Chapter 314: The acceptance
Alanis.
"Father,’’ I repeat, I can’t get over the shock of seeing him here. He is dressed in a black suit. It seems like he just came straight from the office. The expression on his face is different from the one he usually has. The confidence, pride. It seems to be gone at this moment. I don’t know why he is here but it seems like Darrien knows.
"Hello son,’’ he smiles nervously.
Why is he nervous?
Sheesh, I have too many questions but I can’t leave him standing out here. This is the first time; he has made an attempt to get to know this side of me. he was never accepting of it all and now he is here—in the community.
"Come in,’’ I give him space to enter and he nods his head. Our walk back to the house is quiet. I don’t know what to say, I don’t want to say the wrong things. I want this visit to go as smoothly as it can. I want him to leave here understanding me.
Father is walking next to me, but I glare at Darrien, who just chuckles in amusement. We get to the house and I lead him to the living room. The one for visitors, not the one for meetings. He sits down on one of the chairs in the middle space. He looks calm now, almost like he has done some mental preparation. "Can I get you anything to drink,’’ I know the only thing he would want is blood.
He raises a brow "Do you still drink blood or have you lost that part of yourself?’’ he asks, I sense the snide tone in his question. I have hopes that he is here to make things right. I mean, that is the only reason why he would be at my house.
"I do. Should I get some for you?’’ I ask him.
Darrien walks over to the chairs and takes a seat opposite him. I follow him because I would rather be close to Darrien right now. "No, I came here to talk.’’
I nod as I sit down.
"I heard about your ordeal,’’ he mutters.
I frown because he is back to being the jerk, he has been all this while "What ordeal would that be?’’ I ask him curiously.
I know he is talking about the pregnancy and I will not have anyone backlash the gift of the lives inside me. I might have my fears and I might have said and thought some awful things but they are my babies and no one is allowed to talk about them as anything but a blessing.
"Eligio told me, at first I didn’t know how to handle it but I spoke to Darrien and I think I can come to accept it all.’’
I look at Darrien and he smiles. I knew he knew about this. he was acting too suspicious.
"What do you mean by accepting it?’’
He shrugs "This is very hard for me. I have so much worry that things would go wrong for you. this is a big deal. The dynamics of it all don’t seem right but I want to be supportive. I want to be the man I have always been. The one that found you in that hospital. The one that vowed to take care of you for as long as I am alive."
My heart thuds in my chest at his words. he is saying a lot and I am trying to process it all. This is all I have wanted. His acceptance. I wanted him to accept Beau so badly and he is seated in front of me, telling me that he is ready to accept it all. I don’t know how to react right now.
I remain silent as I try to think of words to say "Oh, good thing father. Cause I just heard that the same thing might happen to me." Darrien decides to be the buffer. Somehow, that is his attempt at lightening the mood.
I look at father and he opens his eyes wide "What?’’
Darrien laughs "Apparently, you might be a double grandfather.’’ He giggles and I hit him on his chest to stop him from spewing nonsense.
I turn back to my father and he looks at me at the same time "I don’t know what to say. I have wanted this moment since I met Beau. I wanted your approval so badly.’’
He smiles "You have it.’’ he stands up from the couch and I do the same. My heart is doing this happy dance and I can’t wait to tell Beau about this. he and a couple of the members from the pack went hunting. He should be back in about two hours. These days, he has been spending a lot of time hunting. Hunting makes him stronger and he says he wants to be the strongest he can be to protect his babies. The fact that Fallon is locked up right now, under thorough eyes, he has been able to focus on other things. He has been able to focus on the pack and making things better.
"I don’t know how to react to this. I appreciate this so much,’’ I cry. I am at a loss for words. things seem to be taking a turn for the better. I don’t have to worry about anything but making sure the delivery of my babies goes smooth, without a hitch.
"You don’t have to say, anything son. I should be the one apologizing."
I shake my head "You had every right to be worried. I didn’t expect you to accept this so easily. It’s not your fault,’’— "don’t say that I am your father. I should accept you no matter what."
My heart dances even more.
This is a lot.
I am at a place of bliss.
"Can we still have that dinner? The one with Beau?’’ he asks.
My eyes open wide from the shock and excitement. This will mean as much to Beau as it does to me. he knows how much I wanted this; he will be as happy as I am at this moment.
"I would like that father."
All is right with the world.
