Love Game With The Rebel Billionaire

Chapter 68: To Kill or Be Killed

The silence eloped in between as we hugged each other. Though I know how much she loves me, the pain she unknowingly gave me won't fade easily. "Alright, Mom, get some rest." I stood up and adjusted my clothes. "And always remember this. I love you so much, and I'm really proud of you." Mom smiled, and I reciprocated it as I walked back to the room. At that moment, my smile disappeared. I closed my eyes as I thought about everything. It seemed like my mom was happy with what I said, and it was true. No matter how hard it is to love her, I would still choose her as my mother.

Maybe it's because of her past that we're so close now. It's amazing to think that, despite where I came from, she chose to raise me.

Yet, it's hard for me to accept that at one point in her life, she considered aborting me. I tried to push that thought away earlier while she was telling me her story, but it was one of the things that stood out the most. Hearing your own mother say she didn't want you to be born is like having a gun pointed at your head, and she just pulled the trigger.

I understand why, but that doesn't mean it doesn't hurt.

"It's... painful," I muttered, the pain evident in my tone, and tears quickly flowed from my eyes.

I covered my mouth with both hands as I sat on the floor, trying to stifle my sobs so my mom wouldn't hear me outside.

It felt like I was alone again, with no one to share my feelings with.

But when I saw Ash calling me, I forgot that I wasn't alone anymore.

"H-Hey..." I greeted him, my voice cracking.

"You're crying."

It wasn't a question, but a statement.

"I cried," I admitted, but yes, I was almost done crying when he called. "It would be nonsense to deny it to you anymore. You seem pretty sure about what you said."

I was annoyed because it seemed like I had been crying a lot lately and letting my emotions out. I wasn't like this.
