Should I Stay or Leave? novel Chapter 45

I was just listening to what he said while I was still sobbing.

"It sounds selfish for a father to that way. I know. But it would not also be good for her to grow up with her parents fighting all the time. I would have wanted for her to grow up knowing Kai, watched them love and play with each other as siblings. But if Catrina and I can't agree on how things should be, then it's not going to happen no matter how hard I try. I left Dubai with the decision of temporarily cutting communications with them. I did this for Catrina to heal and accept that we are not meant for each other. But I hope one day my daughter will understand that."

"What about Catrina? Did she understood that?"

"She was still angry and hurt. Catrina even warned me that she would not let me see my daughter if I leave which I would not contradict. She raised her almost by herself. But I prayed in time she will."

"So, what are you trying to say? That I should just take you back just like that."

"No. I need to earn it. And I will show it to you that I do deserve it."

"I don't know, Acwell. I think I have heard that several times from you."

"But I never showed you. And that is my goal."

"How will you do that?" I asked.

"Leave it to me. It's not for you to worry. All you have to do is give me one more chance. Although I know you have given me more than enough chances, I begged of you to give me another one for the last time," Acwell said.

"I don't know. I find it hard to believe that there will be any difference in our situation."

"There will be, Kamiah. If you could only open yourself for second chances. Catrina and my daughter are far away now. And even if one day they communicate with me or pop all of a sudden here, I already know how to handle them. There will be no secrets between us."

"I'm sorry, but I find it hard to believe that there will be no secrets between us. There had been so many in the past, and some are even still hard to accept."

"I know. But can you just let me do what I intend to do?"

I looked at him and softly say, "Okay."

"Are you working tonight?"

"No."

"Good! Get some sleep. I will take care of Kai. And if ever you wake up early in the afternoon, let's go somewhere."

"Where?"

"I don't know. I am not familiar with the places here, yet. Any suggestions?"
