Belong to Me Wicked Lovers 5

"No Benny, you lost that right!"I heard my mother backed at the person on the other side of the line and I knew it had started again, a conversation that always repeats itself.

"You can't deny me from seeing my son!"A cold voice came from the other side of the line, agitated and dry.

I stopped behind the pillar in the living room, eavesdropping on their conversation, the call was on speaker and I could hear the words that came from the other side of the line. It was wrong to eavesdrop, but what else could I do when the conversation was about me.

"If you want to see him then come over."My mother said softly and I knew that what had ruined her was the love she had for that man, this wasn't something a kid of seven years should know but this was something I figured out.

Love makes people weak, it made my mother weak and destroyed her, this was the reason I made up my mind never to fall in love or love someone dearly.

"We have discussed this in court, Jane, so I am going to tell him."He said coldly and his voice held no emotions for this lady, it only felt void and cold, a man my mother has loved and only kept in her heart.

It was amusing to watch when it should be annoying. I looked at my mother who leaned close to the window with her hands on her forehead and tears filled her eyes.

"Aren't you happy with your new wife and kids over there?"She asked as tears rolled down her cheeks. "How would you want to take away the only joy I have left?"

I scoffed at where I stood and clenched my fist. If she loved me she should have listened to me, then there would have been no court hearing and no separation, but she had made love to destroy her this way.

I look at my mother who was a pretty lady, but ever since my father left her she had turned into something else, someone I can barely recognise.

"Robin deserves better."The man said indifferently and I watched my mother's pupils enlarge and I wasn't expecting to see her this shock since this should be a familiar term she had heard always.

"I can not let you take him!"She barked again in anger and tears filled her eyes. This was the only way she could let out her anger, she always ends up crying when she is angry and to me, it makes her weak.

"Do you want another court hearing?"He asked her. "This time you won't see him ever again!"He said coldly and those words seemed to make the air in the room cold and I looked at my mother who has the same fear in her eyes like mine.
