✰[CHILDHOOD SWEETHEARTS]✰
BERLIN, GERMANY**
15 YEARS AGO**
“I mean, look at his body? Who does this in this 21st century?? Domestic violence on a little kid?? A kid of just 7 years old? C’mon, Mr Ricardo. I suppose you can talk to your wife better. This isn’t the first or second time and we are sure this won’t be the last” Mrs Doris, the minister of humanitarian spoke with sorrow and anger.
Ricardo sighed as his misty sad eyes continued to scan little Jayden’s body which had red marks and blisters.
“Jayden- He muttered and touched his shoulder.
“Oww” Jayden whimpered, painfully.
“It hurts so much, fath- He paused halfway as tears ran down his eyes.
“What’s it Jayden??” Ricardo quickly asked.
“Talk to me, please” He added, hurtfully.
“She told me to stop calling you father. You aren’t my father” Jayden said, sadly.
“You’re my son. I, being the only brother and sibling to your late mum, makes me a close family to you. Hence, I’m your father and you ought to call me that”
“And then, she will maltreat me again. And John will laugh at me with scorn. I don’t want that,,, sir” He had fear in his voice.
“Mr Ricardo? Should I grant an apeal for your wife’s release?” Mrs Doris asked.
“I’m sorry, ma’am but please, do so. I promise to talk to her and make her amend her ways. I’ve been a bad husband lteoy” Ricardo said.
Mra Doris sighed.
“Okay then. I’ll contact the DPO” She said and walked out of the ward.
THAT SAME DAY, NIGHT**
“I’m sorry. I’m really sorry. Please, Please…Forgive me. I swear!! I promise!! I won’t ever…ever hurt him again” Agatha begged with tears running down her eyes.
She was on her knees, rubbing hed palms together, begging and crying like there was no tomorrow for her.
“I’ve had enough!! Let’s divorce!!” He barked.
“No, please! It was the devil”
“Shut up! You’re the devil itself!”
“John!! John…For the sake of your son, please!!” She cried out.
John was crying also.
“I’m sorry father. I promise to change” He uttered.
“You’re a wicked woman, you know. I pleaded with you to take Jayden as your son, so why all thus, huh!!! Are you doing all this cause he’s an orphan? Don’t forget you were one too and you were treated well”
“Ricardo…I’m begging. I won’t do it ever again. Please! I’m sorry”
Ricardo sighed and squatted.
“Go to h*ll” He spat.
“If it happens again, divorce me! Drive me out of your place! Pleaseeee”
“You’re one terrible negotiator” He whispered.
“Huh?”
“I noticed why you’ve been doing this”
Agatha sniffed.
“You’re jealous cause you thought I only give Jayden love and care. If only you opened your eyes to see! To see that…I also shower care, bliss and love on our son too. You’re just too blind to see that or maybe your sight were occupied on how well I treated Jayden instead”
“Ri…Ricardo. I’m so…sorry. I’m…really sorry. None…none of this will ever happen again. I’ll treat Jayden right. He won’t get hurt ever again”
“If so, we need negotiate right”
“How?” She swallowed.
“If you hurt Jayden ever again, I won’t only divorce you but…I’ll disown John”
“What! No!…Ah..Why…why would you drag the innocent kid into my mess?? Why!”
“Wow. Now I see, you are gonna maltreat Jayden again. I don’t smell confidence. I don’t smell change!” He yelled to her face.
Ricardo was doing all this to thr_@ten her. Maybe saying all this would put fear in her mind.
And for the sake of John, she wouldn’t have to hurt Jayden. She would just stay low. So, as he thought.
“I guess you aren’t ready. Move out!” He got on his feet.
He was about to turn against her when she suddenly grabbed his left leg. She laid down, wailing.
“Okay. Okay. I will. I will stop. I won’t hurt him. I’ll…take the negotiation” She Mõ@ɲed, sadly.
“Good. Now, look at me”
She slowly raised her red sore face to him.
“Apologize to him” Ricardo said, bringing a shaky and timid Jayden to her face.
“I should…what?”
“Apologize!!!”
She swallowed twice and slowly took her blinking eyes to Jayden.
“Jay…Jayden,,, I’m…I’m sorry”
“Is that all??!” He shouted.
“Jayden…Jayden…Forgive me. Forgive your poor mother. please!” She cried out.
“She won’t repeat it again. I promise. Please, forgive me. I’m sorry…Pardon me” She begged like she was insane.
Jayden said nothing.
Ricardo scoffed, in mockery.
Agatha looked at Jayden who gave her a taunting smirk on his smuggish sly face.
“What…are you doing?” She muttered, almost speechless.
“What do you mean?” Ricardo asked.
“He just- Agatha paused to see Jayden’s face back to the former.
Her eyes blinked, thinking she had seen wrong.
Jayden wouldn’t deny. He felt so good watching the heartless woman beg and bow before him.
“Jayden? Please, forgive my mother. I promise to be nice to you” John sobbed.
Ricardo sighed and looked at Jayden.
“Your wish is my command. What do you want? Do you want to her to stay or leave? Do you forgive her or not??”
Jayden looked at Agatha and gave her that smirk and smug again.
Her eyes widened. She didn’t see wrong.
That little rat!
Her fist clenched tightly and strongly.
“I hope you won’t do it again” He said.
Agatha forced a smile and nodded.
“I promise”
Jayden took his eyes to Ricardo who gave him a warm smile.
“Dad” He called.
Ricardo smiled widely hearing ‘Dad’
“Talk to me.son” He replied.
Agatha bit her lip trying to remain calm. She was getting furious and envious and Jayden was sure triggering it right. He wasn’t smart for nothing.
“I forgive her. Pardon her. But when she hurts me again, you are allowed to do your worst”
Agatha’s heart skipped instantly.
