Oceana glanced at the run down building behind her, her hands clenched subconsciously
She wasn't one to feel emotions
She had trained herself so well she felt nothing for anyone
She prided herself with the fact that her emotions were always under her control and the fact that no one just no one can get under her skin but what changed?
What went wrong? Especially with Yuna who seemed so different
The cats in her arms meowed, drawing her attention back to them
She sighed adjusting her coat
She hurried to grab a cab and leave this place as quickly as she could
Arriving home Oceana was faced with an unfamiliar guest
"Sis…." Lester hesitated as he stared at Oceana who had just arrived, he felt conflicted
Estella tilted her head to face Oceana and at a glance she was amazed at Oceana's beauty. With Oceana's hoodie pulled back showing off her beautiful face she looked so beautiful Estella was short of words. "Leo…..?" Oceana raised a brow feeling a sense of unease seeing this unfamiliar woman
"He's in your room" Lester replied and Oceana walked to the bedroom ignoring everyone in the livingroom. Irene snorted in disdain
"What will we do about Leo?" Estella asked curiously her eyes stared at both Lester and Irene "you both are his parents! What does a kid know!! Are you both so incompetent?" Irene tapped her fingers angrily , she could feel her displeasure building
If that man accepted his grandson she really wouldn't suffer any losses but will benefit greatly "Leo isn't complaint!" Lester sighed, he also wanted his father's recognition which would gain him tons of favor and he won't have to suffer so much. After struggling so much all this years he was ready to do anything to gain his family's favor "he doesn't have a choice!" Irene spoke in finality her determination burned in her eyes as she stared at her Lester and Estella She would never allow this opportunity slip from her
She equally knew Estella's thoughts on the whole issue however it wasn't her business
Everyone stood to gain their own benefits
And she was definitely tired of this life she was living, it was unbearable for her
"It's his decision to make and none of you can force him" Oceana's cold voice rang out and Irene clenched her jaw clearly pissed "do you have any idea what you are saying! He's my son!" Estella yelled and Oceana chuckled lowering her head she glanced at Leo
Luckily they hadn't kidnapped him
She would have searched the ends of the earth just to find him
And she would have never spared them
"Leo…" Lester called softly however Leo hugged Oceana tightly sobbing loudly. "I won't go with them big sis, please don't let them take me " he choked on his tears and Oceana picked him up in her arms
Her heart ached for him
"No one's taking you away" Oceana assured him, her voice devoid of any human warmth "says who!" Irene roared clearly pissed at Oceana's attitude which was hindering their fortune
She loved her grandson
But with so much money what could Leo not achieve?
He would have everything he wanted
"He's staying with me" Oceana replied coldly "he's my son! I'll sue you to court!" Estella yelled angrily "go ahead I ain't stopping you" with that Oceana walked back into her room and shut the door, bolting it behind her before placing Leo one the bed
Irene and the others cursed loudly however she wasn't bothered
Instead she watched Leo
She cleaned his hands, feet and face with a warm towel and fed him the meal she bought on the way back, only when he fell asleep did she turn to her laptop typing away furiously
Her eyes burned with so much anger
Irene!!!! She screamed in her mind suppressing the urge to take drastic actions against them
How could Irene? Wasn't she trying to build her relationship with her children? What changed?
This definitely wasn't the scene she wanted to see at her arrival from a tasking day at work however she couldn't change the outcomes
She could only do her best to protect Leo to the best she could
The next morning Oceana cleared out her things in the early hours of morning and moved out with Leo
She didn't want a direct confrontation just yet but if trouble kept finding her she wasn't going to be nice
She was going to act
She was no fool and definitely wasn't someone's tool
Her fist clenched slightly at her side as she knocked Yuna's door
Getting a train so early was difficult and with the biting cold it was hard for them both
"Who's it?" Yuna's voice came from the inside a low hoarse whisper
It was clear she had just woken up
"It's me" Oceana answered and Yuna pushed the door open a charming smile graced her lips, seeing the scar that ran down Yuna's body Oceana gritted her teeth in suppressed anger
Yuna had gotten this hurt protecting her
From her investigation
Yuna had suffered a lot just for her to live peacefully
Why was Yuna willing to sacrifice so much for her
"Boss…." Yuna ushered them in and shut the door behind her, she also bolted the door behind with several safety harnesses "black coffee" Oceana sighed hugging Leo who was still asleep "alright" Yuna took Leo then she placed him on the bed, tucked him under the faded blanket that had been patched so much it was almost unrecognizable adding to the fact that it had lost its numerous patched colors which made it rather ugly to look at
"Thank you" Oceana sighed accepting the cup of steaming hot coffee Yuna made
Yuna nodded and went about her own things
She wasn't one to probe hence she didn't ask nothing which Oceana was deeply grateful for
She sipped her coffee while watching Yuna intently as Yuna busied herself with her own things
