High School: Way to Forever

Sitting in the car, Anna took a deep breath before she could have done anything else. On the other hand, Kiara looked quite happy.

Both of them were finally here where they both are going to meet Alex, especially for this specific day. Although it might make them both afraid on the other hand, Anna knew that this is quite important. 

She can't lie to her daughter anymore and she has to tell everyone that she isn't single and she is already having a daughter, named Kiara!

"Mommy, are we meeting the person you talked about in this cafe?" Anna, who was in a daze, heard Kiara's voice and turned her face to her side.

"Yes, dear. He will come here shortly.. and then we will meet him soon. Are you excited to meet that person?" Anna asked.

"Yeah. You talked so much good about him and that made me even more excited to meet the person, who has so many praises from my mom's mouth." 

"Don't worry, while I Have praise for him, he will have praise for you and you only. Come, let us go." Anna got out of the car with Kiara as they both took their hands into their hands and walked inside the cafe.

This was one of the cafes, belonging to one of her friends so, for her, it was a rest to take that no one else except her and Alex will know about this meet.

After all, days have already passed and Alex only contacted her yesterday, saying that he has something to share with them and, for her, she has to make both of them meet.

"Muma, when will that special person arrive? I'm super excited!" Kiara's excitement level was on the other level. Anna had never imagined that Kiara, who is quite shy in front of everyone, will be so much super excited to meet that person, and how can he disclose that he personally is not anyone else but her father?

"Let us first go to the room. There is a private table arranged for us and it has a view as well. We shall buy you something to eat." 

"Yes! The cupcakes smell so delicious!" Anna knew she would say something like that.

Bringing up in the room, where the view of the city and road was given, she knew that this would be the most perfect place for both Alex and Kiara to meet.

"Kiara, what would you like to eat now?" Anna asked as she was looking through the menu when her phone vibrated and Kiara handed her the phone.

At that time, she received a call from Alex. His cold voice was heard, "Come down. I have something to give to you." 

But hearing this sentence, made her frown. She hadn't expected him to be so rude to her now as well. "Just come. up and give me here. Why do you need me to come down?"

"Come down please." Hearing this, he hung up from the other side which made Anna really angry. She had no idea what to do anymore but with no option left, Anna had to do this.

"Kiara, mum has to go down for a few minutes. I will be back in just a few minutes. will you be alright?" Anna asked Kiara, who nodded her head in return.

"Sure mommy! Don't you see the wonderful view from here! It's so beautiful!" 

"Yes. You enjoy the view and I shall be downstairs. Wait for mommy and do not try to talk to strangers. I shall bring the person you are about to meet." 

Saying this Anna left the room and reached the ground floor of the cafe as she came out to see Alex sitting in his car and indicating to her to come inside.

'Why the hell is he being so secretive? Can't he simply come inside the cafe and tell me?' but she knew that he is a stubborn person and it would be almost impossible for her to say anything to him.

Walking near his car, she knocked on the window. He indicated he to sit inside the car, on the passenger seat and Anna did as he said. 

Sitting beside him, she waited for him to open his mouth but before he could have, she knew that she can't leave Kiara alone for so long. So, to leave the formalities out, she spoke first.

"You could have come inside as well. that would have been much better."

"I wanted to give you a proof first so that you don't hold any grudge against me in any manner. After all, I don't want my special time to be disturbed when I meet my daughter." 

His cold tone was cold more than ever. But then, she looked at his face to find that today he had left his arrogance and rudeness quietly at home. But while talking to her, he is trying to act like a tough guy. 

'Oh, how much I miss that shameless Alex, where we used to talk so freely.' But Anna knew that that time isn't easy to come now.

They have been seperated for so long and it will take both of them time, to ease out this awkwardness from her heart. But only if she will be able to forget and forgive herself.

"I know but.. giving proof inside is also possible. Also, you need not be nervous, she is your daughter and just like you." Anna tried to ease the mood. 

"Just finish this process so that you don't blame me anymore." guessing something, she once again opened her mouth, as her eyebrows were raised.

"Aren't you quite eager to meet her already? A lion meeting his cub."

"Who isn't eager to meet his daughter who is already six years old?"
