Blake Coster

I slide my hand around me to find someone that I always want to see the first thing in the morning but I feel nothing. I opened my eyes to see an empty bed.

Maybe she's cooking.. I quickly go downstairs

"Jean" I called and walked to the kitchen and find it empty too

"Good morning sir , Jean already left to work" Romina said and I can't help but dissapointed that she didn't wake me up to say goodbye.

"Okay" I said and went back upstairs to get ready to work. Suddenly I have the urge to check my phone , she message me

I'm off to work

She said and send a couple of photos us together yesterday. I smiled and freshen up myself by taking a shower. I quickly take my suit and wear it. Walking down and take my car , I drove to my office.

"Good morning Mr. Coster" My secretary said

"Sir there's Mr. Samuel at your office" She added

"Why is Aaron here?"

"Uhmm sir , it's not Aaron" She said and I turned to her as I entered the lift.

"Which Samuel is it then?"

"Your father" That make my emotion got burn , I'm furious. I walked out from the lift and walked to my office room immediately.

I saw the man that I hate the most sitting on the couch looking weak. I can't believe what my eyes saw. His wrinkles are everywhere , his eyes become soft and he looked weak.

"Hello Blake"

"Why are you here?" I said coldly

"Aren't you going to give your dad a hug son?" He stands up and walked to me

"My dad died 10 years ago" I glared at him

"I'm sorry Blake" He suddenly said and it make me turn to him

"Get out from my office" I said coldly

"Blake , let's talk"

"Don't call me" I got furious and his face softens

"Let's talk Blake"

"Go now or I call the security to take you away" I warned and he took a big brown envelope from the sofa. He walked to my desk and put it in front of me

"Go-"

"Blake!" Suddenly my mom bursted into my office and I looked at them both. I looked at my mom disbelief

"What are you doing here mom?" I asked my mom who is walking to Declan

"Blake talk to your dad" She said and that make me looked away from the both

"Get out Declan!" I said one more time

"Blake!" My mom scolded me like 10 years old boy

"Why do you defend this bastard mom? Why? All he did is hurting you and now you defend him instead your son?" I bursted to my mom

"Let me talk alone with him Adeline" Declan said

"Get out Declan , you-"

"Blake Coster Samuel!" My mom bursted by saying my full name and it makes me glare at her

"It's okay Adeline" Declan said and then he walked closer to me

"Blake , inside that envelope what you want. You don't need to get married to get your granddad's heritage. Inside that envelope , there's my number and please think about it. I want to talk to you Blake , I'm in New York now" My so called dad looked into my eyes and I looked away

"Please talk to me when you're ready Blake and please don't change your name into Coster. It's enough for 10 years Blake. I'm sorry" Declan make his way out from my office and my mom looked at me with a sad eyes

"You still love him?" I asked stupidly

"Yes Blake" My mom answered and I laughed dryly

"Love is bullshit mom! It never exist" I bursted and punched my glass window causing it to crack

"Blake , forgive him please"

"Never mom"

"Blake he's dying!" That make me turn to her and my eyes widen

"I don't care , let him die!"

"Blake please" My mom walked to me slowly and hold my hand

"I know there's a tiny space in your heart that you still love him Blake , he's your father" My mom pointed at my chest and I sighed

"Blake , please stop this. Where is my lovely Blake?" She begged

"Mom please , let him die. He always hurt you and why you always forgive him?"

"It's called Love , Blake" She looked into my eyes and I looked away

"Love doesn't exist mom"

"It does Blake and one day you will realise how Love does to you Blake" She smiled and let go of my hand

"Think about it Blake , talk to him. He misses you" My mom said as she walked out from my office. I'm frustrated now and I can't help but wanting to call my energy pill.

I opened my phone and try to called Jean.

Why isn't she answering? I called her a few times but she doesn't answer it.

I decided that I need a drink , I walked downstairs and got inside my car. I drived to the usual bar and got into the private room.

Suddenly someone called me , it's Aaron.

"What Aaron?" I snapped him

"Where are you now Blake?"

"At usual club" I answered as I sipped my 2 bottle

"I heard the news" He said

"Yeah"

"Want me to company you?" He asked

"No thanks , I wanted to be alone now" I said and hung up his phone. Suddenly I have the urge to drive around with a high speed , I walked out from the bar.

As I pressed my car keys , someone caught my eyes.

"Alexis" I called her as I saw her entering a cake shop , she turned to me. I walked to her

"What are you doing here?" I asked her and she looked at me weirdly

"What do you mean 'what are you doing here?' ?" She asked and now I'm the one who confuse

"Jean said that she's working with you guys to Paris" I said and she looked at me with wide eyes

"What do you mean she went to Paris? She told me that she's goi- oh shoot" She looked at me in horror

"What?"

"Oh shit Blake"
