Chapter 36 - (Unedited) The Wedding Part 1 (1/2)
Zach reached her room but she wasn't there. The empty closet is open and her bag is still in the corner. He strode to the bed and sat there for a while to wait for her. Ten minutes and five minutes pass, she didn't come back.
He reached his phone and called her but she's not answering. So he keep calling her until she answered it and hung up on him. Life sucks without her.
He exhales and remembered the day he left her. He is following her around making sure that she's fine. She is sent to the hospital and call Ellen, his sister who is nearby. He told her to check on Andy and asked the doctors about the results.
He didn't ask for follow up and just go on with his life that still seemed to be useless. He asked her to marry her then he suddenly left her when she said yes. He lay on the bed and wait for her.
”What are you doing here?” Andromeda enters the room and removed her hoodie jacket and throw it on the corner.
”Andy, let's talk.”
”You want to call off the wedding? I am surprised that it's too early for that.”
”No.” He sat up. He patted the space beside him and she only lean on the corner and wait for him to speak. ”Andy, please.”
”Say it.”
”I'm sorry for not protecting you back then. I am weak… I promise you that at this moment--”
”Shut up!” She cut him off. ”You thought that I would forgive you instantly for breaking those promises? I don't want to hear your promises. I had enough. I'm sorry that I killed our child--” Beads of tears started forming in her eyes. ”I'm sorry that I didn't satisfy you in any way. I'm sorry that I'll never be good enough for you. But please, I beg you. Stop killing me.”
Zach strode fast to her and scoop her face.
”I'm sorry that I am killing you. I didn't mean to.”
”If you are here to sleep with me, then I think that you will be disappointed.”
”I just want to see you.” He kissed her forehead and then her nose.
”I begged you back then to marry me and torture me instead than leaving me. But you never listen.” She smack his chest. ”I might be still alive if you didn't leave me.”
”It's my fault. Okay? Stop blaming yourself.”
Andy cry even more and Zach take her to bed and cuddle with her. But after she's done crying, she pushes him away and told him to leave. He did and she locked the door. She lay on the bed and stare at nowhere. She didn't notice that it's already three in the morning. She just feel asleep.
She woke up when a hand caress her hair and she opened her eyes to see her father.
”You didn't get enough sleep?” He asked. ”I came here instead of your mom.”
”I don't want to see her.” She turned back from him.
”What happened?” He asked.
”She's not my mother.”
”What are you talking about? I understand that you have a misunderstanding with her but, why do you hate her?”
”I am not her ideal daughter. I can't blame her for that. I am not a perfect daughter for both of you.”
