My Dearest Driver

Chapter 27

Raul POV

I'm taking Ellen today to the baby gear shop. I can not wait for the birth of my child.

"Raul, I want to buy our child's equipment but the color must be pink"

"Why do not we buy blue and pink?"

"Okay, whatever you like"

After I finished buying baby gear, Ellen took me to her apartment.

"I have not been here long"

"Are you exhausted?"

"No, I'm just here to want to make out with you"

"You're so spoiled!"

"But you like it?"

I just smiled and Ellen rested her head on my shoulder.

"Suppose we become a husband and wife would be happier"

I'm just silent without responding to Ellen's words. If Ellen and I do not have a partner, we must be a happy couple.

"Ellen, it looks like I have to go back to the shop."

"Well, tomorrow we meet in my apartment at 11 noon"

"Okay dear, I'm leaving first"

I kissed Ellen's lips. Then I left her. Upon arriving at the tavern, Anne looks angry at me.

"Where have you been ?! I tried to call your phone but it is off!"

"I'm sorry, Anne, my phone is out of battery so I can not reach you"

"You're too much grounded. I'm tired of all your lies!"

"Anne ...."

"Stop! I do not want to hear your explanation! Leave me alone!"

"Okay if that's what you want"

I feel even more guilty about Anne. During this time a lot of lies that I have done to cover up my rottenness. I do not think I can bear this huge load

Ellen POV

When I got home, James looked mad at me.

"Where have you been all day ?!"

"I was out shopping for our child's equipment"

"Then where are you again ?!"

"Why do not you seem to believe me ?! What's my fault for you ?!"

"I do not want to be betrayed for the second time!"

I just kept quiet and went straight into the room without considering James. I feel like I want to be with Raul. Only he can give me peace.

Leon POV

At dinner, I see daddy daydreaming without touching his food. So also with mothers who only play spoons.

I feel that mom and dad are fighting even though they're trying to hide their quarrel from us.

"Dad, mom, why do not you eat?"

Immediately father and mother looked at me. So also with my other brother.

"We just exhausted so no appetite"

" Oh, I see"

Suddenly Jack whispered something in my ear.

"Looks like mom and dad are fighting"

I just nodded and Jack looked sad. I will try to find out about the problems that occur between father and mother.

After dinner I invited Jack to discuss the quarrel between father and mother.

"Jack, I think we should find out about the problems that happened between mom and dad"

"I do not want to see our parents quarrel"

"We'd better follow father tomorrow so we can know about our parents' problems"

"I totally agree with your idea"

"Do not tell Teressa and Gerry, I do not want them to know"

"Okay, I will not tell them"

"Remember Jack, it's just a secret both of us. Nobody should know about our plan to follow the father"

"You just take it easy, I will not divulge it"

I can not wait to follow where father left when mother is in the shop
