I went to the kitchen again as he went upstairs to his room. 4 maids is standing beside the island, talking with the 2 chefs, when they notice me, they all bowed, but the 2 chefs didn't bow and just passed me a sweet smile.
"Morning to all of you," I said. I return the sweet smile to them.
"The breakfast is already in the breakfast room, Madam," One of the maids said.
"Thank you. Don't call me madam, just Lira or Alex. It's uncomfortable for me hearing someone calling me madam." I chuckled. They seemed amused by my words.
"She's Mr. D's daughter!" The maid whisper to the other one in front of her but I heard it. I smile.
"Dad will come here any minute. Let's have breakfast together, call the others so we can eat already." Their eyes widen at my statement. "Like I said we're family here." I smile before going out of the room. I sigh, I am feeling awkward and shy but the fact that they are also shy makes me the one who boasts my strength of talking to them. I use the power of my bright side which is comforting others to me.
As I said, they all went inside the dining area with Dad. He was shocked but when I stands up and sign the maids to come towards, he knew already what was happening. "Lia and I will go out today so cancel all of my schedules for today or postpone," he said to the man beside him. He nods then dad pats his shoulder.
He was about to leave when dad stops him. "Why don't you eat with us? The table is long and it will feel lonely." I look at him, waiting for his answer. He looks at us before nodding his head. Dad went to me and kiss my forehead. "Morning dad," I said, we never had a proper good morning to each other a while ago.
The breakfast was filled with laugher and jokes by my father. I think I get his bright side and can comfort others. I smile at the thought. The maid is also playful with dad which I think dad is always being playful to them even the bodyguards can smile fully and be playful. It's like we're family here.
"Where do you want to go?" Dad asks, looking at the road. He's driving the car and let his driver rest as this is our day.
"Are you okay with amusement park, dad?" I look at him, warily. He's famous and an amusement park is a public place. People probably can recognize him and we will both be dead.
"Of course," He smiles. I giggles but am also worried. I drag dad to the roller coaster as soon as we entered the place and were done buying our ticket. The guard tells the owner of the amusement park to tell don't bother us when they see us so we can fully enjoy our day together. I laugh and laugh when dad refuses to ride.
After the ride, dad cheers and throws both hands into the air above his head, shouting he wants more. I laugh and we did ride it again. I held dad's hand and raise them as we go down and rise it again when we will go up. I let a laugh and giggles and chuckle while riding the ride.
Our next destination is the pirate boat. We take a rest first after the roller coaster by eating ice cream and roam around the place before going to the pirate boat and ride it. I and Dad went and sit together. As the ride is getting higher and higher, the more I felt like my soul is leaving my body.
"AHHH!!!" I shout, the strong wind slapping my face, forcing me to close my eyes. Dad did nothing bad laugh and shouts. I chuckle. Dad let us buy some food, he gives me a towel and I take it.
"Did you have fun?" Dad asks while opening the water bottle then gives it to me.
"Yes! This is the best day of my life!" I shout, happily. He giggles then extends his hand with the water bottle in it to my front. I take it and finish it in one drink.
"What do you want to ride after this?"
"Carrousel." He laugh then shook his head but we went there. The ride starts while I am here sitting at the ride for two people, dad was sitting in front of me.
Our day went a lot of fun, we ride many rides and eat many foods, we may taste all the food they're selling here. Dad also plays some games for me and wins me dinosaur stuff and also buys me cotton candy. My heart keeps on beating and I knew I was still excited even the sun is slowly setting. I want this not to become an end.
We take our last ride which is the Ferris wheel so we can watch the sun setting and leave us. "If your mom didn't leave maybe we come here often when you're a kid," dad suddenly blurted. I look at him and he's looking at the sun. The color of the sun setting was seen on his face that's letting him looking more handsome.
"May I ask why she leaves us, dad? Is she torturing you?" His eyes landed on me.
"I don't want to complain to you, Lia. I don't want to put dirt on your mom's name, I don't want you to hate her." My heart is throbbing. So it's true? "Your mom and I were also meet because of arranged marriage. I wasn't sure about the marriage because I never had a girlfriend before and then in just a blink of an eye I will have a wife?" I nodded in agreement. "Father forced us to make a child in making us drink alcohol and lock us inside our room for the whole night then everything happened without us knowing. She doesn't like it in the first place, the fact there's something happened between her and me but she's impatient that she wants to abort you but I told her not to. We both fight about having you so I told her I will take care of you and when she delivered you we will file the divorce paper. While waiting for you to come, it has been tough for me, she keeps on hitting me, but it's okay, I know how pregnant woman does." He shrugs his shoulder.
There's a tear left my eyes, "Am- am I an unwanted child, dad? Am I just a mistake?"
"No, no, no, you will never be, Lia... You're my savior, if it wasn't for you, I will never be here. When I cleared my mind then went to your room, I realize my mistake. When I went back to the house where I lend you to this family, their neighbor said they moved but they didn't know where so I went back home, start the search but—" He looks down. "Unfortunately, a car accident happened, I was hospitalized and fall in a coma for a month so the searched stops. Then I continue the search when I went woke up. However, I can't find you, I search you in whole Manhattan but can't find you."
The ride stops and when we both look at the window, the ride already ends. "Forget it already dad, the best right now is we're together again. I'm sorry dad, if they told me I'm just adopted then I would've searched on you too but they didn't. I just found the truth this week.."
He nods his head as we both went outside the ride. "So can I know where you're living now? Or what's your job?"
"I'm living in Madrid heights for now, and my job, I'm a teacher." He smiles.
"Teacher? Your cousin is also a teacher. She will soon take business too."
"Really? I don't know about my relatives yet, hehe." He pats my head as we made our way to the parking lot.
"It's okay. Tomorrow evening, I'll hold a party for you to know other relatives."
To be continued.
