I parked the car and quietly entered. Aunty Mhee opened the door for me and happily led me to the study room. I stood in front of the door for some minutes and decided to knock.
"Come in.... " -- I heard dad's voice and entered hesitantly.
"Freen... Then you remember the way to home?!" -- Dad is mocking and I stood silently.
"Sit. How are you?" -- He sat in his chair and asked me curiously.
"Freen.... Honey... Mhee told me that you came.. How are you Bunny?" -- Mom barged in and almost lifted me up while hugging me so tightly. I couldn't help but giggle at the way she still treats me as a kid. Especially that name. Bunny! I hugged her back and pressed a gentle kiss on her cheek.
"And I don't remember the last time when my only child hugged me or even smiled at me like that." -- Dad commented and Mom glared at him.
"Don't you two get started again. I won't be silent like last time." -- Mom warned both of us.
It's not like me and Dad are always in bad terms. He loves me a lot. I know that. But I just dislike the way he is obsessed about having heir\s. Other than that I love him too. But now I have more important questions to ask. I can't keep it in me for long.
"Did you have dinner? If not, join us today and I won't let you go back tonight Bunny." -- Mom held my hands and said in a warning tone.
"Fine ... I won't go." -- I agreed. I am thinking whether to ask my question now itself or later. But I can't keep myself together for that long. So I faced dad.
"Why did you get the shares of Armstrong Pharmaceuticals dad? I never knew that you were interested in their business." -- I opened the topic.
"You are right dear. I was never interested in their business. But now I have to." -- He said with a serious face and I frowned.
"You know.... Someone who is very close to me is interested in their private business. Which makes it my business." -- He mocked a glare and mom is looking between us.
"Dad... please don't meddle in it. What were you thinking? Why did you do like this?" -- I asked desperately. Confusion is written all over Mom's face.
"I am just making sure that I will have my grand-kid soon.." -- He grinned and I froze on the spot.
So, It's about that again? How does he even know about Becky and me? We don't even know where our relationship stands and he is doing this already?! There is no difference between his and Nop's plan. Use the shares as a weapon. Is that it?
So many questions are running in my mind and tears started forming in my eyes.
Am I going to lose Becky because of this? I know she will be upset. I remember Richie's words. They will just lose the company but won't hurt Becky. I can feel my breath gets caught in my throat and lungs. I've started sweating profusely.
"Why...why did you do that dad? She will hate me now? Bec... Becky will leave me now...... " -- I can feel myself struggling to say anything. My knees dropped and I sat on the floor.
"AROON....." -- Mom thundered. She takes his name only when she is extremely angry.
"STOP YOUR JOKES NOW." -- She yelled and with the help of dad, made me sit on the chair. They sat close to me.
"I didn't know that my Sarocha is this much fragile? So Nam, Noey and Kade are indeed right." -- Dad lifted my chin and looked into my eyes lovingly. He wiped my tears and smiled.
Nam, Noey and Kade? What did they do?
"Don't panic Bunny... Your dad is still a failure in making jokes." -- Mom cupped my cheeks and made me look at her.
"Nam, Noey and Kade visited us two days back. They told us that how you all are looking for an investor for Armstrongs and we asked the details. We heard of Rebecca and felt like we can make up for the mistake last time." -- Mom said.
"They just said that you got smitten by this very lovely girl... and running in search of an investor for putting them out of trouble. Why didn't you tell us Freen? Did you have to struggle when we are here for you?" -- Dad asked me softly and I held his hand.
"So this is not for making her to marry me, just for getting your grand-kids??" -- He laughed loudly by hearing the question.
"Of-course I would love to have my heir as soon as possible. But this is not about that baby. Remember your question to me last time? You asked me whether I do not care for your happiness? I do.... I always do care for that my Sarocha...though I get selfish sometimes. Your friends said that Rebecca is your happiness... that they never saw you this happy and alive anytime before. I just wanted to protect your happiness only.." -- He gently kissed on my forehead. And I smiled with teary eyes.
"But we would really love to meet this BecBec sometime soon..." -- Mom said and I blushed. Seems like my stupid friends had spilled all the tea..including the nickname I planned for my baby.
"So... when will we get to see our future daughter-in-law?" -- Mom teased me.
"Still you fell for another actress my Bunny. What's it with you and actresses?" -- Dad patted my hair and I just gave him a wide smile.

Becky sat looking into her phone screen. The unread messages are making her more grumpy. She has been waiting for Freen to tell her what's been going on and seems like Freen is busy with other works.
She is not even online.
She checked the time once again. 12:35 AM.
She thought what should she do and turned off her phone.
If Freen wants to explain, let her come and explain.
