Chapter 81: Hidden Agenda

"I was raped... I didn't want any of it to happen, but I can't bring myself to abort the child." Titania sobbed as she said those words. "The baby is innocent. I can't... I don't want to kill a child..." Titania sat on the ground, placing her hands over her face so Randall couldn't see her crying. He was too shocked to approach her as she wept.

He didn't know what to do. He didn't even know how he should feel. He understood the pain Titania was going through, but he wasn't hurt by what he had just learned. Randall looked up at the ceiling, biting his lower lip. His grip tightened on the chair he was leaning against.

"S-Sorry, Randall... I didn't mean for this to happen..." Titania's voice was barely audible. "If you want to curse me now, or if you want to break up with me, I'll accept it-" But she didn't finish her sentence when she felt two arms wrap around her waist.

"Randall..." she whispered, calling out to the man now embracing her.

He hugged her tightly, as if afraid that Titania would disappear in front of him at any moment. He had held her like this earlier too. Both of them were terrified of losing each other. "I-I'll accept..." Randall took a deep breath before burying his face in Titania's neck. "I'll accept the child, Titania."

It felt as if there was a heavy stone lodged in Randall's throat when he said that. He couldn't bear the thought of losing Titania. The things Titania had just shared with him hurt deeply. Each passing second only intensified the pain, especially since he was holding her.

"I'll raise the child and treat them as if they were my own," he stammered, not because he didn't accept the child in Titania's womb, but because he couldn't accept what his girlfriend had gone through when she was away from him. Right now, Randall felt like he wanted to kill someone, but he saw the fear in Titania's eyes. He knew it wouldn't be easy if he chose to go back there.

"I-If you're just doing this out of obligation, y-you don't have to," Titania said as she gripped the hem of his shirt tightly.

He immediately took her hand.

"I love you, Titania." He kissed her on the lips, slow and full of love.

It hurt him deeply, but he would endure that pain for her.
