Chapter 5
I immediately went to Hershey’s house and found her talking to her father.
My heart felt like it was being squeezed while watching Hershey cry. What I hated the most was whenever I saw her crying. I felt like I was being choked and my heart was aching.
“I understand your situation daughter, that’s how the rich are.. Especially since Yuan is a Chinese descent. Arrange Marriage is a trend among them.” I heard Hershey’s Papa say.
“But, Papa. How about it? It’s hard like this. I don’t know what to do anymore.” Hershey started to cry.Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.
“Daughter, don’t cry. I know you and Yuan will get through it all. I believe you can. I raised you to be strong and brave. I know you won’t give up on all the trials. I did everything to make you and your brothers study in a very Good school. I tried to give you a good future. I’m sorry if I didn’t make you graduate from college because I get sick. I remembered before, we wouldn’t be able to study if I didn’t try. I am always patiently walking to sell stewed bananas and corn from our farm. My mother will hide her money every time we ask for our allowance. Then, knowing her. We just walk on a muddy road to get to school. Even if my shoes are broken. I tried to finish my studies. Through God’s mercy, I was able to finish them. I’m sorry, my daughter I can’t do that to you because my body is weak.” he said in a sad voice. Hershey cried because of that. I felt sorry for her. I felt annoyed with my parents because of what she did.
“I’m sorry, Pa. You also got involved with my problem. I wish they didn’t get you involved.” she said in a sad voice. I clenched my fist.
“I understand, don’t worry. I support you and Yuan. I know you can handle all the trials and tests that the Fate gives you. Just trust each other.” her father said. I bowed down. Hershey’s Papa is still good, kind and understanding of the situation. It supports us, unlike my parents. I wish I had parents like that. I want to feel that I am supported till the end.
I remember Cameron, he is a Doctor and Hemodialysis specialist. He can help me without my mom getting in the way. Mom doesn’t cover the Dallas anymore.
“How about that now? Dialysis only prolongs your life. I don’t know what to do anymore. I’m sorry, Papa.” she said again and again. His father held her hand.
“I can’t blame you, you did everything for me and for Yuan. If you have to give me up for your love.. I’m ready to go with the will of the Lord, just get the happiness you’re looking for. I have no wish, My daughter, there is nothing more I can ask for as a parent, I just want you to be happy because I know my body daughter.” Tears kept falling from Tito’s eyes. His voice was hoarse and seemed weak. Dialysis is like that.
“Papa! I’ll finish my studies. You shouldn’t worry about that. I’ll do everything for all your suffering. I’ll help my brother to finish his studies And I’ll take you and mom to travel around the World. You’ll get better, it’ll take a long time. You’ll still be with me I’ll go up on stage to get my Diploma. We’ll eat your favorite foods. And most of all, you’ll reach the time that I own a family.” Hershey said sadly even though she was smiling. I can see the sadness in her beautiful eyes. It was painful to hear their conversation.
“Just promise, you’ll get better, Papa. Even you! You can even beat the buffalo.” she said laughing. His father laughed and shook his head at her daughter’s foolishness.
“Don’t let other people get in the way of what you’ve started. Even if what you’re going through is painful and difficult, I know you’ll get through it together. It hurts more when someone blames you. So don’t ever give up on something you know You can fight. I’m always by your side. No matter what you decide, I’m by your side, daughter.” his Dad said smiling.
I called Cameron to help Hershey’s Papa. He agreed and let me ask them to go. So I came to tell the good news.
“Uncle, I’m sorry if you feel sorry for our problem. By the way, I talked to Cameron. He’s a Hemodialysis specialist and he has his own Clinic Center. There won’t be any problems.” I said. It smiled.
“Thank you very much. It’s good that you’re there. If not, my daughter might cry a lot. Promise me… you won’t give up on her no matter what.” he said hoarsely. I nodded.
“You can count on me. I will never leave her alone and hurt her.. I will do what I can till the end.” I said to him. He smiles at me.
“I can really count on you. Please, can youu take care of my daughter? I don’t know how long I will live. I hope you fulfill what you said.” he huskily said. I nodded.
“Don’t worry. Get better. That’s all you have to think about. Don’t think about the expenses. I’ll take care of it.” I said. Then, he nodded.
I sent Luhan to Cameron’s Dialysis Center. Hershey’s Papa is with her wife. We were left with each other.
She was already crying when it was just only the two of us. I sighed. Then hugged her tightly.
“Don’t cry, you know I love you so much and I don’t want to see you cry.” I said to her.
“I don’t know what I would do without you. It’s good that you managed to get Papa treated.” she said while sobbing.
“Even if you don’t say it, I’ll do it willingly. I won’t leave you. I consider you as a family. Please always remember that. I love you, Han. Don’t leave me.” I said here and kissed her on her forehead.
“Thank you very much. I love you more, I will not leave you. Just don’t give up on me.” she said. So I kissed her torridly on the lips. She smiled in between our kisses.
She hugged me even tighter.
I haven’t been home for a month and I’m staying at my condo. I don’t want to do this to my own parents. But they make excuses for me to stay away.
I woke up early the next day when Mr. Chen is our butler.
It greeted me. “Good morning, Young Master. You need to go home. Your mom is sick, your mom and dad are sending you home.” he said in a serious voice. I shook my head.
“As long as they don’t stop and she doesn’t accept our love. I’m not going home.” I said determinedly.
“Your dad wants to talk to you. Your mom has already agreed, as long as you go home.” she added. I was encouraged by what I heard.
So I decided to go home and talk to them. It is true that they have agreed and they will sponsor with Hershey’s Papa’s dialysis. Finally, mom came to her senses.
“I’m sorry, son, if I was selfish. I thought it was a good decision. I just realized now, you are more important to me. Than the wealth I have. You are my wealth.” she said gently. I smiled and hugged her.
