Loving His Baby

Chapter Five

I took a sip of my coffee and took in a deep breath, "Okay...so what is it?" Ren turned his head and looked out the window. "Angie and I have a lot more history than what I told you. The reason why Kristine stopped talking to me was because Angie and I had a baby together." I sat there speechless. I had no idea what to say, Ren did though. "I know it's a lot to take in, but I really like you and we've been talking and seeing each other a lot and I thought if I wanted to ask you to be my girlfriend, you had to know this part of me, of my life. Lea isn't my sister which is what it looks like to everyone, she's my daughter. And she's the most important thing in my life and I wanted to see how you felt before anything more happened," Ren said looking upset and frustrated, not with me, but with himself. I just stared at the table. "Please say something." I coughed to let the scratch in my throat be released, "Well, I'm glad you're being honest. But Ren....that is a lot to take in when we've seen each other for only a couple of weeks. I am not quite sure what to say exactly. I'm shocked honestly. I just really didn't expect that from you...." I said. "I'm sorry Ri, I like you a lot and I really would like to see where this could go. I would like you to formally meet Lea, but I understand if you need time, or if you don't even want to see me again. It's not like we were actually dating. But I would really like to continue seeing you." I took in a deep breath. I know I should walk away. Mom would think this is crazy and that it's insane to be in a relationship with someone who has a child and is only nineteen. But there is something about him that is just wonderful and I can't help but want to be with him. "I would....love to meet Lea," I said. Ren lifted his head and smiled, "Really?! Akari, that makes me so happy. When would you like to meet her, it's all up to you. I'm willing to take this as slow or as fast or whatever as long as you're okay and happy." I couldn't help but smile and feel happy. "How about we meet at the park tlmorrow around 12:30 and I can meet her then?" "Sounds perfect." I could tell how happy he was, I was nervous about meeting Lea, I mean we haven't even established what we were, friends, more than friends, girlfriend and boyfriend, a thing, what are we.

We left our cats at Starbucks and walked downtown. It was a pretty nice dsy for fall, ot wasn't extremely cold out which was nice. We looked at a few shops, but we didn't buy anything.  It was about one when we decided to part ways. "You sure you want to meet Lea tomorrow.?" I nodded,  "I'm sure,  I'll pick up some treats on my way over. "Don't worry Ren" , I said reassuring him. He smiled then kissed my cheek. I couldn't help, but smile.
