What is she doing here and why is there a suitcase over there?" Father-in-law saw how clingy his son was towards her, fiddling to hear him speak.
Fedrick moves closer to his dad and made it possible that his glare doesn't fall on her, "I'll tell the truth dad, but can we talk in private?" He says and sews father's eyes to me.
"Urgh! Don't look at me, I ain't going anywhere, it's either you tell us the whole truth or forget about it".
I had this feeling that there was more to Fredricks's behavior than meets the eyes, and I needed to hear the own version of the whole drama going on I backed down and walked away the moment, dad gives me an odd look.
(The door closed, leaving them alone in the room)
"So tell me!!! I am all ears and please be careful not to lie to your father?" (He pulls a step backward and waits for his response)
Fedrick buffed a deep breath, donned a weak smile, said, "actually dad!! Rina isn't just Sophia's best friend, she's my mistress".
A long and disappointing demeanor dropped, father was so dumbfounded by his son's shocking news, he seats on the bed and tries to comprehend the words he just asserted to him.
"Dad!! Are you okay?" Abruptly after seeing the look on his face, he made sure to ask, reinstituting his eyes back to him, "son! Do you know? What killed your mom, my wife?". He inquired from his son, who shoots a sad smile and airs out the story his father made him believe, while he was a kid.
"Yes dad, you told me that mom died after giving birth to me?" He says to him.
Father buffed out a deep breath before proceeding further with his words, "I do believe that it's time to know the truth!! Because your mom didn't die after giving birth to you, she died as an of the bad mistake I made".
(Continues talking)
Fedrick quietly listens to him speak, so he says, " I was like you!! Tall, handsome, with raging hormones as well".
"Your mom was the daughter to my father's best friend and after our alliances fixed, we got married, not because we loved each other, it was for the sake of our families".
"We both lived as together, not as husband and wife but as friends, your mom made sure to fulfill every desire I had, and when I say desire, I meant my goals and dreams in life, she will always try to make out time and help me, even the most littlest thing!! Indeed Riya was a good friend to me".
"As destiny may have it, our tagged friendship turned into love and love turned into a beautiful love story!! Everything seems to be going well for me, but the devil had to interfere by bringing in someone into our lives, "Rose Hill" was the best friend to your mom and when she walked into our lives, everything changed".
"I had no idea what came over me, the rose became my mistress, and somehow Riya heard about it, she vented her anger on us, especially on me, I still remember how bitterly she cried the day the news of my infidelity was exposed".
"The news circulated to our families and the tension kept building up, I had no idea it gradually consumed your mom from within, the pain of my infidelity, got her so depressed, she died by drugging herself to death and, I still can't forgive myself for the sins I committed against your mom".
