CHAPTER TWENTY THREE
“Fuck!” I threw away the glass in annoyance. And first, I thought Dylan wanted to mess me. Like my friends, he is also planning to fix Yara and me. I hoped he would do that but hell —- he really likes Yara. I thought he was just making fun of me. What I heard still did not sink into my mind. How could she get pregnant so easily by that idiot? Why as fast as that?
I want to go into Dylan’s unit and fight them both. I want her to get out of there and tell Yara to say I’m the father of her child. Me and not Dylan but fuck! Dylan is right. Yara and I have been together for a long time but I didn’t get her pregnant while they were just a moment away and she got pregnant right away.
I gulped down a bottle of wine and drink one after another. I am just wondering how they make the baby it was like I wanted to get lost. Imagining Yara having sex with another guy makes me want to kill Dylan. What kind of happiness is that idiot doing to her. Did she like it? Is she satisfied? Did she forget me?
I threw the bottle and spread the thing on the table. I kick things that are almost torn apart. I pull my hair and tried to remove the disgusting image that running through my mind. I set on the corner and bowed. Why did she do this to me so quickly? I want her back but how?
“Zeus? What the hell are you doing? What’s happening here?” I looked at Dane who immediately approached me. “What happened to you?”
“Dane, I’m hurt. Why like this?!”
“Stand up and fix yourself.” But I did not listen to her. I just cupped my face while leaning against the wall. “Zeus,”
“I thought Dylan was going to help me get her along. Why did he do this, Dane, why did he get her pregnant?”
“I don’t believe in that idiot so don’t also. Don’t believe what you heard.”
“She’s right, Dane. Yara wanted to get pregnant before but because I didn’t want to, she look for another. Now, she found a man willing to do that to her, she did it. She’s not at a loss because she chose a Dy. Nice choice.”
“I still don’t believe in him.” I straightened up and held Dane by the arm.
“Dane, let’s continue the deal, lets’s see if it will work out.”
“Zeus, enough. Whatever comes to your mind is not ok. I’ll call one of the group to drop you home.” She was just about to hold her cellphone when I pulled her and kissed her. Dane’s lips are the second lips I’ve tasted aside from Yara.
I deepened my kiss and I felt her retaliate as well. I wrapped my hands around her waist and our kiss went even deeper. We both moan in pleasure while not interrupting our kiss. We were both short of breath as we parted and our foreheads were glued together.
“Dane?”
“I’m sorry, Zeus, but I can’t really feel anything. I am imagining Wallace kissing you. He’s the only one.”
“I’m sorry, too.” Then I returned to my seat. Why? I kiss Dane but Yara is on my mind. I feel Dane sit beside me and sighed.
“I hope it’s that easy to turn the love to another, isn’t it? Easy to tell to your heart heart ‘hey, beat to him, beat to her’ we’re all ok and not fell with the wrong person.”
“I don’t know what love means, Dane. I am not sure about my feelings. But, would you forgive me if I will kill your brother so I can take Yara back?”
“Stupid, even if that animal is crazy he is still my brother.”
“I thought he would help me.”
“That’s what I thought too. But, Zeus, I don’t believe that’s Dylan’s son.”
“How can you be sure? Dylan is a man, Dane, the rice is approaching the chicken. Would he reject? Yara is desperate and she has nowhere to go.”
“If you already know Yara and that’s what she is in your eyes. I also know my brother. Dylan is not easy to fall. Remember Celestine? Daze, best friend. She was just a kid when he got it. He was arrogant at that time. But when she found someone to love, he let her go. Because Dylan is the kind of man that a woman loved someone, he will reject it right away.”
“But what if she’s already tempted by Yara? What if Yara insist on herself and said she didn’t want me anymore and she wanted Dylan?” She could not answer. “I’m a man too, Dane. If it was Lyka I would have almost hit her when she came to see me even though she’s married. Only I remember Yara so I rejected her.”
“Zeus, I don’t know what to say.”
“And I don’t know what to do.”
“What the fuck is happening here?!” Jace shouted as he entered my office. “Was there a storm and it just hit inside Zeus’ office?”
“Zeus, are you okay? Dane, are you okay?” Blaze asked.
“Jace, can you take Zeus to his condo first?” Dane asks his permission.
“It’s ok with me.”
“What happened here?” Phoenix also asked.Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
“Ah, maybe it’s because of what Dylan told me that he got Yara pregnant.” I looked at Jace and stared at him. “I’m right?”
“I’m going home alone rather than to come with this ass or I can kill him.”
“Ow, did I say something wrong?”
“Stop it, Jace, your slowness is working again.” Dane threw him a ballpen. “I drop Zeus in his unit, and please call the janitor to clean here.”
“I can, I can drive.”
“No, Zeus, you’re not.”
“I can, Dane. I’m not drunk.” They also did nothing but let me go.
I am in the parking lot when I saw Dylan enter the building. Does that mean Yara is the one in her unit? Instead of going home, I drove to Dylan’s unit. Just a few minutes later I arrived. I rang the doorbell one after another and when it opened, Yara immediately appeared.
“Zeus?”
“Are you really pregnant?” Her eyes widened because of my question.
“H-how did you —”
“Answer me, are you pregnant?” But she did not answer. “Tell me I’m the father of that Yara.”
“Zeus,”
“Tell me I’m the father of that and not Dylan!”
“What are you doing here?!” Dylan pushed me fast. And because I was drinking I lost my balance and I fell to the floor. How did he get here so quickly?
“Yara, tell me that’s my child. That’s my child?!” I shouted then stood up. Dylan looked at me and then looked at Yara.
“Tell him the truth, Yara. Because it looks like that idiot won’t give up easily.” I saw Yara sigh and hold Dylan’s hand. Dylan looked at her with astonishment but immediately straightened up.
“Dylan is the father of my child, Zeus, not you. He got me pregnant because I wanted to have children. So go and you have no rights for me.”
“Yara?” Dylan calls to her.
“That’s not true!” I scream.
“Yes, this is Dylan’s child. Why don’t you believe?! Why are you pushing yourself when you don’t want to have a child?” I wiped my face in annoyance.
“Fuck!” Dylan whispered.
“Why did you just let me get you pregnant? I can’t say no if there is already a child. I’ll accept it.”
“By forced? I’m sorry, Zeus, but this baby of ours we both agreed to make.”
“I don’t believe you. That’s my child, Yara.” I grabbed her hand and pulled. “Let’s go home! Let’s go home with my child!”
“Haven’t you heard me? You don’t want me to get pregnant and now that I’ve gotten someone else you will force me it’s with you? God, what do you think, You’re the only one with semen in the World? I don’t know what happens with you.”
I looked at Dylan who was just staring at the two of us. The animal was still shaking as it looked at me. He seems to be saying that I was desperate to take his child, so Yara just came back. But I don’t care because that’s the truth.
“I’m sorry dude. I’m willing to give up, but she already said it’s really mine. So, just move on.”
“Leave, Zeus. This is Dylan’s baby so don’t bother us.”
“Fuck you, both.”
