22 No secrets (2/2)

They went to study. After Eric shut the door he asked Alice ”Can you tell me who Zengsi is Alice?”

”Well he is your rival! He is past love?”

”Past? I heard they met in China? Does he know shes pregnant... and.... carrying my child?”

”I don't know Eric. Tell me, honestly! Did you really do it?”

”Of course. Why will I admit for something I didn't do.”

”I feel like you are somewhat lying. I feel like... you are just grabbing an opportunity.”

”No way! Do you want me to tell you in complete details what happened? What I did and how I did it? Alice you know me. I will not deny that I love her, and because of that love I'm becoming like this. But if she really doesn't want me... then there is nothing I can do. I'll still support her and our child and just be friends with her.”

Suddenly the door of the study opened. Ji An came in. She heard his last two sentences. ”But if she really doesn't want me then there is nothing I can do. I'll still support her and our child and just be friends with her.”

”Eric, I will give it a try. Lets try to get along. I cannot promise you anything. But I will not deny you the chance of being a father to our child. I'm not saying that I'm agreeing to the marriage nor forgiving you but let us try being a couple first.”

Eric didn't expect that. He was expecting the worst. But he likes it. ”Are you sure?”

”But Ji your belly will become bigger by the time you want to get married.” Alice butt in.

Eric glare at his sister. ”I'm not gonna rush you. Lets take it slow if thats what you want.”

”I want to continue my studies. I want to finish it and be a Psychologist and work at my own Clinic. And of course I will try to understand your line of work too. We should get to know each other deeply and no secrets.” Ji An.

”We will achieve your dreams. I will be here to support you. I'll give you your very own Clinic. And yes I'll take you to the office so you can see what kind of work I'm doing and yes we should know each other with no secrets.” He agreed.

Alice just gave them a look saying 'Hello!!!! I'm still here you know. I'm not invisible!'

”We should go back to our flat and prepare going back to Uni.” Ji An reminded Alice.

”I will visit you whenever I have free time.” Eric.
