She doesn't know what to do and say just to convince the little girl to stay. Lisa needs to go to her hometown to visit her sick mother. however, Sahaya insisted of going with her. Even Caleb can't persuade the little lad, in fact, she was trying to coax Caleb of going with Lisa instead.
"Daddy! Can't we just go with her? don't you want to see her parent's as well?" Sahaya talks like an adult.
"Sahaya, Lisa is going to visit her sick mother. We'll only be a distraction to her."
"No, daddy… I promise I will behave. I just want to go with Lisa. Please…" She pouted. "Besides, this is a good time for you to talk to them!" she grinned meaningfully.
"Sahaya, that's enough!" Caleb reprimanded her. On the other hand, Lisa felt bad to see Sahaya drooped like a lost puppy.
"Don't you think Sahaya is right?" a female voice echoed at the living room. the three turned around at once.
"Aunt Sophie!" Sahaya dolefully run towards the woman and hugged her leg as if searching for a confederate. Sophie stooped down to meet Sahaya's eyes.
"Don't worry, Aunt is here to help you out." she winked at the pitiful child in a soft voice.
"Sophie, what are you doing here?" Caleb seems irritated at her mere presence.
"Nothing. I'm just here to deliver something to my niece when I heard about your conversation. I'm sorry I don't want to meddle but looks like Sahaya has a point. I think it's time for you to meet her parents, brother."
Caleb went silent all of a sudden, then Sophie faced Lisa. "Or are you perhaps afraid that your parents won't accept my brother because he has a kid?"
Lisa jerked. how did Sophie know about her concern? Indeed, her parents are both conservative and their tribes have some sets of rules and standards to follow. They will definitely get the wrong impression about Caleb's situation.
Caleb was able to see beyond Lisa's anxiety and he was not liking where his thoughts and imaginations are going.
"I-It's not like that----'' Lisa paused in a minute.
Caleb can't help it any longer. his curiosity was killing him too. "Is it true?" he faced Lisa. He knew how to read in between the lines so when Sophie uttered something earlier, he kinda understood what she was trying to say.
"C-Caleb… it's not what you think… I…" Lisa was thinking of what to say without hurting his feelings. Sophie was aware of the situation so she invited Sahaya outside to get her present.
"Aunt Sophie, are they fighting because of me?" Sahaya suddenly asked when they were nearing the garage.
"No they're not. There are certain things that adult needs to discuss, but I guarantee you, they are not arguing because of you." she smiled.
"Okay." she was still upset.
"Okay. go on, take your present. It's at the back seat and quickly opened it. go, go!" Sophie was more excited than the little girl.
"What is this aunty?" she curiously asked when she got a hold of it. then she started to unwrapped the gift box. When she was able to view the toy cover, she leaped with joy. It was her favorite limited edition of Barbie collection.
"Thank you Aunt!" she was squeezing it.
"It was your Uncle Hunter who bought it. He asked me to deliver it since he has a business meeting today."
"Can we call him? I want to say thank you!" she pleaded.
"Oh sure, wait." Sophie took her phone and dialed Hunter's number.
Meanwhile, Lisa was thinking on what to say so she won't hurt Caleb's feeling.
"Are you ashamed to introduce me?" Caleb asked one more time.
"Caleb…"
"Just answer me directly Lisa!" he yelped. "What if one day I asked for your hand, do you have the courage to present me to your parents? A man with a child?"
"O-of course…" Lisa cautiously replied.
"Of course what? Are they the deciding factor whether you marry a man or not?"
"Caleb, I have a very conservative parents who upholds tribal traditions." She finally voiced. "And it has been our family's tradition that when a woman decided to settle down, they must ensure that the man is free from any responsibility."
"And?" Caleb was trying to get a direct answer.
"I've witness a lot of called off wedding because the man was a divorcee and the others have children."
"So that means that your parents will go against our relationship once they discover that I have a daughter. Is that right?"
Lisa nodded in agreement. "And they already know. that's why they wanted me to go home so we could discuss about it."
"And you didn't tell me about it?" Caleb was upset. "So I'm guessing that you have already decided to cut our relationship, am I right?"Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.
Lisa looked away and that gave Caleb a tipoff. "So you have already given up without a fight, huh." He smirked excruciatingly.
"I'm sorry Caleb… I'm truly sorry.'' Lisa shed a tear. Caleb turned around, ready to walked away.
"Since you already made a decision then you can go. Forget about saying goodbye to Sahaya if you don't want her to insist tagging along with you. I'll just try to explain everything to her." then he lifelessly walks away.
"Caleb! I'm sorry!" she yelped mournfully.
"I'll just go and inform the driver to drop you off at the airport." Then he left.
Lisa fell on her knees. It pains her so much. But as much as she doesn't want to leave Caleb and Sahaya, her mom's health comes first. It was her fault that her mom got sick to begin with. Informing them about her relationship with Caleb and Sahaya caused her mom's depression to the point that she has to be admitted to the hospital.
Lisa cried her heart out. of all places and people, why was she born into a tribe with lots of rules and regulations to live by? she cursed inside.
A few minutes later, Caleb heard the screeching of the car tires. Lisa already left--- for good.
"Will you be truly okay with that stupid rules and regulations?" Sophie went to sit beside him.
"If she won't even dare to go against them; do you think it'll make sense for me to bend or break the rules? If perhaps, she showed some determination, then maybe, I went with her." he annoyingly uttered.
"You never know what's going on in Lisa's mind either. Who knows it'll suddenly change." Sophie grinned meaningfully. "Anyway, no matter what happened, if you truly love her, don't ever let go without giving a fight." She tapped Caleb's shoulder and went on her way.
"Who's giving up on who?" Caleb whispered softly and smirked meaningfully, as if he has an evil plan in mind. "Just so you wait Lisa." he grinned maliciously.
