Chapter 200 - Genius 200: Caught on the Video
Genius 200:
Entering the room she used from the time she stayed in the orphanage, Danie felt so strange. She remembered the other kids that stayed with her in the orphanage, they didn''t want to enter her room or even sleep in there. They were scared and so as the other nuns. They treated her differently, and its mostly because of her eyes. In the past, she would wear her sses to hide it but there was time she forgot it.
She sat on the edge of her old bed, it creaked a sound. She smiled indifferently, to all the nuns in the orphanage, sister Raya, the nun standing in front of her was the only person in the orphanage that was truly nice to her. The rest were scared but they knew how to use her. Every time a sponsor came, they would dress her good and let her guide them around the orphanage.
It was an orphanage for kids without parents, a lot of people didn''t hesitate to donate money but unfortunately, most of the nuns in this orphanage was just as corrupt as the politicians.
But sister Raya was the kindest and purest nuns in the orphanage. She knew that being a nun was her true calling, that''s why Danie didn''t keep a secret to her. She told everything about her and her family. Raya was the person she could talk that wouldn''t judge her and none of her friends knew Raya not even Robert.
"If you found him, why are you here and not with your family?"
Danie''s lips turned up upon hearing it, shing a beautiful smile yet her eyes were glooming indifferently.
"I -," she found it hard to continue. When ire gave her the first DNA result, she already knew that it was real but she still asked ire to check it again and until now she hasn''t heard anything from her.
When she investigated Danny''s medical history, she found out his allergies. She didn''t want to ept it but he''s her son, real son.
"It was by ident," her eyes wandered around the room, she kept looking everywhere looking for a solution to her situation.
"Are you sure he''s your son?" Raya furrowed her brows and looked deeply at the confused woman in front of her.
Danie nodded, "yes, and I don''t know how to say it to my fiancé."
Raya nodded, she was not even surprised when she said, fiancé. Danie was the most beautiful woman she had ever seen and in her eyes, she will always be that little girl with sses and painful past.
A shaky sigh left Raya''s mouth, she sat next to Danie and held her hands.
"Why are you here Danie?"
Yeah, why? Even Danie was asking that to herself.
Was she so lost and alone that she decided to go to the ce she hated the most?
She gulped hard and met Raya''s eyes. She could see the serenity sparkling in her eyes, she did really love her job even though she was surrounded by people who have different views than her.
"I just..." she was lost of words, "I need to tell this to someone and my fiancé is away I want to tell him this, I want to tell a lot of things to him. Hiding secret from him is eating me out, I can''t..." her shoulder shook as she cried out her pain, "I will tell him everything once hees back but I just really need to tell someone about this."
Raya nodded, her hand lifted to caress Danie''s hair. She always did it in the past every time she saw Danie crying. She hated to see her cry, to see her round beautiful eyes wet with tears. In her opinion, such a beautiful face as she should be smiling and not crying.
"If telling him the truth will make your heart stop hurting, then you should Danie," her voice was calm, soothing Danie''s mind.
"It''s your life, you do what want. If he doesn''t ept or forgive you, then leave. You need to be with someone who will understand and ept you."
Danie nodded, she couldn''t agree more.
"But I made a decision that he wouldn''t like. And I don''t know how to tell him that."
Raya''s eyes gloomed, Danie suffered too much. Before the only thing, she saw in her eyes was anger but right now, it''s pain and confusion.
Gripping Danie''s hands, Raya moved her face closer to her.
"Tell him everything, Danie. Secret and lies are the reason why people get hurt."
Danie bit her lower lips. Her breathing grew shallower by the seconds. Raya was right, Evan will be hurt if she tells him the secret she has been keeping but its better than to keep hiding the truth from him, especially about Danny.
The room became quiet, but soon it was disturbed by the vibrationing from Danie''s phone.
She moved away and took out her phone. Her eyes which were wet and red widened to see the caller ID.
"He''s calling!" she gasped loudly.
Raya giggled and got up, "You should leave. Once you have time, bring your son here. I want to see him."
But Danie didn''t hear a word of what Raya said. She was swallowing constantly and her mind was too focused on the name on her phone.
"Babe!" all the words she prepared to tell him disappeared as she answered the call. He hasn''t called her name but her heart was pounding so much that she was finding it hard to breathe.
She walked towards the door, Raya opened the door and handed her the bags for the shopping she did earlier.
"Danie. I am in front of your apartment."
The serious tone of his voice has made her feet froze, she gulped hard and gripped the bag she was holding. Suddenly her excitement turned into fear. Sharp pain in her chest was making it hard for her to breath. What was he nning to say? She asked herself.
"I will be there soon."
She didn''t wait for his response, she ended the call and rushed out of the orphanage.
She bit her lips nervously, there''s not even one taxi passing by.
"Oh! Here you are!"
Out of nowhere, a man emerged from the car which had a window of the backseat opened.
Danie turned to the source of the voice and found Ken.
While Ken was walking closer to her, Danie''s eyes were focused at the driver seat where a man was sitting.
Before Ken could reach her, she rushed to the driver seat and opened the door.
"Can you move? I am going to drive." Danie asked the driver and pointed the passenger seat with her lips.
The driver was perplexed but he moved by her request.
Meanwhile, Ken scratched his head, he has been chasing her the whole day and now that he found her, she decided to run away again.
"Oh! You are not leaving me here alone shorty!" then he quickly rushed and sat in the backseat. Before he could even close the door, Danie elerated, causing him to lose his bnce and hit his face at the passenger''s seat.
"SHORTY!" he yelled angrily.
He was about to give her a ''you''re dead to me look'' when he noticed her expression through the rearview mirror.
Nibbling her thin lips, round eyes which were glossy and red, her fingers on the steering wheel moving anxiously. Ken realized that something was wrong with her.
So he watched the road as they passed, he was wondering what was she doing in the old orphanage. That ce was so familiar to him. He had so many good memories there but his good life changed after the couple Chu adopted him.
His mind went back to reality when his face hit the passenger seat again. Danie pressed the break so hard, opened the door in rush and left without saying goodbye.
Everything happened so fast, all Ken could do was to blink.
"Do you want to go home boss?" his driver said.
Ken gulped hard and nodded, watching as Danie running towards the entrance.
"Boss she forgot her stuff."
Ken blinked and turned his head to the driver, his eyes followed his finger pointing at the bag on the floor of the driver seat. He suddenly hesitated whether to go after her or not.
Before his mind could decide, his hand stretched to pick up the bags and opened the car door.
He walked slowly, his heart and mind were battling whether to go back or not as he knew that Evan was in her apartment waiting for her toe home.
He halted by the thought. All he needed to do was to take the left turn, take a few steps to reach her apartment.
He took a deep sigh, he was about to turn left when he heard Danie''s voice.
"Is this a prank?"
Hearing that, Ken immediately took out his phone. He pressed the camera button and started to record a video. If Evan was pranking Danie, it will be best to have it on record.
He smiled, he also noticed his recent change of attitude but he didn''t mind. He feltfortable around Danie, that''s why he wanted her around him.
He discreetly focused the lens of his camera towards the apartment and watched them through the screen of his phone.
He bit his lower lips, he could see them standing opposite of each other. Two luggage on the floor next to Evan while Danie was standing like a statue with clenched fists.
"No Danie. It''s over. I am breaking up with you."
