The Day We Meet

Chapter 6

FRANK POV

Joyce and I married quietly and all my family no one knew about my marriage. Joyce forced me to immediately marry her and I granted her request.

"Thank you, you want to marry me. I'm sure our children will be happy to see their parents united"

To be honest, I was forced to marry Joyce. I don't want my child to be abandoned and not have a father. I feel that since I was a child, I often stayed at home when my father went abroad.

Father rarely spends time with me. My parents were too busy taking care of their business so I lacked their love.

Finally, from that moment on, I searched for my own happiness by spending time in a nightclub and changing partners until finally the event I didn't want happened.

I did not expect sooner to have a child at my thirty-third age. I never dreamed of having a child let alone get married.

I accidentally left Joyce alone in the room because I didn't want to sleep with her. I spend time enjoying wine.

I imagined Darcy in my mind. Only she is the one I currently need. I began to contact her and she immediately answered my telephone.

"Darcy, where are you now?"

"I am in the apartment"

"Can I go there?"

Darcy was silent for a while until she answered my question.

" Of course"

"I'm going there now"

I took the car key and i went straight to Darcy's apartment.

DARCY POV

I didn't expect Frank to come to my apartment this late. He looked tired and I told him to rest on the sofa.

"You seem to be exhausted. You'd better rest on the couch"

"Thank you for your attention. Sorry if I bother you"

"I don't feel bothered by your arrival. I should make warm tea for you"

"You don't have to bother."

"I don't feel bothered"

After I made tea, Frank began to tell me about the problem he faced.

"Actually there is something I want to tell you"

"What do you want to tell?"

"Today I married a woman who claimed to be pregnant because of my actions"

I was surprised to hear Frank's confession. It feels like my heart is broken knowing he is married to another woman. I tried to hold back the tears so he wouldn't be suspicious.

"Darcy, why are you silent?"

"I ... I'm fine"

"Are you crying?"

"I ... I'm not crying. My eyes are exposed to dust but it's okay"

"Thank God if it's okay. I'm very confused with what I'm experiencing. I'm not ready to become a father"

"You should be grateful to be a parent. Many out there want a child, but they are very difficult to get it"

"You are indeed a very wise woman. It feels like I am happy to be able to tell you. You are indeed a good listener"

"Excuse me, Mr. Morrow, I want to go to the toilet for a while"

I can't hear his words touch my heart. I can only cry after knowing the fact he married another woman.

FRANK POV

I waited for Darcy in the living room but she didn't come back to see me. Then I looked for her and found her in the kitchen, crying.

I immediately hugged her and she was surprised by my presence.

"Darcy, why are you crying? Tell me"

I wiped the tears on Darcy's face. She looked very sad even though I did not know the cause of her sadness.

"I'm fine. You don't have to worry"

"How can you say that while I see you crying"

"You'd better go back to the apartment. Your wife really needs you"

"Are you okay if I leave?"

"I'm fine. You'd better leave before your wife looks for you"

"Okay if you want. I go first. Thank you for listening to my story."

Frank left me and I couldn't hold back the tears that made me break my heart
