Downhearted

"Uhm ... Auntie," Alice greeted nervously.

"Hm ..." Norita didn't even want to respond to Alice nicely. She kept staring at Luke, making him scared on his own.

Jordi immediately picked up Luke.

"This is my child and my future wife, Mother. So, I don't want to be disturbed. Uhm, Alice ... take Luke outside first. I want to talk to mom."

"Wait!" shouted Norita.

"We need to have a serious talk, Mom. They don't need to hear it," Jordi insisted. "Alice, you take Luke outside first."

Alice nodded and immediately carried Luke out of the tense room.

"Mom, haven't you seen that Luke is indeed my child?"

Norita sat on the chair, her legs weak when she saw Luke. The woman didn't expect that Jordi indeed already had a child with Alice. Luke's face looked too much like Jordi's, so it was impossible for Luke to be the child of another man.

"So, I asked mom not to stop me from marrying Alice," Jordi insisted.
