Chapitre 51

Principal Pdv

I was in my office thinking and grieving my wife when my darling daughter's two friends came home, I don't like their attitude war but I kept my cool while talking with them. What can these girls take for women at such a young age, I say internally with a smile.

Me: Speak, I say firmly.

Magui: Marielle is not your daughter, she says without thinking and displays a little winning smile.

At these words, I almost fell out of my chair but not because she had just said because I knew it since I have been sterile since my young age so I knew that Marielle was not my daughter but what surprises me the most is that these girls know about it. How did they do it? Should I guess that my daughter is already aware of this story? If so, how does she take it?

Me: how do you know, I ask calmly.

Jennifer: everyone has their secrets, on that we leave you, Mr. the principal, she says when she leaves the office followed by her friend.

But why do they come to tell me that? Something has surely happened between these two and my daughter, that they are not friends still makes me happy because I have always found that they have a bad influence on her but now that it's starting to know, I have to talk to Marielle. I take out my phone and dial its number.

Phone call.

Me: hello, darling, how are you going to say calmly.

Marielle: are you and Dad?

Me: not too fit right now. Where are you? I have to talk to you, I say, being afraid of her answer in case she already knew it and that she would consider me more like her father.

Marielle: OK, I'm coming home tonight and I'll come and see you, she says calmly but I'm still listening to noise.

Me: it looks like you're having fun. Go to more kisses darling.

Marielle: kisses dad, she said before I hang up. She is as usual, I would even say that she is a little happier. I smile and put my phone down.

Pdv Marielle.

We've finished having a szy dinner at Jozy's house now then we start talking and looking for names for the baby when my phone rings, I look on the screen and it's my father, my face lights up, I always like to see that he's calling me, nothing has changed, he's still my father and knowing him if he told me anything, it's that he had a very specific and particular reason so I picked up to see what he wanted, after informing me of what he expected of me, he hangs up, it's almost eighteen o'clock And my old man will soon come home so I also have to go home to listen to what he has to tell me.

Me: I'm going home friends, I have to go see my father, I say while taking my bag

Mau: I'll drop you off, I also go home with H, she must be tired.

Me: I have my car.

Paul: don't worry, we'll bring you back tomorrow, he says with a smile.

Me: I forgot that you can be nice whenever you want.

Lyno: he's been too drunk lately, he says

Laughing.

Lyna: she looked for him well, let's face it.

Wonder: more than deserved.

Me: come on, I'll leave you gentlemen, ladies and judges, I say laughing.

Gallant as he is, he opens the door to me and then we say goodbye to others before starting. After twenty to twenty-five minutes of driving we finally arrive at home, I get out of the car and say goodbye to Mau who immediately starts his car. I go back to my gigantic house and then immediately go to the living room where I found my father eating fruit as usual so I sit in front of him.

Me: hi dad, how are you? And the day it was I hope.

Dad: yes darling, it's okay. On the other hand, I had unexpected events, your two friends came to my house at the office and tried to seduce me by talking to me openly about a leg party in the air, he says with a smile.

Me: beware of them anyway, I say with a smile.

Dad: I don't know where to start, I have some of the utmost importance to tell you, which could well change our relationship, he says by being stressed.

Me: I already know it, I'm not your biological daughter isn't I asked while knowing the answer.

Dad: Yes, that's it, how did you learn it?

Me: the question must be why you hid it from me and how it happened, I simply say.

Dad: Since I was a child I learned my infertility and I made known my case to your mother before our marriage but she too made me understand that she wanted a child at all costs who will be the flesh of her flesh. So he meets a man whose existence I don't know and then makes him his lover, she quickly gets pregnant with you and brings the pregnancy home, I didn't agree and my ego was flouted but what could I do? So I was silent and didn't talk to him until you came into the world, you were so small, so clean and it's as if I had just been offered a light to illuminate all the darkness that hovered over me, my heart was filled and my whole soul exalted happiness, so with your mother's agreement, you bleed my name and became my son That's how it went, he said with a face whose feelings I can't decipher.

Me: I see. Do you know that my half-brother frequents with us?

Dad: No, I knew after your mother being the woman she is confiscated all the man's property so he doesn't have the means to attend my establishment but recently I learned that all the inheritance was returned to the child and that another part was coming back to you, he simply says.

Me: weren't you in the lock with Mom?

Dad: I wasn't even aware of this story so how could I be in trouble with it and then you know very well that I don't tolerate injustice. If this child is in my high school then I want to see him, I want to offer him something. It's not always good for children your age to stay alone without parents, he says by leafing through a few documents.

Me: it's Nando my half brother.

Dad: the midfielder of the football team?

Me: yes.

Dad: Waoh. Tell him that I would like to see him tomorrow after class. That's all I had to tell you. I now have things to do.

Me: you will always be my father. My only father I say in tears.

My father turns around, makes me smile and comes back to squeeze me against him. What do I feel so protected in his arms?
