Flashback
“So…” Blanca’s mother said and she started telling about the incident.
***
While Blanca’s parents were enjoying their lunch at Chick Restaurant, Blanca’s mother suddenly noticed a young couple who looked so intimate. The couple were holding hands and embracing each other.
Then, they walked over and sat down on a bench not far from Blanca’s parents. As usual, the waiter immediately came and brought the menu.
“Is there anything you would like to order?”
The couple immediately mentioned the food that they would like to order. At that moment, Blanca’s mother, who had been watching the couple for a while, immediately sensed that they were Trevor and a young woman she didn’t know.
Blanca’s mother immediately said. “Honey, look! That man looks like Trevor.”
“Which one?” asked Blanca’s father in confusion while he ate his fries.
“That one.” Blanca’s mother glanced at the young couple.
Blanca’s father saw her glance and glanced in the same direction. Blanca’s father paid attention to that direction for a while.
“That’s true what I said, right, Dad? He looks like Trevor.” Blanca’s mother asked Blanca’s father for his opinion.
“Yes, he looks like Trevor,” said Blanca’s father.
“Let’s go in his direction and meet him, Dad, so we will find out for sure!” Blanca’s mother said this while she cleaned the traces of food around her mouth with a tissue.
“Okay.” Blanca’s father accepted the invitation from Blanca’s mother.
He also wiped off the traces of food around his mouth with a tissue. Then, they walked towards the young couple’s bench.
As soon as they were near the young couple, Blanca’s mother called. “Trevor?”
Trevor, who felt called, immediately turned around and found Blanca’s parents there. He felt a little worried about being caught eating with another woman, but he tried to stay calm.
His heart was beating wildly because he was afraid Blanca’s parents would ask him a lot of questions about Louisa. He was also afraid he would be scolded by Blanca’s parents because Blanca’s parents defended their daughter.
But he tried to stay calm and smiled. He said. “Yes, Mrs. and Mr. Rivera.”
“Do you know them?” asked Louisa in confusion.
“Yes. They’re Blanca’s parents.” Trevor answered Louisa’s question.
“Oh. Blanca’s parents.” Louisa nodded her head as she looked at Blanca’s parents from eye to eye.
“Louisa, they’re Blanca’s parents.” Trevor introduced Blanca’s parents.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
“Mrs. and Mr. Rivera, she is Louisa.” Trevor introduced Louisa to Blanca’s parents. Then, Louisa and Blanca’s parents shook hands.
“Trevor’s girlfriend.” Louisa introduced herself as Trevor’s girlfriend.
Hearing that, Blanca’s parents’ eyes bulged as they were confused. Frowns appeared on their foreheads in confusion. They also looked at Trevor with a confused look.
“Trevor, aren’t you my daughter’s boyfriend? How can you be her boyfriend?” asked Blanca’s father.
“I broke up with your daughter. She’s my new girlfriend,” replied Trevor.
“Oh. When?” Blanca’s father just found out that his daughter has broken up with Trevor.
Upon hearing the question, Trevor immediately assumed that Blanca’s parents didn’t know. Therefore, he asked. “Don’t you know?”
“Yes, we don’t know,” Blanca’s parents replied simultaneously while they looked at each other.
“I thought Blanca told you,” said Trevor.
“No, she didn’t. Blanca didn’t tell us,” said Blanca’s mother.
“How come Blanca didn’t tell them, honey? Why didn’t she tell them, honey?” asked Louisa in a spoilt tone as she looked up at Trevor. She gripped Trevor’s hand tightly.
“That’s no wonder they thought that you were having an affair with me. That makes me so ashamed.” Louisa complained.
“I don’t know.” Trevor replied while she looked at Louisa.
“Maybe she doesn’t feel good about telling about it to her parents, or maybe she is finding the best time to tell about it to her parents, Honey, because her parents are really close to me and we’ve already discussed the engagement.” Trevor surmised.
“Is that right, Mrs. Rivera?” asked Trevor.
“Yes, we’re close.” Blanca’s mother agreed.
“But you already broke up with her, so what can we do? Why did you break up with Blanca? How come you didn’t tell me, Trevor?” asked Blanca’s mother.
Trevor immediately felt that it was the right time to tell Blanca’s parents. Trevor immediately said, “Yes, because Blanca is pregnant.”
But before he finished telling her everything, Blanca’s father cut his words off. “She’s pregnant with you. So why did you leave her?”
“What’s the problem?” Blanca’s father felt there was no problem.
“You should have taken responsibility! Instead of breaking up and having an affair behind her like this.” Blanca’s father scolded him in an emotional tone because he was so upset.
“It doesn’t like that. The problem is, we haven’t had sex for a long time, and suddenly yesterday I knew that she was pregnant. That’s so weird!”
“There’s no way she’s pregnant with me because we haven’t had sex for a long time. I’m sure she has an affair behind me with someone else. That’s why she is pregnant.”
Trevor explained the problem.
“Yeah. I agree with you.”
“She has an affair behind you. If she is not having an affair behind you , how can she get pregnant?” Louisa said.
“Blanca can have an affair behind me. So, why can’t I do that?” said Trevor in annoyance.
“Is she the only one who can? “None, right?” asked Trevor again.
“Yes, Sweetheart. You’re precious, and that’s why you do this.” Louisa defended Trevor.
Hearing Trevor’s words, Blanca’s parents immediately lowered their heads because they felt embarrassed. It seemed that they lost their dignity and pride in that place.
“Oh. I see,” said Blanca’s father weakly.
“Yes, Mr. and Mrs. Rivera. It’s not me who cheated on your daughter; it was your daughter who cheated on me, and she is pregnant. I also don’t understand why she cheated on me,” complained Trevor.
“We just found out about it. Thank you for your information!” Blanca’s father thanked.
“Later, we will get mad at her!” said Blanca’s father.
“Okay, Mr. Rivera,” said Trevor.

“So, that’s the story, Blanca.” Blanca’s mother finished telling the story.
