Chapter 22: Mom, He Likes You

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Mike’s perspective

I couldn’t take it anymore. How could this stupid woman say such a thing about a child who meant no harm to her? Melanda was so friendly to her and had never hurt her, but she actually said that about her! I didn’t

know why I dated such a woman for so long.

My anger shocked everyone present. Hannah looked at me with wide eyes, then turned and ran upstairs. After a while, she took her things downstairs. It was really over.

I sat at the kitchen bar with my head in my hands. Mom looked at me worriedly. “Baby, are you okay? I’m glad you made this decision. I don’t like Hannah at all. She only loves herself. But why are you so angry?”

Yes, why was I so angry? What finally aroused my anger?

“She shouldn’t have said that about Melanda and Millie.”

“Oh, you’re this angry because she said something bad about Melanda,” Mom repeated my words thoughtfully.

“Mom, I…” I was conflicted and didn’t know whether to say it or not.

“Mike, dear child, say what you want to say.” Mom seemed to see through my thoughts.

“Actually, I’ve always loved Melanda. I’ve loved her a long time,” I finally said the secret.

“What? Are you serious?” Mom seemed excited.

“Yes, Mom, it started when I was in middle school. But I felt like Melanda only treated me like a brother. I was afraid to say it. She was so shy, so I was afraid to scare her or lose her. Then she disappeared, and I was

extremely sad. I thought my love for her was in the past. When I saw her again, I realized I couldn’t control my love anymore. I wanted to see her all the time, so I couldn’t stand to hear Hannah defaming her either.” I

blurted everything out.

“That’s great, baby. You finally realized for feelings for Melanda. That’s great. Melanda is such a good child. She deserves to be treated with sincerity.” Mom’s eyes were filled with tears, but she smiled and said, “So,

what are you going to do next?”

“I… Idon’t know either.” This gave me a headache.

“Baby, I have a suggestion. Give yourself some time, and give Melanda some time too. There’s no hurry. But you have to be brave. Don’t let Melanda go again, okay? This child has suffered too much,” Mom said very

seriously, and I nodded very seriously.

“Now, go upstairs and get a good sleep.”

Melanda’s POV

After Mike left, 1 composed myself in the room again before returning to the living room.

t’s time to move on. Melanda, you have to move on.” | encouraged myself. “Mike has his own life. It’s a good thing you didn’t reveal the truth just now. Otherwise, it would have troubled him, and that’s the last thing

ou want to do.”

As soon as Millie saw me, she ran over and hugged me. “Mom, what’s wrong?”

“I’m fine, baby. Can you tell Mom why you called Mike Daddy?”

Because I like him. He likes me, too.”

But you can’t call someone ‘Daddy’ just because you like him.” I was rendered speechless by this reason.

But I look like him, don’t I?”

It turned out that the child knew it very well. Uncle Mike, who cared for her and loved her, looked similar to her too so she wondered if he was her dad. I didn’t know how to answer her.

“Mom, why can’t Uncle Mike be my father?” She seemed to be having a hard time moving past the topic.

I took her in my arms and whispered, “Baby, Uncle Mike has his own life. He’s going to propose to Hannah soon. They’ll get married soon.”

“No, he won’t marry Hannah.” Millie was getting more and more serious.

“Why? Why do you say that?” My mom joined in.

“Because Uncle Mike likes you,” Millie said with a serious expression. Her serious demeanor amused me.

“How do you know Uncle Mike likes your mom?” My mom asked.

“Because Uncle Mike kept staring at Mom. He didn’t even look at Hannah.” Sigh, children were observant too.

“He likes me just because he stares at me?” I couldn’t help but ask.

“Yes, because Mom looks at Uncle Mike like that too.” Um, it seemed like I was asking for trouble. It turned out that I couldn’t even hide my feelings from kids.

At this moment, my phone rang. It was an unknown number.

“Hello.”

“Hi, Melanda. I’m Leo.”

“Oh, it’s you, Leo. Hi, what’s up?”

“Melanda, if you have nothing on tonight, I want to treat you to dinner. Can I?”

“Yes, you can.” I should move on, shouldn’t I? I was going to give myself a chance.

“That’s great. I’ll pick you up at your house at 6 p.m.”

“Okay, see you later.”

After hanging up, I saw Mom and Millie both looking at me. “It’s my colleague, Leo. He asked me to dinner. I agreed.”

“That’s great, baby. You should have a life of your own.” Mom looked happy for me.

“But, Mom, if you date another man, what about Dad?” Millie looked unhappy..
