brows.

Im so sorry ma'am Freen. I am just not used to the new you, I mean your coldness and the way you look at me. I feel like its going to be my last day living in this world. He said biting his lips.

Am I really that scary now? I asked furrowing my brows.

Believe me ma'am Freen, you wouldn't like to know. He said trying his best not to look at me.

I know I've change a lot after that day. But I couldn't imagine myself being so cold as ice, or hard as steel. Even P'nam and my mom would say the same. I mean who wouldn't be?

Anyways.. about the question? I said and he nodded.

How is Richie? I mean how did he cope up with all of this thing, you know? I ask him as I sit properly because I can feel my lower back is going to ache.

I know the accident caused a lot of pain to the both of us. Because for me, I lost my wife, my lovely wife. But for Richie, he didn't just lost his mother or his father or his sister. He lost his happiness, his big supporters, his special someone his family.

And I can't imagine the pain that he'd been through yet, he is trying his best not to show me that weak side of him.

Well, you know him ma'am Freen, he is still the Richie you know. He's trying hard to act like he is tough in front of the people. But deep inside he is not. Billy started. That night, he was so excited for his sister too. Well, everyone does. Not until that accident happened. No one can talk to him. He shut everyone, even his own grandparents.  He became short tempered. Like very short tempered. I can tell that you both are the same. He continued shyly.

There are times that when he feels like he can't control his emotions he goes to the hospital and stay there until he feels better again. He said.

Hospital? I said furrowing my brows.

Yes ma'am Freen, hospital to visit his... Billy immediately shut his mouth when he realised that he is already talking too much. He hopes that his boss wont kill him for being so talkative.

Visit who? I asked irretatedly.

Uhm.... the doctor? Yes, his phycologist he always visit there. He answered and I just shooked my head on him. And didn't bothered him at all.

Richie's pov

After Freen left my penthouse earlier I asked Billy to follow her and keep an eye of her. I know in her state right now she's not really in her own self. And I am terrified of the thought that she might do something stupid again.

And I won't forgive myself if anything bad will happen to her. Just like what she did last year that she almost ended her life. I heaved a long sigh.

The guilt is eating me a up. Alive. I really didn't know how to face her if she knew the whole truth. And Im going crazy. Like literally crazy. Gosh, how did I ended up in this mess?
