CHAPTER 10: Perfect Future - The Lings

"What's going on?"

"Am I pregnant?"

"Impossible I drank the abortion medicine".

"Do I have some kind of disease?"

"Why do I feel nauseous?"

Loa thinks rationally in fear while preparing the dining table as Ling wrap her waist with his hands tightly from behind, she smile pretentiously.

"You zoned out again, what's eating you up?" Ling whispers softly as Loa stand upright and face Ling; they stare at each other closely.

"I am fine. What did you prepare today?" she asks smiling as she fondles his cheek jokingly.

"I made butter pie and chocolate coffee" Ling walks to his seat and sits down gently, Loa frown.

"Must you add butter?" she complains sadly.

"But butter is your favorite recipe" he reminds with a smile, Loa laugh it off and take her sit slowly.

"Hey babe!" Kim pegs softly on the cheek of Jon who was focused on the computer screen in front of him.

"How are you?" he asks slyly as his hand move around the keyboard swiftly.

"I am fine" she said with a frown as she takes her seat closer to him.

"Can you stop working and focus on me?" she said sadly and Jon laugh turning off the computer.

"You have got my full attention" he teases and Kim blush happily.

"Did you miss me?" she asks anxiously while massaging Jon's shoulder gently.

"Of course I do but then; since Ling is absent I have to overwork myself" he complains sadly.

"I am here for you" Kim assures still massaging his shoulders.

Ling is dressed in a nice shoe, expensive suit and accessories as his hair glitters on the touch of flash lights, he stretch out his hand as she grip it strongly coming out of the Limousine.

Loa was stunning, she wore a beautiful customized dress made for only her that sparkles in the dark park, her hair so long and black, her lips were small and colored with a deep pink lipstick, she look so beautiful and keeps the passerby and standby dauntlessly speechless.

Ling invited Loa to a ball party and they went as couples, Loa tightly hold unto Ling's arm but before they could walk up to the main entrance door, she strip and fall unconsciously on Ling's chest, everything went black.

Ling stand quietly beside Loa as the doctor carefully checks her pulse and heartbeat, Kim and Jon rush into the room looking impatiently worried and anxious.

"Is she okay?" Kim asks anxiously.

"What happened to her?" Jon asks impulsively but Ling didn't say a word and remain speechless.

The doctor haven a sigh of relief "Is she okay?" Ling question anxiously.

"Mrs. Ling's condition is stable and she is three months pregnant" the doctor said courteously with a small smile.

"Please excuse me" the doctor walks briskly out of the room.

"Pregnant?" Ling asks with a confuse expression.

"How is this possible, bro?" Jon asks Ling in astonishment.

"So you mean, we will soon welcome baby Ling?" Kim teases still surprise.

"What about the abortion medication? Didn't you give her?" Jon asks anxiously and in confusion.

"I did --- I did. Maybe it stopped working" Ling said nervously as he takes his sit close to Loa with a smile, Kim stare in admiration while Jon roam around the room in tense.

3 YEARS LATER

"Will he accept our baby?"

"Have I turned a single mother overnight?"

"How and what will my future with another Ling look like?"

These were the thought of Loa three years ago, she smile as Baby Ling runs toward her chanting;

"Mummy! Mummy!"

Meet Se Hwa nickname Baby Ling, she took the face of her mother but portray the character of her father or should we say she is worse than Ling himself.

Se Hwa is already two (2) years old and attends a private academy owned by Ling, she approach Loa happily as it was closure time.

"How was school today?" Loa carries Se Hwa on her arm gently.

"School was fun mother, I miss you so much" Se Hwa said with a chuckle making Loa to smile in response.

The future was a hectic and smooth one as the world is about to welcome the family of perfection; Mr. Ling, Little Ling and Baby Ling.

"Little baby, it's the B before the C not A, C, C, B" Se Hwa queries Chung, the child of Jon and Kim.

Chung is only a year old and Baby Ling is battling on teaching her English, sounds funny.

"Little baby, say A, B, C" Se Hwa recite with a demonstration.

"A. T, T, B" Chung recites roughly and giggle babyish causing Se Hwa to from, Loa walks in.

"Mother, Chung can't recite the English alphabets. I am tired of teaching a jinx" Se Hwa complains rudely.

"Apologize to Chung right now" Loa snap her out.

"She is just a baby mother" she stumbles angrily.

"Se Hwa!" Loa's expression turns stern.

"I'm sorry baby Chu" she apologizes politely making Chung to hope on the floor in happiness.

"Come here baby" Loa said with an apologetic smile making Se Hwa to run over to her waist with a small smile.

"Baby Chu can't recite the alphabet because she is still small and under growth" Loa caress Se Hwa hair gently as she teaches her a little about kindness.

Mr. Ling automatically changed after the arrival of Baby Ling. He turned his guards and mafia killers into staffs who work as guards for other rich men and get paid monthly, he managed his hotels and companies peacefully, he loved Loa more and Baby Ling was the lady after his heart, he smile more often and advice Baby Ling to the bright side.

As for Loa, Loa Ling: she managed her father's company responsively since he was too old to attend meetings, she inspired more lives around the world through her motivational videos and quotes, she promoted Kim from a mere personal assistant to the vice president of Yon's group, loved Ling more than he could ever imagine and Baby Ling was more like her life.

The family of Lings being: Ling, Loa and Se Hwa and the family of Woos being: Jon, Kim and Chung went on three days vacation on a cruise ship owned by Ling.

The both family had ultimate fun, peace and kept work aside focusing on each other, Se Hwa treated Chung with love and settled on allowing Chung recite just alphabet A.

"No journey starts peacefully".

"There are always a crack, break and scratch".

"You have to pass through them in other to live right".

"Fix your future and don't live in the past".

"Make your future and don't settle on the wrongs".

"Treat your flaws and don't hope on being coax".

(Quote by: Ibiso)

After a while, Ling romantically kiss Loa at the edge of the ship as the sun rays flashes in between them;

"Mother! Father!" Se Hwa approaches them happily as Ling carries her from the ground to his chest.

"Cheers!" they chant "Cheers!" and Loa snaps a perfect picture and posted it on instagram with the caption:

"The Lings"
