Chapter 15
Kobe's Mother
I stopped brushing my hair here in the large mirror when I heard some knocking on the door.
"Door is open," I answered and the door opened.
"Ma'am, Ellen. Samantha is downstairs, looking for you."
My husband and I were both shocked by what our housemaid Rosa said. My husband and I are just waking up and I'm fixing myself now.
"Why is that woman here?" To my surprise, my husband just shrugged while reading the newspaper. "Please tell me to wait," I answered and Rosa came out.
"What is the purpose of that woman here?" Disgusted, I said softly and tied the rope around my white robe.
I exited and slowly walked down the hallway to the stairs. I was just at the entrance of the stairs when I saw Samantha and suddenly stood up to see me.
"Good morning." It's a polite answer and still smiling.
I gave her a forced smile and motioned for her to sit down again.
"What's the reason you came?" I asked seriously while combing my short hair.
She gives me the envelope she was carrying, which I had just noticed.
"What is this?" I wondered.
"Just open it, I'm sure your day will be happy."
I didn't answer and took what was inside, I quietly looked at this paper and later returned it to her.
"Well, congrats to you," I spoke and stood up.
"Wait, that's all you're going to say? Congrat's?"
I smiled at her because her annoyance was obvious on her face.
"So, what do you want to hear from me, Samantha?" I raised an eyebrow in response.
"I'm pregnant, Kobe is the father of the child I'm carrying. You're going to be a grandmother." It is a bold answer.
I looked at her first and smiled at her.
"Hija, why are you telling me this? Tell Kobe because I'm not responsible for that. But wait, are you sure you're pregnant?" My language is serious.
"What the? Did you see the result, what else is not sure there?" Disgusted answer and raised her voice.
"You know what, Samantha. I'll be honest with you, I don't want you to be my daughter-in-law. But I can't do anything if my son wants you, but I'll tell you only one thing. I don't like all those people who lie." I suppressed the anger I told her and I saw that she seemed to suddenly turn pale.
"What do you mean? I'm not lying. I'm pregnant!" It says so loudly.
"Can you, leave you're ruining my morning. I don't like people who lie! How sure are you pregnant if you can't get pregnant anymore !?" My voice rose because I felt my blood rise as well.
"What !? Where did you get the news that--"
"Get out!" I pushed her away and pushed her to move out of the house.
"Why, what happened?"
I looked up and met my husband questioning eyebrow.
"Early in the morning, I'm in bad mood with that woman who comes here to say she's pregnant. I'm doing a background check on Samantha, so how can she get pregnant if she has a problem with the uterus?" I replied annoyed and my husband just smiled.
"Let her go, don't ruin your morning with her. Just make our coffee, then call Camilla or your child to say hello to them."
I just nodded and I went to the kitchen to brew coffee because since then we haven’t brewed coffee with the housemaid. I’m the one doing it until now. After I brewed I took it outside near the swimming pool.
"Hon, you're not going to office?" I asked as I sat next to my wife.
"I'll come in later. My knee hurts. You know we're getting older. That's why I hope your son will think of handling our business." He said seriously while sipping coffee.
"Let that happen too. Let's give our son a little more time." I answered but my husband did not speak.
I suddenly remembered to call Camilla, well and my husband had already brought my cellphone. I called Camilla's number a few times but no one answered and neither did Kobe.
"What are these kids, why don't they answer their cellphones?" I speak.
"Just call later, maybe she's still asleep." Answer it.
I put the cellphone down on the table and thought about what my husband said. Since we saw on the CCTV that the two looked ok, I secretly installed the CCTV in the house we provided and the monitors were here with us. I’m happy because it looks like Kobe is going to be serious with the girl.
He is twenty -four so I know he is not tired of his youth. But he has been reprimanding since he was young, he also doesn't want to touch the business we have established for a long time. I gasped at the thought.
I sipped my coffee and was shocked to see Camilla coming here with us.
"It's you, Camilla. Why didn't you say you were coming here?" Smiling I stood up and immediately kissed her on the cheek.
"I'm sorry, good morning to you." She greeted us and wished the two of us well.
"Aren't you with your husband?" My husband asked Camilla.
It didn’t answer and I noticed that he seemed quiet. I motioned for her to sit down but she shook.
"I won't be long, I came here to say goodbye." It's a polite language.
"Wait, is there a problem? Then where are you going why are you saying goodbye?" I asked confused.
"I'm leaving." She nodded in response.
"Did you fight with Kobe? Was Samantha the reason? Don't get me wrong ---"
"This is what I want I hope you can understand me, but I thank you for accepting me." Its tongue is red.
I looked at my husband and he did not answer.
"Are you sure Camilla? But where are you going?" Sadly I asked her.
"I don't know where I'm going, but I want to live alone again." She said tearfully and wiped away the tears that were about to drip.
I hugged her immediately because I felt what she was feeling and I caressed her back.
"I'm the one who apologizes for my son, his life has no direction yet. But if this is your plan, I understand." I said crying too.
"Ellen, give her money so she can somehow use it." My husband said.
I nodded and wiped away my tears.
"No, I'm fine," Camilla replied.
"No, just wait for me and accept it," I spoke and hurried inside and went up to my room with my husband.
I took the money and put it in a white envelope, after that I went down immediately and went there. Arriving there I immediately took Camilla's hand and placed the envelope in her palm.
"Always be careful, you know our house. If you need anything we're just here." I told her and fixed her hair.
"T-thank you, thank you very much." Crying in gratitude and saying goodbye.
I was no longer able to drink my coffee because I had lost my appetite.
"What are you thinking now?"
I looked up and met my husband's questioning eye.
"I know it doesn't end here, maybe let's let them go first because if they love each other. They'll look for each other. I'll talk to your son too, I'll go to him now." I said seriously and my husband just nodded.
-------------
My car is already in front of the gate waiting for the guards to open the gate. It immediately opened and the two greeted me.
"Is my son there?" I asked them.
"Yes ma'am." One answered and I entered the car inside.
I hurried downstairs and walked inside, I immediately smelled the smell of alcohol inside. I caught up with my son in the living room and laid his foot on the table while a bottle was being poured.
"Is that all you're going to do? Where's your wife?" I asked him but he did not answer and I could see on his face that he was crying.
I removed the ones scattered on the floor and the couch, he had already drunk a lot because the empty beers were scattered.
"She's gone."
"Who?" I asked and looked at him seriously.
"Who? Camilla isn't your favorite. She and Nicko are going to be stupid!" Anger or jealousy can be seen on its face.
"Yeah? You're going to let Camilla leave you. But you're right it's more appropriate that maybe they're Nicko because you're not responsible." I answered and stood up.
"Tssk !?" It says angrily.
"Kobe, it's your fault. I don't know what you're arguing about but I can tell you're weak. Do you love Camilla?" I asked him, he couldn't answer he just bent down and shook his head.
"If you love her show her, fix yourself. Be responsible and face the problems that will come. Drinking is not the only solution if you ask me where Camilla is. I don't know and if I know at all I won't tell you either, fix it yourself first. And if you want to see her again, you have to make a way to see her. " I gave him a long explanation.
"I love her ... I love her and I miss her, I'm really weak."
I was stunned and I smiled secretly because even though he wasn’t looking at me when he said he loved Camilla, I knew he was telling the truth.
"In that case, fix yourself. Show that you are worthy of her as a husband. Stop drinking it, take care of your father's business because it is also yours and your future family." I speak again.
I left in front of him and I knew he would do what I said. If the time comes and they don't even get back together, I know they will learn something.
